    IPv6

    Recently, TWC has decided that residential multiple IP's are not going to happen. I had this service on my account (free with the internet service I have). I called up to see why a second firewall was not pulling an IP and they removed the service from my account and said "going forward, we...

    Thanks Ultima. I used isotousb right before your post. Seems the program is the issue. Imgburn is limited.

    .iso extraction issue

    When I use imgburn to create a .iso file from a disc that is bootable, I get the .iso AND a 5k additional file. (layer info?) When I try to use the Windows 7 USB tool to put that .iso onto a flash drive, I get an error that says the .iso file (big one) is not valid. How do I get around this?

    Play Call of Duty: Ghosts for Free This Weekend

    I ended up buying the game, but I can't get more than 10 minutes into it without it crashing. I've downloaded and installed the latest beta drivers and have only changed the quality setting to normal from low. Crashes every time. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

    Trouble with Eyefinity

    rtangwai, you were right. I found that feature in the CCC. I feel much better now! Now since I had to disable crossfire on the second card to make that 3rd display work before I upgraded, if I enable crossfire again, will I break my current settings?

    Trouble with Eyefinity

    I have tried running the 3rd monitor on the primary via HDMI. It won't recognize in Windows as a desktop to extend to. Does it have to be mini Display Port connected?

    Windows 8 RDP issues

    Okay, I have checked my Win 8 PC and it did indeed have the RASMAN service stopped. I set it to automatic, rebooted and voila! -Something changed all of them on this network, and it wasn't me. :) No idea. I checked my Windows Updates and found that I am getting the Windows Defender updates...

    Windows 8 RDP issues

    It's a workgroup environment, no AD. You make a good point on the firewall though. The issue I have now is that I am trying to set up and install a Hyper-V 2012 server (not server 2012) and the way you configure it is to connect via RDP, no local GUI. So, I need to find a way to remotely...

    Windows 8 RDP issues

    I think I got it. The service Remote Desktop Connection Manager has been changed to Manual startup instead of Automatic like on my Win 7 PC's. Obviously, you have to do this locally, so I'll have to test it later.

    Sonicwall WLAN to LAN help

    I've had a chance to look over the posts and then my Sonicwall. The rules won't let me create a new LAN to WLAN, it says that the new rule overlaps another. It must see that rule as both ways, possibly indicated with the up and down arrows in the rule itself. Also, the DNS in the DHCP scope...

    Black reproduction

    I have a Dell 30" TFT display that is beautiful. I love it but I want to get an LED 27" screen. I recently tried a 24" LED TN display and was horribly disappointed. The black level in gaming was a very dark green, and the gradiants were not reproduced well at all. I was able to see black...

    Trying to install Win Server 2008R2 or 2012

    Ah, the times have changed, and didn't even know it. I have been burning Window's ISO's to DVD. Guess what the 2800 doesn't have? A DVD-rom. I have a server that sits right above the 2800 that the rail is broken on, thus hiding the light from the facia of the cd-rom. So, anyone who has...

    Trying to install Win Server 2008R2 or 2012

    I did try the Dell Open Manage software and the only option that it gave me during the install was to put in the Server 2003 disc. I also tried the R2 drivers and the installation screen that prompts for drivers could not find them on a USB drive. I read somewhere that the issue might be that...
