Yes, the part #6140063500G I mentioned above worked perfectly. Now I have sound through my monitor, although admittedly it kind of sounds like crap. But it's better than nothing.

I would have guessed they'd move the 2000 and 3000 series cards to legacy but the 4000s? Some of the cards in the 4000 line had product in the retail channel 3 years ago. What is the limitation of the 4000 series that keeps it from playing with the 5000s and up?

I just bought one on eBay for $7.32 + sales tax + shipping, ($10.03 total) we'll see what happens.

You need DVI to HDMI dongle ATI/AMD part#6140063500G to make it work, apparently.

So I am SOL then since my monitor doesn't have a DVI input, only HDMI and VGA? I'll see what I can find on Google.

Hi, I am trying to use the integrated sound in my monitor but not having much luck. Specs are as in title, it's a Sapphire 4850 btw. I am using a DVI to HDMI converter on the back of the card, which I then plug my HDMI cable into that runs to the W2207h. I have the latest Catalyst drivers...

whew, I have 17TB to back up. $.90/GB?? I'm keeping my tape library and SATA arrays, way cheaper. $.90/GB would cost me $183,600 per year. At that point, the ROI on CommVault or NetBackup is in weeks, not months.

I've narrowed the problem down to the BIND secondaries, for sure. Unfortunately, I don't have access to those servers because they are run by an outsourced service provider. The service provider does not know what to do and is sort of throwing up his hands. I think we are going to bring up...

RDP over VPN is a lot safer than opening up actual CIFS/SMB file sharing and direct database access, etc to VPN users. You can't control end user's home workstations without investing in some sort of NAC which is expensive, so RDP is a good way to allow access at a low risk level. Users remote...

That's quite a lot of 8 port switches you have there! My preference would be to just wire the whole thing from a couple of chassis switches, given that you have stated distances <100m. But big switches cost $$$.

But that's what I *don't* want it to do, is add any sort of suffix for sites that are not on the local domain.

It appears the problem must be in BIND as when I do nslookups directly against the BIND servers there are significant delays or timeouts. Firewall is an ASA.

I was looking through the DNS log in Windows and it seems that it's trying to append the local DNS suffix to some of it's queries. For example www.hardforum.com.xxxxx.local. Hmm.

I have a problem where recursive DNS lookups are taking a long time. My setup is, Windows/Active Directory DNS on the internal network, and BIND forwarders on the DMZ. The Windows hosts resolve internal queries themselves, and for things not on the local network (DMZ or Internet) they do...

Thanks, that worked!!! Can't believe I missed that setting. I feel like such a dolt! Oh well. Now, to install a LinuxVM :D

I can't find any options in the BIOS on this HP machine for enabling virtualization support. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Hyper-V but I got the same results. "Either VMX not present or not enabled in BIOS". UGHHHHhhhhhh. wonder if there's any 3rd party BIOS available for this...

I'm trying to install Hyper-V on Server 2008 R2, but not having much success. In order to get around the requirement that all server OS's go through our outsourcing contractor, I am trying to build a Hyper-V setup on a desktop. This is necessary to support some development efforts, we are...

I found the solution on Monday: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2466753 The 2008R2 RTM build won't work on this particular hardware with RAID enabled and it's a known issue. I was able to get a 2008R2 SP1 .iso from MS as we are a Software Assurance customer. Installing it from that build...

Yes, I erased all partitions from the drive before attempting the install. I would think a 1TB mirror would be plenty to install WS2008R2.

Hi, I am trying to install Windows Server 2008 R2 on a HP Compaq 8100 Elite Small Form Factor. It has a Core i5-760 installed with 16GB of RAM and 2 1TB WD Green drives installed in it. I can go into the BIOS and change the SATA type from AHCI to RAID, and then access the RAID Setup during...

he can render HD video with a 4350 and they are cheap and fanless. http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.aspx?i=3420

It's a basic single core Athlon with only 1GB of RAM and XP Home, but hey it's a computer with a 20" monitor for less than $300. Oh yeah and free shipping! http://www.buy.com/prod/Acer-eMachines-EL1300G-02w-w-20-Inch-Widescreen-LCD-Desktop-AMD-Athlon/q/loc/101/213484144.html?adid=17992 For...

they want my DOB and ph# and it's not SSL?? no thanks!!

Interesting, but how much noise does it make? And what the heck is a UIDIMM? The additional 2GB of RAM to get to 4GB is $70, optical drive $30. Hmm. That's not so hot. I think this would be a good deal for myself but not so good for my friend.

OK, so here's a $449 Acer with a 20" http://www.frys.com/product/6059158?site=sa:PC%20Computer%20Pod:Pod1 wonder if she'll be happy with 20"? She's got a 15" 4:3 flat panel now. 20" widescreen will be huge comparatively.

I'm looking to assist a friend with a PC purchase. She wants to buy now that Windows 7 is out. Seems that all the deals on slickdeals are dead, they did have a Dell with a 24" for $484 shipped but it's dead. Desired specs: Major brand name vendor - I'm not going to build one for her, no...

Sweet project. I am also curious to see about the case. I assume something WWII related considering it's from 1940.

what is the overclocking potential of this setup? bump!

SPF, Sender Policy Framework is available now and is somewhat useful.

Why would a university not have either software assurance or a campus agreement? Both would allow you to run any version of Windows that you saw fit, and with the educational discount it's dirt arse cheap.

Me too, so what's your point? I didn't realize we had to account for our activities all the way back to the time before Nvidia and ATI being the duopoly they are today. I'll see your 3dfx and raise you a Number Nine Vesa Local Bus card. Or maybe an S3 Trident 2MB ISA VGA card. I think it...

I've never owned anything but Nvidia cards until my current 4850. I'm really happy with this card. I have tweaked the fan speeds to lower the GPU temps but that's it.

You need to upgrade your RAM, 1GB is not enough to run Vista IMO. You'll be happier with 2GB, 4GB is ideal and the most that the Slimlines can support. The OS will only see about 3.25 GB of it though.

Yes, we only allow remote desktop over my organization's VPN. This neatly avoids issues with remote file access. We allow remote desktop to desktops or servers, based on your access level. Most people just hit their desktops only. Of course this requires leaving the PC's on all the time...

They would not pass audit in our environment. Full stop. Our audit requires N or N-1 versions of software.

it's pretty easy if the router is supported. Even the TFTP method is not hard. I did one the other day when the thing didn't work out the way the idiot Fry's sales people said it would. I just enabled the TFTP server in Windows 7 on my laptop, set a static IP, and sent it to the outside...

Fail. You did not comprehend what I posted. XP will never get close to utilizing 4GB unless you're running multiple virtual machines. For most users there's no need for anything beyond 2. I have a dual boot setup with 5GB at work, XP sees 3.25 but never uses more than a GB under any...

I agree with this poster. If I was building a basic system I would go with one from a major oem on sale. Couple weeks ago you could get a Dell system with a 21.5 monitor for about your quoted price budget. Can't beat that. Also, if you are running XP, why in the world are you getting 4GB...
