I have a nephew who has been bitten by the "amazingness" of PC's vs. a console. He has found this game client called Steam, you may have heard of it, and is now *hooked*. Unfortunately, the laptop he is playing on is not up for the challenge to run these games at even satisfactory levels. He...

Anyone ever used GetCertified4Less.com to obtain vouchers for their certifications? I've always been able to take advantage of student discounts for vouchers/tests, but CompTIA doesn't offer such promotions (I know, I know...it's a mediocre, at best, cert). Going with the site above I can save...

I've been doing some research online for a new laptop for my wife, but there are so many options out there with so many different reviews it's hard to find the right one. Purpose: Web browsing & research Word/Excel processing (I have an unused Office2013 license) Requirements: Power...

Hey all, I'm *trying* to use AJAX to update/reload a DIV on a page, but I'm running into a snag. Bare with me, JS is very new to me. I have a a PHP page that creates a table of form cells. The cells are populated with data that comes from a SQL database. When I click on a cell and change...

I'm trying to parse XML information from an Nmap scan, but I'm a little stuck. What I'd like to get is the IP address, open port, and OS. I know a fair amount of bash scripting as well as Java (although I really am not a fan) but am unsure how to go about tackling this project...

*Cliffs at the bottom Windows 8 and my signature rig have been having some major issues these past few weeks. In October I purchased an 128gb Samsung 830 which I put a copy of Windows8 on. For weeks on end it would be working flawlessly. At this point I was putting my computer to sleep every...

My old 9600GT died in my spare computer that is used for LANing with friends (mostly playing SC2). The PC is running a E8400 non-OCed processor and doesn't have the best PSU (can't remember off hand what it is ~500W). The resolution is 1280x1024. I was hoping to do this for less than $50...

Anyone know if one can take a PDF document, such as this example and turn it into a MS Word document. I realize this can be done the opposite way, by converting a Word document into a PDF and making it fillable PDF, but is it possible to "undo" a fillable form once it is created? Reason...

I have a friend who owns a small law firm, and he is trying to come up with a VPN solution to his office while he is at home or mobile. I'm not super knowledgeable in this particular field, but after doing some research I told him he might have good luck with the Cisco RV110W router which has...

I'm in need of a 2TB+ external HDD. There are some decent reviews on the WD My Book Essential & Passport, but I'm wondering if there is a better option out there for roughly the same price. I'm not partial to any particular brand/manufacturer. Are there any other good options out there for...

I am working on a program in java that performs a series of calculations then once finished asks a user to either quit performing these tasks or perform the calculations again. Using a sentinel I wanted the user to enter a 1 or 2 to make their choice. A sample code is as follows: import...

So I have a Jailbroken iPhone 3GS on iOS 4.0 and am having some issues with that have supposedly been fixed in newer versions. I'm thinking of upgrading to v5.1 but before I do I'm curious to know if I can downgrade, or revert, back to version 4.x. I have the SHSH saved for what seems like...

I'm having an issue with Java and the .newLine method. I have a very simple program that asks for employee information (first/last name and monthly salary) for 2 employee objects. When I prompt for the first employee using: // **Employee1 Inputs** System.out.print("Please enter...

So the wife has a Facebook and uses the app on her Samsung Infuse 4G. She tells me that when she posts some status update that her current location is posted as well. This seems so odd/stupid to me, but whatever....this thread isn't about the reasons why I don't have a Facebook. So after...

It has been a while since I've done any folding, roughly a year. I'd like to pick up where I left off and start messing with the SMP units, however I'm not sure if that is going to work out, hence me asking before I get into something I shouldn't. My PC normally sleeps while I'm out of the...

Alright so my grandparents had a Sony (possibly a Bravia?) die a few days ago and are now in need of a replacement. They are 80 years old and need a TV with a very large viewing angle. Basically, that is the biggest factor in this TV purchase. I know absolutely nothing about TV's (plasma...

Anyone else use their SIP Trunking services? Luckly it was only down for about 30 mintues, but in that 30 minutes, man, was I scrambling to get our failover online. What a pain.

A friend of mine brought me an old HP computer that apparently wasn't displaying the video. My first thought: the video card was dead since the monitor was asking for an input signal error. In any attempt, I decided to pull the card and reseat it. Zero results. Then, since I remembered my...

Found this game on technet after looking over the latest Windows 7 Ent. Deployment strategies. It is very well done. Microsoft Presents: Are you Certifiable? I managed to score a 14/20...And I'll admit, 2 or 3 were just guesses. Good thing I haven't signed up for the 70-680/850 yet...

This isn't really a huge deal, but I want to make sure my points are being counted and still going to [H]. I've been a casual folder for the past few months, as I feel its worth contributing to the forum because I lurk on it daily (It's the least I could do, right?). Unfortunately I cannot put...

So an employee here at the office brings me his personal [home] desktop and embarrassedly asks me to assist in the aid of cleaning it, since he couldn't gain connectivity. Just to see the animal I'm working with, I booted her up offline and was greeted with...well, the desktop was just to...
