I found a great one from Microsoft TechNet http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx Really awesome stuff. Good luck!

Something like a file system monitor. Say I install, for a perfect example, .NET 3.5, and I want to see where all of the files were actually placed. This app would ideally just go "ok, all the recently installed files on the filesystem are in this location" and I could see where everything went...

Is that it? :D I'm glad I asked! I feel so much better!

If there is one thing that gets me about MS stuff is that it's spread out EVERYWHERE. I know that when I write a Java program, everything that is Java is in C:\program files\java. I know that with python, everything that is python is in C:\python (This is my drive I'm talking about). But what IS...

So is that blue CD just a stock CD then? It installs nothing but XP SP2? Or what..I can't read it very well.

For instance, if I buy a Vostro 1500 with XP Professional, will I get an actual XP Pro CD? Or will I get some sort of Dell CD where I follow some convoluted process and then I end up with XP Pro on my laptop? Simplified, is the XP CD pure or is it a Dell hybrid thing? Thanks Looking...

I just got a DS Lite as part of a trade and I'm not sure what to do with it. I'm not interested in any of the top 10 DS games at 1up.com which I think is a bad sign. What else can I do with my DS? Any ideas? Even things very far from gaming but still utilizing the DS would be cool.

I'd like to virtualize Windows for a variety of reasons. What's a good way to start with that? I'm used to using the Microsoft VM but that's clearly not an option at the moment. Thanks!

Well I ended up using JCreator for now. As an example of what I'm looking for, has anyone ever used Geany? You just hit "compile" and it compiles the text files you are working on and runs them. That's all it does and it's great. Maybe I'll just code in Linux..

Anything else?

Something like a fully integrated IDE but I don't need all those features. I'd like tabbed browsing and all I want is a button that compiles all the files I'm working on and runs one. Is there anything simple like that or do I have to get a big ole IDE? I'm working with Java. I know eclipse...

I managed to get my hands on a wall charger and it works just fine now. I must have managed to continually pick non-powered USB ports =/

Good to know. Thanks for the prompt reply. Based on what you said I think it's the iPod that won't charge. Is that bad? It seems like it. I was just using my iPod the other day. I let it run till it turned off (probably where I made my mistake) and now it won't charge. =(

My iPod refuses to charge via USB. I don't have iTunes installed nor do I have the iPod software installed. All I have is Anapod. I plug my iPod in via USB and it just doesn't charge at all. It'll just sit there with an apple on the screen until kingdom come. What gives?

Deleting the registry entries didn't work =/ I found them all where you told me and deleted all of them that had to do with iTunes and iPod, but all 3 entries are still in the add/remove programs list. Any more ideas before I install that program? Thanks

Well before I do that, where is the file that it is trying to run when I try to remove it. Somewhere there is still an actual uninstall program lying around being useless. If I just remove the registry key (which I'll do if nobody can help me here) then I'm just hiding the fact that the...

I uninstalled iTunes and all my iPod updaters. There is NO trace of these programs anywhere. And yet, when I go to add/remove programs, they are still there. When I try to remove them it just opens up the installer, pretends to uninstall, and then stays there. I tried to run CCleaner to...

Some sort of software that tells me whenever a folder/file is created or when a registry value is added/modified/deleted. Something like that? Some sort of background app..maybe pops up a window or an alert when one of the above things happened.

I love how, years after, people are looking back on Doom 3 really kindly. I loved it when it came out but it was much more popular to hate on Doom 3 back then than to love it. Glad to see things are changing :)

I know a long time ago Gamespy was the best software to find servers. Then ASE (All-Seeing Eye) was really good. What do people use now?

Things of that nature. Any alternatives?

I have many things up for sale / trade. I live in Atlanta just in case shipping can be avoided. All listed prices are before S&H. Just let me know what you have for trade..never know I might be interested. you can e-mail me at [email protected] 1.) DJ GEAR -- 2x...

Got a few bites..would prefer a trade

I just got some new capacitors put on it and it now boots, but there are some specks on the screen during startup, the fan doesn't spin, and I couldn't get Warcraft III to start. If you're feeling lucky, I'll consider any offer. I'm looking for around $40+ plus or trade Thanks

That doesnt work. I set it to send to playlist "new media", but it does the same thing. It opens the file in new media, like it said, but when I open a new file it just re-creates "new media" with just that song in it. FIXED : The option "Enqueue incoming files by default" is what I wanted...

There is one thing in iTunes that I really love. Whenever you play something, be it an MP3 or a radio station or whatever, it adds it to a big list. Every time I open iTunes, all the stuff I've ever played is right there. All the radios, everything. In, say, foobar2000, I open an MP3 and it...

If I use iTunes 7 the playback stutters if I play a game or do ANYTHING else but iTunes 7. This never used to happen with iTunes 6. Any suggestions? Thanks

Both Trillian and GAIM are terrible. Trillian has 1000x more features than any sane person would uver use and GAIM feels like a linux app. Oh wait.... I really like AIM Pro. I don't think you should go anywhere.

It's a 30GB iPod video. What do you mean "disk mode"? How do I find that out?

Anyone? This is a really annoying problem as people like to swap out iPods at this house.

I just reformatted and installed iTunes 7 as my music player. When I plug my iPod video into the computer it takes FOREVER for iTunes to finally bring it up. Like at least 2-3 minutes. It's not cool at all. How can I fix this?

What kind of repair store? I'm not sure where to look here. But thanks for the advise. This is exactly what I wanted to hear.

Alright this is the gist of it. I while ago I put my 9800 Pro in. Then like a year later, I was pulling it out and I somehow *forgot* the proper way to remove the power cable. There is a connector ON the video card, and that connector goes to the actual detachable connector. I tried my hardest...

I don't have the free time anyone! Game still sells for 35 dollars everywhere so you can have it for 25 dollars shipped

I've never been that big of a fan of Trillian. It's pretty complicated software, at leat how I saw it. Maybe I'm wrong? Does anyone use anything else besides Trillian?

My new install feels SULLIED by this garbage called AIM Triton. What other programs can I use that are compatible with AIM? Nobody I know uses any other IM client and I like to transfer files which never seems to work with other clients like Gaim. Anyone got any ideas here? Thanks

Ha, you're right. If I hit Shift the "Stand By" button turns into "Hibernate". WIndows Help did not tell me that and they are assbandits.

I went to Power Options, turned on Hibernate. Go to Start -> Turn Off Computer and Hibernate is not an option! How do I get it to be an option?

Ok, here's the skinny. I have an Audigy (SB0090) and a Live! (SB0060) installed in the same computer. Both are running the kX drivers and both are recognized. I can configure them however I want. foobar2000, Tracktion, Reason, etc. all can see both sound cards in their respective audio...

If you want to be able to use instruments you can download (VSTi) then you want something like FL Studio or Cubase. If you want something that is a little more tightly integrated and more like a packaged studio, go for Reason 3.0. Reason is very good but it's limited in that you can't use VSTi...
