    "Local Access" Annoyance, no network..

    I completely agree here - if you get internet on your computer when plugged into the modem, you'll need to use the "clone mac address" feature in your router to get things working. Otherwise, you'll need to wait for the DHCP license your computer recieved to go away - which is likely a few...

    "Local Access" Annoyance, no network..

    a buddy of mine had a huge problem with his router rebooting constantly. Went to his house and he had it in his attic... problem was, the attic was about 120 degrees and his router was overheating. I'm guessing your situation would be less drastic (if heat is your problem), but be sure that...

    Microsoft’s Patent on Restricting Functionality Of Your PC

    but the problem is, if someone at microsoft screws up + winds up adding a * or something to the list of machines that have "reduced functionality" then suddently thousands, or millions of folks across the country (who have a legitimate copy) are then screwed... This type of crap should not be...

    You Are All Tax Cheats

    I think sales taxes are a friggin waste of time... If you need more money - increase income taxes... do away with sales taxes all together. I hate trying to figure out what stuff will cost me as the store after the 6% increase. Sales taxes are confusting, antiquated, and it would be a lot...

    question: why isn't this login script working?

    Why not call a VBScript with the code you had in your first post? Create a file named CanonPRT.vbs add your two lines of code: Set objNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network") objNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection "\\DCNAME\Canon 2010f" Store it in your scripts directory...

    Wireless portable Internet from my wired connection

    your profile sais you are running vista, so I looked a bit further, and vista still calls it Internet connection sharing - http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Windows/en-US/help/bfd3bd31-82f0-4b9c-9cde-fb92bc2b14771033.mspx - ignore the junk in the article about IPV6 - use IPV4 (which is what the...

    Wireless portable Internet from my wired connection

    If you would add a USB wifi adapter to your PC (or any wifi adapter for that matter), you could use your PC to share the internet. In XP, it was called Internet connection sharing - setup guide - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306126. I'm assuming Vista would have something similar. Linux...

    PCI TV Tuner cards in VM's??

    If you plan on using VMC (vista media center) this would be your best bet. If you wanted to keep your OS licensces down to a minimum, SageTV supports running on WHS natively

    PCI TV Tuner cards in VM's??

    Also, look at the HDHomerun - its a network based TV tuner for digital broadcasts (atsc and QAM) - I played with MythTV in a virt box using my HDHR box.

    Computer Uses Wrong Resolution

    Powerstrip allows you to set custom resolutions - it only comes as shareware, but I believe that once you have the resolution set up, you don't loose it after the shareware period ends.

    wireless and wired router on same network

    OK set your wired router to the .106 address + turn off DHCP. Plug your game adapter, PC, and Xbox into the LAN ports of the wired router. This will basically turn your wired router into a hub or switch. Use only the LAN ports on the wired router (the WAN port won't work)

    wireless and wired router on same network

    If your Wired router will be your main router - follow the instructions below.... if the wireless is the main, reverse the instructions Steps. Go to your Wired router's Web page config - (go to IE and type 192.168.X.1 (x usually equals 0-4)) Find the DHCP range - IP addresses that it hands...

    Making a router an AP?

    part of the problem here is not understanding what various terms like AP (access point) and other terms used here are. see below: AP = Takes signal from Ethernet cable and broadcasts it to wireless. - should use full wireless speed WDS = next fastest (cuts wireless speeds in half) - need...

    For Sale - hard drive cooler and Fan controller

    This hard drive cooler fits a standard 3.5 inch drive + places it in a 5 1/4 inch bay. The heatsink is very solid + weighs one pound 12 ounces. In the pics it shows the faceplate, which wouldn't necc need to be installed - looks fairly easy to remove. If you chose to use the faceplate, two...

    Do any projectors have a built in Fan Battery or Capacitor?

    I would say your problem was not due to loss of power, however a strong electrical surge right before or after may have fried your bulb, or possibly the electronics such as power supply in your projector itself.

    “Bad Air Day” Dress

    took me a while to understand that this thing only looks bad when the air quality is bad. I don't know that that dress could look OK even with good air. Another note - If this takes off, I guess the whole issue of "who farted" would take care of itself. The idiot who left one fly would have...

    Did anyone actually *buy* MS Office?

    My last job some people still had office 97. Word 2003 was unable to propperly display most of the Word 97 documents. Open office opened these files without any issues. In this case Open Office has BETTER compatibility than microsoft's own program!! I'd have to ask you, have you actually...

    Basic Simple Playback

    with a 6600, you may even be able to get away with any mpeg based Hi def content. I'm guessing h.264 content would be too much for your system though.... you could certainly try. So if you decide to add a tuner, ATSC/QAM playback should be fine. If you wanted to use a bluray player internal...

    Basic Simple Playback

    This would be no problem on either of those systems. I've played back DVD content on 800mhz machines without any issues. If you plan on viewing HD content, you may have a bit of a problem - you'd probably want to get a fairly recent video card - most of the DX10 cards will have HD...
