  1. I currently have a modem, router switch setup. Is there a reason I can't go Modem, switch, router? Hotwire is unwilling to do that. I would like my wifi to reach a different part of the house. That is why I would like to move the router and change to Modem, switch, router.
  2. That definitely sounds correct. Can't even download a driver off their website. This is the message when you try.
  3. Is there a way to brother mfc-240c windows 10 compatibility? Google said it was released July 7, 2004. https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=brother+mfc-240c+release+date Windows 10 was released July 29, 2015. https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=windows+10+release+date The brother website is confusing. This page says: Windows® 98(SE)/ Me/ 2000/ XP/ XP Pro x64 Edition https://support.brother.com/g/b/spec.aspx?c=us&lang=en&prod=mfc240c_all This page says: Windows 10 (64-bit) is supported. https://support.brother.com/g/b/oslist.aspx?c=us&lang=en&prod=mfc240c_all Which is it?
  4. Can I please get some recommendations on recording desktop and audio software?
  5. I am doing a windows 10 install. I get this message: How do I resolve this? It also does not make since to ask this question because it has not given me a chance to connect to the internet.
  6. Are there any laptops that have at least 1080p, a big hard drive, and at least 4 USB TYPE a ports (this seems to be the hard part to find). Every laptop I have seen has at most two USB TYPE a ports.
  7. I am trying to install windows 10. I do not have internet at the location of the computer I am trying to install windows 10. Unfortunately the i do not have internet option is missing. How do I get it to come back?
  8. I have a hard drive that is about to die. It is the hard drive for my OS. It has given me 7 good years so I think I got my moneys worth. I obviously want to get my data off of it. So what is the best way to do this with hopefully as little strain as possible on it? Do I want to just load the OS then straight copy and paste to an external HD or a big flash drive? I have a couple of massive flash drives. I usually use my external HD's just trying to think of all my options. Do I want to load up a live cd and copy and paste that way so there is less OS strain on the HD? Use another computer to create an image? Is there some better option I am not thinking of?
  9. When you have multiple monitors their is a way to move your metro to another monitor/screen. How do you do this? I sometimes do this by accident but can never figure out how I do this. Is there both a keyboard and mouse way to do this? Guessing I am pressing some keyboard combination.
  10. I am having trouble getting my Windows 8 computer to connect to WiFi. Can I please get some suggestions on how to fix this?
  11. I apologize if this is something easy. I have never used a patch panel before. No matter what I try I am not able to get an internet connection through the patch panel. This is a panduit dp5e patch panel. I have tried running a cable from the router to patch panel. I have tried running a cable from the switch to the patch panel. Neither method work. I have noticed that the lights do not turn on either way. Is this patch panel supposed to have some kind of power supply for the lights? I do not see a way to plug it in. Am I missing some part I need? The router and switch both work fine.
  12. I am not able to use the Windows find. I followed this tutorial to rebuild my index. This did not help. https://www.geeksinphoenix.com/blog/post/2013/02/24/Search-for-files-and-folders-faster-in-Windows-8-with-Indexing-Options.aspx After that I followed this tutorial. This made it worse. I was able to find some files previously. Now I am not able to find any files. https://www.cnet.com/forums/discussions/windows-8-1-search-can-t-find-files-607534/ What do I want to do next?
  13. What are the steps you need to take when you put an old HD in a new computer? I just did this. Every time it makes it to the windows boot screen then restarts. I have a bunch of old engineering software that is not compatible with the newer versions of windows. I figured this out after I bought a new computer and tried to add the software to a newer version of windows. So I figured I could just swap the HD's. This does not seem to be working either. Is there some way to set the new HD as a master and the old drive as a slave and boot that way maybe?
  14. How do I check the temperature? The only way I know to do that is to use a program like Everest or check in the bios. It cuts off to fast for me to do that.
  15. My desktop computer is only turning on for a few seconds after that it turns off. I assumed it was the power supply so I bought another one. Last night I installed the power supply. It took awhile with me reseating everything and taking out the cmos battery to get the computer running. After that I used it for about an hour. I went home and came back to the office the next day. Unfortunately it reverted back to the behavior of only turning on for a few seconds after that it turns off. Can I please get some suggestions on what to do?
  16. How do you copy files sequentially? Does Robocopy copy files sequentially?
  17. I want to backup my data. I do not care about the windows file. I just want my work, movies, and music. I have about 600 GB of work, movies, and music so a bit worried about fragmentation if I just copy and paste.
  18. Are there any recommended methods for Backing up an entire HD? Will just copying and pasting the entire HD lead to fragmentation?
  19. Whats a COA? I bought this Toshiba laptop at best buy so I do not understand what the problem is.

  21. Does Windows 8 no longer give you the option to format your hard drive to fat32? I only see exfat and ntfs. I tried computer, right click drive, format, only saw exfat and ntfs. I tried windows + r, diskmgmt.msc, right click drive, format, only saw exfat and ntfs.
  22. It still tells me to use slui.exe.
  23. I keep getting harassed to activate my Windows 8. So I do as it says. I try to activate Windows and it never works. I have a legal version of Windows that I bought from Toshiba so I don't understand what the problem is. When I do the change pc settings, activate It says can not activate right now. When I do this method from an elevated command prompt I get the message use slui.exe. Slmgr /ipk XXXXX XXXXX XXXXX XXXXX XXXXX When I use slui.exe It says can not be activated right now. The two options I have found to disable this message are below. Its ridiculous that I have to do this when I have a legal version of Windows. Open Regedit then go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\sppsvc and right side select Start the right click and Modify change value to 4. Open Regedit. Then go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion \SoftwareProtectionPlatform\Activation In the right pane of the registry editor, you will find REG_DWORD value ‘Manual’. Right-click on it and select Modify. In the Value Data window which appears, change the DWORD value to 1. The default is 0 which means auto-activation is enabled. Changing the value to 1 will disable auto-activation. Close the Registry Editor and restart your system.
  24. I am having trouble with windows 8 files are opening with single click when I have the double click option selected. How can I fix this? It is driving me crazy.
  25. The windows 8 search is no longer working from computer (aka my computer in older versions of windows). It works from everywhere else like the C drive, desktop, and my documents. I have already rebuilt my index. What do I need to do to fix this? I am attaching a screenshot.
