Thanks guys I'm running XP PRO and the reinstal will also be XP pro The programs i'd want to save would be: Motorolla Mobile phone tools (It took honestly months to get it set right to connect via bluetooth to my cell) Mpegable video maker also for my cell phone and the old sync program for my handspring visor (it still works well so i never replaced it) Some other saves would be nice but those are the main 3 I need Also is there a way to make a list of all the websites i have autologon info for? I'm a member of about 20 sites where i have unique logon info like msfn.org that I know i wont be able to get into or even remember i'm a part of after i reinstall. Thanks Josh

Hey guys I started using EFS on my desktop and laptop. I copied the certificates from both laptop and desktop to each other so each had all certificates. Recently, some of the files that I encrypted will not decrypt. When I check the properties, it is encrypted using the desktop certificate but i canot access the file from my desktop. Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks, Josh

I found out how to do it for USB disks go into properties / hardware/ policies and switch it from optimize for quick remouval to performace and then format it is ntfs My next question would be how decrypt these NTFS files on another computer My goal is to keep my documents folder on the USB key and transfer it between my desktop at home, my laptop and my workstation at the office. I tried backing up the encryption certificates on my desktop and importing them to the laptop but that hasnt been able to decypt the files Any ideas on how this can be done? Thank

Hey guys I was trying to find a way to copy ntfs encrypted files onto cd/dvd or usb key and keep the ntfs encryption. Anyone know how this can be done? Thanks

I ended up buying a viewsonic N2750w from Costco. Its a 27 inch widescreen and was only $899 I really like it except for some minor quirks. The remote is way too basic and doesnt have a remote code so you cant use a universal remote unless its a learning one. Also it's a bit slow to switch between inputs like tv to monitor... Also the entore screen goes blank for 1 second as you switch between pip and regular mode. As long as you get a learning remote like the harmony I highly recommend this monitor.

Hey Guys First of all sorry if this is in the wrong section i'm looking at buying a media center pc. I currently have digital cable with digital receiver box. how can i use media center to control the digital box or can i somehow get media center tv tuners to decode the chanels past 125 ? additionally would dual tuners work under this scenario? Thanks, Josh

Hey guys I'm looking into voip and i'd like to implement monitering. Basically i'd like to have a display on my pc screen telling me who is calling and to record and catalogue each call made and received. This would include callers name, Caller ID, length of call, time, date... All i've found so far are programs from small or independant companies but nothing at a higher level. Can anyone recommend a call monitering solution for me? Thanks josh

Hey guys I'm looking to get a nice big lcd moniter / TV what do you think about the Sharp 23M1U ? Specs Any comments would help Also what would be the best thing for recording more than one show at once from a tv tuner card? Thanks Josh

my use for this would be to run xp pro (maybe with a bunch of cut services to save resources) office 2003 (everything from excel to visio and mappoint), photoshop and maybe doom 3 Is a new version of the ULV expected soon?

Do all laptops take the same sized ram or do brands like dell, gateway and sony have their own ram with cannot be combined with other brands? I ask this because the Viao T series sells ram upgrades for $299 512 pc 2700 it seems pretty expensive for what it is. Also if the system bus on the notebook is 400 mhz would it make sense to upgrade to 400 mhz ram after buying the notebook since sony doesnt offer it? Thanks Josh

Hey guys I'm looking for some software that would allow me to record, log and document all incoming and outgoing calls made on my voip phone. Anyone know of such software? Thanks Josh

Hey guys I've been trying to find reviews on ultra low voltage mobile processors but have had little luck. Do any of you have any experiance with them? In terms of performance will i be happy or is multitasking a pipe dream with this processor? Thanks josh

Hey guys I'm thinking about using a tv as my moniter. what would be the best to use? an lcd or plasma ? What are the downsides to this approach? Thanks Josh

Actually future shop and best buy are the same company now in quebec you'll be seeing best buys pop up right acroos the street from their future shop brothers

Vaio T270 Hey guys I'm in the market for an ultra portable notebook. Anyone have any experiance or comments with this or any other ultra portable i should know about? Also for the same price i could get an alienware sentia with better specs except that its not as small or light or anywhere near as good battery life + no bluetooth. Thanks Josh

I had the same problem and i found out that like many isp's mine was blocking port 25 they say to prevent spam. If you were checking this to send email through a corporate server all you need to do is change the outbound smtp server from your site to that of your isp and it should work fine. It did for me But make sure to change the settings if you travel because it wont work if you do. Hope this helps

wow that worked thanks alot

Hey guys I used to send my email through port 25 to my websites server. Now, my isp has blocked port 25 to "prevent spam". How can i get around this to continue sending email? I can still receive email since they havent blocked port 110 Any suggestions?

Hey guys I'm looking to buy a new laptop for business use. Unfortunately I believe that my needs contradict each other. 1. I need something small and ultra portable with great battery life 6+ hours. 2. I need lots of processing power. typically i'll be running an excel financial model which uses massive memory, word, visio, project, outlook, powerpoint, photoshop with all the other programs running in the back (messenger, media, iexplorer...) am I expecting too much from a laptop? What would you recommend i get to fill my needs? so far i've looked at the alienware sentia, sony vaio T series, dell latitude X1 and the ibm thinkpad X40 and X41 convertable tablet. I liked the ibm because of the integrated fingerprint reader but was unpleased with its lack of an optical drive. The alienware didnt have integrated bluetooth and i've heard not so great things about viao's. Any help would be greatly appreciated Josh

As far as Email goes, outlook has the option to leave a copy of the message on the server so if you enable it, both computers can download the same mesage. For a perfect sync, you can simply copy the .pst file at regular intervals and import to outlook. I hope this helps

i installed both i created a virtual server and ugraded it and tried to use the sharepoint administrative center to put a site there but i keep getting errors that a user doesnt exist when i type an owner name. when i try and create a team site through frontpage i get the error that the the directory doesnt exist in the database Its starting to annoy me

I just put together a server and installed windows server 2003 and sharepoint services with service pack 1. I opened frontpage and tried to make a basic sharepoint site but it tells me that i'm not running sharepoint. Any one have any ideas what i'm doing wrong? Thanks, Josh

I installed IIS6.0 and asp.net i'm having trouble unfortunately installing sharepoint services it seems to fail during the part of installation where it installs the desktop engine for mysql
