umm...pretty much any part of any program except for the winforms GUI can be multithreaded. and if you develop a custom GUI (like what a game might use) then it too can be multithreaded. You should look up the difference between parallel computing and multi-threaded computing, they aren't the same. Multi-threaded is having seprate threads doing seprate tasks in a single program, though it is possible to have parallel computing in a multi-threaded environment, multi-threading does not gurentee parallel computing is being done. Parallel computing is having multiple processors working together to solve a single task. For example, game engines are very linear by nature. Though they can be enhanced by throwing physics off to other processors, the actual progress through the game engine itself does not expand well into the parallel computing world. My personal opinion is on a desktop, once you get beyond 16 cores, all avenues of parallel processing within that single system for most standard desktop applications will be exhausted and any addition cores will make next to no improvments in performance. Indeed, 80 cores is overkill for a desktop. A server application would probably be the best for this, or some intensely loaded desktop running 80+ processes (not too rare actually; some of the bloatware that brand-name PCs are shipped with will occupy 60-70 processes, I had to format and reinstall for a friend that had just bought a new PC loaded with said software, now she's surprised at its performance).

Why can't you just try installing then? -
[Project] Self infecting secondary PC
LLXX replied to Tarun's topic in Malware Prevention and Security
Lol, this is going to be the exact opposite of the advice I usually give: Use Internet Explorer and in the Internet zone set every security option to Enable. Go to Google and search keywords that usually return lots of malware e.g. warez,cracks,porn,etc. Start clicking on random search results. If ActiveX security warnings about installing things appear, always accept There are a LOT of malware out there... here's a few you haven't named: - GAIN (Gator Advertising Information Network) - NewDotNet ...and the following fake antispyware programs can be downloaded and installed too SpyAxe AntiVirus Gold SpywareStrike WorldAntiSpy SpyTrooper Spy Sheriff SpyBan SpyWiper PAL Spyware Remover Spyware Stormer PSGuard Spyware Quake -
One of the electron guns in the monitor might be dying. See if you can compensate with 'color balance' or similar setting on the monitor.

Have you forgotten about the power supply?

http://meesoft.logicnet.dk/DiagramDesigner/ Open. Source. There's also 'fdrw225b' which is rather old (1990) but we use it here frequently for flowcharting in Asm programming. Not open-source though, but free.

You're basically asking for a keygen, which isn't allowed here. Besides, there are tons of those floating around on the Internet already. -
Really not compatible, or they just saying so? Best way is to try it and find out...

Well all my codecs (including ffdshow) are DirectShow filters so I don't see any disadvantage there... besides, DirectShow is flexible and you can encode/decode things easily via GraphEdit. (Yes, DirectShow can be used for encoding as well.)

C: is not filled enough And regarding licenses etc. M$ has completely dropped support for 9x/ME and not even making any profits from it so there is no harm done at all from downloading 9x/ME. -

I click on Sylpheed.exe, I get a busy cursor like something is going on, then the cursor reverts back to the regular cursor, without the program's having opened. Sylpheed does not appear in the task list, so it's not even running in the background. I'll counter with a question - what do you mean "Kernel Update"? I don't have a clue what that is or how to "try" it.ivman If you'd searched the forums for that exact term you would've found this: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=71476

Did you enable some option on the controller card to do that? I've never heard of such an option, but...

Wow, I love the ingenuity (?) of the users here... writing pRNGs with batch files, certainly something I haven't seen before (I have seen a crude hex editor written in a batch file though ). But the easy way is to just use %random%, the environment variable that returns a pseudo-random value each time it's accessed!

Either the registry entries for the service are broken, or the services.msc is somehow corrupt. If this happens for all services, it's the services.msc. Otherwise it's just that single service, and you can use the SC command line utility to attempt to remove and reinstall it.

The point he's making is that GUIs don't have to be resource consuming. There is an "OS" (actually, a DOS shell) that used to be popular with demosceners, called TzLXG. A full window manager, which looked somewhat like Win95 classic, in ~10Kb of code including a basic graphical shell. Unfortunately it seems to have vanished completely from the Internet (being from the late 80s/early 90s) but if you look through some archives you might find a copy...

Get the Microsoft CAB SDK, it has several CAB utilities in it...

eMule is still useful for those few rare files...

Please follow validation instruction in first post after filled drive with the data exceeds 128Gb. Thank you. -
??? I don't get this.... I have Mobile Siemens Scenic 700/710 on 133MHz and Win98 works like a dream... NO TWEAKS! So i don't see the problem... 98SE also works very well on a 486DX2-66. I used that for a few years before upgrading to a P233MMX overclocked to 266, then a PII 450 and finally the P4 4.17GHz now.

What do you mean, 'will not open'? Have you tried the Kernel Update?

Noone mentioned the "at xx:xx program.exe" ? This uses the task manager to run a program as a service at a specific time (and under full-priviledge System account too...)
