The SATA controller is on the motherboard. Yes, each drive has their own "controller" card on them, but it does not relate to the SATA controller. The SATA/PATA option would (or should) not allow you to create a RAID array and mix SATA and PATA drives. This is because the PATA data rate is so much slower than SATA, your array (if you managed to create one) would likely break an instant after creating it. The SATA Controller is not related to the chipset on the board, although some controllers would require certain chipsets. You can have 2 boards with the same chipset but with two different SATA controllers. The SATA controller would manage both the SATA and PATA devices. Changing a setting in the Intel RAID BIOS will not automatically change any setting in the motherboard BIOS. If you set the drives to NON-RAID, the BIOS will probably be set for RAID. You can go and change this to IDE or AHCI (if you have those options) but Windows will still have the RAID driver in the OS.

Oooo a pic i can use for a signature elsewhere...

I think this might also disable auto-changing wallpaper if you have that option enabled.

When you make a post or a reply, below the text box, There is an attachments section. It tells you what the maximum file size you can use and how much space you are alloted. MSFN should not be used to remotely host pictures, as you can use Photobucket, Flickr, Imageshack or other websites designed to handle that kind of bandwidth.

Just like I said before. You're competing with over 100 million oher blogs (many of which are tech-oriented; and a new one is created every half-second or so) so your site is mostly lost in a sea of other blogs. You're also competing with dozens of well established "techy" sites (anandtech, gizmodo, engadget, etc) that have strong financial backing and a large full-time staff (and contacts with manufacturers, etc), and news aggregators too (reddit, digg, slashdot, etc). Good luck. And yes, this is exactly why I don't have a site. You should make a website about Coffee. I imagine much less competition!

Because some discussion was in PM, I'd like to add that the website uses a cBox embedded chat interface.

I used to use UltraEdit back then too. It was a fairly good text editor and pretty good hex editor -- a hard to beat combo. But they screwed up a lot of things in the latest versions IMO, even in the hex editing department (searching for unicode strings is now a real PITA; also it even defaults to a "hex" search in text files...). I'm less and less impressed with every new release of UltraEdit that comes out. It does a lot of things but none of them particularly well, and in most cases there's better alternatives, and often for free (e.g. notepad++ for text, winmerge for comparing/merging, etc). I've made the switch to Notepad++ a while ago as my main text editor and never looked back. I remember trying the demo of one of the newer versions of UltraEdit and I didn't like it. I originally started using UltraEdit for CSS back when I used Dreamweaver 2, since DW2 would crash if you tried to edit a CSS file in it. Actually, even CS4 can crash with a CSS file. I still use an old version. I suppose some day, if I need more power, I'll look at Notepad++.

I tried this once but found it easier to do it with Flash or an HTA.

Post the exact error message. No one can help you with your original question.

Interesting cubic watermelons... Reminds me of an old Nat Geo magazine where someone grew a cucumber inside a mold of Richard Nixon's face.

What is the hardware ID for this NIC?

I learned about it much later? I've been using UltraEdit since... (sorry i need to look at the install date) ... 2003? Was Notepad++ around then? I think I started using UltraEdit because some guy I worked with once used it too. Man that was a long time ago!

Ah yes, I have MAME installed on the LTE 5000 notebook which has no power cord. I do plan additional Notebook Crazyland topics (I'm too tired to type it right) about those other ones. The LTE 5000 has NT 3.51 on it too! I will try to remember to try some power adapters on that one tomorrow. FWIW, I got the NT 4 notebook (you need to look in the "my servers" link in my sig for the updates) to turn on using the MSI Wind AC Adaptor, even tho the values didn't exactly match up.

I agree. I've been using FTP since about 2001. It still makes my head spin, recently I set up a web-server and was like "WHAT" when I did not enable FrontPage extensions to allow "magic" (aka n00b) upload feature. After this request I just told them "no, use FTP like everyone else."

cPanel implies phpBB type forums. If you know what type of software is installed on the forum (and as a staff member you should) and your fellow admins won't help, you likely should post this request on the relevant support forum or read the online documentation for it.

oic... I've been using this for years, even before XP. Its also known as text anti-aliasing, for anyone who uses any graphic programs.

The link was to a live feed. Unfortunately the author (nor his mods) didn't highlight any of the feed so there is no way to watch any of it. Notice it says "No Past Broadcasts" on the bottom. Then again, I am not logged into the site (I won't do that from work, I'd probably get a billion emails to read) so I can't get to the other parts. EDIT: I logged in and still do not see anything to review past videos. It appears this user registered for this one cast only.

Actually, this reminds me of my olden days at Iomega when they first started selling CD writers. Of course, Iomega didn't actually make their drives. I do not remember all of them, but the 8x ATAPI was made by Phillips for example. Anyways, they were picky about the types of discs you could use. Almost all pressed CDs were fine, but blanks were another story. Regular silver tops were a problem, but the white-top (printable) CDs were fine. Also Verbatim wouldn't work, but Memorex and Sony were OK. Fuji worked like 70% of the time. But that was a long time ago, I figured technology would get better but I bet some of these media type problems still exist today.

You are right. I used regular Scite on my old computer but this one only uses Scite4AutoIT. I prefer UltraEdit only because it also can do Hex and has better/more color coding options. Like how UltraEdit has a color code for PHP but Scite does not, or at least not in the default install. Either one are fine because they have line numbers. At least Scite can do beta/build/compile/run for AU3 files. No I don't think I can make a portable UltraEdit. They have a 30day Trial but the one I have at home is registered. While UltraEdit is really cool, I can't see the reason why I would buy more licenses for it to use it everywhere. Scite will have to do on my other PCs.

So you made a WinPE v3 CD and disabled the RAMDISK option, but now you want it? I don't think I understand the question. Do you want to be able to create the RAMDISK after booting off the CD?

First of all, 7 (and Vista) require proper Video and Audio drivers to be installed to play certain types of media. For example, sometimes if the video card is detected as Standard VGA Adapter, you can get errors like this. Since your report does not show your Audio device, how is it listed in Device Manager?

I work in the enterprise, therefore I can't use it.

I'm not sure I even know what it is.

Registry files are fine to redist. Not too certain about entire hives, such as SYSTEM or SAM. Best to provide scripts that add and remove the keys to the registry if there are so many changes you'd start thinking about redisting the entire hive. As it is known, no single file that gets installed by the OS can be redist, but you can redist .reg files.

I haven't used Hitachi, but I tend to try to use WD RE3 drives, even in non-RAID configurations. Except if these 2 drives are already in an array, you don't want to mix brands.
