  1. What is the hardware ID for this NIC?
  2. 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!
  3. 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.
  4. 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."
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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?
  11. 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?
  12. I work in the enterprise, therefore I can't use it.
  13. I'm not sure I even know what it is.
  14. 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.
  15. 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.
  16. OK, so we now know your BIOS version: 1687 and your rev: 301 Based on this guy (yes I look at these often) http://downloadmirror.intel.com/15056/eng/DG965RY_TechProdSpec.pdf It makes no mention of any problem with board revs, which matches the processorfinder. This means the best CPU you can get is the E6700, 2.66GHz Core 2 Duo. http://processorfinder.intel.com/details.aspx?sSpec=SL9ZF http://processorfinder.intel.com/details.aspx?sSpec=SL9S7 EDIT: I wanted to add that you do not need to do a BIOS update. The processorfinder does not show any BIOS requirements to be higher than 1687, so you should be good.
  17. Now that you are a member, you could ask or answer a question in the nLite forum. Its not a bad thing to register really. I register on forums all the time to look at something or whatever and not actually post.
  18. Not really e-Berlin. Maybe its because this topic was posted in the wrong place. We do have a phone forum: http://www.msfn.org/board/handheld-devices-f71.html And a news section: http://www.msfn.org/board/technology-news-f63.html And a place for you to post links to your own website: http://www.msfn.org/board/websites-boards-f4.html However, if you had posted a link to a media outlet instead, you probably wouldn't have gotten your post edited in the first place. Here is one for example: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/04/19/purported_iphone_4g/
  19. Looks to be so. Check this list, it shows what CPUs this board supports and also what BIOS or hardware Rev is needed in order to use them: http://processormatch.intel.com/CompDB/SearchResult.aspx?Boardname=dg965ry The Hardware Rev is a number printed on a white sticker on the board, usually near the memory slots. You can use this tool if you can't find it: http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/CS-012681.htm In the picture on that page, It says "Board Version" and has a number that ends in -201. The -201 in that picture is the board rev or revision.
  20. OK I have a question then. So you can only get custom themes from the answer file if you patch the files?
  21. Yeah, I'm going to say right now that I am NOT going to be spending any money on these things. The only consideration would be to get power adapters for the other two. Also I am not going to change the OS until I corrupt this one.
  22. Hmmm I had not heard of that manufacturer before. When talking about a workstation or a home PC, I agree with the drive failing thing. I only have experience using RAID in Servers. Well no I know there was some in VAIO but I didn't think it was a good idea for Sony to do that.
  23. I'm pretty sure that an /apply will overwrite existing files if they are there. I may be wrong there, but you can easily test this as WIM is just like a big complicated ZIP file.
  24. Welcome to Notebook cRaZyLaNd! This is the first of 3 installments. Let me start out by saying that this will be a community project with a couple stipulations: - I will take input into consideration - I cannot garauntee I will be very fast at implementing them - We are going to be dealing with some potentially severe hardware limitations. That being said, I will give a start to this little story. Recently I had been disappointed that I have not tried playing around with computers as much anymore, at least outside of work. So today I got home and decided I could play around with my old notebooks. I had two of them in the closet, a Compaq Armada M700 and a Compaq LTE 5000. I have a second LTE 5000 but it is missing a hard drive. I also have another Compaq Armada that has a busted display. I do believe that I also have an IBM Thinkpad, however I have no idea where that is. So I have these two notebooks but no power adapters. I go on the mad hunt for power adapters and it became a trip down computer memory lane! First I found my mud-covered GRiDCase 1520, which I keep just because it is what it is, although it never survived the flood a couple years ago. I then found another unfortunate soul, victim of the flood, which is a Toshiba Tecra. I was thinking maybe I could try turning it on... however it may either not do anything or at worst, start on fire or explode! Last stop, digging around in the basement, I did not find any power adapters. However I did manage to find 2 PCMCIA NIC dongles as well as a 3Com Etherlink III PCMCIA NIC. After my hour or so of searching, I finally found a power adapter, but that is not all. I also found the notebook it belonged to! So now we are sitting at 3 notebooks to play around with, but currently only have AC adapter for one of them. And that is what this thread is about. If you want full specs, check the "my servers" link in my thread. Notebook cRaZyLaNd! Part 1: Windows 2000 Computer Name: IMAGETEST06 (Windows 2000 SP2) - Compaq Armada 1592DMT - Intel Pentium MMX - 64MB RAM - 3GB HDD (IBM-DYKA-23240) - 3Com 10/100 PCMCIA NIC With those specs in mind, I now open this thread up to anyone. What can I possibly do with this PC? How can I make it faster or more up to date? You be the judge!
  25. What I've used before (when I tried to get DirectX to work in PE 2.1) is you put your app in the PE. Then you boot to the PE and open Dependency Walker. Then load up the app into Depends and it will tell you what is missing. However sometimes you can copy those DLLs and other files into the PE but they won't register properly or are used by a Service that is not detected by Depends. I ran into this problem trying to get BurnInTest to read from DirectX but nothing I did worked, although I did learn how to use Depends on WinPE.
