RE: Partition Help
According to that screenshot, you only have one 250GB hard drive -- or, perhaps, two configured as RAID-1 mirror set on an onboard RAID controller. That pretty much eliminates all the things we've been discussing so far. If you have two drives in... | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 08-09-2007 at 06:47 AM |
RE: Partition Help
You only need one more drive for RAID-5 -- the minimum is considered to be 3 and theorethically it could work with 2 (but then you would be much better off using RAID-1). However, the more drives you have, the more cost effective it becomes -- the ... | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 08-09-2007 at 04:16 AM |
RE: Partition Help
Start, Run, type "diskmgmt.msc", click Ok. When Disk Management console appears, find your second drive, which should show as all free space -- right click in the free space and create a new volume. I don't recall the exact verbiage of the menu,... | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 08-08-2007 at 09:48 PM |
RE: Partition Help
The problem with Traxor's suggestion is that you can't extend the boot volume, even if you convert it to dynamic. So, you can only do that if you have partitioned your drive -- you would then be able to exted the second, non-boot partition. What y... | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 08-08-2007 at 09:21 PM |
RE: Partition Help
Your question is somewhat unclear, so I am just going to state what you can do. 1) You can format the previously unused hard drive and assign it a new drive letter. For example, if you already have drives C: and D:, it would become E:. It sounds li... | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 08-08-2007 at 06:32 AM |
RE: IDE HDD limitations
48-bit LBA support was added in SP1, correct. If your Windows CD is the original release, you may want to [url=http://www.winsupersite.com/showcase/windowsx p_sp2_slipstream.asp]slipstream[/url] in the current service pack before you install Windows. | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 08-04-2007 at 12:39 AM |
RE: Msn Not working with 2 Routers.. ideas?
It doesn't "work fine". It may seem so where protocols involving outbound connections only are concerned, but such a setup completely breaks UPnP and makes manual port forwarding very difficult (as it would need to be done on both routers). It w... | Adeptus | Skype & Live Messenger | 08-03-2007 at 06:28 AM |
RE: Msn Not working with 2 Routers.. ideas?
While I don't think it should prevent you from logging into Messenger, you should never chain two NAT routers. It will cause many problems. For connecting wired devices, you can replace the second router with a switch or a hub. If you need to exte... | Adeptus | Skype & Live Messenger | 08-03-2007 at 05:27 AM |
RE: NO AERO with VISTA?
I gave you that link because it wasn't going to hurt to try, but it is far from guaranteed means to force-enable Aero -- it applied in some situations, to a beta release (so it may no longer work at all). You should start by figuring out whether yo... | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 08-01-2007 at 06:03 PM |
RE: NO AERO with VISTA?
It sounds like your computer doesn't meet the minimum requirements for Aero. Most older laptops (which, I seem to recall from your other posts, is what you have) wouldn't. Anyway, [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Aero#req uirements]the req... | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 08-01-2007 at 05:11 PM |
RE: Help deciding between motherboards
The difference is that the cheaper board uses nForce 680i LT chipset, which is a scaled back version of the 680i chipset on the other board.

RE: Backlight on laptop off?
My first thought was that you may have accidentally switched to external display only mode -- another of the brand-dependent key combinations, usually Fn + some function key. You should try to find this key combination for your laptop (the function ... | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 07-24-2007 at 11:25 PM |
RE: About PC suspend mode
Those are just different names for the same. ACPI mode S3, "suspend to RAM", is Windows "standby". S4, "suspend to disk", is "hibernate". | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 07-24-2007 at 02:27 PM |
RE: combining old chat history?
I don't think there is presently, but now that you have mentioned it, that sounds like a great idea and something I wouldn't mind doing myself.

RE: USB driver not recognized??
Well, I suppose another problem could be it being an older, USB 1.1 cable. Those were not shielded as USB 2.0 standard requires, so it may work fine for some of your USB 1.1 devices, but not the flash drive which is almost certainly 2.0. You may wan... | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 07-17-2007 at 04:51 PM |
RE: USB driver not recognized??
Obviously, the cable is a)bad; or b)too long. You've already figured out how to solve your problem -- don't use it. | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 07-17-2007 at 03:38 PM |
RE: HTML and XML problem
Good thing you bumped it. I never saw the edit about IIS. The best thing to do with IIS is put your project in its own virtual directory with immediate expiration. You set expiration on the "HTTP Headers" tab under virtual directory properties in... | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 07-13-2007 at 02:23 PM |
RE: HTML and XML problem
What do they use? IIS? I only made the suggestion for Apache because that is what most common hosting uses. There are ways to do this with any web server. | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 07-12-2007 at 05:02 AM |
RE: ftp download manager
I suspect you have been downloading with your web browser. That's your first mistake. You don't need a "download manager", just a real FTP client (all of which support resume). There's literally [url=http://www.google.com/search?q=Windows+FTP... | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 07-12-2007 at 03:26 AM |
RE: HTML and XML problem
You are having problems with the browser caching the XML file (you can test this by clearing your browser cache after you have made a change to the XML). Since you can't use meta tags in an XML data file, you need a different solution to control cac... | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 07-12-2007 at 03:08 AM |
RE: Router problem
Just in case you didn't think of it -- you definitely need to power-cycle (turn off for ~10 seconds, turn back on) the cable modem when you switch from USB to ethernet, or from a direct connection to your PC to router. | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 07-10-2007 at 04:37 PM |
RE: Should i get vista?
It's not a "new OS". The OS is "Windows" and Vista is just another incremental release. | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 07-10-2007 at 09:10 AM |
RE: Should i get vista?
I do not share your opinion. Despite being able to buy perfectly legal Vista at about 90% discount, I find that Vista Ultimate is not worth even $65 to me. I'd sooner pay to not have to use it. My objection is not about hardware requirements (I h... | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 07-09-2007 at 02:25 PM |
RE: Enhancing Video Card Performance?
The only other thing you can try is playing at a lower resolution. Hopefully your wide screen display supports 4:3 modes and you can try 800x600 or even 640x480. | Adeptus | Tech Talk | 07-07-2007 at 12:21 AM |
