RE: How to set up a home wireless network?
Don't worry about that until you have to. Unless you live in a palace or have metal walls, any basic router will easily cover an entire house. If you believe this may be an issue, I'd recommend looking for older versions of Linksys routers (still...		AdeptusTech Talk05-11-2006 at 03:45 AM
RE: there must be a way.
Look in other sections. It's probably somewhere there. Unfortunately, motherboard vendors are able to customize how the sections are organized.		AdeptusTech Talk05-05-2006 at 01:49 AM

RE: CPU fan help
It seems that every other person who commented on it thought it was rather loud. Having read that (I (L) reviews!), I'd be reluctant to recommend it to someone who already has one loud fan and think DJKAL would be wise to stick with his first choic...		AdeptusTech Talk05-05-2006 at 12:42 AM
RE: CPU fan help
I wouldn't worry about that -- it may be that way by design, and as long as it doesn't rattle or fall off, it will be fine.		AdeptusTech Talk05-04-2006 at 08:43 PM
RE: CPU fan help
I think that is a great choice -- in particular because [url=http://www.burnoutpc.com/modules/wfsection/ar ticle.php?articleid=175]this guy[/url] apparently has installed it on P4C800 and doesn't mention any fit problems (often an issue with large af...		AdeptusTech Talk05-04-2006 at 07:58 PM
RE: CPU fan help
The Spark 7 has a reputation for sounding like a jumbo jet on takeoff, so it shouldn't be too hard to improve on it. If you have the Intel retial box cooler sitting around somewhere, you may want to try it, by the way -- they are relatively quiet an...		AdeptusTech Talk05-04-2006 at 07:42 PM
RE: CPU fan help
What kind of CPU cooler do you have now, if you know? Loud is subjective and it would help to know that. Is it an Intel retail box one? [url=http://www.zalman.co.kr/eng/product/view.asp? idx=146&code=009]Zalman[/url] makes some good and very quiet ...		AdeptusTech Talk05-04-2006 at 07:24 PM
RE: Creating Data Collection webpage...
Short answer: yes. Longer answer: This is the type of question that I am often tempted to answer with "If you had to ask, then probably 'no' for you" -- and I am not trying to be rude. Yes, it is possible, but how to best go about it depends ...		AdeptusTech Talk05-04-2006 at 03:12 AM

That is only a convention. It might make it confusing to follow the instructions for some tasks (if he were to try something like installing Linux), but in the end it doesn't matter and works exactly the same. Switching the drives around now would ...		AdeptusTech Talk05-03-2006 at 01:36 PM

It looks like it isn't getting any signal. If you are using a wall jack that you haven't used before, you may want to test it with a regular TV or some other way. Inside cable runs to wall jacks are often left disconnected until needed (to reduce ...		AdeptusTech Talk05-02-2006 at 04:32 PM

RE: I have a job, what should I buy...
That you have to ask about this tells me you don't really need / want anything right now. Don't look for something to buy just because you can. You will end up with some expensive item you don't need and no money when you realize what you real...		AdeptusTech Talk05-01-2006 at 03:03 PM
RE: vga to s video adapter
Unfortunately, the difference between S-Video and VGA signals is such that there can be no simple plug adapter. It takes a pretty complex device -- and yes, the resolution and quality will be limited. You should also be aware that not all graphics ...		AdeptusTech Talk05-01-2006 at 12:09 AM
RE: graphics card
If you don't play games (at least for now) and don't do anything else specialized, then you might want to consider a motherboard that has integrated graphics onboard as well as a slot for a graphics card. That will only add a small amount to the ...		AdeptusTech Talk04-28-2006 at 06:42 AM
RE: Windows Installation
It's not something that comes up a lot. I've only ever needed to do it once and I used the classic Linux fdisk. I am quite certain Microsoft doesn't provide anything that could be used that way -- although, there might be some third party parti...		AdeptusTech Talk04-28-2006 at 05:24 AM

RE: installing/unistalling SUSE 10.0
Correct. Your Windows partition will be reduced by whatever amount you choose to give to SuSE, but it will all be there and you will be able to select which OS to boot. Provided nothing goes wrong, of course. :P The usual warnings apply. This wo...		AdeptusTech Talk04-26-2006 at 09:29 PM
RE: installing/unistalling SUSE 10.0
You can. What will happen is it will resize your Windows partition to make unallocated space on the drive, then create Linux partitions. The YaST installer of SuSE 9.0 and later (if you have an earlier version then you shouldn't use it, as it woul...		AdeptusTech Talk04-26-2006 at 09:15 PM
RE: Microsoft WGA Becomes Nagware
I am not sure what "custom built Windows" is, but the activation file backup only works for the exact same product key on exact same hardware. You can use it to avoid having to re-activate after a format, but I can't think of any way it could h...		AdeptusTech Talk04-26-2006 at 07:47 PM

RE: Use Ubuntu Live to backup data
Perhaps we have been going about this the wrong way. Instead of trying to figure out how to back it up with a Linux LiveCD, perhaps we should be talking about fixing Windows. If the file system mounts under Linux, I am sure any problems with it c...		AdeptusTech Talk04-25-2006 at 01:37 PM
