I haven't used it yet but a freind got me onto this one: http://www.tightvnc.com/

if your fsb is at 533 and your ram is at 1066 then your ram is always waiting creating a bottleneck ****Guys I'm not trying to spam here. It's just that this guy is simply finding any way he can to trash my P4, which, in my opinion is a good machine.

I thought Firewire was, but a certain person is disagreeing with me on this. He claims USB 2.0 is faster. Set me straight freinds.

An aquaintance starting bad-mouthing my P4 last night when I spoke to him online. He said: "man my athalon can do just as many calculation per sec as your p4 at half the mhz". I don't engage in "my puter is better than your puter" fights. But is his statement true? I mean, I'm no expert on...

I think mine is 250W. When do I need more? What do you have?

I had a problem that I solved and thought I would share this info. I had Nero Express and Intel's Application Accelerator (IAA) installed. Many times I was unable to choose the burn speed for Nero. It would lock in at 4x (the drop-down box grayed out), even though my drive is capable of...

Just ran a system restore on my C drive (Windows). Now, at the Windows Update page it shows that I need 3 critical updates. I am able to download them, but the install process is halted and the following error message appears.

Is there any difference in the way an MP3 cd is burned if you choose to burn the MP3s as a "data disc" rather than an "MP3 disc"?

I have an APEX 101W DVD player that recognizes many formats: SVCD, Jpeg, MP3, CD-R, CD-RW, regular audio, and Kodak picture show. I am unsure how to tag MP3 cds so that their titles appear in the onscreen menu when played in the DVD player. Case in point: My neice recently made an MP3 cd...

I know very little about DVD recorders and re-wriiters. Check out this DVD-R/RW and tell me what you know about it. Cendyne 4x Internal DVD-R/RW Drive I'm asking because it is about to go on sale and be subject to a mail-in rebate that will bring the price down to $189.98 To bring the price...

I have no idea why this is occuring. I extracted and compressed a cd last night using Lame 3.92 I *thought* it had completed compression -- all 15 tracks were present in mp3 format. I opened up EAC today and it automatically began re-encoding 3 songs. Does this mean that EAC wasn't finished...

This may have been posted before, but I'm going to provide the link regardless. It's how to overburn with Nero using the classic interface, rather than Nero Express. If I'm not mistaken, Nero Express can be changed to use the classic interface. Maybe somebody else can explain how to do this...

I'm running a 1.3GHz P4 (frontside bus 400MHz). I have 386MB RD RAM installed. Sometimes I issues commands that seem to require that my second hard drive begin spin-up. I was thinking this has to do with the paging file. I don't like this spin-up process because it freezes up my screen for a...

Have any of the administrators ever considered the creation of a section dedicated to PC hardware "deals" ? So many of us come across bargains that we may not need or want but it would be good information to share. If this information were to be posted it might help others out. The subject...

Have a look: Homepage ****CD Tray**** CD Tray is a Windows program that can be used to open and close the CD drive by clicking the popup menu from Windows system tray. Works with all CD drives, as long as the drives use tray mechanism. Can detect all the CD drives connected to the...

I think it's a good idea for keeping freeware links in their own heading rather than keep adding to the sticky that has been started under a different section. Hopefully people will pitch in to keep this section going.

If you have any URLs for Adobe Illistrator tutorials, or Adobe products in general, could you please post them for me. This is very much appreciated as my neice needs help with Illustrator for a college course she is taking.

I've been looking forward to this one for over a year. The development team changed from Gearbox to Ritual during midstream. I just wonder how many more months it will take?

In computer speak, especially within the gaming community, I have seen people reference others with the word "llama". Now, I get the gist of it. I think it means "trouble maker" or something equivalent to being lame. But if there is a more specific meaning I would love to know.

I have 3 partitions: C (Windows), D (Applications), and E (Games) On partition E I only have Quake 3 installed. I customize the game with my personal settings, extra maps, etc. Sometimes my Quake installation gets corrupt where uninstalling and re-installing do not remedy the problem. If I...
