how much harder is it to build your own Laptop
<r> In defense of RED his initial statement was correct and based on actual knowledge. He's just too darn polite sometimes to stick up for himself. He worked with my company for several months and saw the grief that comes from BRAND name PCS. He knows the problems associated with Dells, HPs etc. Sin...

<r> At one time you could by additional cache memory for a pc and install it directly into sockets on the motherboard. It also came in sticks similar to a ram chip and was called COAST (cache on a stick) this was an option still available until about 6 yrs ago. I think the last motherboard I saw wit...

If you look at the floppy cable you'll see it has a split and a twist in it. Any drives connected below the twist a...

<r> Laptops do not have to be slow when using XP. I've got a 600MHZ laptop that runs quite well. The problem with XP is after a default install many services are running that are not needed. You have to go through them and turn off the ones you are not using. That applies to all XP systems not just ...

<r> Dell cds do not normally ask for activation at least not recent ones. Activation is hard coded into the bios. For that reason Dell XP cds usually will not work with a clone pc. <br/> <br/> If none of the hardware has been changed or very little has been changed the install should go through with...

<r> 16 bit subsytem is similar to an emulator. When you run an old dos or win95 (16 bit)application it creates a virtual 16 bit environment for the program to run in. The program assumes it is running on the appropriate operating system. The error indicates that the subsytem is either not configured...

<r> From the log and the timing plus the recent 'mydoom' virus. I would say your server like all the others in the world right now is receiving email from the 'mydoom' virus. This virus can spoof an address which is why the 'unknown user' It will probably continue until the virus is under control. M...
