In the diagram above, the right branch down from the hub is meant to go to computer B and the left to computer A.

The point is to avoid the router completely. It's not going out over the NICs, that's not the problem, the configuration goes something like this: ISP | cable modem | hub...

The point is that the NICs are removed from the LAN equation and replaced by the 1394 but left as the inet connection, so it can't be the NIC drivers, it's quite possible that it's XP though, but I wouldn't see how the movement of files over Cat-5 cable vs. 1394 cable would be any different.

1.The Hub is 10Mbit and no, it is not manually configurable. 2.The network cards are 10/100 and I have no idea how to change the speed of the NICs. 3.As far as I know drive permissions are set correctly but I may be wrong. 4.My intention is to try and remove the hub and NICs from the...

Ok, this problem probably has a simple answer but I'm failing to find it. I've got two computers, each with their own IP from my ISP, they're both connected to a hub via NIC cards. Both computers are running Windows XP Professional. For the majority of the time that they've been hooked up to...

Well, that's exactly why I'm considering the investment. My system consists of an Asus A7V266 Motherboard, based on the Via KT266a cipset, AMD Athlon 1.4Ghz, and 1024MB PC2100 DDRRAM. So far I've been looking at basic ATA100 cards and the Adaptec 2 Channel RAID card as my main options. Let me...

I need to add either an ATA/100 card or a Raid card. I'm not exactly sure what RAID does or why I'd want it, but I'm planning on putting 4 100GB 7200RPM ATA100 drives on which ever I get. I've gotten a few bits of info, and I realize that there is a significant price difference, but I still...

Turns out it wasn't the IDE controller. Looks like the boot sector had gone corrupt, I used another drive with an NTFS file system, copied over the files I wanted and formatted that drive, reinstalled and moved the files back over. Funny thing was that I'd had a similar error on another drive...

No, I didn't change any bios settings. The DVD-ROM was on it's own IDE ribbon on it's own channel. The HD was on a separate cable on it's own channel. I didn't switch anything around. There was no hardware work done until after the Unmountable boot volume error was given. I really can't get...

Last night I was installing a driver update for my brother's Samsung SD-612 DVD player. After the installation had completed I was prompted to reboot. I did, but when I got back into windows his DVD drive as well as his cd-writer were gone from explorer. I checked in Device manager and the...

I have a 17" Trinitron monitor that came with my Dell three years ago. I just built a new PC and have yet to upgrade my monitor. I use a resolution of 1600 x 1200 on my new PC and am wondering why it seems that the majority of the monitors I have read about have max resolutions below...
