I was working on someone's computer last week, and suspected that some of the software on it may have been pirated. One area that I have a question about relates to Windows Update. I had heard that there were piracy checks in one or both of the Service Packs. In the case of this system, it is...

I was wondering if someone might be willing to make a simple shockwave director file (the one with the dcr extension). What it's for: It would allow for easier testing of a particular bug in the Mozilla Firefox browser. (Just to let you know, I will probably upload the file to the following...

I setup a new system that will not boot/post. Summary: After turning on the computer, the monitor fails to receive a signal -- it stays in standby mode, or something like that. As for the rest of the system, the hard drive and Optical drives appear to be working (or at least one of the optical...

Well, I figured that this might be a better place to post this than the Windows forum since it applies to Cygwin. I just thought I'd see if anyone could make a binary of word2x (http://sourceforge.net/projects/word2x/) for Cygwin on Windows.

Hello, I was wondering if it was possible to get PHP to display a date (say the month name) in a different language. The language is Romanian. I could probably do the same thing by making an array with the names of the months, and then retreiving the month number and using that. However, I am...

I was wondering if anyone here uses any specific editors for PHP development. For example, in the world of HTML you might consider Dreamweaver, in the world of XML, you might consider XML Spy for professional development. However, are there any editors particularly geared for PHP? Maybe one...

I ran accross someone selling a DSP version of Windows XP. Could someone explain what the DSP version is? I assume it doesn't have the same license as Retail?

I am having an issue where my monitor shuts off (goes black) and then comes back to normal all in a split second. It also makes a poping noise when it does this. One time, several seconds before it happened, I noticed that the screen started to get blurry. I messed with some of the monitor...

This question concerns Windows XP Home and Windows XP Pro.... I am trying to understand what the OEM License agreement is. I understand the Retail agreement: you can only install Windows on 1 computer if you have 1 license. To transfer Windows to another computer, you must remove it from the...

In an older computer of ours, the hard drive stopped working one day. It cannot detect the primary master drive when it boots up. So... I did some testing. The hard drive works if I put it in another computer (with the same cable or a different cable). However, what is really odd, is that if...

I had a DOS game where one of the video modes was interlaced. Basically it looked like a row of lit pixels. a row of dark (off pixels) a row of lit ones, a row of off ones, etc..., etc... Anyways, this is how my monitor is acting. It is capable of 1600x1200 resolution. However, as you lower...

I remember using a program that came with Windows 3.x that allowed you to automate tasks. For example, you could record mouse movements, mouse clicks, keyboard strokes all as a series of events. Then you could tie those series of events to a special hotkey and when you hit it, it would perform...

I have a friend who has Corel Print Office (which includes Word Perfect) and it is defaulted to the Spanish language. Can someone go through the step by step process to change the language to English? (Keep in mind he is reading Spanish menus and such).

I recently messed around with some of the gamma settings/color profiles in XP. Anyways, I didn't like what I did so I told XP just to not use any color profile. Now, everytime I first boot up my computer and get into Windows XP, after a few seconds the screen will all the sudden become...

Note: this is the first time using the program. All I wanted to do was put together several .mov files into one. I have serveral .mov files that I've tried to import into the timeline, however, everytime I do that the sound does not get imported with it. Ideas?

I have an XP Home and 98 machine. The XP machine is connected to the internet and a printer and scanner. The two machines are connected via a crossover cable. In the past I used XP's network setup wizard to allow my Windows 98 machine access to the internet via ICS. In addition, the 98...

Does the 867Mhz G4 Educational System allow upgrade/installation of a second processor? See this link: http://store.apple.com/1-800-780-5009/WebObjects/EducationIndividual.woa/183/wo/W0iK72Dor87u3INrqb/4.3.0.3.34.21.1.0.19.3.1.1.0?55,9

I have a friend who needs to get a new computer. He wants a Mac because the program he wants to use only works on the Mac. Anyways, I have several questions. 1) Is there any places that do comparisons between the latest PC systems and Mac systems to see how they perform? I've looked but could...

I have my two computers connected via a crossover cable. Whenever I try to transfer a large amount of files to the other machine, part way through the process it encounters a file that gives an error and stops the transfer process. I think it says it has something to do with the file name...
