    Ping OK but Website.. Nay..

    Hi, for about 6 months now I have had problems with a couple of websites hosted on the same server. Sometimes I am able to connect to them and sometimes not. I recently pinged them both successfully even though I couldn't access them through my browser. I also tried tried "tracert" but no...

    NexStar 3 + Vista

    Hi, I recently obtained an external NexStar 3 eSATA / USB hard drive (NST-360SU) and am having troubles getting Vista to recognize it. I first tried the eSATA connection but it wouldn't show up under "My Computer". When I plugged it in, I got a "waiting" mouse pointer for a second but nothing...

    Dual: Vista 32 & Vista 64

    True, but there's still a few incompatability issues some software. So for now, the 64 is for games and the 32 is for other.

    Dual: Vista 32 & Vista 64

    So if I create another (non-administrator) user accuount in Vista64 then the Vista32 files will be safe?

    Dual: Vista 32 & Vista 64

    Ok, I see your point. But my concern is something happening while I'm on the 64 and affecting the 32. I'm not too worried what happens to the 64 but all my important data is on 32. I'm just looking for extra protection for the 32. Like not being able to access the other partition at all.

    Dual: Vista 32 & Vista 64

    So if I password protect Vista64 then Vista32 will be protected? I'm not too sure about that. I will be protecting Vista64, but I don't think that's the solution to my problem.

    Dual: Vista 32 & Vista 64

    Hi, I just installed 2 operating systems on 2 partitions on the same hard drive: Vista32-bit and Vista64-bit. Vista32 requires my password to log on. But while I was using Vista64, I was able to access Vista32 and change a filename without having to enter a password. Although I was prompted to...

    How does it know?

    Ok, what if I didn't want to leave those entries on my PC any more? Is there a monitoring program that keeps tabs during an install?

    Harddrive disc image?

    I actually looked into this (Norton Ghost 14.0) and it doesn't have any options for a bit-for bit clone. I too am trying to clone a freshly installed Windows XP with drivers and service packs already installed, but so far no luck. Do you know something we dont? Please share:D

    HD image

    Hi, I'm trying to make an exact copy of my hard drive. What I want to do is copy my hard drive, bit for bit and make it bootable so I can reload it onto my formatted hard drive without having to re-install. I've freshly installed XP Pro with all updates and the partition fits onto a DVD. I've...

    Program Logger

    Also a good suggestion, but I guess what I really need is a program that's running while I install another program. For example: Program "A" would be keeping an eye on Program "B" to see what files and registry keys Program "B" is installing on my system.

    Program Logger

    Hmm, it sounds helpful. Will it tell me all the files and registry changes or will it just tell me that a program is trying to use the registry?

    Program Logger

    Or are the install logs completely accurate for most programs??

    Voice recognition

    It's part of Vista - Speech Recognition. You can to tell it to do just about anything you can do with a mouse, including drag an icon across the screen. In one example, if you're on a web page you can tell it to "show numbers" and it will put a number on top of each link or window tab. Then you...

    Program Logger

    Hi, I was wondering if there's a program that logs all the files and registry keys added during an install? There's a program I'm not sure about and want to see what it's up to when I install it. Cheers.

    AVG Ativirus + Windows Genuine Advantage

    Hi, I recently tried to install a prog that required Genuine validation. AVG Antivirus immediately stepped in and asked if I should "Allow for all" etc.. So I allowed and then the Genuine Advantage said there was an error. So I disabled AVG and tried again, but still it isn't working.. Any...
