An old question by Norm X[_2_]
Hello, I am repairing a netbook I love, again. Sorry to ask an old question but all memory of past software was lost. The software I used (upon Paul's suggestion) listed all 8 USB ports and gave information for each port. I even found a better program with a similar name. Google search was...

Copy/Paste Fails? by [email protected]
I am experimenting with windows explorer copy/saves to do backups from internal hard drive to different targets: internal hard drive, external stick, external mini drive all because I find the back ups inconsistent, and even lose stuff. My total file/folder size is close to the stick...

Multi boot under WinXP-32 by Norm X
Hi, I'm setting up software on a 32-bit netbook that I restored. The new drive is a 32GB internal SSD from SuperTalent. New installation is always rewarding. I had an installation of Android_x86 on a tiny 8GB Sansdisk thumbdrive. Benchmarking shows the internal SSD is faster. After the...

Rotating/interchanging toner/drums? by Micky[_2_]
Is it possible to remove a partially emptied toner/drum from a B&W laser printer, put in a new one and use that for a while, reinsert the old one for a while, and then change to the new one again? Etc. This is an old Samsung ML-4500 printer, which was printing too light, but consistently, I...

DDR-2 voltages by philo
The other day I did a RAM upgrade on a machine with DDR-2 When I pulled the old RAM I noticed that one stick was rated at 1.8v and the other was 2.2v (I think..at any rate it was higher) It had been that way with no problems. My guess is that the mobo cannot assign different voltages to...

Time for a new HD by philo
It's time for me to perform a full clone of my 2TB main drive. I'm thinking of HGST just wondering if WD is pretty much as good perhaps the "black" series That said, since I mostly work with large folders full of photos, if I

How Can I Confine the Mouse Cursor to the display? by [email protected][_2_]
My mouse cursor will move beyond the right and bottom of my desktop display, and therefore be invisible. Very irritating (to me). How can I restrict the cursor to the desktop? It does not do this on the left or top. Thanks me

Need MSI Driver Disk for FM2-A85XA-G43 by [email protected]
Oh me - I re-installed my W7 Home Premium (X64) on a larger new hard drive in my FM2-A85XA-G43 PC, and I can't find the danged so-called 'driver disk' that came with the MOBO. Without it I have no internet connection, as is shown in the machine's Device Manager. I went after the drivers on...

CPUs by Bill Bradshaw
Why would people still be building high end systems using the Haswell versus Skylake? Is it a price or performance issue or both? I am gathering information while trying to figure out how I want to build my first system which will be way overkill for how I use a computer but I think it would...

Mother board with para port. by John
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130711 Anyone know if this is the old style parallel port rather than the add on card type? I have an application that uses a dongle in the port that does not work with the card type add ons. Thanks, John

After several hours usage kybrd & mouse input fail? by [email protected]
No I don't want to just fix it. I want to *KNOW* the reason. The USB-mouse and PS2-kybrd lose action. It seemed to happen often when I plugged a 1.5M USB-cable to my WiFi. I use mostly X86:Linux:Slakware13 but some comp.sys.raspberry-pi readers are hardware knowledgable. Probably related, is...

The travails of installing a different printer. by Micky
This story ends much better than the travail of the first printer did (which hasn't ended yet). This is NOT the Brother All-in-One b&w laser printer with document feeder, described in the thread, "The travails of installing a printer". It's a small Samsung b&w laser printer only, MP-4500, with...
