I am trying to restore a Dell Optiplex GX270 small factor.
The motherboard has IDE1 and IDE2 connections. The former is unused,
and the latter is connected to the CD drive. The power cables
include a PATA (molex) connector, but no SATA. I have spare IDE hard
drives, no SATA drives. I think...

Toshiba Satellite A85 S1072 Driver Problem by
[email protected]
I am trying to resurrect a Toshiba Satellite A85 S1072 laptop.
I have XP SP3 installed on it, and have resolved all the drivers
except for the Ethernet. I have found and tried two drivers:
sa85lanx.exe
tm4wlanutilax.exe
But XP Device Manager still shows the Ethernet to be bad.
What I believe is...

Cheap USB flash drives by
Norm X
Hi,
At first blush, inexpensive USB flash drives might seem a good place to
install the many lovely Linux distros, a policy, I've pursed for many years.
(Windows cannot run on a flash drive only an internal drive.) Although not
my first USB flash drive, I purchased an 8 GB OCZ Rally2 some years...

wireless print server by
micky
To connect a printer that's not wireless to a wireless network, one uses
a wireless print server.
But what about a scanner? Do those connect the same way, with a
wireless print server?

BIOS Message by
[email protected]
During boot, a 3-line message is flashed on the screen which quickly
disappears before I can get a chance to read it, or copy it down. Is
there a way to freeze the BIOS to hold that message on the screen?
Thanks

Want fast SATA HDD, recommendations? by
~misfit~[_15_]
Hi group.
I have a tower system that I basically use as storage and backup for my
laptop HDDs. It has four SATA trayless removable HDD 'docks' (for want of a
better word) that I use to facilitate transferring data and doing backups.
It works well.

PCI Hard Drive (IDE) Controller Card by
tb
I have A Trinity 400 (S1854) motherboard that goes back to 1999.
Currently, it has an 80GB IDE/PATA hard drive installed.
It is my understanding that the BIOS of a motherboard going back to
that era has a 137GB (or so) limit in terms of hard drive size.
I would like to install a 320GB IDE/PATA...

Why don't ePaper-devices do apps? by
[email protected]
We know that epaper takes half a second to update its
screen, so it can't keep-up with keyed input.
But can't a method be found to buffer a
number a chars, between screen updates. Or some
other solution.
And why shouldn't it have an email-client and a
'lynx-like' http-fetcher?

Will a processor by itself make a difference in video game resolution? by
Doc[_2_]
I installed an Nvidia GTX 460 video card to boost the gaming
experience. Looked far better than the 8600 GT I'd been using. Then I
went from an E8400 Core2 Duo processor to a Q9550 Core2 Quad
processor.
I don't know if it's some placebo effect but it seems like the
graphics is even better after...

I have a Brother MFC-J410W multi-fuction printer (fax, copier, etc) running on my

New thread by
Norm X[_2_]
Hi,
?Does anyone here have experience with ASRock OC Tuner:
http://www.asrock.com/Feature/OCTuner/index.asp
Selecting the version for AMD RAM and a non AMD MOBO might be confusing.
However, just to be safe, I guess I should try the version for my MOBO
first.
