This all started with a browser hijack by some site called WinAntiVirus, or perhaps WinAntiVirus2007? To make a long story short, I tried to get rid of it using AdAware2007. Having no such luck with that, I decided to use SpyBot Search and Destroy. However, when I did a search for it, I found...

Well, drlex, et al, I finally got it up and running. I got the OS X 10.4 upgrade DVD, and had to load OS 9.2.1 to run it. I thought I could run the upgrade just by holding the C key, but no, I had to completely install 9.2.1, then the OS X icon showed up on the desktop where I could finally...

OK, I a purchased a OSX 10.4.9 Tiger Upgrade on eBay. I have a G4 OS 9.2 disk, so I could always use it anyway. It is my understanding that I could do the upgrade and keep my files and programs intact. The auction also came with a Developer Tool xCode and CD Disk, which I have no clue what do...

Please forgive the typo, I know it causes confusion and can be a waste of good advice. It was late, as it is now and my eyes are/were crossing. It is 10.0.4, and ran like a tiger. Alas, I purchased the Mac on an auction site, and the seller did not bother to include the OS DVD or CDs whichever...

I have a G4 with a 1Ghz processor and 768 MB RAM. A 30GB Primary drive and a 120GB secondary drive. I've had it for about 1 year and it's never given me any problems until now. I started it up, and it began to load updates. One was for QuickTime, and the other was a system update. The updates...

Thanks for all of your suggestions. I've had heating problems with this system from day one, about 2 years. It had a 400 watt psu with 1 fan inside then. I then upgraded the psu to a 550 with 2 fans inside. I also put some better thermal paste on the heatsink than the little patch that came...

Hi, I have an Intel D875PBZ Motherboard with a Pentium 4 Prescott 2.80C retail processor. 2 SATA 150 HDD, and 1 IDE CDRW and 1 IDE CDROM. 8x AGP eVGA 6200 Video, SoundBlaster Live 5.1, Belkin 4 port Firewire card. Internal multi-card reader attached to an external USB port. OK, that's my...

Nelviticus, Thank you for your answer. Now, to answer your questions, I don't have onboard sound on my motherboard. I had a heck of a time finding a board that supported a Prescott processor at the time, now they are ubiquitous and low-priced. At the time I was determined to get an Intel...

Hello, I have a Soundblaster Live 5.1 which works very nicely. However, I cannot find any documentation anywhere regarding pins on the card labeled SPDIF_IO. Sure, I found out what SPDIF is, but I was hoping I could use the pins to hookup a front headset and mic. On my old Live Value, I used...

electronicsfreak, Thanks for the tips. I ran the PC-Cillin scan. I went ahead and did the full scan. It didn't find any virus, nor did McAfee. The online scan did find a lot of cookies, which they deemed as spyware, whereas Spybot Search and Destroy deemed them harmless. I went ahead and removed...

Hi all, I just booted up my HP Notebook (N5470, P III 1.06GHz, 512 RAM, WinXP Home), and I saw an icon on my taskbar that said 'Hello'. It had the Wireless notebook icon next to it. It appeared in the Task Manager, simpy as Hello, but I saw no processes that showed hello or anything like it to...

Thanks for the replies. I had seen information on MSDN about the XP theming. Your posts reassured me that this is nothing to worry about, and not related to the problems I was having. According to Symantec, this is not the result of W32.Manifest. I did remove some of them from one machine, and...

Hello, I was having trouble with one my computers, an HP Pavilion N5470 notebook. I could not run or reinstall my PDA sync software. I then noticed that there were files in it that have a .manifest extension. For example, I have a palm.exe file, then a 1k palm.manifest file next to it. A search...
