I understand it a little better now. The first backup took a little time because it was a full backup. The next four backups just backed up the changed files and the size of the first backup kept increasing. When I clicked to "manage space used by this backup," there was only one backup...

Hi, I have a question about Windows 7 Pro backup utility. I've been using it for awhile, but it doesn't appear to be making incremental backups all the time. I have the settings set and during the first three to four backups I could tell it was doing an incremental backup because of the small...

Probably not the best subject line, but I have a 500GB SeaGate external HDD. It's really 465GB, but as I'm doing my backups I notice that the sizes of the files do not add up to the total space that is showing full on the drive. At this moment I have deleted everything on the drive and it is...

Thanks for the answers. I have exported and backed up my encryption key. I'm glad to know that I can indeed view encrypted files on another machine if I import my key on the machine that I need to view them. The only thing I don't like about Windows Encryption is that, as strongm said...

I don't know much about the VM box except that I can do what little bit I need to on it. While it's starting up, but before booting XP, try leaving your mouse hovered over the VB Window (or even click somewhere in the box) so that it'll associate your computer keyboard with it. If not, there...

I assume you have a wireless NIC card for your desktop. When you go to the Network and Sharing center, under Manage Network Devices, do you see your wireless NIC card there? If so, disable it and then re-enable it. If you do not see it at all, you may have to reinstall your wireless card. You...

I wanted to see if someone who has really played around with Windows file encryption could help me understand it a little better. I have Windows 7 Pro and the ability to encrypt files, but I'm confused a little as to how portable the files are. Is it true that encrypted files can only be...

I recently received a Dell Vostro 3550 laptop as a gift. I'm also taking the A+ in a week or two and want to ask a question that I've always been curious about. The laptop has two USB 3.0 ports. Renesas Electronics is the driver and was set to start up in MSCONFIG. When I go to All Programs...

Ben, that it is what I'm wanting to do. My external HDD is USB 3.0 capable, and I wanted to get a card just like the one in the link you gave. I had read that expresscards use either USB 2.0 or PCIe. I was thinking, however incorrectly, that the slot was connected to either one or the other...

Wow, I did not know that. I thought it was just physically tied into one or the other, lol. Thank you for the help!

I bought an external HDD that is USB 3.0 compatible. My laptop (Toshiba L305D-S5928) documentation says that my slot is ExpressCard™ slot (ExpressCard/34 and ExpressCard/54). I may not have any idea of what I'm talking about here, but I want to buy an expresscard with two USB 3.0 ports on it...

I would first check it on another PC definately. If you have your domain names registered with another company, did you change the nameservers to point at the new server?

Hi Guys, Probably not the right forum to ask, but can someone direct me to a good video editing program that's either not expensive and worth the price, or an open source free one? I have about 70G of 8mm camcorder video that saved as huge avi files and I won't to compress them to a reasonable...

Can someone offer help with these two questions? 1. I have a Canon Pixma MX340 that takes cartridges CL210 and CL211. What kind of chip resetter should I purchase? 2. Also, can cartridges be reset after they've been refilled? If I purchase good cartridges from a seller that I like on Ebay, who...

I looked up in the parts store, and found the computer that my newer MB came out of, had a system case fan. So that's probably the problem. I know where to plug it up at, but where would it attach? Does it attach on the case somewhere? Specifically, the HP fan that's made for it?

When I bought a new PSU about a month ago, I mentioned it to the guy at the repair shop, and he said it could be a bad sensor. What does that mean?

Hi, I had an HP model a6313w with an M2N68-LA (Narra2) MB. I replaced the motherboard due to a problem, with the same model, but a Narra3 (I have no idea what that means). I pasted links below. The new MB was from another model HP called a6530f. Everything is fine, but when I start the PC up...

Thanks for the suggestions. The SyncToy is exactly what I was looking for, since in my case I wanted to keep all files contained in identical folders updated and synced on two PC's and the removable media. I checked out the Briefcase option also, but with Briefcase, Microsoft says,"You never...

Hi, This may not belong here and if so I appologize. I've always found this forum (site in general) to be the most direct and helpful. I'm looking for a way to back up new documents and files, or existing ones if they have changed, from only a few select folders. My situation is this: I have a...

I have a laptop about two years old that is now running Windows 7. Since I got a flat screen TV about a year ago, I can't find an efficient way to hook it up to the TV except with a regular monitor cable, which doesn't give sound. My laptop doesn't have an S-Video port either and neither...
