    HP Laptophigh capacity Hi I'm l

    Just for kicks I checked a CSB brand battery and a Genesis. They both say made in Vietnam! I would also have guessed everything was made in China. As far a battery quality goes, I have found that you need to stick with OEM or top tier battery manufacturers like CSB or it is pretty much a crap...

    New building, need good key system

    Don't really have any recommendations, but I have bought quite a few Toshiba hand sets from KeyPhonesDirect.com and have had good luck with them. You might be able to get some good deals there. They also advertise they will refurb handsets for $35 ea...

    AMD Radeon 6850, 2nd monitor

    I tried to find some info on this particular card. It is odd that there seems to be a dearth of info on it as I can usually find an manual on-line. The point I was trying to make was that just because one of the dvi ports supports an analog monitor i don't think that guarantees the other will...

    AMD Radeon 6850, 2nd monitor

    I googled the part number. Is this it? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150515 If you zoom in on the photo that shows the DVI connectors only one of them is marked VGA so only one analog monitor supported. You will need a monitor with dvi connection for the second.

    DNS and Gateway correct? Try on a different wireless network ie at home. Don't know anything about Lenovo app store, but with Apple you need an itunes account. Do you need to establish some kind of account to enable the app store? You can buy an ipad 2 for $399 :)

    Dell T5400 Video problems

    you could try the F8 key again and this time select LAST KNOWN GOOD configuration. Dell should also have and option on boot up to run diagnostics. Have you tried that? If no boot option for diagnostics there should be a cd to do that.

    Potential Virus? DLLTools.dll

    F-secure has updated their definitions so my file is now detected as clean. I ran it through VirusTotal and Panda also calls my file clean. You might check to see if Pandas latest def files are still flagging your file. FYI, F-secure was flagging my file as 'Gen:Variant.Barys.2063'. I...

    Potential Virus? DLLTools.dll

    I am not at work, but my av (F-secure) quarantined a critical app that we use yesterday. I think that was the name it was giving. We have had this app for over 5 years so I am pretty confident it is OK. I submitted it as a false positive so will see what happens today.

    Laptop with a 1920x1200 screen

    lenovo - Really expensive... My little bit of research looks like Lenovo and Apple may be the only ones doing 1920 x 1200. You might look for a refurb unit to save some money. http://biz.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=7025459&CatId=2511...

    Advice for UPS Purchase

    I have one of these "Kill-A-Watt" power measurement gizmos: http://www.amazon.com/P3-International-P4400-Electricity-Monitor/dp/B00009MDBU They are all over the place so should be easy to find one. On a weekend or whenever you can power cycle your pbx hook one of these up and measure the...

    Advice for UPS Purchase

    We use an APC Smart-UPS 1500VA on our phone system. You will need to determine the max power draw of everything you want the UPS to support. Then you can use a tool like below to select a unit that meets your needs. If you have a vendor that supports your phone system I would check with them...

    sony vaio: a bit dissapointed

    I am a Lenovo (IBM) fan. Rugged design and great keyboard. If long battery life isn't a requirement I like to buy refurb T-series like: http://biz.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1734188&CatId=4936 If cost is no object buy a new one.

    Server HD Performance

    How big are your databases and who designed them? It could be that a db redesign could also fix your issues. I see you said you are going to SQL for the backend. That may make a HUGE difference. Is you network all 1G? With Access you are shipping a lot of data around. If the backed database...

    Server HD Performance

    4G of RAM should be plenty for Windows 2003 Server for that number of users as long as all you are using it for file/print/db server. Goombawaho's advice on "standard" server setup is good. Most of my servers are configured that way. What performance problems are you having? I would be very...
