    Can I log "sleep" mode?

    Rfeenie, you nailed this one! I had done a complete reformat and win98se reinstall about 3 months ago. I have been having probs since then. After some searching on the DELL website, I found the info about PHDISK, and how to reinstall the PHDISK file. Yes, I was getting an error message about...

    Can I log "sleep" mode?

    Alternatively you can bring up your system resource meter and let it graph what's being used and what processes are taking up CPU time and then look at the log/graph in the morning... My system resource meter does not seem to give me the option to log/graph the info...it only seems to give me...

    Can I log "sleep" mode?

    Hi All! I'm having fits trying to figure out what keeps my system from "waking up" after going into sleep mode. Is there a logging feature that I can set to see what, and in which order, applications get shutdown or wakeup from "Standby"? I have a DELL PII-300Mhz laptop...

    Wiring Residential Home w/12ft cielings

    I'm not aware of any 10' drill bits, but I do have a 4' drill bit. They may make 4' extensions for it...check Home Depot. This assumes you have a tall enough crawlspace to work in, of course. Good luck, Jon

    RAM Question

    OK, I just want to get your opinions here. I think I know the answer, but I could be wrong. I have a PII-266 MOBO. I just got a 128Meg/100Mhz DIMM to upgrade. The guy at Fry's told me I will have problems with the RAM because it is 100Mhz and my bus speed is 66MHz. He said I needed to get the...

    Why Are My Speeds Slow?

    Thanks WyB... You hit it on the head! My TCP/IP buffer size was set to "0", I was able to set it to 32K and now my speeds approach those of the first 2 computers. Thanks again. Jon

    Why Are My Speeds Slow?

    Hi All, I hope someone here has dealt with, and solved, the problem I am having. I am connected to the internet by way of Cable modem. I am using the Linksys Cable/DSL Router (excellent device!) and an 8-port 10M/s hub. I have 5 computers connected to the hub. All cableing is Cat5. My...

    Need a LAN drop in my home office located in a barn behind my house

    I have a similar situation where I have two buildings about 100' apart. Right now I have an RG/58 (10Base2) coax cable between the buildings. It works ok, but I had some problems with a corroded connection so I looked into a wireless solution. I got the Lynksys WAP11. It claims that it will...

    Small Network Problem

    I'm thinking of replacing the Coax with the Linksys Wireless Network Access Point. http://www.linksys.com/products/product.asp?prid=157&grid=19 (it looks like you will need to Cut & Paste the whole link. How do you post a link here? This board keeps adding a ";" between the...

    Small Network Problem

    WyBNormal said:Get rid of the connector and fix it right I guess I neglected to make it clear that I DID replace the bad connection, but the impedance on the coax still stayed too high. Maybe the coax has stretched from being strung between the 2 buildings? I had continuously taped it to a...

    Small Network Problem

    I'm sort-of a newbie with networks, though I have had this small network up for a couple of years. My problem is that I just upgraded my server, now my clients seem slower. Some details: * I am connected to the internet thru a cable modem. * I have upgraded to an AMD K6-III, 333Mhz acting as...

    What's the right Oscilloscope to get?

    Thanks all, I think I'll be looking at 200MHz scopes. I'm sure I'll only need at least a 100MHz scope, but a 200MHz only costs about 10% more, so I'll probably get the 200. Thanks for all the help, Jon

    Dual Networks on one PC w/ Win98

    I did just what you are asking about 2 years ago when I got my cable modem. I used Sygate 3.0 as my DHCP server software...it took care of keeping the two subnets talking. I have 2 NIC's in my "server" computer; one that is connected directly to the cable modem, using the IP address...

    Hi All! I have finally decided to buy an Ocilloscope after 10 years of repair work without one! I will be using the scope to repair Computers, TV, VCR, DVD, CD, LD, and stereos. My question is: What should the scope's Bandwidth capacity be, to perform repairs on the above types of equipment...
