  1. I didn't notice that it had been cut off. I guess "Check Post Length" doesn't really work...

  2. iccaros: I'm curious as to which VIA system(s) have hardware mpeg4 decoding. I used a M10000 with a 1GHz chip for a while. It played DVDs great but stuttered on most mpeg4 video. I've also tried VLC's "on the fly" encoding, but it seemed very slow, and had poor quality, being barely watchable on a standard def TV... I speak only from my own experiences with this but if iccaros could get it working with that kind of a system, I've no doubt that it's possible. You'd still want to encode at a rate below your maximum throughput at whatever range your going for. You could transfer a large file from
  3. Over a reasonable distance, you certainly could. 802.11b has a maximum theoretical throughput of 11Mbps but degrades as distance from the source increases. For video, you'll most likely have to reencode the videos into a format that supports streaming such as VP7 http://www.on2.com/downloads/vp7-personal/ or WMV 9. Depending on your source video, you can probably encode up to 2Mbps over a fair distance, which is still quite good qualitywise. For audio, pretty much any codec that you can stream from, you can use. My favorite is AACPlus which sounds great even at low bitrates (as low as 40-50Kbp

  5. OK, here are the results of the scans (the scan that automatically ran only did C:\Windows\System).

  6. sari, My apologies for the delay. I cannot seem to run the online virus scan. The popup to allow/deny the activex control never shows up and instead I get brought to a page that says: "Error on downloading ActiveScan An error has occurred downloading Panda ActiveScan. Please repeat the process. If the error occurs again, restart your system and try again Possible causes of this error are: Not allowing the application's ActiveX control to be downloaded. Problems with the Internet connection. The error could be due to a download error or an installation error due to lack of hard disk space, p
  7. I have a legit copy of XP Home upgrade and was kind of annoyed that MS put something else unnecessary on my system that can't be uninstalled (that'll teach me to blindly install critical updates!) so I just went into the system32 folder and replaced Wgalogon.dll with another MS dll that doesn't do anything in particular, set it to read only, and rebooted. No more wgacheck.exe (or w/e it's called) in the task manager! The update will still show up as critical in Window Update, so you can just check the do not show box or leave it sitting there until October (just remember to uncheck it every ti
  8. Thanks for your reply. I installed the program and rebooted and get 5 or 6 blue screens saying "Cannot write to drive C:" or "Cannot write files to drive C:" and one other blue screen and it shut itself down (press any key to reboot but instead shut off). On the next boot, I selected safe mode and it booted into a blinking cursor and refused to do anything. After restarting, it is working. With those errors, I'm not sure if the program completed or not...

  9. Using your analogy, I'd would have thought it more to be like: You notice that your car's gas mileage has fallen. Upon inspection you find that your car needs a tuneup and your air pressure in your tires is low. Ignoring the need for a tuneup, you opt to inflate the tires to their proper pressure, thereby increasing gas mileage. I wouldn't be "messing with the engine" unless I went and did something stupid to my processor like physically taking it out and attempting the XP -> XP-M conversion to lower heat/power by enabling PowerNOW!. Something like that, I don't know how/why it works, nor d

  11. Very nice! PG2 actually quits now on shutdown. 4 for 4 shutdowns have worked speedily since then and no problems logging of from one account and logging on to another (PG2 used to crash and I'd have to use pgfix). Definitely a Windows expert, many thanks TT_75!
  12. hmmm... That's really not what I wanted to hear. I do remember that it used to run much cooler when I first got it but now my northbridge fan and PSU's intake fan are on the way out as well. The NB fan has seized a couple times already in the past year... I've built plenty of systems in the past but this is the only one that wants to crap out on me and after only 2 years =/
  13. Thanks. I've been using SpywareBlaster ever since Spybot recommended it. I haven't had shutdown issues when I was using SystemSuite 4 or 5 but the latest version conflicts with so many programs it's unusable... AVG+Sygate just doesn't cut it as well as the old SS did. Is there any way perhaps to change the shutdown function to run a program before shutdown (without using a batch)? I could then use pskill and terminate PG2 before Windows attempts to shutdown. There's plenty of "run at boot" but I haven't seen a good "run before shutdown" that I can use the normal shutdown button with.
  14. Well, i called around and found someone with a working compressor and I finally just did it. Temps dropped again on burn test. 200x10 1.525v not cleaned 61C burn 51C idle 200x10 1.525v cleaned 49C burn 44C idle 166x13 1.65v (stock) not cleaned >70C burn (reached that in seconds) 64C idle 166x13 1.65v (stock) cleaned 58C burn 51C idle That's a ~12C drop from cleaning and ~10C (additional) drop from voltage. I'm just going to leave the default for this processor for the time being since there seems to be so much objection to it here and ask somewhere like silentpcreview where undervolting/und
  15. Already done. PG2 seems to help with spyware/ads with block http on even over adblock in FF. I'm leaving it...
