  1. I have a hauppauge hvr-950 and 64bit vista home premium w/ media center. I am trying to connect to my schools analog cable and when I go through the setup menu in media center and select cable. It instantly says its done(didnt search for channels or anything). When I go to watch what it claims is setup, everythign is black and which and the bottom has a bunch of random horizontal lines w/ no sound. Any ideas?

  2. Hey i jsut got a dv4-1028us on a circuit city close out i installed warcraft 3 the frozen throne and it lags to no end. My much older desktop has no issue and runs smooth on the same wireless internet. It is brand new, virus free. I am not running it form the cd but rather an ISO image(same as my desktop). I have tried xp sp2 compatibility thing, lowered the graphics all to their lowest settings, updated video/chipset/network drivers. Any ideas?

    It is a 64bit vista system

    4gb ram

    320gb 5400rpm hard drive

    p8400 processor

  3. Hello,

    I was wondering if there is a good way to create a Directv PVR. I was looking for some sort of box(not a computer) that could connect to my tv and stream the data recorded back to the windows home server (not located in the same room as tv). I looked into sage.tv and it appears that it requires the home server to be right next to the sage.tv box. I also looked into Linksys's DMA 2100 but it appears there is no way for it to record back to the home server.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks.

    is there some way to do this with a slingbox or Pinnacle Pc to Go HD?

    anyone?

  6. Hey,

    i cant connect to my network. I'm running vista home premium. I can off and on get internet from my router but its not allowing me to connect to other computers. The wireless icon on the bottom right shows that its not connected to anything. When i go into control panel to try and search for wireless networks the pop up window to do so wont show up. I have tried system restore, and i have tried reinstalling the drivers for the network card.

    Also, when i hover my mouse over the wireless icon in the bottom right, it says "Connection status: Unknown Server Execution Failed."

    Any other ideas?

  7. With all the problems you are having, you need to reinstall your OS. Your drive may be failing, but not for sure. I would recommend doing a slow format when you reload the system. The slow format will check for bad sectors and if found not use them.

    that was the last resort, its just weird cuz one day its totally perfect. then the next day i just go on to browse the web and it continually crashes.

  8. Try booting into Safe Mode and defrag the drive. Also what are your laptop's make and model plus specs?

    its a laptop made by cyberpowerpc.com

    I believe is an MSI base.

    Its a Core2duo t7400

    2gb cosair ram

    Geforce go 7600 vid card

    120gb 7200rpm sata150 HD

    Thats the big things.

    Ill try defraging it now.

  9. Does the program you used have, and did you choose to make a bootable disk?

    well the program i was using did a sector for sector copy. i would just pop the vista disk is, it would read them all. then i would pop a blank disk in and it would burn all those files the exact way they were on the vista disk to the blank disk.

  10. Try this program.

    Roadkil's Unstoppable Copier

    Product Description

    Recovers files from disks with physical damage. Allows you to copy files from disks with problems such as bad sectors, scratches or that just give errors when reading data. The program will attempt to recover every readable piece of a file and put the pieces together. Using this method most types of files can be made useable even if some parts were not recoverable in the end.

    Features

    The level of data recovery can be changed to enable very intense data recovery through to skipping damaged files completely. The data recovery process can be paused and resumed mid file. Logging can be enabled to record details on transfered files, their integrity and offsets of any errors. The programs language can be changed between English, Spanish, Russian, French and German. Multiple directories structures or single files can be dragged and dropped onto unstoppable copier for transfer.

    ok i used that program and saved the files to my desktop, then made it into an iso to mount to teh DVD, but its not bootable...which file in the windows folder should i select to be the boot file? i saw no .bif files.

  11. Hello,

    I have a window vista home premium disk that has a couple fairly bad scratches. I need to reformat my laptop with it but my laptop cant read it. Although my desktop is able to read it perfectly. Is there a way i could just copy the vista disk? I have tried nero and it gets about 50 percent the come up with an error.

    Thanks

  14. Hey,

    I currently ahve a computer in my room with the a8n-sli premium. I recently purchased a KVM switch so i could connect another computer in my room. The internet to my room is already routed to multiple computers. I was wondering, since thre is 2 NIC cards in the a8n-sli premium motherboard could i connect one port to the internet and one port to the other computer. Well, this didnt work. But is thre a way to do it with out running another internet line/routing a router. I inatially got this idea from asus's site when about my mother baord it said.

    " Dual Gigabit LAN & AI NET2

    The integrated dual Gigabit LAN design allows a PC to serve as a network gateway for managing traffic between two separate networks. This capability ensures rapid transfer of data from WAN to LAN without any added arbitration or latency.

    ASUS AI NET2 remotely detects cable connection the second you turn on the system, and any faulty connections are reported back up to 100 meters at 1 meter accuracy.
