<0> So, if I install Vista today on my laptop, and then tomorrow replace one of my 512MB SODIMMs with a 1GB SODIMM, will Vista have a problem with this? Will it think it's been installed on a new PC or something?
<1> I'd say replace your memory first and then install vista, it's only one day anyway
<0> today = have time to do it / tomorrow = no time :-(
<2> AndyatLaw: I dont think that'll be an issue at all
<3> any idea what does "BOOTMCR is missing" mean on start up?
<0> boot manager
<3> do i need my vista dvd to repair something?
<0> if it's the sink that needs repaired, no
<3> sink?
<0> lol
<4> hahaha
<4> :FD
<4> xdefiance good to go er what?
<4> What's the current status of cracks/activation bs
<3> it boots fine with vista dvd on, but not without it
<4> You need the dvd in?
<3> yeah, if the vista dvd is not in the dvd rom it gives me that msg
<3> "BOOTMGR is missing"
<4> wtf
<3> ctrl+alt+del to restart
<5> is the upgrade to vista from xp smooth?
<3> do you need vista dvd to enter safemode by any chance?
<6> why would you?
<3> why would this vista needs the dvd to start?
<7> um, hmm
<8> Yeah what he said
<9> BLAH
<10> hey, you stole bb's liner :D
<10> naughty barry :D hiya, how ya doing
<9> good good
<9> you sulwyn ?
<10> good, too
<10> :)
<10> just saw an amazing movie :)
<10> Pan's Labryith
<4> I have that.
<4> Kinda hesitated though cause espanol
<4> eng subs
<4> bah
<4> So what's the reccomended rls?
<4> xdefiance or "billgates"
<3> anyone had a problem instaling vista over an hdd that had xp b4?
<3> thats been formatted b4 installing ofcourse
<11> is it allowed in here to ask a question about an activation crack for vista
<9> no
<12> someone should make a sidebar gadget that displays cpu temp
<8> There are several gadgets that display CPU related info
<12> not temp though
<12> there are some that show usage etc but i did not see any that will display temp
<12> i doubt a gadget can do it though
<10> if i'm not mistaken, temp info is more related to how the cpu is designed, but i could be wrong
<12> yea
<12> it will need some configuration to work with a spcific cpu
<8> CoreTemp is the best temp monitor for Core Duo/Core 2 Duo presently
<10> rest of it ain't an issue, afaik
<8> Someone just needs to turn it into gadget
<12> i will check out core temp
<8> People worry too much about their ****in' temps
<12> i was using the asus probe but it's too bulky
<10> or turn moodll into a gadget
<12> well i saw this e6600 fan stop at one point
<10> agreed, bb - just put your hand on the case and see if it's burning your hand
<10> if it is, ok, it's too hot
<12> and i read many people have experienced the fan stopping
<10> otherwise, it's fine
<10> that's my personal opinion, heh
<10> and a lot of cpus have gotten new designs where fans don't work 24/7
<12> if you are overclocking it's good to knwo the temps
<8> If it's running, it's ok, unless a fan dies and then it's an issue, but only then realistically
<12> if you are not then you don't need it
<10> that's what i've heard
<10> and read
<12> the fan stopped at one point but the mobo warned me
<10> don't remember details
<10> yeah, if it's a danger, the puter *will* warn you, somehow
<8> Cool... might have just snagged two more Voodoo II cards and a #9 too
<8> BLAH
<13> windows Vista is like totally coo but on my laptop it is a real drain on my laptop battery, i'm getting like 1/3 less battery juice at least.
<13> :( que malo
<8> That will improve over the first week
<14> how much does Windows Live Mail cost?
<13> i wish i can use a mouse combination or a mouse gesture to close an application or a buinch of applications on the taskbar..
<8> You can: it's called Right-click, Close :)
<13> hehe
<8> Harlock you alive?
<8> Bleh
<15> yep
<15> just got home
<8> So, if I have a SCSI controller, and a SCSI drive, and I get the 68 pin cable to connect them... but the cable is designed for 2 devices, and it has a terminator... and I plug in just the one drive leaving one connector open... is that a reason for the controller to not see the drive, maybe?
<15> no
<15> leaving connectors open is fine
<8> The controller ID is 7, that's the default, all the jumpers are stock... the drive is ID 0, default, all the jumpers are stock
<8> The drive powers up but the controller just never recognizes it or sees it, so I'm stumped... guess it's just a bad drive and I got screwed on the deal
<15> this is the sca drive with the adapter?
<8> No, I can't afford the adapter for that one, this is the regular Baracuda with the 68 pin female
<15> 9gb?
<8> Was brand new still in the Seagate packaging from what I could tell, maybe not
<8> 18GB, 7200 rpm Baracuda
<15> oh ya
<8> The Cheetah is 9.1GB and SCA
<15> well, what is the term power set to on the drive
<8> Would love to try that but $20 for a damned adapter, just can't do that yet
<15> st118273?
<16> i have some sort of scsi adapter at home
<8> ST318416W Baracuda
<8> Right now the drive jumer for TP (I'm ***uming Terminate Power) is open
<8> It has a TP To Bus setting, TP from Drive, and Term Enable, among other settings
<15> term enable does nothing
<15> so no jumpers on the id pins?
<8> No jumpers = SCSI ID 0
<15> hmm, maybe this drive actually has a term
<15> most lvd drives do not
<15> is the TE jumper on?
<8> Not sure which one that would be
<8> Oh, Terminate Enable
<8> No, it's not on, that entire jumper block is open, the one with the TP and TE stuff
<8> http://www.seagate.com/support/disc/specs/scsi/st318416w.html
<8> Gotta love those funky ASCII text diagrams
<15> see what happens when you enable SE
<8> SE or TE ?
<15> i'm lookign at the pdf manual myself
<15> SE
<8> Not sure what SE is, yanno
<15> single ended
<8> And that means what in this situation, just a single drive?
<15> no
<15> single ended scsi
<15> actually you said everything is open right
<15> you might need a jumper on TP to power the external terminator
<8> Ok, the cable has a terminator at one end, closest to the 2 connectors, it's about 24" long, wasn't expecting such a long cable
<15> i woudl try a jumper on TP2 1st
<15> might need one tp1 and tp2
<8> What manual page are you on
<15> 41/42
<15> hmm
<8> I see drive drawings, not jumpers
<15> the table on page 5 says this is a SE drive
<13> tonight, my GF bought some fried chicken from "Bon Chon" -- the best fried chicken in the world-- it was spicy and I needed a drink, so without any hesitation i took a can of lipton ice tea from the refrigerator, i knew this can of beverage did not belong to her, but likely belonged to her roommate, anyways, when i went back to my GF's room, she started going nuts about how selfish and uncaring I was for not asking her roomate for pe
<8> So what does that mean in this situation, single ended
<15> oh, i meant 41/42 og the manual pages not the pdf pages
<15> 40mb/s max bus
<15> no ultra-2 support
<8> Bleh
<8> I should throw all **** out in the street
<8> all this, even
<10> don't, sell it, don't throw it out
<15> anyway i think this my be a term power issue
<8> Page 43 of the PDF manual is what I'm looking at, that's the jumper block underneath
<15> i try enabling the TP
