Just as a note, if you are running XP on your PC you might want to make sure that the firewall is set to respond to pings. By default it won't. I'm not saying this is a solution to your problem, because you can't ping anything and the PC can't ping the Mac, but it could cause a headache later...

I'm pretty sure netuse just mounts a windows file share. So CJ if you want to mount a shared directory the easiest way, as Damrod said, is to do a command + k in finder and enter smb://<target computer ip>/<share name> If you really feel the need to use a command line you could open Terminal...

I think you guys are over-reacting just a little bit. They are annoying but Scott has has to pay the bills somehow and we all know bandwidth isn't cheap. They aren't really that intrusive, I mean, just don't hover over them. How hard is that? My only major beef is that they slow things down...

I have a Citizen Eco-Drive that my ex got me for my birthday last year. It's scratched to hell already which makes me wonder how you could live with having an expensive watch. I never wear it anymore anyways. I spend 90% of my day in front of a computer and I can't stand having it on my wrist...

So is this a site that you maintain? Do you need just one page or several pages and all the media associated with it?

your database should be whatever the database you created is called, but your hostname should be just localhost and your username should just be your username. No @ needed. For example: # what is your Mysql database server $database_host = "localhost"; # what is the name of the database we...

For most cable configurations setting up a router is as easy as plugging it in. You want to hook the cable modem into the WAN port, then your airport to one of the other ports. It is possible that you need a cross-over cable to connect the two network devices together. However, some newer...

The game industry's problem is not in the lack of good hardware, it's in the lack of good games. I haven't seen a console game that made me say "OMG I HAVE TO HAVE" since Goldeneye on the 64. Hopefully the Wii will change that, Nintendo seems to be the only company putting out something that...

I'm kind of curious, because I've been starting to look at C++, as to why it was able to compile fine and run with the missing method declaration and the incomplete include statement. Wouldn't cout be an unknown identifier because iostream is never actually included? Does the complier make some...

I'm not sure what this server admin thing is you are talking about but OS X has yet to ship with PHP 5 so you're going to have to upgrade it. You can get some nice packages to install PHP 5 and MySQL here.

You know, after all of these years using OS X and linux I never knew of the -s option... that makes my life so much easier hahaha...

The best part about this post is that instead of everyone going "Awww isn't that cute!" They all went "Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh! That poor Mac!!" Which is the same reaction I had, even though it was pretty cute.

I tried out the public beta. Without having a beefy video card there isn't much that I have found to be interesting. I prayed that even without a video card to support aero they would have _at least_ reworked the way windows were drawn in 'classic ui' mode so you wouldn't have the 'moving window...

I had a long gray screen as well, except I rebooted. I let it sit for over five minutes and nothing was happening, no drive chatter or anything... just a chirping power supply. Booted fine after restart though >_<

My guess is that you won't be able to get the OS X volume to clone, the Win install might though. There is a solution for cloning partitions with OS X. Use Carbon Copy Cloner to make an asr image (.dmg) of your hard disk and you should be able to restore it with disk utility. Another app, Net...

Maybe I missed something but why don't you take this to a manager or someone who has the power to tell her to turn it down? If enough people have problems with it you should all make it a point to tell the manager how you feel. If it's hurting your productivity why would the manager have a...

The disk would be a good bet. Have you checked the SMART status? It should be shown in Disk Utility. Disks are cheap anyways, you could upgrade to something bigger and not feel like you wasted money if it wasn't the problem. edit: oh you have a G4 iMac... might be a little more tricky. Do you...

Sounds like the index is getting wiped/corrupted. All your songs should still be on the iPod but the file it uses to build the menu is toast. You should probably be able to restore it using a third party application. Something to check into anyways. I doubt something is wrong with the iPod...

A friend and I are going to be starting a project soon. I've been trying to figure out what platform to develop for and right now I'm leaning heavily towards Java. I like the flexibility, the amount of free libraries that can consumed without having to recompile an apache module *cough* PHP...

I would try ebay, dual proc G5s seem to go at a decent rate. I would think with the 9800 Pro and RAM that you have you should be able to get your $1200. Check out some current auctions, see what people are getting for theirs. You could also set a reserve if you are worried about the bid not...
