Correct me if I am wrong, how is drop box more then one step? if you just save everything in your drop box folder, then it does all the work for you, I have it set with my Mac, and my Desktop PC.

captain_twinkie

Depending on how much you need to sync you could use drop box.

I am a big fan of gbridge, http://www.gbridge.com/ you log in with your google account and then you add your friends onto google talk and then you can setup permissions based on the users and then you can also setup shares or also remote desktop, you can also use the same account and have it logged ...

Don't forget the notebook system software, and you can remove the the recovery partition, since your installing a different OS then what came on that machine, that part is useless to you and you might as well us it for some more space.

What app are you using to tether? If your using PDAnet are you using the paid version, since I know the free version after 30 days blocks https sites.

All four of mine.

Although in all fairness, I have never bought a lower end model…so I can’t speak for those.

Depends on the model, some are in the front, some are in the back

Possibly could have just needed to be reseated.

Sounds like a hard drive issue, since you stated you can't boot to the hard drive or it locks up with it tried to, generally when that happens it the hard drive, one thing you can do is disconnect the hard drive and see if you can boot to the cd drive, since you stated you couldnt even do that, and ...

captain_twinkie

Also what order did you install the drivers in? Some laptops and desktops of theres get EXTREMELY picky if you dont install the Notebook/Desktop system software first before the chipset.

captain_twinkie

You could try Flip4Mac.

Acording to this

Your better off finding a system with a 9800 in it

Is the hard drive the exact same size as the one before? I know some restore CDs/DVDs won't restore if its a different size.

o I am a huge user of VM software, I started using it about 7 years ago using VMware workstation in high school, and was hooked on the ability to toy with OS's, creating virtual networks, toying with server OS's and Linux. Well recently I saw that VMware released a new version of VMware workstation ...

captain_twinkie

I am wanting to upgrade my Socket 939 4600+ to either a AM2/AM2+/AM3 CPU, and get either DDR2 RAM or DDR3 ram, I am wanting to keep around $300, any recomedations?

So I am needing the CPU, Mobo, and RAM

If you happen to make a ISO of the CD they send with it, or have a XP cd, you can use WinSetupFromUSB to make a bootable Flash drive to reinstall the OS.

captain_twinkie

Yes I unmount the drives, tried it HFS+ with and without journaling, and Fat32.

And Yes the system has USB 2.0 Ports, its a 2.13 C2D Ghtz Macbook, with a Geforce 9400.

captain_twinkie

Nope, nope, nope and nope

captain_twinkie

Then why is using those exact same flash drives, atleast 10x+ faster on my windows machine?

captain_twinkie

Nope just directly to the port, ive noticed it happens with all 3 of my flash drives, but I noticed today that with all of my flash drives, its just the write is slow, reading is just fine. And read and write is perfectly fine on my external hard drive.

captain_twinkie

It is 10.5.8, and I have tried excluding the drive from spot light.

captain_twinkie

Since its a Macbook its in the usb ports on the side of the laptop, ive tried both ports with the same results

captain_twinkie

So I recently got a Macbook from work, and when ever i transfer files on to any flash drive, formated FAT or HFS or HFS+, the transfer is about 2 MB per second, and when I test it on my windows machine, it goes alot faster. And the weird part is if i connect my external hard drive up, it goes fast, ...

captain_twinkie

Sorry for not any more info, I currently just got a job at my local school district, and right now for the windows machines they are using either Zen network imaging, or DRLB server with clonezilla. So my basic needs would be to setup a PXE server, or a network image server to install a image that I...

captain_twinkie

Sorry I ment whole OS image, like Norton Ghost.

captain_twinkie

I am looking for some imaging software, either network, or with a external hard drive. For both PC and MAC. Preferrably a free program.

What all do you guys use?

captain_twinkie

As long as the screen size meets your needs for all your accounting stuff, you should be fine.

captain_twinkie

Well if size is a big concern, and if your only doing it for school, like notes and such, then if I were you I would get a Netbook, the Asus Eee PC, MSI wind, Dell Mini, Acer Aspire. My personal favorite is the MSI Wind. But I have also been eye balling teh Dell Mini 9 to turn it into a hackintosh.

captain_twinkie

Do you need the laptop for anything other then taking notes?

captain_twinkie

Well I got back from my vacation in PA on saturday and I had comcast over this morning, and they tested all of the lines outside of my apartment (finally) and finally replaced some of the lines outside, now things are running alot better. So I'll be testing it for the next few days but it looks like...

captain_twinkie

I bought the netgear because I thought I had issues with my hawking router, so it happened before it came into the picture

captain_twinkie

Yeah, after getting pissy with comcast they finally were convinced it was the lines and they are comming out to get it checked, ironically the time they choose to come out is when i go out of state on vacation.

captain_twinkie

Yes it drops when connected directly, and I have already gone through 3 modems for this issue.

captain_twinkie

But the interesting part, it still dropped when netgear was not even hooked up. The main reason why I had to have a wireless connection connected, was cause I share my connection with my neighbors.

captain_twinkie

I was using too routers to have more points of failure, AKA if the internet went out on all the computers in the house still with the Wireless farther down the chain it would reduce the chance of it being the wireless router. So if the wireless was just down, then I knew the internet was fine just t...

captain_twinkie

See I would agree with you that its a bad router, other then the fact that it works fine when hooked up to another router, it only does it when its hooed up to the modem.

captain_twinkie

Updated it, still no workie
