You don't want hibernate. You want sleep (standby) mode. If it's hibernating it won't wake from the remote and it won't record any scheduled programs.
I am not sure if MCE will allow you to schedule standby mode. There's a lot going on in the background. I Never tried it on my MCE systems. I...
I don't think that's a serial connector. I believe that's a proprietary Apple Mac connector.
Irregardless the way to go is the parallel port. Assuming the printer works (have you tried it with a desktop computer with a parallel port?) then it's probably the adapter you bought. In my...
The problem might not be the cable (probably isn't). Might be a TV or your computer. You need to find out if the voltage source is inside the house or outside. Disconnect the cable outside from the first splitter, then see if there's still voltage from coax to ground. If there's still voltage...
No guarantee it's the charger board. Could be a bad/weak PSU. Replacing that is going to cost about the same.
The charger board is not a replacement done casually. Laptops are a bitch to take apart and even harder to put back together.
Dead short is the only reason for something like that - been there, done that, bought the T-Shirt. Incredibly unlikely that it was a defective PSU. PSUs are tested when they leave the factory.
The 5 volt or 12 volt rail got shorted to ground. Crimped wire, a power connector poked into a point...
Definately update the Firmware. I've seen this plenty of times on Linksys routers, and a firmware upgrade usually fixes it. If it doesn't fix it, then buy a new router. They're cheap.
My first Media Center PC was an Athlon 1200 and I would consider that the bottom end. It was usable, but I had to disable GUI animations in Media Center and it felt sluggish.
Both my current MCE systems are running under Athlon 2000+ CPUs and performance is great.
Replacing the caps is no guarantee. Once the caps have actually leaked the damage could already be done. Mobo regulator could have been damaged or something else.
ALWAYS use the cable seclect jumper setting on a Dell system. Dells don't like master/slave settings.
No reason it shouldn't work on the Dell unless there's a secondary issue like a bad PSU.
