Security Software...

2 questions.... 1) I have a network of 2 pcs, which connect to the net via a router. The 2nd PC is to be used by my younger sister to do her schoolwork on, browse the internet, stuff like that. What I'm looking for is a piece of software which will stop her from accessing any offensive...

Crappy Onboard Sound

Wow, that's helped a lot, can't believe something so simple would be the solution. I've done as you've suggested and it's made a huge difference, thanks :)

Crappy Onboard Sound

I have an MSI K7N2G motherboard (Nforce 2 chipset) which has onboard sound. According to reviews I've read, this is meant to be excellent. However, I'm finding the output to be very noisy, especially if there is no audio being played. I can hear a faint hissing in the background, and the...

I've just been offered.....

a Radeon 8500 (2nd hand) for £20 (roughly $30). Is that a good deal? I've no idea how much one of these is worth. I'd be upgrading from my GF4 MX (yuck).

Budget Printer

I need a good, cost effective printer. Colour is not important to me, so I thought I'd have a look at laser printers. I've seen this and was surprised by how cheap it was. However, I don't know much about laser printers - is it true the toner cartridges last a lot longer than an inkjets...

Parallel Data Transfer

I've just sent them a sh1tty email, hehe....... I was very disappointed to find that Laplink Gold does not support data transfer over a parallel cable in Windows 2000/XP. The reason stated on your website is that Windows 2000/XP does not support this method of file transfer in any way (taken...

Parallel Data Transfer

That software works great, thanks. And I've also found you can use the networking wizard within windows to do it do. It seems like Laplink are big fat hairy liars :D

I don't know an awful lot about refresh rates. Hmm, mine only goes up to 72 Mhz (@ 1600 x 1200). Is there any way to improve this? I was under the impression I had a fairly decent monitor (Sony HMD-A420 19"). I could untick the box that says show supported modes only, but I don't wanna blow...

Parallel Data Transfer

I have 2 pcs - 1 running Windows XP and the other running Windows 2000. I also have a parallel data transfer cable, so you'd think it would be easy enough to transfer the data between the two using Laplink. However, according to Laplinks website, Windows 2000 and Windows XP operating systems...
