    Need help moving cable modem from on PC to other

    1) What is the service provider? 2) If the ethernet card is showing in the device list then it is installed. The cable modem will not show up. 3) If the service provider does not bind to the MAC address (all ethernet devices have a unique MAC address) like SethH stated, then do the following...

    Which OS for Radeon AIW?

    Iwill KK266R? If you haven't purchased it already then I wouldn't use it. As a KK266plus owner, I would never own a KK266 anything ever again. Or matter of fact anything using the VIA KT133A chipset. This chipset is pretty buggy and I've had to keep current on the VIA 4in1 drivers on my Win98...

    More Video Capture questions....

    Dan, If you want to just cut frames then both VirtualDub and TMPGEnc will do the job. TMPGEnc has a source range setting which is under the advanced tab under the setting button. Alan

    Just got the ATI All-In-One 7500 and...

    Dan, If you use the ATI MMC and uncompressed AVI for your captures then you will run up against the 4 gig limit pretty quick since your running Win98. I have not found anywhere in MMC to capture using multiple files. VirtualDub allows capturing to multiple files. As for the drivers, I...

    How many (major) operating systems are out there?

    Didn't see CP/M. If it we're me I would at least remove Windows 3.1x since they actually ran on top of DOS. (I don't count 386 enhance mode)

    How do you fill up a >20 GB drive?

    I have a 20 gig and 60 gig drive. Currently, The 20 has 13 gig free and the 60 gig has 53 gig free. I also capture my home videos (or capture shows from my ATI AIW) and create video cd's. When I'm capturing I can easily use all of my available space for the capture. If it wasn't for video or...

    Using Rechargeable NiMH batteries in the Marantz RC2000mkII

    Rayovac has rechargable 1.5v alkaline batteries. They used to be called Rayovac Renewables. I picked up a AA 4 pack for a little over $5 the other day. My son is using them in his GBA. I've reserved my Nimh's for my camera. My charger, which is a Rayovac Charger, supports Nimh, NiCD and alkaline...

    S-Video Connection Question

    I have one of the RS converters. It degrades the video quality some but not enough for me to run out and buy a S-VHS vcr. Normally I tape a show, watch it and tape over it. There is however noticeable chromatic aberrations. That bothers me the most. I did see a converter at Fry's for $4.95 but I...

    Help! Audigy and Soyo Dragon won't work!

    Actually I wish I never bought my board with the VIA chipset. From what I have read it's not just a problem with the VIA board but also with the Soundblaster. There is also suppose to be a timing problem with the SB Live's. I hear the Turtle Beach doesn't have a problem but I haven't tried it...

    What does your home lan look like?

    Buzz, Does Comcast require you to have special software (ie. login) installed? Have you tried this: Power down everything. Wait about 30 minutes. Power up cable modem and wait for it to be completely connected. Power up the Linky and wait for it to be completely connected. Power...

    I took too long to change the batteries in my remote

    Normally I would use a small wire brush and scrape it off or you could try baking soda with water and apply with the q-tip. If your in a pinch, use Coca Cola instead of the baking soda with water. Alan

    A VCD Question

    As far as I know there isn't any other software that works with the DVC II. You can get the lastest version for $29.95 from Dazzle. I wouldn't toss out the DVC II it's not bad for the money.

    VCD with Nero: any advice?

    I think this is a problem with PowerDVD. I downloaded the trial version and it stuttered when switching tracks. The same VCD was smooth on my standalone player. On my standalone there was a pause when switching tracks even though I specified zero pause in Nero. This is normal (at least on my...

    Cable box/VCR hookup problems

    I don't think the VCR senses the Cable Box. What it is doing is sensing the channels. The Cable Box only outputs 1 channel (i.e. channel 3 or 4) and handles the rest internally. If you use the bypass feature of the cable box then your vcr should be able to sense all the channels minus the...
