I was surprised at first that someone besides me remembers Highlights, but after a quick Google search to come up with a relevant image I discovered that it's still in production, which... well, ok, perhaps that's not so surprising either.

Anyway, remember the 3-2-1 Contact magazine?

I wonder where all that effort for the 5th generation project went to. I really felt down went bossman told me "we don't do research here" when I suggested Prolog to solve a problem instead of "The Java".

Hi,
I got this PC with an MB integrated GC which is a nvidia Gforce 6500 lite without TV out. I'd like to get a GC WITH tv out to install in the pc. Of course this should be slightly faster than my version but I don't want to give $$$ , which nvidia model do you recommend with tv out and not too expensive ?
thanks

thank you for your post.I've looked into local shops and this models is sold 95€, the model 8400 with also 256 MB is sold 65...30€ is a big difference so do you think 8400 will make a good DX9/TV out solution to replace my onboard 6500?
thanks!

That'll work just fine too if it has TV out.

Attached image is the response I got from 4chan when I asked them this question. I've fucking had it with that place. I'm hoping you guys can be more civil, and maybe even helpful.

I bought a Gateway MT3422 laptop. I'm trying to install XP on it instead of Vista, to try to improve performance (it's not nearly powerful enough to run Vista well).

I format the hard drive and install like normal. All the system files seem to copy over fine (except for one .dll file related to IE, which I plan to uninstall anyway), but after it restarts to do the setup portion of the install process, I get an error about "Insufficient System Resources Exist to Complete the API", and the computer reboots, continuing to do so every time in an endless loop.

I tried reformatting, this time using the full format option (rather that quick format), but it still does it.

Any ideas about what to do?

I can't be of much help, except to say "I tried the same thing".

I could not find drivers for my HP, and ended up installing a cracked version of Vista Ultimate.

After a couple months of use, it's not that bad. (Not that good either.)

Honestly, If I could help you I would.

Maybe you could try a warez Vista install, or get used to Linux?

>I've fucking had it with that place

If all you're going to post are questions we shouldn't have to answer then great, stay out.

The spam in /g/ isn't as bad as it used to be since the system32 meme, but if you aren't going to contribute to a place that never promised you anything, asking for something is not harmless.

Yeah, I realize that complaining about a thread that is "only" two weeks old on this board might seem silly. Bumping crap like this still doesn't help though.

And this is an imageboard after all. I'll start doing my part to get some decent threads going now...

>> No.9  

Wild guess, the laptop has a SATA controller with a buggy (P)ATA mode--XP expects a pre-2002 IDE controller to be present. Not something you usually think about lacking drivers for, but XP is six years old now.

There are workarounds...check for a firmware update for your controller that fixes the ATA "emulation" mode. Barring that, you'll need a floppy drive or a copy of XP, a blank CD, free software called "nlite", and your SATA controller's XP drivers.

http://news.softpedia.com/news/Install-Windows-XP-On-SATA-Without-a-Floppy-F6-47807.shtml

I've undergone the same process on a new Dell laptop that was unavailable with XP preinstalled (I'm a linuxfag who's married to Autocad, and Vista does not play well with virtualization).

Also, not your personal support, etc.

I have to raid 4tb of unraided data on various 320, 250, 200, 160 drives.

What's the cheapest way I can raid this.

>> No.2  

Be more specific. Raid 0 != Raid 1 != Raid 5, etc.

>> No.3  

I was looking at raid 5.

I have a server with 32bit pci, I was thinking
sata raid card and 500gb drives, but that is still about 1800 bucks just to break even at 4tb raided.

>> No.4  

How about you fuck off instead and get a bunch of drives that are the same size. We're not going to wipe your damn ass for you.

>> No.6  

Sounds like someone missed the prozac train today.

>> No.8  

Don't bother with hardware RAID, it is an endless road of pain and suffering. Just go for software RAID. If you want to just go for a RAID 0 equivalent (no redundancy) you can just chain all the drives together using LVM or something. That will reduce the MTFB (mean time before failure) as if one drive dies, you lose everything. Another option is ZFS. If you don't know what that is, google it.
