My parents have been persuading me over and over again to do something about our wireless internet
connection. No, its not that the router has any problems connecting the computers to the internet.
My problem is that i want to connect my computers together to enable the sharing of files,
programs, and most importantly, my printer. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to use the already set
up wireless connection to link all the computers together. I've done networking with cables yeah
but never with wireless. I've tried the wizards Windows XP provides to create ne...

Grid computing is a method of solving complex mathematical equations using several computers at the
same time. Here's how it works. Special software is installed on a server and the complex
mathematical equation is loaded into the application. Then client software is installed on several
computers connected to the server via LAN, WAN, Dial-Up, or Broadband. Once the software is
installed, the client informs the server that it is ready to start working and the server sends a
piece of the equation to be computed. Once the client finishes the computation, it return...

I am considering taking a career involving computers. I was wondering what kind of computer field
does everyone reccomend. I have been told that Computer Engineering is the biggest thing which pays
the best money. I would like to be involved with working on computer parts and learning where
everything goes. Also I would like the money to be good. Anyone have any suggestions as to what
kind of computer field I should take?...

Man, I've been waiting for this title to come out for 2 years now, and I finally got the demo
last night, and it ran at 7 frames per second because there's some problems with certain video
cards... My computer is more than well equiped to run this... ticks me off /mad.gif"

I don't know if that is the right title but here goes. The computer I'm on is connected to
the internet via dial-up and has a printer connected to it. My computer has no internet connection,
but has many graphics programs and things that I would like to transfer the the internet connected
computer. I had the computers networked when I had highspeed internet and a cable modem, but
I'm not sure how to network them now that their both not on the internet. So my question is,
how do I network these two computers? (I know it's probably very simple)...

For the past month or so my computer seems to be much slower than usual, even when running through
tabs on FireFox or when MSN notifications come through they seem a tad laggy. Playing Gunz the
graphics seemed a bit bung (as in lagging behind), I mostly thought bleh nothing serious. The other
day I went out and cleaned all the dust bunnies out of my comp, fans, cpu fan and heatsink, mobo,
nooks and crannies etc to find that my motherboard is reporting my cpu as being 70-80 degress
celcius just in the BIOS :| (motherboard temp is around 25-30 which is normal). And toda...

Hey guys, I been lurking around checking out some forums, Unix/Linux pages, and I found some funny
signatures that I want to share with you guys. Videogame forums are also good places to find such
signatures. If you have any others you want to add up that are good ones feel free to do so. Take
in mind that the following signatures are Tech-related, cause I like tech stuff. Signatures: 1) One
picture is worth 128K words. 2)The UNIX philosophy basically involves giving you enough rope to
hang yourself. And then a couple of feet more, just to be sure. 3)The difference ...

about carbon nanotubes, so here's a brief description. Carbon nanotubes were discovered in the

molecules composed of 60 carbon atoms, and they measure about 1 nanometer in length. These
nanotubes exhibit some extraordinary properties that could have many uses. For example, they are...

Hello Folks, Its been long since i've posted so thought i'd keep myself alive by posting
up a useful tutorial. I know how hard it can be to not know about something, and ask around with no
clue of whats goin on. So i've made sure that every word in this tutorial is understandable by
any new user with the least knowledge of a PC and Networking.

you have the right cable. A Right cable would be a Cross-Over LAN wire (PC-PC). ...

As a science fiction reader (and writer), the one gadget that I would love to see which isn't
widely available yet, is the wearable computer. It's a screen shown inside a pair of sunglasses
and a glove, which allows one to 'chord'. Chording is brilliant, you make a letter by
combinations of finger presses, and other movements / gestures. So you can type one handed, nor do
you need a table. I suspect that chording never took off because people are inherently too lazy to
learn anything other than 'qwerty' unless they have to, which is why chording k...

I was trying to get a good browser that supported both my programs and my alignment for my website.
I downloaded ALL of the big ones. Opera, IE explorer 7, Firefox, netscape and msn (lol I wasn't
getting lucky). Though I havent gone in debth I have rated them as follows: First: Opera Opera has
some features none of the rest have including mouse actions. It support both IE explorer made pages
and Firefox made ones. Its easy to switch just by going to the options pannel. The theme is easy to
change but the toolbar isn't quite what you would get from firefox. Sec...

The latest Firefox browser, Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.1.6)
Gecko/20070725 Firefox/2.0.0.6, has lots of problems. I find that it does not work well with .asp
pages, crashes often when browsing .jsp pages and when it crashes it deletes your page history.
These are just a few of my huge list of problems. I would use Safari, but it is not very secure.

I don't know much about networking but I'm trying to learn more by setting up my home
network. I have one desktop computer running Windows ME and one desktop computer running XP Pro,
I'm using a router and a cable modem to get them connected to the Internet. My main goal is to
be able to share files between the computers so I don't have to be copying files from one and
moving it to the other etc.... My first question is am I gonna be able to do this without a
Network Hub? I've tried different things such as assigning static IP addresses to each ...

is normal for home usage... my main computer at home, as well as the daughter...

I like to share our broadband modem and access Internet from the second computer. The 2 computers
are not connected to each other. I am considering setting up a network of these 2 computers using a
wireless access point and 2 wireless network cards. I assume the access point and the braodband
modem will be attached to one of the computers and the other computer will be able to access
Internet through the access point. Is there any other way of sharing the modem eg. using adapters/
extensions, like sharing the telephone line? ...

On April 16th, 2007, North America had experienced one of the most disturbing news, aside from
Columbine and 9/11. This was the VA Tech Massacre. Toronto Star Frontpage headline of the
massacre. Reportedly, the shooter, Cho Seung-Hui was 23 year old and of South Korean descent. At
07:15, he started his rampage across the school campus and killed 2 people. After 2 hours or so, he
started to attack a classroom in Norris Hall, a kilometre away from the dorm room which he started
to attack earlier. In the end, he left 33 dead on campus including himself. Map of campu...

A team of reserarchers at the University of East Anglia in Norwich, UK, has begun a progject to
devise a system for lip reading using computers.. The system would take a video taped conversation
and convert it to text. This technology will become a valuable tool for crime fighting, security
and a host of other applications such as mobile phone cameras and in-car speech recognition. This
futuristic system will replace the people who can read lips, such people are shrinking in numbers
and even they are no always precise. The real challenge is getting an accurate compute...

His Mac computers the best computers for working with audio ? I think mac computers, are the best
to work with audio producing. Mac operation systems are very stable, and very light for working with

G4, in a studio, and i was exited with the performance of the computer and its operation system.

I post frequently regarding troubleshooting problems I run into, and one reason is because I
can't find much decent help around. I've made reference on occasion to the lousy tech
support available locally, but I just thought I'd show a sample of it. This is from the Sci-Tech
world, a weekly addition to the newspaper. It's not entirely technical, but is one of the few in
the country, and as such is referred to by a lot of people. It also represents the average technical
knowledge of the guy at the computer store, if even. QUOTE QUESTION: I have a Penti...
