I just bought a 1G ram card. I already have 2 512mb ram cards installed. Can I have 2 different types of ram cards plugged in at the same time? Or do I have to have all of the same type of ram (512mb or 1G)

i am trying to transfer music over from a emac to a pc. i converted the hd in the disk utility (Disk Utility - Erase), and i set it up as an MS-DOS File system to allow the transfers. but for some reason, when i hook up the drive to the PC, the drivers still work, but in the MY COMPUTER it does not show up and i cannot open the drive.

the external hard drive is a maxtor OneTouch III USB drive.

what am i doing wrong?

2 gb ddr2 ram
500 gb hd

we recently got a brand new dj system for our club. the eMac couldnt take the new software so we switched to a PC. now i am trying to transfer all the music files (9000+ songs, 28GB-ish) from the eMac to the PC.

Now the club bought a 320gb external HD to store the music on. only problem is that the eMac does not recognise it. so i tried my 80gb external HD with the same result.

if i switch my 80gb HD to the specifications of the eMac, will i be able to still access the HD files?
in the eMac disk utility it gives me a choice of

1. ERASE: MAC OS EXTENDED, MAC OS STANDARD, MS-DOS FILE SYSTEM, and UNIX FILE SYSTEM

2. PARTITION: MAC OS EXTENDED, MAC OS STANDARD, UNIX FILE SYSTEM, and FREE SPACE

I also noticed my lexar thumb drive works on both because it is a FAT and not an NTSF like the other external hard drives. Is it possible to convert one of the hard drives to FAT to transfer the music, then revert it back to NTSF?

Please i need this help badly!

Your help is well appreciated!

I have recently bought a FreeAgent external hard drive. The hard drive is plug and play and so comes with no software which might include some security.

Does anyone know of a way i can password protect files on the hard drive so that they can't be accessed without the password? Or so the files are only accessible from my computer.

I want to know because my friend gave me an Action Replay, and he said that you can only add codes on the computer, and I broke my chord.

My external hard drive was working fine till a few days and suddenly stopped showing on the USB drive of my desktop. I hear some scratch noise (as through something is rotating but getting hit at a certain point as it moves).

When I disconnect & reconnect to the USB, the desktop recognises a mass storage device but nothing happens after that. I am not seeing this device in "my computer" of Windows XP professional. All the other pen drives and other devices are being recognised by the USB. So I feel there is nothing wrong with the USB connection.

Any help? How can I recover my files before I ask anyone to work on it? Thanks

When I try to format my USB flash drive, the only option that appears is "Format to FAT32"...there isn't even an option to format to NTSC! I find this strange, but what I really need is to format to FAT. Is there a workaround to this, a program or something to format to FAT?

I'd appreciate your help! ;)

Both cards cost 90

Some of the specs....

PCI Express x16 interface

2048 x 1536 at 85Hz maximum analog resolution at 32-bit color and 1600 x 1200 at 60Hz maximum digital resolution at 32-bit color for ultrarealistic gaming experiences



PNY - GeForce 8400GS Graphics Card

hi,

i just bought a visiontek X1550 graphics card that has an ATI radeon x1550 512 MB processing unit for a PCI-E slot. i want to put it in a HP pavilion I bought a few months ago that came with a geforce 6150se integrated into the motherboard with 128 MB dedicated graphics memory and 495 MB shared system memory for a total of 623 MB available graphics memory.

my question is this: will i lose either of these memory resources if i install the radeon graphics card?

also, my system apparently has a 250 watt power supply and the recommended wattage for the radeon is 300 or greater. will this lower the performance of the graphics card significantly? I only have a wireless network adapter card installed additionally in the PC...

any help is appreciated. thanks!

i bought 2 used computers awhile back and pulled 2 video cards that say Graphics by Rage mobility ATI. Under that it says
RAGE mobility-p
216POSASA25
D41781
9951SS
TAIWAN
that is printed on a chip on the board.
also it has printing on the board itself which reads...
CR216S
and on the other edge it reads
8M

what kind of card is this? is it good? do i need drivers for it? if so where can i get them? and if i wanted to resell it how much could i get for it? As i said it came out of a used desktop that i used for parts, i have 2 of them any info would be great thanks.

The webcam is a cheapie, but does indeed have a mic. I can use the video recorder selection on it to record vids with sound, but this is NOT working when hooked up to my computer using Yahoo Messenger. Any ideas, I've looked at configuration/speaker settings, and it seems like I've got those right.
