  1. hard drive clicking?

    It is only a matter of time if it is clicking. Most likely, a short period of time. If you can get info off, do it now. If you can't, then stick the hard drive in a freezer overnight and then connect it back to the computer with "cold packs" under and around it. While the drive is still...
  2. backup systems

    If you are using one of the SBS solutions, the SBS Backup is actually pretty good if you set it up correctly. There are a tone of third party solutions as well.
  3. backup systems

    What type of domain are you on? 2003, 2003SBS, 2008, 2008SBS, etc?
  4. Reformatting a 2gb Terastation backup drive??

    If you really want to destroy the data, make sure that you choose a software that makes several passes on the hard drives. How sensitive is the data? Who do you expect to find the sensitive data? Do you think that they will use extensive data recovery techniques in order to retrieve the...
  5. how big of a computer do I need???

    Hey, I thought that I might post a shameless plug. We build computers for the sign and wrap industry (signburst.com). We have a solid knowledgebase of the software and equipment that you guys use as well as provide great support before and after the sale. We build with top-notch hardware and...
  6. rgb to cmyk

    Your RIP software will (and is) doing the conversion. Your color shifts are probably due to profile issues or lack of monitor calibration. At least that is my guess.
  7. Buying Creative Suite privately

    You can sell it privately, but there is a "transfer form" that should accompany the software license. BE VERY CAREFUL WHAT YOU BUY AND WHO YOU BUY FROM !!! There are many software pirates out there and it is often difficult to tell who is legit and who is not.
  8. Windows 7 Rules . . .

    Tried it and didn't like it? Or just flapping at the gums?
  9. Windows 7 Rules . . .

    .iso is a disk image. You have to burn it to a DVD and then boot from that DVD. There are several freeware iso burners as well as apps such as Nero. The kick is that in Windows 7, the iso burner is built into Windows.
  10. Windows 7 Rules . . .

    What error message did you get? It usually is an easy install.
  11. Windows 7 Rules . . .

    You have the general idea, but I bet that you mean 4GB not 4MB.
  12. Windows 7 Rules . . .

    I understand what you are saying. As a tech-savy individual, you understand what you just said and it makes sense to you. You get to choose what hardware you buy and have a good idea what it is all about. The other 99.99% of the world has no idea what you just said and doesn't care. They are...
  13. Windows 7 Rules . . .

    Techman, I guess it depends on what "soon" is. We didn't get much warning before SBS 2008 was released in 64 bit only. Major MS apps like SharePoint are going 64 bit only. Indication that the MS server world will be 64 bit only soon. The desktops won't be too far behind, as the desktop and...
  14. Windows 7 Rules . . .

    Apple gives you what they see best. Apple, in its infinite wisdom, has already moved to 64 bit (with Snow Leopard). They just don't really advertise the fact that you are getting whatever they deem best. It is what it is and that's what it is.
  15. Windows 7 Rules . . .

    This is without a doubt, true. 64 Bit EVERYTHING is just around the corner. Microsoft is starting to release their server-based software in 64 Bit versions only. Microsoft reps have told me that the desktop software is not far behind. Like it or not, 64 Bit is here to stay and 32 Bit will...
  16. Todays Photoshop Update

    Yep, but Photoshop CS4 runs sooooo much faster if you have the right hardware and Vista 64.
  17. Todays Photoshop Update

    But you need Vista too. The 64 Bit version of Photoshop is only supported on Vista 64. There are some that have gotten it to work on XP64, but it seems hit or miss and reliability becomes a factor.
  18. Todays Photoshop Update

    I sure could be that driver. It is worth a try for sure. Alien Skin says that they are going to release all of their new stuff to work with 64 Bit PS, but the old stuff is not getting upgraded. I agree, lame. Those plugins could use a performance increase for sure.
  19. Todays Photoshop Update

    We used to run CS3 on XP64 a year ago. But with the performance increases you can get out of Vista and CS4, we changed over ASAP.
