Our other office is set up this way, as they are very hesitant and reluctant about any kind of technology change. We just put a couple 1.5TB drives in their most powerful computer (more powerful than the server described in my original post) and it is more than capable of sharing out files as...

I am curious what others have for server systems with their business and if our system is adequate based on others' comparisons or perhaps even overkill. What hardware do you have for a server or a NAS? Does your business just do file sharing in a workgroup, or is it set up in a domain? Are...

Depending upon how the router is connected with the rest of the devices, you might have to configure port-forwarding as well, though that is most likely not the case. As stated above the 000 octet might be causing an issue with some devices. If you can get into your D-Link router, set it's...

We had an Acer monitor a few years back that started doing this same thing. When it was turned on it would show the Acer logo for a fraction of a second and then nothing. In our case, the power light also shut off just a second or so after the screen went blank. I was going to open it up and...

Recently I have been asked about this issue by some of the people in our office. This issue becomes a hassle in a couple of ways with our company such as messages between our two offices (Colby and Hays locations) take some time to relay sometimes, and keeping track of messages over a long...

Agreed. Very rarely has pre-installed software not been listed in the standard Add/Remove programs list in the Control Panel (In Windows 7, this is Programs and Features.) Just go through that list and you should be able to remove most anything that would not be needed.

The external hard drive would offer a simple and quick idea for a scratch disk, but the speed link through USB is horrendously slow for this kind of task, as USB offers around 25 MBytes/sec of data transfer speed while that VelociRaptor drive can easilly beat 100 MBytes/sec of data transfer...

Absolutely correct. I contacted Adobe myself directly when purchasing a student edition of CS4 Production Suite recently and was informed that, so long as you are a valid student when purchasing, the software can still be used for commercial purposes. I think this has been a pretty...

This computer case has brought about a lot of talk recently. While the idea behind it is quite unique and, in fact, a perfect direction for high-class styled cases (have one engineered and designed by an auto manufacturer or similar industrial designers) I can't see it making a real impact...

When we installed and tested Flexi Pro v8.1 on Windows 7 64-bit RC we did not have any problems with the installation or running the application at all. Check if the user account you are using to install the program has administrative privileges or if it is a limited user account, as yes you...

We have a computer system currently running in our shop with Windows XP Pro 64-bit and Flexi Pro v8.1 and never had any problems getting the application to run. Perhaps you could describe some more on any errors that you might be running into or what issues it is having?

We have had Photoshop CS3 running on a Windows XP Pro x64 system for three years without issue, and I have had Photoshop CS3 running on my Windows 7 RC 64-bit system for almost a year now without any issues. You will have no problems there from my knowledge and experience so far. 3D StudioMax...

Yes exactly what I was trying to say. This answers one of my questions I had before as well on the Core i7-920 vs. Core i7-860 platform. One of the big selling points for the Core i7-920 in this field is its ability to do triple-channel memory configurations, but in the end it's pretty much...

Really that is interesting to hear. I know that the possible throughput of the triple channel memory is pretty ridiculously enormous for most needs so dual-channel would offer still more than enough performance throughput between the RAM and CPU, but I would not expect that dual-channel would...

While the pre-built options offer the base specs on paper that look very good, often times the quality is not as good as what you can do for yourself. I've run into this with some companies that ordered pre-built systems and then were disappointed at their limited options, base limited speed...

Perfectly stated. I do not in any way believe that it is Microsoft's fault that there are so many malicious programs and code out there affecting Windows. If anything, it's because Microsoft has done such a great job in producing and marketing their operating system that it has become so...

Recently I've worked on numerous computers that have been infected with a very nasty fraud virus that can be difficult to remove. Most of these infected computers did have anti-virus software installed and the software either wouldn't pick up on the virus, or became infected itself! Of these...

As Casey said above, this is really dependent upon your situation. If your computer is powerful enough, and your workflow is not at too fast of a rushed pace, then there is no reason why you couldn't do your designing and RIP from the same computer. It is physically possible no doubt. The...

No you are correct, the LGA1366 Core i7 processors do have turbo boost as well, but from my understanding their turbo boost is not as efficient or optimized as that used within the LGA1156 Core i5 and Core i7 processors. I've seen some scores of the Core i7-860 out-performing the Core i7-920 in...
