  1. Keyboard & Mouse not cooperating.......

    Given that you posted a picture of your computer entering into BIOS, it must then be assumed that at least before the OS begins to boot, the keyboard IS being recognized otherwise it would be impossible to access into your BIOS. This means that it is within the operating system itself that the...
  2. EPS File Will Not Open

    Thank you everyone for your help on this! We attempted to import it or place it into AI and it still would not work, only the message that the file type is not supported. The person that sent it to us said himself that he could not get the file to open, so the initial designer probably just...
  3. EPS File Will Not Open

    I could use your advise and your help! We recently received an EPS file of a logo that we need to work on in an email, but we are unable to open the EPS file for some reason, never had a problem with it before! We have tried to open the EPS file in Flexi Expert v8.0 and in Illustrator CS3...
  4. 1080p

    Generally speaking, a computer monitor is built to support higher resolutions when they are larger sized monitors. However, when you start searching for QXWSGA screens (panels with higher than 1080p resolution) that's when things get pretty expensive. There is little difference really between...
  5. 1080p

    That is really going to depend upon the size of the monitor and your personal preference for desktop size. The desktop size on a 1920 x 1080 23" monitor is going to be much different than a 1920 x 1080 46" monitor. If you are specifically looking for something to do design work on, and it has...
  6. Windows 7 Rules . . .

    You know, I really have to agree with both of you on this in ways. It's just at that point in the 32-bit/64-bit transitional market that you really make valid points that are true both ways. As an example, I went to our Wal-Mart and looked at every computer they had on the shelves, desktop...
  7. Windows 7 Rules . . .

    We are still at the point where some hardware and software is not designed for 64-bit operation. Most new higher-performance software and hardware will have drivers for 32-bit and 64-bit systems. Those businesses and products that for one reason or another are not making the transition to...
  8. Windows 7 Rules . . .

    I have not tested the RTM, all I have is the RC. Did they still include the larger selection of desktops, sound schemes, and window themes in the RTM version? It's not really that important as most people still customize their settings with their own images, but I thought it was interesting...
  9. Windows 7 Rules . . .

    While Windows 7 is based off the same code as Windows Vista, yes, it has had a great amount of overhauling, especially in how processes and libraries are handled and how information is sent to hardware more efficiently to make the overall system not only more stable than Vista was, but much more...
  10. Windows 7 Rules . . .

    I am really glad that Microsoft decided to include the XP Mode with Win7, as that is one of the biggest reasons for companies to not upgrade is compatibility outside of Windows XP. However, it's not perfect and doesn't work EXACTLY as if you had a standard copy of XP Pro installed on your...
  11. Windows 7 Rules . . .

    I've got to agree with everyone here, Windows 7 for me has been wonderful. Many of the things in Vista that made it uncomfortable have been built much better or fixed all together. My whole system runs very smooth and I've never had any problems with crashing with Windows itself, although I...
  12. Can Vista Run In Spanish

    It is possible to install additional language packs for Windows Vista, though I am viewing how to do this through Windows 7 so please just mention if I've got something completely wrong somewhere! It should be the same within Vista, however. Open control panel, and then open Region and...
  13. Video Cards which one to buy!

    +1 here for me, as I mentioned above. I've been incredibly impressed with the quality of the Quadro cards. Pretty much any of the quadro cards will handle dual monitors without a problem. The newest generation has support for DisplayPort, which I haven't seen common in any monitors yet, but...
  14. Online Backup

    We looked into some off-site online backup programs before, but in the end found it to be too expensive and not feasible due to the time required. Given very slow internet connect speeds at our location, and that any online backup service we looked into required a FULL backup each time, it...
  15. Technical Help

    I've set up for a couple people to access into their work desktop from their home computer using Windows Remote Desktop feature. The reason I've always gone with this route is it's a service integrated with Windows, and allows for pretty good compatibility across platforms meaning it doesn't...
  16. Video Cards which one to buy!

    If you are looking to run two larger sized monitors (20+") I would suggest running them off of DVI if possible. Check for a video card that has two DVI out connectors and they should be capable of running two monitors side-by-side. I prefer nVidia video cards personally, I've never had...
  17. computer problems...

    If you are planning to do a completely clean installation of XP and don't mind losing whatever previous data was on the disk, then just do a full disk wipe with a diskwipe utility. This will write 0's or 1's to the entire disk erasing all previous data which SHOULD stop the application from...
  18. Vista 64-bit....

    As I've stated elsewhere to others, I've been running Windows 7 RC as my primary desktop OS for the last few months now ever since building a new computer in early May. All the hardware was recognized without problem, and everything has worked incredibly smooth. Driver support is definitely a...
  19. Vista 64... need to run Quickbooks 2006 in compatibility mode...

    With QuickBooks and Intuit being a pretty well-known and well-used program (that we have had no problem with in the past ever) I'm surprised really to be hearing about issues with Vista. However, when we look that it is 64-bit Vista, that might be the answer there. Not many applications have...
  20. PC Suggestion for Flexi

    From what I understand, Flexi can use a maximum of three threads. One for the main program itself, one thread when sending data to the Production Manager, and one thread for actually printing and running the Production Manager. While you can purchase a laptop that will handle rip and printing...
