I don't want task scheduler or whatever to wake the computer, but when I open the laptop back up and the machine wakes I'd like that to be the trigger that task scheduler or something uses to run an app.
When I try to set the volume label for my FAT32 USB drive the normal way (using Windows Explorer or Disk Management), the filesystem just makes the label uppercase when applying it.
Is it possible at all to set a mixed-case volume label on the drive on Windows? I know there may be no real reason for me to do that, but I'd really like to know.
I have a new Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit machine. I have set up an XPMode Virtual Machine and installed SQL 2008.
I am now trying to successfully create an ODBC data source linking to the SQL 2008 installation. I can go through the wizard but 'Test Connection' fails.
SQL Server is shared and available to all users.
Solaris 11 has a new standard user level command, /usr/bin/elffile.
elffile is a variant of the file utility that is focused exclusively on linker
related files: ELF objects, archives, and runtime linker configuration
files. All other files are simply identified as "non-ELF". The primary
advantage of elffile over the existing file utility is in the…
Can anyone please steer me in the right direction to a function that will edit multiple TODO in one fell swoop. Here are some examples:
highlight a group of TODO that have deadlines and remove the dealines to make them undated.
modify all priorites in a highlighted group -- e.g., #A to #D
set deadlines by group and/or change deadlines by group…
I was indulging in nostalgia and remembered the first game I created, which used Mode 13h.
This mode was really simple to work with, since it was essentially just an array of bytes with an element for each pixel on the screen (using an indexed color scheme).
So I thought it might be fun to create something nowadays under these restrictions, but…
I have a 250 GB HD with a XP partition. I partitioned the XP Box to 112 GB, since the max Virtual PC can load is 127 GB.
I have a new motherboard and can't load into the partition, so I am using Windows 7.
I have tried using WinImage to create the image but it creates an image of the whole disc (250 GB) and will not load on Virtual PC cause of…
I can put my MacBook into clamshell mode by just close it and sending some USB/Bluetooth signals.
However, sometimes I want to get into the mode directly without those actions. Is there no button or menu written "Get clamshell mode now"? Or utility?
I have a running setup as following:
Native OS: Windows 7 64bit, 3 Partitions:
c: (System)
d: (FAT32, here is my vdi file)
e: (unformatted)
VirtualBox: Fedora 14 running off the vdi file on drive d.
Usually this setup is great for me, but sometimes I'd like to run Linux natively, and not inside VirtualBox.
Is there a way to boot directly…
I'm trying to mount what is inside UML session as FUSE filesystem on host.
There's "uml_mount" program which looks like a thing for this purpose, but it fails.
What is UMLFS (I haven't found any documentation at all) and how to mount it?
uml_mount mounts FUSE filesystem and starts uml_mconsole <umid> umlfs <file descriptor> which…
I am using a Cisco 6500 series with an SSO redundancy configuration. The show redundancy output is as follows:
Hardware Mode = Duplex
Configured Redundancy Mode = sso
Operating Redundancy Mode = rpr
Maintenance Mode = Disabled
Communications = Up
I would assume the device is operating in RPR mode although…
Is there a way to disable the PHP setting safe_mode in a client or domain template in Plesk 8.6? Or, to disable it for new domain creation in some other Plesk setting/configuration?
I've Googled, and people seem to think no
I've asked our hosting provider, and they don't think so
I've looked in both the domain and client templates in Plesk…
Does the Virtual PC XP-Mode (or any other virtualized mode) require safety measures, such as antivirus or a firewall?
I'm just wondering if the XP-Mode would be a large security loophole, since it's so much more integrated into Windows 7. Actually I'm wondering the same for Portable Ubuntu, are their any safety measures I should undertake,…
In the past few years, the languages I like to use are becoming more and more "functional". I now use languages that are a sort of "hybrid": C#, F#, Scala. I like to design my application using classes that correspond to the domain objects, and use functional features where this makes coding easier, more coincise and safer (especially when…
I am building a small portfolio site for myself and have come across an odd quirk. I have an image inside a container, and to allow for multiple screen sizes, I am setting all dimensions in % rather than pixels.
in iphone portrait mode, everything is fine. However in landscape mode, my image bursts out of its container, completely…
I have a Windows 8 in audit mode with a lot of applications installed, custom configurations done, and an answer file prepared, ready to be sysprepped for cloning. How do I upgrade to Windows 8.1, when I can't go into the store (Metro apps don't work in audit mode)? If I run sysprep then create a normal account so I can get the…
Hey all,
If I have a router that has "mixedmode" enabled to allow b, g, and n devices, it is true that n devices will suffer in reduced bandwidth if there are any non-n devices connected?
I found one article on the internet after a quick google search:

Can anyone…
I'm trying to do something like this but with native mode (less integration).
All of the directions I can find tell you how to set up Sharepoint integrated mode but I need to find out what the steps are for setting up native mode?
Has anyone done this?
This might sound weird but there's an explanation for my question: I want to write something to impress a potential recruiter, and I want (to strenghten my skills) to create a program which should communicate with kernel mode driver(s).
I'm not starting from a goal and trying to design the system to achieve it, I'm…
Windows 7 Home Premium does not allow write mode on USB networked drives, why is this? Is anyone else having this issue also?
I can network drives in read mode but read/write mode isn't working! Not sure why.
Running the latest version of VirtualBox on OSX and hosting a Windows virtual machine. Is there a way to put shortcuts on your Mac desktop for the Windows apps that you run in seamless mode?
I can't find a way to do this, so every time I want to newly launch a Windows app in seamless mode I have to access the full…
Mainly, I would like to prevent my laptop from entering Sleep mode when I am playing music or streaming video. This is on my laptop, so another option that would work would be to prevent sleep mode whenever the laptop is plugged into my tv via HDMI (ie when HDMI port is in use). Or prevent sleep mode whenever…
my problem is the that for a Hackintosh (unofficial PC running OS X) I needed to set AHCI, Power Mode S3 and HPET 64bit. Now, I want to install Ubuntu (when 12.04 comes out) and was wondering if these settings will be right to use for Ubuntu. I read that AHCI is how the hard disks are accessed, Power Mode S3 is…
