AVG anti-virus tells me that there is a virus in my asyncmac.sys. I tried to overwrite it with a copy of asyncmac.sys from another computer (making sure that it was the same version of Windows XP, but I was still nervous that I was going to break something), but when I reboot, I get the same virus warning. If I try to delete the file Windows (or…
DOSBox makes a virtual drive, which it names Z:, for storing utility stuff on. Clearly they're trying to stay out of your way, so you can do whatever you want with the C: drive. Swell, I understand that. But I've got some old database accessing software I really, really want to run which assumes it lives on the Z drive. So I need to get DOSBox's…
I have a Dell Precision T5400 with a Broadcom 1Gb onboard NIC. For some strange reason, when I access machines on our local network, the best I can get is around 125KB/s download speed. My laptop that has a 10/100Mb NIC onboard usually gets around 300KB/s or better from the same network resource. Both machines are plugged into the same 1Gb…

So, it was all working fine, but then I went and reinstalled grub 1 on the arch partition;
Ubuntu had overwritten it on the install.
Then when I tried to boot into…

It's still around in Windows 7.
How does it work and how does it compare with newer sync options such as the native Sync Center?
Should we still use it if it's not being phased out?
I'm using ISPConfig to setup all the websites on my server but I also like to try to fiddle with the files myself to see how it works.

I am having sudden spikes in disk read activity, which can tie up my system for a few seconds at a time. I would like to figure out the cause of this before I set my machine to go live.
With Performance Monitor I know I can log activity, but this does not show me individual processes that cause a spike.
Resource Monitor allows me to…

I'm trying to get sendmail working on my MacBook Pro (OS 10.6.4), so that I can send mail with PHP's mail() function. If you know how to do this without sendmail, I'd be interested in that also.
The plan is to send mail through smtp.gmail.com using my gmail account, unless you have a better idea.
I did this and that didn't…
Is there a way to specify the formatting in an excel formula?
=IF(A1="Large","This is BIG","This is small")
Where "BIG" is of a font size larger than the text for "small"?
(I'm aware of conditional formatting. That's not what I'm after.)

My work computer (Windows 7 64-bit) spends a lot of time swapping memory when I switch between programs. This surprises me since I have 4 GB of RAM, and the programs I use aren't particularly RAM hungry (Outlook, Emacs, p4win, Firefox, various build tools). I downloaded RAMMap, and it shows over a gigabyte of…

I have several Gmail accounts. In the past, when I would go to the Gmail login, it would remember all my logins. All I would need to do would be to enter first letter and it would pick up the rest.
Now it has stopped doing this. I can still type the whole login (if I remember…
