  • A new USB keyboard and mouse?

    If you buy a new OEM computer these days, it will most likely come supplied with a USB keyboard and mouse. It wasn’t always this way. Early IBM clone computers used a 5 pin DIN port for the keyboard and a 9 pin ‘D’ serial port for the mouse. These were replaced by the IBM PS/2 type connectors. PS/2 keyboards...

  • Vista 64 and Vantec Nexstar USB IDE enclosures..

    It took me a day or two to figure out why Vista 64 would not see my USB enclosure. It has a WD 80gb IDE drive installed in it, and the jumper was set to slave. It seems that 32bit does not really care where the jumper is, but Vista 64 likes to see the jumper set for Cable Select.

  • Add Bloat To Taste

    Actually, I hate the word 'bloat', but I use it now because it is bandied around quite a lot. According to sources, the next version of Windows will no longer include an e-mail client, picture viewer, and MovieMaker. It is said that this will benefit the user in as much as the latest versions...

  • Vista Capable?

    A judge has ok'ed the class action lawsuit against Microsoft regarding the 'marketing' stickers applied to the front of XP machines in the months leading up to the release of Vista. We hear that some 'big noises' within the Microsoft empire had misgivings about rather vague 'meaning'...

  • Low Disk Space Warning After Backing Up..

    Preface The general idea behind backups is to create usable retrievable copies of data onto media that is then kept isolated from the computer system until such time as there is a necessity to retrieve any of them. The term 'backup' is also synonymous with 'compression' which leads to...

  • Vista's 1st Birthday..

    The Delivery From the point where I knew that Vista RTM was on its way, I had a nerve wracking time in MS Connect. I had already downloaded Office 2007 earlier in the day, and was now pacing the floor, continually stopping at the screen to see if Vista was there. At maybe 21:00 hrs on the evening of...
