Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
I am running it off of a dvd, but there is a cd version available. I've got a Toshiba Satellite- I'll bet it's the video card. I'm getting a brand new driver right now for it, so we'll see.
Maybe it's time I soup this up. (Well, not me, obviously, for I am feeble and know not what I am doing.) I've already used more storage than I thought I'd have used, so I'll need more. My dad used to do all my souping for me, but since I got a laptop I'll have to bring it somewhere.
Tommyrot, have you found out this info, yet? I've got about 2 weeks to take advantage of the Qwest pricing.
Oh, sorry. It's a Flowpoint 2210.
I don't remember if I mentioned this, but my boss isn't sure if this would work for a home application, as it's SDSL, and most home connectons are ADSL. I don't know myself if that is something that's hardware-specific. (S=symmetrical, so upload and download are the same speed. A=asymmetrical, so download is faster than upload.)
edit to fix the wrongness....
It's symmetrical/asymmetrical, not synchronous/asynchronous.

Oh. Now that you mention it, that makes a lot more sense.
I blame lack of caffeine.
These images are the result of 8 years in the retail computer industry - 8 years that are thankfully behind me. I used to work in the service department in a retail store of a very famous computer company (think cows...). During this time, I was able to observe (and preserve for posterity) the aftereffects of the - shall we say - "technology challenged" folks. My friends and relatives couldn't believe the stories I told - thus this collection of photos.
oh my God. I can't believe some of that shit.
DSL folks, my problem was cleared up by powering down the dsl modem for a while.
Go to that first. Restarting boxen and routers is not needed.

Unfortunately, it's pretty much impossible to upgrade the video capabilities of a laptop unless you're extremely handy with a soldering iron. And maybe not even then.
In other words, no soup for you. IJS.
