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!
re: CD burners.
I have an external HP CD-Writer Plus. It worked beautifully once, but now it's refusing to write files. I'm using the DLA software that HP provides, on Win98SE. It goes through the Formatting step fine, but it won't copy files.
Would Nero would on this drive or is it proprietary?
It might work Connie.
You might see if there is a firmware update for the burnere, or a software update for the burning software.
audacity.sourceforge.net
I run it on all 3 OSes and it's good to me.
Billytea is trying to connect to my wireless network and is being asked for my network key or WEP key, which I am never asked for, and is not any of my passwords. Where would I find it? I have Mac OS 10.3.6.
eta: Nevermind. My alternate tech support came online.
The Nero version we have is proprietary to the TDK drive it came with. Fortunately, the TDK drive is now sitting in Hubby's machine and burns CDs with joy and aplomb. I'll fuss with the HP when I feel techy again. Thanks!
Nero in general isn't proprietary, but when it ships with a drive, I think they tie it to that model.
I'm working on an Access database of a ceramics collection. I want to insert a small image of each piece into a form, so that it can be seen with the full catalogue record. However, I've been having trouble getting the OLE object to insert itself as an image, not a package. I've tried inserted it as both an embedded object, and a link. I've tried different file associations for the image files. I'm lost and ready to admit defeat. Does anyone have any suggestsions? I'm running Access 2003 on XP.
We have PCs. So Audacity should work?
Oh, great hivemind of tech wisdom, I could use some help over here. I have Windows 2000 and I just upgraded from IE5.5 (which worked fine) to IE6.0 and now it's effing up bad. Convulsion-inducing flashes when downloading ads, and slow as heck even though I have 60 gigs of memory now, giving me "not enough memory" error messages, and crashing for no reason. I hate Microsoft. Can I go back to IE5.5? Or should I just upgrade to Windows XP?
We have PCs. So Audacity should work?
I've got it on 40 or so PCs at work, and it works fine. Just be sure to get the LAME library if you want to export mp3's -- the link should be somewhere pretty upfront on the Audacity page.
