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!

Jessica, I'm getting a "can't connect." I am using Gaim. Is there something I need to put in the "resource" area?
I don't know anything about Gaim, sorry. (I'm using iChat.)
Check here for info: [link]
eta: Gaim instructions:
1. Add an account, select "Jabber" as the protocol.
2. Your screen name is everything before the '@gmail.com'.
3. Server is 'gmail.com'.
4. Click "show more options" and make sure "use TLS if available" is checked. Leave "Force old SSL" and "allow plaintext..." unchecked for now. Connection port should be 5222, connection server should be 'talk.google.com' without the quotes.
5. Ta-da! Just login and you should be good-to-go.
... but gaim is on the other machine. It's in a whole 'nother room!
oh! that's awesome. thanks tommy!
For years, Silicon Valley hungered for a company mighty enough to best Microsoft. Now it has one such contender: the phenomenally successful Google.
But instead of embracing Google as one of their own, many in Silicon Valley are skittish about its size and power. They fret that the very strengths that made Google a search-engine phenomenon are distancing it from the entrepreneurial culture that produced it - and even transforming it into a threat.
Well, fuck.
My computer is crapping out on boot up again. I hadn't had a chance to do more than run some disk clean up and defrag stuff on the drive the last time I recovered it, as I have been quite busy of late.
Now, when I boot up off the CD and run chkdsk, it's telling me the volume appears to contain one or more unrecoverable problems.
I'm not really worried about getting my files off the disk, but I'm beginning to worry that my computer may be done for.
Yup. The volume appears to contain one or more unrecoverable errors.
AAARGH!
Okay, on the thirda attempt last night, chkdsk ran all the way through and seemed to work. However, now on boot up, when Windows tries to start loading, some dll tries to pass an invalid parameter to something.
So, I tried to boot up from the CD to the repair console, except now it asks me which of the ONE Windows systems I would like to log in to. When I select the one it lists (by pressing "1" and hitting ENTER), it asks me for an ADMIN password (which I have never used), and I don't have one. Three wrong guesses and it forces a restart of the machine.
Anybody have a help on this one? "admin" and "administrator," or "(nothing)" are the only default passwords I remember, and none of those work.
