Another reason NOT to use nvide for opticals .

Yesterday i was going to rip a cd of marc anthony with sony copyprotection with "Easy CD-DA Extractor 7.0" for
transfering it to the wifes MP3 player (note! a legal copy for own usage) .I even tried EAC which should also work with protected cds .
It was totally impossible .
Then after some thinking i descided to revert the IDE controller driver for the PATA channel where
the optical where located back to microsoft (again)  .
Guess what , the nvidia ide drivers was the culprit .
So , to sum it up . I'm never going to use the nvide at the PATA controller anymore .
Only for the serial ata controllers .

I install (NCQ on nv sata/raid0 for NF4) but then roll back the ide portion of the controllers to the native ms XP controllers.  This works.  Your experience with the newest nv sw controllers tells me there are still issues present.  And after being hosed so many times, it just doesn't make sense to use them.

  • Need reasons not to use SMB/win2003 as file server for mac clients

    hey guys,
    i'm looking for reasons not to use windwos2003 as fileserver with smb for use with os x in a graphic production environment.
    can someone help? just need a sum up for "internal use"
    smb seems to be slower than afp
    etc...
    thank you!

    Well, it tends to be that saving over the network from Adobe and Quark apps "just works better" over AFP than it does over SMB.
    Put another way, people wouldn't be paying $4000 for a software license form Extreme-ZIP so they can serve AFP from a Windows 2003 server if there wasn't a real benefit to this. You can get an Xserve for this same $4000

  • HT4970 I have chosen not to use iCloud for the time being, and cannot get the Reminders i input on my Mac to replicate to my iphone and iPad?  any help is appreciated.

    I have chosen not to use iCloud for the time being since the syncing was inconsistently working with the calender and contacts;  and cannot get the Reminders on my Mac to sync/replicate onto my ios device, neither iphone nor ipad.  Help is appreciated in respect to Reminders.  Thank you.

    ok, thanks.  couple other questions...
    1. will it sync to my reminders on my MAC too if i enter via icloud?  if not, what's the reason for  having the reminder list available on my Mac if it can't sync? 
    2. I have 2 different email accounts, one with a .mac address and another with .msn.  both can be accessed via icloud.  i ran a test using my msn acct as the signin and it logged the reminder onto both the iphone and ipad fine.
    however, when i try with my mac address, it only shows up on my iphone, which list reminders under icloud(which worked on both devices and then under mac which worked only on the iphone, not ipad.  any idea why that might be happening?
    thanks for your help.

  • How to embed and launch ipa file from another ipa package created using Air for iOS

    Hi Guys,
    Anybody out there knowing how to embed and launch ipa file from another ipa package created using Air for iOS ?
    I am having 1 ipa file created using Xcode, Now i need to include that file in my ipa Package which is created using Flash CS 5.5 and Air for iOS. Also i need to know how to open my 1st ipa file from AS3 ?
    Thanks,

    Hi Sir,
    Thanks for your reply.
    But in that case user need to download 2 applications right. I need user to download my parent application created using Flash and that package contain one more ipa created using Xcode, so from my parent app only user should able to open my 2nd app. Is there any way to do that?
    Ps:  I am not talking about in-app but 2 individual apps inside one package.

  • Besides the pixel issue any other reason not to use iphone apps in ipad?

    besides the pixel issue any other reason not to use iphone apps on ipad??

    There are no technical reasons why you can't use them (unless they are some of the few apps that require full phone capability which you won't be able to install). -If you are happy with either using them in an iPhone sized portion of the screen, or with the pixelated 2x size, then use them. I use quite a few apps from my iPhone and iPod Touch, and I've got used to the pixelisation and I don't really notice it as much as I used to.

  • Rverese proxy sugguestions - any reason not to use ISA2006 anymore?

    This is a silly question, but im just looking to publish meeting content outside the organization to external users, is there any reason for me not to use the old reverse proxy i was using for OCS2007 R2 which is ISA2006 ? i know its out of support and
    all of that but fundamentally it should do what i want it to do should it not? or are there any gaping security holes in the product i could drive a truck through?

    I believe ISA2006 will work for simply publishing Lync Web Services. (there wasn't too much of a change in how the publishing works from ISA 2006 to TMG that I can recall.)
    I am not aware of any giant security holes in the product, mainstream support did end in 2012 and I haven't seen any updates beyond 2009.
    A couple other alternatives if you don't have an appliance you can use (i.e Kemp/Citrix/F5 Loadbalancer) are:
    IIS ARR http://blogs.technet.com/b/nexthop/archive/2013/02/19/using-iis-arr-as-a-reverse-proxy-for-lync-server-2013.aspx
    Windows 2012 R2 WAP http://blogs.technet.com/b/dodeitte/archive/2013/10/29/how-to-publish-lync-server-2013-web-services-with-windows-server-2012-r2-web-application-proxy.aspx
    In fact: Microsoft actual suggest that you can use ISA here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg398069.aspx "You
    can use Microsoft Forefront Threat Management Gateway 2010, Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration (ISA) Server 2006 SP1, or Internet Information Server 7.0, 7.5 or 8.0 with Application Request Routing (IIS ARR) as a reverse proxy."

  • Expecting not to use MacBook for a month -- disconnect battery (or not)?

    I recall seeing some guidelines for when to remove a MacBook battery if you are expecting not to use your MacBook for a while.
    Is non-use for *a month* long enough to recommend removing a battery, or is that only necessary for longer periods (two months or longer?
    I assume there's no reason to leave the charger connected (?)
    Thanks. Replies appreciated.

    "Long term" non-use would be more than 4 months. For one month, it's fine to leave the battery in. No reason to leave the AC connected, just shut down the MB.
    Hope this helps...

  • Is there any reason not to use spaces in document file names anymore in a document library?

    We are revamping our sharepoint document library file naming conventions. In lots of blogs and tutorials, I have seen over and over the recommendation to use underscores instead of spaces in document file names in sharepoint. Part of this is I think to prevent
    the infamous %20 in URLs pointing to the documents. That doesn't really concern us and we don't generally have file names that approach 256 characters.  We don't want to go the route of having different document names than document titles so we want our
    document names to be a clear and readable as possible. We think that using spaces (and occasionally dashes) in the file names makes them more readable, and sharepoint 2010 seems to be able to search these file name correctly.  An example document file
    name would be "elephants - how to clean elephant cages".
    Has anyone run into a reason to avoid using spaces and dashes in document file names in sharepoint 2010? I don't want to start using spaces and then be sorry I did down the road. Thanks!

    It isn't going to lead to the fall of western civilisation.
    You will get longer and messier URLs for documents but it's very unlikely to cause issues. There have been some bugs in the past where hyphens in particular can be mis-encoded in searches but they only affect a small range of build numbers if memory serves.
    I much prefer using no spaces for document libraries as it makes the starting URLs so much cleaner but that's a style question. For documents unless you've got a very strict document naming standard spaces are common and dashes aren't uncommon.

  • Any reason not to use microSD to SD adapter in tapeless camera?

    I've been looking at getting a bunch of SD cards for my tapeless cameras, and the microSD seems to be cheaper (even with the adapter) and has better reviews than the regular SD cards.
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231577
    Any reason to stick with just the regular SD cards and not use the microSD with an adapter?
    Thanks.

    I have issues investing a shoot  to an SD card..and you  want to shoot to a micro Sd card!
    You are a brave man so good luck.
    (and.get Production Insurance).
    FWIW - Any shoot I do to an SD card is "insured" by simultaneously  recording to a Samurai (SSD) as well as Production insurance.

  • Any reason NOT to use google addsense?

    sounds straight ahead. Any cons of using addsense?
    Thanks
    Craig

    The only reason I can think of is: If you care about a graphically perfect appearance of the website then don't add Ads. Not because they look bad or they have any influence on how a website appears. But imagine the painting of Monalisa by Leonardo DaVinci with Ad added on... Say an advertising for Pasta displaying on the right top of the painting... It's not unesthetic but it wouldn't be the same painting anymore and wouldn't be visited at the Louvre by hundreds of thousands of people (ok... maybe it would...)
    I hope you got what I meant to say

  • Reasons why to use Iterator for List rather than for loop ?

    when i use the iterator and for loop for traversing through the list. it takes the same time for iterator and also for for loop. even if there is a change it is a minor millisecond difference.
    what is the actual difference and what is happening behind the traversing list through iterator
    if we are using we are importing extra classes ...if we are using for loop there is no need to import any classes

    If you have an array-backed collection, like an ArrayList, then the difference between using an iterator and get() will be negligible.
    However, if you have a linked list, using get() is O(n^2) whereas iterator is O(n).
    So with an iterator, regardless of what your underlying data structure, a list of 100,000 elements takes 1,000 times as long to iterate over as a list with 100 elements. But using get() on a LinkedList, that same 100,000 element list will take 1,000,000 times as long as the 100 item list.
    There's no real benefit to ever using get()
    Side note: I've been comparing iterators to get(), not iterators to for loops. This is because whether it's a for or a while has nothing to do with whether you use an iterator or get(). The way I use iterators is for (Iterator iter = list.iterator(); iter.hasNext(); ) {
        Foo foo = (Foo)iter.next();
    }

  • When is too simple, reasoning not to use Java?

    I wish to write a small program which gives the user 6 or 7 options. When the associated radio button is selected, a different executable file will be executed.
    Is this overkill to script this with Java? Should I be simply writing a batch file for this operation?
    Advice please.

    If "batch" means Windows scripting language, I'd say that's a poor choice.
    Who really cares? A small app like that won't be hurt much by using a solution that's less than optimal.

  • Any reason not to use Airport Express?

    I'm about to purchase a Airport Extreme Base Station to go wireless but have a question concerning connection of an older iMac G4 FP. Based on specs I need to get an older Airport Card for the iMac but with the high prices for these cards I'm considering just getting an AE instead and setting it up as a bridge. Figure that it's a wiser investment since I can later use the AE when I retire the iMac.
    Is there anything I'm overlooking that would discourage this approach and make purchasing the Airport card a better solution?
    Thanks,
    Mark
    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    In order to use an Airport Express in this manner you need to use WDS which a) some people find complicated b) halves the wireless bandwidth (only relevant for internal network file transfers).
    Personally I would recommend an ethernet wireless bridge.
    Examples of Ethernet wireless adapters are the Linksys WET11, Linksys WET54G, and the Buffalo Technology WLI-TX4-G54HP bridge.

  • E5-00 Calendar not synching using Mail For Exchang...

    hi
    I've just upgraded from and E71 to E5
    The mail synchs well, but the calendar will only sych via a phone > Ovi Suite > Outlook using Bluetooth or USB between phone and PC.
    Does the E5 treat calendar synching in a different manner to the E71?
    Thanks in advance.
