ATI HD3870 - have I put this in the right place?

I've just upgraded from an XT1900 (which was slowly frying itself and causing all kinds of graphics issues) to a nice, new HD3870. All's gone well so far with installation and setup. Only one thing is worrying me a little: the 1900 occupied Slot 1, and I've done a direct swap with the 3870. But the 3870 is shorter and its installation has left me with a gap in the back of the machine which was previously covered by the grille on the 1900. Shouldn't I cover this gap up? It strikes me as an obvious dust conduit. If so, with what? Or should I move the 3870 to another slot?

High power cards have to go in slots 1 or 2, so your card is in the right place. Any computer store should have a blank PCI cover for the empty space between slots 1 and 2 when you use a narrow card in slot 1. The space should have a metal cover to prevent electrical noise escaping, not just dust.

Not sure if this is the right place...Recovery or Finding missing files

Hi,
Again, not sure if this is the right place to ask, but its worth a shot.
so i've been transcribing video all day using microsoft office for mac, and was saving the project (i thought) to an external hard drive. at one point the HD came unplugged, and i plugged it back in. no big deal. i continued to save, to type, save, type, etc until finished. so when i finished and saved the project, seemed okay. when i closed word, it kept asking me if i wanted to save changes...i said yes, and it would just ask me again, did this a few times. i assumed it was asking me to save it to a new location, which i didn't think i needed so finally said no.
i then find out that somehow when the HD was unplugged it erased Words ability to save to said location. so my last save was really before the HD was removed, which is odd, because i kept saving and never was prompted the path was interrupted or anything.
so my question is two part...
1. where would i find in the depths of the computer the saved files? if i was saving, they had to have gone somewhere, but i dont know how to find them.
2. also, assuming it wasnt saving, my word prefs say it autosaves every 5 minutes, so those files must exist somewhere also, yet can't find them...
does this make sense, can anyone help me?
thanks
austin

Hi there,
In Finder, select Go menu>Go to Folder, and go to "/volumes".
Volumes is where an alias to your hard drive ("/" at boot) is placed at startup, and where all the "mount points" for auxiliary drives are created for you to access them. This folder is normally hidden from view.
Drives with an extra 1 on the end have a side-effect of mounting a drive with the same name as the system already think exists.
See if it may be in one of those with a 1 or 2 added to it.

Ms-design-css-conversion="no" Did I add this to the right place?

ms-design-css-conversion="no" Did I add this to the right place?
<link href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:300,400,600,700" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" ms-design-css-conversion="no" />
Do I need to add this, ms-design-css-conversion="no" to all my css link or just
the one above ref google fonts?
Thank you.

Hi,
You are right, if the ms-design-css-conversion set to “no” which means there is no need to do the conversion for the tag.
Example:
<link href="/Documents/Styles/Default.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" ms-design-css-conversion="no" />

Hi, i guess this is the right place to ask? Not sure where else to go...

I have audio visualization on my pc, so when i play songs from MP3, random patterns etc are generated, this im sure you know.
well, is there a way to turn my MP3 track, into a VIDEO so i can attach the Visualization to the song - and burn to CD, and put in my DVD player...?
Thanks

Definitely not the right place to ask. This has absolutely nothing to do with Java.
But what you need is screen capture software (Fraps for example...go to download.com or google for other screen capture software). You'll need to use the capture software to create your video. Then use some kind of authoring tool to create your DVD, with the sound and video files put together.
If you came to a Java forum for help with this, the solution might be a bit over your head...

Another "2 seconds on 3 off" problem (Hope this is the right place)

It's kinda hard to figure out what goes where around here, so if this is in the wrong spot, feel free to move it - but please tell me WHERE you moved it to. Thanks.
The guts:
MoBo: MSI P55M-GD45
Processor: Intel I7-860
Memory: 4x2GB Corsair XMS3
Graphics card: MSI/R5750-PM2D1G HD5750 R
Case: Rosewill Smart One
Power: Rosewill Green 530w continuous
HD: Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 750GB
I put this all together the other day, minus the HD (hadn't arrived yet). I started with 2 mems after reading stories about how 4 might not register.
I started it Saturday, and it lit right up, but I shut it down quickly as it was only a test. This morning, I added my monitor, keyboard and mouse and restarted it. Up came a glorious MSI screen. I rebooted and went into BIOS just to look at the goodies, exiting without changing anything. So far, everything running smoothly.
I powered down and added the other two memory sticks and - blooie!
I now have the same problem others have articulated: press the power on and it lights up for a second or two (all fans and leds go on) and then it shuts down. If left on, this repeats and repeats...I stopped it after 15 minutes.
Cleared the CMOS by the jumper method; nuttin. Tried again using the "take the battery out" method; again, alas, no change.
So I tore it down to mainboard and CPU, undid and reseated the CPU, added more silver thermal, plugged in the power and...crap. Changed the memory to one stick. Nope. Two sticks; uh-uh. I don't have ready access to another power supply and somehow I don't think that's the problem.
Is it just me or is this happening more often than it used to? Anyone have any other roads I might travel down

Sorry, I must have overread the part where you said that the system does not turn on anymore.

I'm beginning to suspect the board
That's possible but it is not the only available explanation.
It could also be a PSU issue or a problem with you video card. Without further tests, however, all we have are hypotheses that remain to be proved or disproved.

because it's a lot cheaper than the processor.
Even a 1 million dollar processor is subject to potential damage (sadly).

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this question...

The hard drive icon has mysteriously disappeared off of my desktop and I have NO CLUE how to get it back! I also added another hard drive and that icon as well, does not show up on the desktop. If I load a cd in the drive, it will show up - but my hard drive(s) won't.
HELP!!!!
G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Try this:
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. Then select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now shutdown the computer for a couple of minutes and then restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

Not sure if this is the right place to put this-- Ac adapter question

I have an original IPOD. I also have an Ipod Touch. Can I use the AC adapter from the original to charge the Touch?

Thanks
I didn't think so but I didn't want to mess up the Touch.

Not sure if this is the right place but......."noisy iMac, whats the deal?"

Hey,
I had recentely been having problems with my first gen iMac G5 (distorted video, noisy fans e.t.c), but after sending it in for repair ,courtesy of Apple Extention Repair Program, I am still having problems. I don't get the distorted video anymore but I am still getting the noise coming from my computer. Should this all have been taken care of when I put it in for repair or is the noise a seperate issue? Also, is there anyway I can fix this because it is driving me crazy?!?!?!
Thanks
Ian

Since it was in for repair, I certainly would have mentioned it to the techs when I brought it in.
There is no way for you to fix it, as the parts are no longer considered user serviceable.
Since you just sent it in, I would call them and tell Apple that you are still having noise issues and see what they will do.

Not sure if this is the right place...but is there any aggregate data repository/dictionary out there?

And what I mean is...Is there any aggregate data dictionary out there that tells you how long and what type a data column should be?
For example...Medical Provider Name...what is the normal length for something like this? Provider ID? Tax ID? Address Line 1? City? State?...Etc...
Is like EDI X12 considered the Bible of Data Dictionaries? Yet you have to pay for that don't you? Is there anything else I can reference???
Thanks for your review and am hopeful for a reply.

Provider ID is well defined:
"National Provider Identifier Standard (NPI)
The National Provider Identifier (NPI) is a Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Administrative Simplification Standard. The NPI is a unique identification number for covered health care providers. Covered health care providers and
all health plans and health care clearinghouses must use the NPIs in the administrative and financial transactions adopted under HIPAA. The NPI is a 10-position, intelligence-free numeric identifier (10-digit number). This means that the numbers do not carry
other information about healthcare providers, such as the state in which they live or their medical specialty. The NPI must be used in lieu of legacy provider identifiers in the HIPAA standards transactions."

Not sure if this is the right place to ask it or not

but I'm curious as to how much it would cost me as an early term fee. I have a galaxy s4 and have had verizon for about 3 years. Does anyone have an idea how much it would cost me by chance?

I'm concerned you're asking this Daedricx, we don't want to see you go. What has you considering leaving us?
If you're still under contract, the early termination starts at $350, reduced by $10 every month the line is active and bill paid. There is a minimum of $120; once you reach $120.00 left as the termination fee, it will completely reach $0.00 the day after your agreement is fulfilled.

Hi,
You can have a look at below article might get some useful details from below links.
1. Event ID 1001: Windows Error Reporting
2. Event ID 1000, 1001 is logged every five minutes in the Application event log
As this is not related to RDC Forum for more accurate information you can place your question under “Windows Server General

Hope it helps!
Thanks.

Not sure if this is the right place, but I need help working with wtmpx

I am trying to write a program that collects data from the /var/adm/wtmpx file and I would like to use the structures and functions provided by the utmpx.h file in /usr/include. I can read the utmpx file with no problem, however I would like to read the wtmpx file. I think the way to do it is to use the function utmpxname(). However, this appears to be the one function that doesn't seem to work. The compiler complains that there is no function utmpxname(). I am mainly a C++ programmer so this code is a little confusing to me. Where can I find the actual implementation of the utmpxname()? PLEASE HELP!!

This is a Solaris question. You should post it to that discussion.
Items in section 3 of the manual are not part of the compiler. They
would be in libc or some other system lib distributed with
the OS and not maintained under the compiler collection.

Not sure if this is the right place, but what video capture software....

do you recommend? I need something that's cost efficient. I see that there is Mac Capture and Screen Record software that is available and both are under $30. Do any of you have experience with either one of these? Or are there any other that you guys recommend? I want to record the audio and video of the video files that I play on my Powerbook. Thanks.

To me cost efficient is what works the best.

GCU renewal question. Hopefully this is the right place

I didn't realize mine expired and checked my email and I never got a renew option. Is there any way to get one or do I have to wait for a deal? Last time I used it was when mario kart 8 was out.

Hi xfactor831,
To my knowledge, renewal notices are not provided for Gamers' Club Unlocked memberships -- it's the customer's responsibility to keep track of their membership's expiration date. If your membership has expired and you're interested in renewing, then I'd encourage you to keep an eye on BestBuy.com, our weekly ad, and your inbox for future offers.
Thanks for your continued interest in the Gamers' Club Unlocked program!

Help and I;m not sure if this is the right place

I have a N900 and have just bought a Blueant S4 handfree unit
It appears I cannot transfer my contacts.
Does anyone know of a work around.....I am very techincally naieve.....
Thanks

not to be a bummer, but i believe that blue ant you are usung, you are going to want to transfer your copntacts to it to do the voice.
i do not believe it will work as per the bluetooth stack in the n900 is not compatible to send contact information even out to its own blutooth devices.
unfortunately, petrovich....which is now not nevessary to install by application because it iws now included with the firmware from pr1.2, will not allow you to send your contacts to the bluieant.
if you are able to get yourr blueant to somehow get your contacts and take voice commands, please do share your instruction.
