Having serious latency problems when gaming out of...

Hi there,
I run ADSL, and being in a semi-rural area its not fantastic - 4MB if I'm lucky, but generally its been quite stable and no major problems.
Over the last week or two I've noticed that my Home and World lag on WoW seems to jump dramatically, to the point of being unplayable.
I've done all the usual - tried wired, changed filters, reset router umpteen times and still seem to be sporadically afflicted by it.
I don't know if its much help or not, but here's a pathping, and a traceroute I did earlier.

Heat a problem when gaming?

So, I was trying out Left 4 Dead 2 last night in Win7 (Bootcamp). For some reason I felt bad to put my new iMac through such stress and to hear the fans start kicking in. I'm hoping It doesn't hurt it by getting too hot. Is there a good temperature sensor for Win7 that I can download to keep track of it? This computer does stay amazingly cool (right around 32 Celsius) when doing some web surfing in OSX.
Am I just being too paranoid about this? I did notice that the fan noise did decrease after playing for about half an hour. It seems like it did a good job of cooling it, but I'm afraid to push it too far after hearing about all the screen flickering problems right now on these discussion boards. Thankfully, mine hasn't done that yet and I've had this thing for almost a week now. The game recommended a 1080 screen resolution, but I even knocked it down to 720 just to be on the safer side.
Has anyone else done any gaming on the new 27" iMacs? What's a good temperature sensor I could use in Win7?
Thanks!

I would say, fans kicking in is a good thing! They're doing what they are built for: keeping your system cool. I'd be more worried if I was playing a game and my fans wouldn't kick in
As long as your system doesn't overheat (it'll shut down if it does) the fans will do their job keeping the temperatures well within acceptable range. I don't really know much about the maximum safe temperature, but I trust the operating system and their drivers to keep the system in a safe situation.
You could try one of the programs mentioned above and see how fast the fans are spinning. If the temperature is kept stable without having the fans going on fullspeed, I'd say your system is capable of taking care of things itself As a precaution you could make the fans spin faster to keep it cooler, but I trust my computer to keep itself safe so usually I just leave it as it is.

Filename problems when checking out documents

Hi,Client machines are using Windows NT4 SP6 and Internet Explorer 6.0.2800.1106CO. Environment is Plumtree 4.5 SP1, Collab Server 2.02.We have an issue whereby when users check out documents with periods in the filename, the default filename for the downloaded file is different from the original.Eg. If a document named test 0.1.docis uploaded, when this file is checked out, Internet Explorer will try and save it at test (0)0.1.doc. This means that users have to either manually change the filename in the Save As dialog box, or rename the file to it's correct name before checking it back in.Is this an issue Plumtree is aware of, and is there a workaround or fix?Thanks.Mun

Further investigation into this problem shows it does not occur when downloading using a straight A link. Eg. Internet Explorer does not change the filename if excutable 0.1.exe is used; only when downloading through Plumtree (checking out files).This is Plumtree Collaboration Server core functionality.Can anyone from Plumtree shed any light on this?Cheers,Mun

Problem when streaming out a binary file

Hi,
I am trying to stream out a binary file to an output stream (not a file, but a socket). My file is a gzip file, and I was initially simply trying to open the
file, read it to a a byte array, and writing it out to my output stream. However, I got corrupted data at my other end and it took me quite a bit of
debugging hours to find out why.
I tried writing to a file the same information I was writing to my output stream but, although my file was correct, my output stream still contained
corrupted data.
I think I have finally narrowed down my problem to the fact that when I try to write a 0x00 value to my output stream, everything gets ignored from this
point until I write a 0x0a byte to my output stream. Obviously this produces corrupted data, since I need all the bytes of my binary file.
If somebody can direct me as to how to write a 0x00 value to a socket output stream, I would really appreciate your input.
This is a sample of my code (Right now I am writing byte by byte: not very efficient, but was the only way I found where I was getting a problem):
// out is of type OutputStream
if (Zipped){
     // In this case we just have to stream the file out
File myFile = new File(fileName);
     FileInputStream inputFile = new FileInputStream(myFile);
     FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(new File("/tmp/zip.gz")); //zip.gz results in a good (not corrupted) file.
     ByteArrayOutputStream out1 = new ByteArrayOutputStream(1024);
     int bytes = (int)myFile.length();
     byte[] buffer = new byte[bytes];
     bytes = inputFile.read(buffer);
     while (bytes != -1) {
          out1.write(buffer,0,bytes);
          bytes = inputFile.read(buffer);
     inputFile.close();
     try {
          int count=0;
          bytes=out1.size();
          while (count<bytes){
               fos.write(buffer,count,1);
out.write(buffer,count,1); // when buffer[count] == 0x00, everything after it gets ignored until a 0x0a byte is written.
               count++;
     } catch (IOException ioe) {
          SysLog.event("IOEXCEPTION: "+ioe);
     } catch (Exception e) {
          SysLog.event("EXCEPTION: "+e);
     fos.flush();
     fos.close();
     out.flush();
out.close();
     return;
}

Actually, I had thought about that and for some time I tried getting rid of some of the header information in the gzipped file, and then I stopped doing that when I realized that part of the gzipped file is a CRC value which I believe is computed taking into account both the data of the file and the header information. If this is the case, then getting rid of part of the header would produce a corrupted file ... but then, I might be wrong in this issue.
Anyway, to make my application more clear, what I am doing is writing the code for a cgi command which is suppossed to access information from a database, create an xml file, gzip it, and then send it to the client who requested the information.
Therefore, what I am sending is an xml file (Content-Type: text/xml) in compressed format (Content-Encoding: gzip). Note that if I don't gzip the file and then send it uncompressed to the client, I have no problems. However, for me it is very important to gzip it because the size of the file can get very large and that would just take bandwidth unnecessarily.
On the other hand, if I try to gunzip the file locally, I have no problem either (the file is not corrupt at the server's end). Therefore, my problem is when I stream it out.
Any further help would be really appreciated!

Problems when logging out

Hello Forum,
I just upgraded my system succesfully to 10.3.9. Everything seems to be working perfectly. Except when i try to log out. If i hit the log out button, my screen turn blue and stays blue. Nothing happens, even if i wait for a long time. It just seems to be stuck. I see a blue screen and a arrow.
If i use the shut down option, i also get a blue screen, but i also see the reassuring circle of stripes, indicating my Apple is thinking. After that is normally shutting down. The same if i use the 'restart' function.
Does anybody maybe knows what is wrong with my system and how i can fix it. Thanks already for your help.
regards
Paul

I've never seen the problem and haven't heard about it until your post. Since it's occurring on your lab machines, I suspect a faulty installation image. Without any details on how you deployed the image or what's installed, it's impossible to track down from here. Since the update didn't affect it, try booting in safe mode and see what occurs. You might have to reinstall the baseline Leopard version you used and slowly rebuild it.

Ouch! MSI GE60 crazy problem when gaming

Hi all-
I have GE60 and when I play a game (EQII) more than about 20 minutes- comp goes freaking crazy and does whatever it wants....
Ingame= avatar starts running around, spins in circles, chat window starts zip-typing whatever it wants ,(nnnnnnnnnnnnnxxxxx) etc.
It seems to be escalating- when out of game after ingame problem occurs, desktop starts shaking all over, any program I am running jumps around and starts flashing menu bars on and off.
Is this an overheating problem? It seems the fan isn't turning on. How do I or can I repair this problem?

And install MSI Afterburner to check realtime temperature ingame on-screen.

New 2012 Mac mini having screen resolution problem when I connect to either 27" LG or 22" Hannspree monitor. Tried mini display port to VGA/HDMI and HDMI to DVI-D cables... all same isse

New 2012 Mac mini having issues in connecting to third party Monitors. Connected my mac mini to a 27" LG monitor. Text looks blurred. Tried connecting to the monitor using 3 options. 1) mini port to HDMI, then HDMI cable to LG monitor. 2) Mini port to VGA, then VGA cable to monitor 3) HDMI port on mini mac to DVI-D cable then DVI to DVI cable... In all cases text is not clear. Anyone has similar issues with latest mini mac. The monitor works fine when I connect to a windows 7 Samsung laptop. Any input is highly appreciated. Thanks in Advance

Why do you use always 2 cables? There's a lot that can go wrong.
1.) Hardware:
- Use only one cable, best an HDMI->HDMI cable. It doesn't need to be an expensive one, they've proven to be no worse than those "esoteric", expensive ones.
- Set the monitor to the HDMI input.
- The modes you are listing are only "picture modes" changing color/brightness/contrast settings, not resolution or the likes, so pick the one you like best later, or enter your own settings under Custom.
2.) OS X:
- Usually the Mac detects the screen itself and chooses the best settings, so by default you need to do nothing than make a proper hardware connection to get a decent image.
- However, there have been issues with new Mac Minis and particularly their HDMI ports. But reportedly they have been fixed with a software update. So, launch the App Store and check under Updates if there is one for you to install. If so, do it; otherwise you should be good to go.
- If you require, go to System Preferences -> Displays. In the Dispaly tab, by default, "Best for display" should be selected, and that is typically true. If you want, select "Scaled" and 1920x1080, plus a frequency from the list (where higher is usually better, but just pick the one that works best for you). If you can't see a change to the better, you best go back to "Best for display".
- If you are not happy with the colors on your screen, you'll find eventually more than one choice in the Color tab, though your particular screen should be in the list and its Display Profile should get you the best result. (Double-check picture modes on your display: if you're far off there, you won't make it much better with the Mac's settings).

Iconia A1-830 has a Wifi connection problem when it out to 3-5 meters

I bought Aser Iconia A1-830 in BestBuy and after 10 days I found out the Wifi Connection problem. If you stay close to router (1-3 meters) the WiFi signal is Good (not excellent). If I go to another room - Wifi connection is Poor or disabled. I changed it for another one (the same model). The second model was perfect only 1.5 months and now it has the same wifi connection problem. Can somebody help me? Maybe the problem in my router, but why it worked 1.5 months?

I'm not sure what the real reason is, but I do know it's a it of a hassle getting the connectors pushed back on. They are very tiny and take some pressure to install and I could easily imagine a wire not completely tied in place moving enough to work loose. Let us know how yours comes out.

IPhoto 4.0.3 color and Brightness problems when printing out photos.

In addition to my previous question, I forgot to mention that opening the iPhoto 4 JPEG photos in Photoshop also import as dark and reddish tinted. Help?

This color management thing gets pretty complicated. To get the best results you have to synch monitor calibration with camera and print settings.
There is also the difference between additive (light)and subtractive (pigment- ink) color. The monitor starts with black - 0%, adds red, green and blue to a pixel (picture element) and gets white 100%. A printer starts with white (paper) and when all the colors are added gets black - this is different then using true black ink.
So by their nature the display on the monitor and print are quite different. Typically monitors are set to maximum brightness and contrast. A photo appears light and less than saturated. Printing at BEST PHOTO lays on lots of ink dpi. So the print is going to be saturated and darker than the monitor image - for most users.
Professionals go to great effort to calibrate and control the effect of printing versus display. For us users it takes experimenting and experience to be able to judge the difference between display and output (print).
I have found that using Adobe RGB settings the photo as seen in PhotoShop is very close to the high quality print PhotoShop produces. That is why I do most adjustments in PhotoShop and use iPhoto for cropping and rotating pictures for the web or email.
The key to getting the best print in iPhoto is your printers color management settings.

I'm having a small problem when trying to restore my macbook to the factory settings without the disk

Hey, everyone. Just a quick question. I know that to reset a macbook to it's factory settings without the disk you press the OPTION key during startup; however, when you do so, apparently you see 2 hard drives and one says "recovery." When I do it, I only see one hard drive that does not say recovery. Any one know why this could be? Thanks so much for any help offered.

I have 10.8 installed on this computer...I know it didn't come with it, it came with Snow Leopard....Anyway I've updated it, and when I boot if I press and hold the Option key, it still just boots off the drive. The only way I can get it to spring to life and do anything else is to press and hold Command + R in which case it then goes to the recovery option with the ability to restore OS X...Am I missing something??
