Need some help with this new setup I have

This is what I got for my new setup
A64 3000 939
K8N Neo4 Platinum MSI
1 gig of Mushkin duel chan. ddr 400
Gigabyte GeForce 6600 GT PCI-E
The ram I have is duel chan. I have no idea what this means  Or what the ram needs to be set to is it faster than non duel ddr? 

Quote from: igmox
it is like water flowing through two parallel pipes instead of one.

Another example you could think of duel channel memory could be like a 2 lane motorway.  You close one lane and cars can only go down 1 lane, but when you open another lane up thats another path for the cars to travel

One more thing is my psu going to be ok with that setup
Quote from: mrbell84
Yes your Power supply has 24 pin atx connector and also its a ATx2.0, which means its SLI/PCI-E Complient

  • Error 1603: Need some help with this one

    When installing iTunes I first get an error box saying
    "Error 1406: Could not write value to key \Software\classes\.cdda\OpenWithList\iTunes.exe. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel."
    The second one (after I click on Ignore on the last box) I get it this one:
    "Error: -1603 Fatal error during installation.
    Consult Windows Installer Help (Msi.chm) or MSDN for more information"
    Strange thing is that I do have full access to my computer (or atleast in all other cases I have had since I am the only one with an account on it).
    I have done my best in trying to solve it myself but I'm running out of ideas. I have downloaded latest versions from the website and tried installing Quicktime separately. I have also tried removing Quicktime using add/or remove programs though I just I didn't dare to take full removal because it said something about system files.
    Anyway I really need some help with this, anyone got any ideas?

    Do you know how to count backwards? Do you know how to construct a loop? Do you know what an autodecrementor is? Do you know how to use String length? Do you know Java arrays start with index 0 and run to length-1? Do you know you use length on arrays too? Do you know what System.out.println does?
    Show us what you have, there isn't anything here that isn't easily done the same as it would be on paper.

  • Need some Help with the new Genius Mixes on iTunes 9

    I would like to know how to use the New Genius Mixes on iTunes 9. I don't quit know how to use it yet and like all of us we're all just learning how to use the Genius Mixes. I did watch the KeyNote but they didn't go into great detail on how to use it. Does Apple have a web site that has more detail instruction on how to use the genius Mixes? I did find some info. on how to use the Genius mixes but it didn't go into great detail on how or what to do with the genius Mixex and thats what I need.
    when I click on the genius Mixes icon under the "Genius", what shows up is a Big square with four album images of my music that I have in my music collection, I go and roll my mouse over the Big square with my four music albums and click on it to play the music and it'll play what ever I have in the Genius Mix list plus as I roll my mouse over the Big Square, under it it says "Jazz Mix" with some text writings under the Jazz mix.
    I want to change the Jazz mix Title and I want to know how to add more music square boxes to my Genius Mixes just like they show in the Keynote and I would like to edit and create my own four square music boxes in my Genius Mixes.
    I never used my music genius list, I always created just a play List, now I am just learning how to use this music Genius lists and I don't know how to use it at all and I need someone that knows how to use thr Genius Mixes list to help me how to use it since there isn't a how to book yet for the new iTunes 9.
    Can someone Please help me with the new genius Mixes on iTunes.
    Thank you,

    Today, I was getting an array out of bounds exception on a split
    I don't see how that could happen with the 'split' method since it creates its own array.
    For this particular string, ordSplit.length = 24 and commas = 26.
    PERFECT! That is exactly what it should be!
    Look closely at the end of the sample string you posted and you will see that it has trailing empty strings at the end: '1096200000000242505,,,'
    Then if you read the Javadocs for the 'split' method you will find that those will NOT be included in the resulting array:
    http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/String.html#split(java.lang.String)
    split
    public String[] split(String regex)
    Splits this string around matches of the given regular expression.  This method works as if by invoking the two-argument split method with the given expression and a limit argument of zero. Trailing empty strings are therefore not included in the resulting array.
    Just a hunch but your 'out of bounds exception' is likely due to your code assuming that there will be 26 entries in the array and there are really only 24.

  • Need some help with this project (methods)

    Ok. in this project it states the following:
    Write an application that rolls a die and displays the reuslt. Let the user pick the number of sides on the die. Use the Die Class to represent the die in your program.
    This is what i have so far, but im confused on how to utilize the Die class because it keeps giving me errors:
    P4_3.java:
    Code:
    import cs1.Keyboard;
    import java.util.Random;
    // extends the Die class...
    public class P4_3 extends Die
    public static void main (String[] args)
    { // asks the user how many sides of the die there is.
    int userSides;
    System.out.println("How many sides of the die do you want?");
    userSides = Keyboard.readInt();
    System.out.println ("You rolled "+Die.die);
    }Die.java:
    Code:
    // the die class
    import cs1.Keyboard;
    import java.util.Random;
    public class Die extends P4_3
    public static void Die()
    // rolls the dice
    Random generator = new Random();
    int die;
    die = generator.nextInt(P4_3.userSides) +1;
    }It keeps giving me:
    cannot resolve symbol
    symbol : variable die
    location: class Die
    System.out.println ("You rolled "+Die.die);
    ^
    cannot resolve symbol
    symbol : variable userSides
    location: class P4_3
    die = generator.nextInt(P4_3.userSides) +1;Can somebody point me in the right direction?

  • I need some help with Flash Player. I have to constantly reinstall it on my computer.

    Can someone please help me with this??

    Pat, I have a Dell XPS Computer using Windows 7. I have had it for a little over a year and had no problems what so ever. Now all of a sudden my Flash Player has to be reinstall at least once every day if not more to work, but it does work great after it's reinstalled for as long as it will last. It does work fine when I use Google Chrome and I never have a problem there. I have uninstalled all of my Adobe products and reinstalled them but it did not help. I run Malware Bytes at least once a week and use System Mechanic every day and neither has found any problems with my system. I am not a tech but I am not a novis either.   Any info you can give me would be greatly appreciated!!!!!  Thanks

  • Need some help with this Design.  Not sure if it can be done.

    I am a full time RVer. I have a complex system installed in my RV. I am trying to share a wireless or use my AE to feed internet to the devices in my rack and allow my Apple TV to connect to my MBP over gigabit for streaming reasons.
    Is there a way to share my internet to the AE so that it will feed the 3 ports? Can I somehow connect to a hotspot and share that internet connection to the other devices on my network wired and wireless?? I am mainly concerned with getting internet to the ATV while connected to it via ethernet for the gigabit connection.
    It seems that I can connect the AE to a hotspot or WAP, but then I loose the ability to turn bridged mode off so that it will hand out DHCP ip addresses to the ethernet devices. I cannot extend any network unless the hotspot is using an apple device for its WAP. This is what apple told me when I was trying to extend my Linksys WAP4400N.
    Any ideas or advice here would be great. I am just stuck for a solution to what I want to accomplish.
    Thanks

    One possible solution....(if I understand correctly what you're trying to accomplish with what you have to work with) I'm assuming that the Linksys has no internet connection in the RV and isn't really needed in my idea below.....or do you have a satellite connection (or some other internet source besides a public wireless network?
    You could have your MBP join the wireless network, set up internet sharing (see OS X help) and share from airport to ethernet, connect an ethernet cable from MBP to WAN port on the Extreme, set the Extreme's connection sharing to "share a public IP", ignore the double NAT error (or you may be able to bridge it, I can't remember if the MBP will hand out several IPs but I think it will), and plug your Apple TV into a LAN port on the Extreme. Come to think about it, you really don't even need the Extreme unless you need other clients to connect, just plug the Apple TV into the MBP.
    hope it helps

    =============================

    I'm getting a error saying Paragraph is not a function, but nor is mystory.paragraph(0) , so i'm just trying to figure out what synax goes before that.
    =============================
    The text that is bold is the prolbem i'm having. I just got  a Javascript bible on how to program in javascript. How would i make that function work. I'm sure its simple. I'm just hoping I have If some Then ({) command follow by what I want it to do is correct. And I'm understanding this. there is so many different syntax's to choose from, any help would be appreciated. I work for a Newspaper company, and Indesign CS3 Javascript coding is a bit diffrent from normal javascript.

    Okie, I'm making progress now. Because well it didnt crash, but then again, LOL the script didnt apply the paragraph styles when I selected the text!
    any suggestions?
    I'm also getting a weird error now with the loop, but I also dont think its working because maybe the myStyle and myStle1 aren't applying themselves correctly, in the first part of the script.

  • Need some help with wi-fi setup, please

    I have just upgraded from Broadband opt 3 to infinity, currently getting stunning performance, but only when wired !
    Have been running a wifi network on a Draytek 2600G for several years now without any problems, comprising 1 desktop, 1 laptop, together with PSP's, Playstation, ipods, Nintendo DS etc, etc. Not surprisingly the HH3 doesn't seem to like this setup and runs like a dog.
    Seems to me that I should be able to connect my Vigor 2600G to (either) the Openreach modem, or the HH3, and turn off the facilities that I don't want - i.e. use the connectivity of  the HH3 with the wifi facilities of the Vigor 2600G?
    Any suggestions or advice on how to achieve this would be most welcome.
    regards
    Mick

    I  think that the Vigor 2600 has some PPPoE functionality, but my understanding was that it is not a VDSL router, so will not stand in totally for the HH3.
    What I have been able to do is to;
    a/   switch off HH3 wifi
    b/   assign IP address to the Vigor 2600 from the range used by HH3
    c/   switch off Vigor 2600's DHCP functions
    d/   cable from HH3 Ethternet to Vigor 2600
    Now connected with all devices talking to Vigor 2600 wifi, and via cable to HH3 & 'Net. It's not clear to me if I can move the DHCP functions to the Vigor, for ease pf management, but a workable solution, albeit involving 3 mains connections as compared with one previously. (Looks like  the Draytek 2750 will replace all this with a one box solution)
    Some speed numbers; (all downloads)
    We previously had BT Broadband running at approx 7.5 MB
    Cable connection to HH3 & Infinity runs at 35-37MB
    HH3 Wifi produces speeds in the region of 1-2 MB (actually, on my MacBook - the iMac in the corner of the living room refused to connect to the HH3 at all)
    Using HH3 with Vigor 2600 wifi gives between 18 & 21 MB

  • Really need some help with this low earpiece volume issue.

    I'm taking my iPhone to an Apple Store Genius tomorrow to check out the low volume in the earpiece. Has anyone else taken their phone in to an Apple Store and had the issue addressed? Are Geniuses just saying it is within spec? Has Apple published an article on this?
    I realize that people are also frustrated over the low speakerphone volume, but the low volume in the earpiece is particularly concerning.
    While traveling down the road it is very difficult to hear the person on the other end of the phone when using just the earpiece (no earbuds, no BT headset). The volume while using the earbuds is plenty loud.
    Can anyone please shed some new light on this? I have had my iPhone for one week and I've got a bad feeling in my gut that this is a hardware issue and the earpiece speaker can't go any louder. Bummer.
    (Obviously, all of my volume settings are maxed out).
    -Joe

    When the iPhones were first released, some people reported on their posts that they were able to take them to the Genius Bar, have a tech test it out, the tech would agree that the volume sounded low, and get their phone swapped right away. Unfortunately, there is no cut and dry answer because people have reported all sorts of different things- that the various software updates have fixed their volume, messing with the volume setting within iTunes, etc.
    Personally, I think it is a software glitch. Why? I did this: I was playing the iPod without the earbuds and the volume was only set midrange. I covered the speaker on the bottom, cranked up the volume, and the sound coming out of the receiver was MUCH louder than it ever is when I am using the iPhone on a call. That to me indicates that the low volume it just a glitch that can be fixed, because it CAN obviously sound louder, just within a different function. Hope that makes sense.
    Good luck tomorrow.

  • I need some help with my new podcast. Please!

    I've just set up a new podcast and it's online on itunes. The xml file is hosted on my website. Can i edit the text within this file...i.e. if there is a spelling mistake...ping this...and itunes will update it? Cos i tried doing that but no changes were made...any ideas?
    Also, to generate my xml file, i used this website
    http://www.podcastblaster.com/podcast-feed/index.php
    However i noticed that feedburner allows you to collate statistics on subscribers and podcast downloads....how can i switch to feedburner? i find this all so confusing. does anyone know what im talking about?

    From looking at their site, Podblaster creates the feed file from the data you give it: so it's no good you editing the feed file yourself as Podblaster will over-write it the next time you add an episode. Any changes you make to data or episode in Podblaster will cause an amended version of the feed file to be uploaded and this will eventually be reflected in the itunes Store; it usually takes 1-2 days, occasionally longer, for new episodes to appear in the Store, and it's possible that minor amendments to the texts won't show until you upload a new episode.
    To take advantage of Feedburner's statistics facilities you need to submit the feed to Feedburner, and then submit the feed it generates to the iTunes Store. This will involve you either using the procedure detailed here (which involves adding a special tag to the feed - something you may well not be able to do) or submitting this feed as a new podcast to the Store (which will necessitate making a small change to the name).
    If you have any further queries please post both the URL of your feed and of the iTunes Store page (please include the http:// in both cases), without which it's possible only to give very general answers.

    jeez, never thought i'd be asking a question like this after playing for like 20 years, but i need some help with a guitar setup for mac. i'm gonna list out a lot of crap here that prolly doesn't affect anything at all, but here goes.
    Imac 17inch G4 - latest updated OS X... 10.4, or 5, or whatever. garageband 3.0
    digitech gnx-3
    alesis sr-16
    sure mic's
    yamaha e203 keyboard
    here's the setup:
    yamaha is on its own on a usb uno midi interface, sure's connected to gnx's xlr port, alesis connected to gnx's jam-a-long input, '87 kramer vanguard connected to gnx's guitar input. currently running headphones out on gnx to line in on mac.
    here's the problem:
    everything works beautifully, but my guitar sounds like crap. if i plug headphones into the gnx, it sounds beautiful. that makes me think its some kind of level issue between the gnx's output, and the mac's input, but nothing seems to fix it.
    by sounding like crap, i mean way too much bass. sound is muddy, blurry, not crisp... aka crap. i've tried altering both output and input on mac and gnx, and i cant get a combination that works. the gnx has a s/pdif out, can the mac accept that as input? might that help? short of running the gnx to my marshal half stack and mic'ing that, anyone have any suggestions, or use a similar setup?
    any help would be greatly appreciated!

    anyone? ... any suggestions? I think it might be an issue with the gnx pre-amping the signal as it goes out, and then the mac amping it on the way in, giving me a buttload more signal than i need, but since i cant find a happy level, i'm not really sure. i really dont want to resort to mic'ing my marshall... even with the volume almost off, my jcm900 is WAY too loud for apartment use. its not like i really NEED the guitar to sound perfect, i only use garageband to sketch out ideas for songs between myself and bandmates, but its really annoying to not have my customary crisp distortion. my bass player keeps telling me to use the built in amps, but, not to dis a practically free program, but the built in amps blow, at least after 10 years of marshall tube amplification they do. if anyone has any suggestions that might be helpfull on how i might resolve this, i would be your best friend for life and go to all your birthday parties

  • Need some help with threads...

    Hello all,
    I am working on a project at work, and I am not the best programmer in the world. I have been trying to get my head around this for a couple of days and just cannot get it to work.
    I am writing an instrumentation control program that will have three threads. One is the GUI, one will receive control information and set up the hardware, and one will check the hardware status and report it to the GUI periodically. I plan on using the invokeLater() method to communicate the status to the GUI and change the status display in the GUI. Communication from the GUI to the controller thread and from the status thread to the controller thread I had planned on being piped input/output stream as appropriate. I have a control class and a status class that need to be communicated over these piped streams. In some trial code I have been unable to wrap the piped input/output streams with object input/output streams. I really need some help with this. Here is the main thread code:
    package playingwiththreads1;
    import java.io.*;*
    *public class PlayingWithThreads1 {*
    public static void main(String[] args) {*
    * PipedOutputStream outputPipe = new PipedOutputStream();*
    * ObjectOutputStream oos = null;*
    * ReceiverThread rt = new ReceiverThread(outputPipe);*
    // Start the thread -- First try*
    * Thread t = new Thread(rt);*
    t.start();*
    // Wrap the output pipe with an ObjectOutputStream*
    try*
    oos = new ObjectOutputStream(outputPipe);*
    catch (IOException e)*
    System.out.println(e);*
    // Start the thread -- Second try*
    //Thread t = new Thread(rt);*
    //t.start();*
    /** Send an object over the pipe. In reality this object will be a
    class that contains control or status information */
    try
    if (!oos.equals(null))
    oos.writeObject(new String ("Test"));
    catch (IOException e)
    try
    Thread.sleep(5000);
    catch (InterruptedException e)
    I read somewhere that it matters where you start the thread relative to where you wrap piped streams with the object streams. So, I tried the two places I felt were obvious to start the thread. These are noted in the comments. Here is the code for the thread.
    package playingwiththreads1;
    import java.io.*;
    public class ReceiverThread implements Runnable {
    private PipedInputStream inputPipe = new PipedInputStream();
    private ObjectInputStream inputObject;
    ReceiverThread (PipedOutputStream outputPipe)
    System.out.println("Thread initialization - start");
    try
    inputPipe.connect(outputPipe);
    inputObject = new ObjectInputStream(inputPipe);
    catch (IOException e)
    System.out.println(e);
    System.out.println("Thread initialization - complete");
    public void run()
    System.out.println("Thread started");
    try
    if (inputObject.available() > 0)
    System.out.println(inputObject.read());
    catch (IOException e)
    System.out.println(e);
    Through testing I have determined that no matter where I start the thread, the thread never gets past the "inputObject = new ObjectInputStream(inputPipe);" assignment.
    Could someone please help me with this? There are other ways for me to write this program, but this is the one that I would like to make work.
    Many thanks in advance,
    Rob Hix

    Thanks for the help, but that did not work. I tried flushing the ObjectOutputStream and it is still hanging when initializing the thread.
    Here is a better look at the code since I was helped to figure out how to insert it:
    The main method:
    package playingwiththreads1;
    import java.io.*;
    public class PlayingWithThreads1 {
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            PipedOutputStream outputPipe = new PipedOutputStream();
            ObjectOutputStream oos = null;
            ReceiverThread rt = new ReceiverThread(outputPipe);
            // Start the thread -- First try
            //Thread t = new Thread(rt);
            //t.start();
            // Wrap the output pipe with an ObjectOutputStream
            try
                oos = new ObjectOutputStream(outputPipe);
                oos.flush();
            catch (IOException e)
                System.out.println(e);
            // Start the thread -- Second try
            Thread t = new Thread(rt);
            t.start();
            /* Send an object over the pipe.  In reality this object will be a
             * class that contains control or status information */
            try
                if (!oos.equals(null))
                    oos.writeObject(new String ("Test"));
                    oos.flush();
            catch (IOException e)
                System.out.pringln(e);
            try
                Thread.sleep(5000);
            catch (InterruptedException e)
    }The thread code:
    package playingwiththreads1;
    import java.io.*;
    public class ReceiverThread implements Runnable {
        private PipedInputStream inputPipe = new PipedInputStream();
        private ObjectInputStream inputObject;
        ReceiverThread (PipedOutputStream outputPipe)
            System.out.println("Thread initialization - start");
            try
                inputPipe.connect(outputPipe);
                inputObject = new ObjectInputStream(inputPipe);
            catch (IOException e)
                System.out.println(e);
            System.out.println("Thread initialization - complete");
        public void run()
            System.out.println("Thread started");
            try
                if (inputObject.available() > 0)
                    System.out.println(inputObject.read());
            catch (IOException e)
                System.out.println(e);
    }Does anyone else have and ideas?

  • Need some help with ".png" image.

    Good day everyone. Here's the run down. I need to add an
    image (image "A") ontop of another image (image"B"). Image "B" is a
    paterned background. And Image "A" a logo with a transparent
    background.
    As it stands I have image "A" as a "png" and as you know....
    they are fri**ing huge! Haveing it as a "gif" only presents me with
    the IE6 problem of it adding a colored background to the image.
    So I'm stuck! Can any one tell me or point me in the
    difection of a tutorial to tell me the best way to add an image
    with a transparent background in Dreamweaver.
    Really need some help with this!
    Thanks all!

    Before going much further I'd recommend reconsidering the use
    of a textured background. They are usually included for the benefit
    of the site owner only, and likely to annoy visitors. Studies on
    the subject suggest they often lead to usability problems. I do
    like to header graphic, but at 200K it's kinda heavy and can
    probably be optimized.
