Some questions for IdeaCentre Q100

Hello, I recently purchased the Q100 compact desktop (2 days ago) for $177 USD, but now I am having second thoughts on keeping it, mainly because I am unsure how upgradeable it is.  Can some please try to answer my questions, below?
-  The system came with 1 GB memory.  I cannot find any official specs saying if more RAM can be installed.  Can memory be upgraded to more than 1 GB, like maybe 2 GB.  That would be just fine if it did 2 GB, since it is running XP anyway.
-  The BIOS is pretty sparse on what things I can change.  For example, can the amount of shared video memory be changed from 128 MB to something else?   It would be nice to tone it down to 64MB or up to 256MB, etc.
-  Speaking of the BIOS, have there been any revisions I can download if I decided to update and reflash it, such as to fix a known problem?
-  I have already experienced a blue screen (XP) on it, and that was the night I took it out of the box and ran a few things.  I am wondering if that was just a thermal issue, since the Q100 doesn't use a fan system, even though it is running on an Atom. 
Anyway, just need to know if anyone has any ideas on the questions above, especially the first 3.  Thanks in advance.  

I've been able to find an answer to most of the questions.
use CNTRL key when clicking in the network type drop down, to be able to reveal the "Join Network" option, not normally visible without CNTRL key
5gig N issue is causing all the slow extended network issues, its slightly faster when transferring between ethernet and wifi client
Still don't know if it's possible to connect a modem to the extending network base station

    I use Sun Java System We Server 7.0 for my project.
    But I have some question on SJSWS 7.0
    My server runtime information
    1. OS is RedHat Enterprise 3
    2. memory: 2G
    3. SJSWS version: 7.0 preview 3
    My questions
    Q1. The speed that download image is slower than the speed that run JSP page . The image's size to smaller than 5 KB. Is it possible to speed up download image
    Q2. My machine has 2GB memory, The system use swap area always. I think it isn't enough of SJSWS 7.0. How much memory size that SJSWS 7.0?
    Many thank for everybody

    first off, please try the Update 1 release in stead of technology preview releases: http://www.sun.com/download/products.xml?id=467713d6
    Q1> So I want to ask it is possible to display image and text at the same time like use Tomcat ?
    there is nothing in the server end (whether it's Tomcat or any other web server) that affects how the content is displayed on the browser.
    Q2>I detect The ram was used over 800M~1G by SJSWS7. My website has 80~150 user in workinghour
    Are you seeing Web Server process measuring so much memory?
    Q3> Is it possible that the admin server use SJSWS7U1 and some or all of node use SJSWS preview 3, because the server is running on line, I can't stop them for update server
    No - you want to switch to U1 anyway, since it's a released version (and is absolutely FREE for production use).

  • Some questions for ressources provisionning.

    Hello people.
    I'm currently playing around with LDoms on a new brilliant shiny T5520 and I have some questions about.
    My actual configuration is the following:
    - 1 T5520 Server with 32 Gb RAM and a 8 cores 64 threads Niagara T2
    - 4 SAS 143 Gb disks on controller 1.
    The disk are mirrored using raidctl in two pairs of raid 1, c1t0d0 and c1t2d0.
    The primary OS is installed on c1t0d0 and I plan to use ZFS for creating vdisks LDoms guests on c1t2d0.
    I have access to a netapp but only with iscsi and nfs.
    So, the questions:
    - Does it make sense to use ZFS on hard mirrored disks ?
    - Is it best to add the two disks non mirrored to my ZFS pool and backup snapshots on the netapp ?
    - Does my LDoms needs more memory that I planned ? Each guest will have between 2 Gb and 4 Gb for the bigger. I will have, at the beginning 4 or 5 guests for testing / integration, LDAP / DNS services, Licences services, Web Portal, and, maybe, if I could convince my boss a little SPARC Gentoo Linux, just for fun :)
    Thanks :)
    PS: Forgive my poor English, I'm a French bas***d guy :)

    You mean T5220, great machine anyway :)
    - RAID hardware is supposed to be faster than ZFS, but ZFS offer more functionalities.
    - you need both mirroring and backup, even if nice, ZFS snapshot cannot replace a backup software.
    - Keep a free memory pool not allocated and ready to increase the RAM size of a LDOM (rebooting the LDOM will be necessary). And hum... use it to play with linux for sparcs :-)

  • Some questions for class project? Trying to learn more about the iPhone

    Hey guys, I am looking for some quick feedback on the iPhone and possibly the iPad for a class assignment. If anyone could share information on the following questions that would be fantastic. Thanks!
    1. What are some of the disadvantages of Apple not providing Flash/USB for its products(iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch)?
    2. Why should customers buy an iPad (no USB) rather than the Kindle (USB ports)?
    3. Why do you think Apple doesn't provide Flash/USB ports to its products (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch)?
    4. Would the lack of USB/Flash in Apple products affect your decisions to purchase Apple products versus a competitor's product?
    5. Do you expect that Apple will begin to incorporate technologies such as USB/Flash in the future as competitor products begin to steal market share?
    6. Apple views Flash as a dying technology. Steve jobs has even compared not supporting Flash on the iPad to Apple dropping support for floppy drives. Do you believe there is any value to this analogy and why?
    7. What do you think could be some good aspects of no USB on the iPad?
    8. What affect will the implementation of HTML5 have on the issues with iPad's lacking Flash capabilities?
    9. How did you gain an interest in Apple how would you rate that product and would it it recieve a higher rating if it provided USB/Flash?
    10. Would you be more interested in purchasing a Apple product if USB use was provided? Or would this quality not have any affect on your decision to purchase the product?

    This sounds more like a marketing survey...

  • Random Shutdowns Started Again After Fix - Some Questions for Others

    ::sigh::
    After a very prompt repair followed by 3 weeks of constant use with no problems, tonight I had another random shutdown. (Here we go again.) I never was able to find anyone at Apple who could tell me what they fixed (it was not a logic board replacement) but apparently it wasn't a permanent fix.
    Some observations and questions:
    When random shutdowns start, my "previous shutdown code" in the system log changes to -72, and continue to register as -72 even when I shutdown the computer myself. During the period when the system was working after the repair, shutdown codes were always 0s or 3s. Have others noticed the same pattern? In my experience, once that first negative code appears, it doesn't change back to normal, regardless of how the computer is turned off (except after the repair).
    Also, tonight was the first time since my repair that I used the 3-prong power cord with the AC adapter (rather than just the two prong). Could there be any connection (perhaps a faulty cord sendinga surge to the system and damaging something)? During the last round, shutdowns occurred whether on AC power or battery, but I'm wondering if the use of that cord may have triggered the problem in the first place. Has anyone that has had random shutdowns never used the 3-prong cord at all?
    The other thing I've noticed is that importing digital camera photos into iPhoto often seems to trigger shutdowns (not all of them, but some of them). My random shutdown tonight happened after editing photos I'd just imported from my camera (and right after I ejected and unplugged the camera). Could the connection to the camera somehow cause a problem? Has anyone who has had random shutdowns NOT connected a digital camera or used iPhoto?
    Just grasping at straws here to try to figure out what causes this problem (since apparently Apple hasn't figured it out yet). Looks like I'm going to have to take it back again. I love my MacBook better than any PC I've ever had, but I never had these kind of hardware problems with my PCs (and if I did have a problem it was usually pretty simple to troubleshoot and repair).

    I think you're confused, it's not as simple as that.
    Here's why - I just ran two yes terminal sessions on my wife's MacBook and let it run for 15 minutes. Fan came on, system is running warm but running just fine.
    On my RSD MacBook, while I was at the Apple Store, trying to demonstrate the RSD it ran two yes terminals for like 5 minutes and kept running however when I closed Terminal - wham RSD.
    It IS NOT heat related. Most likely the system "thinks" there's a heat problem by a bad sensor, wire whatever.
    If I can't run my MacBook at 100% (actually 200%, both cores) for as long as I need then it is defective and should be returned to Apple.
    When my MacBook was working I ran EVN (Escape Velocity NOVA) which runs under Rosetta, man that thing sucked the battery dry in less than 60 minutes and the system got pretty warm too. BUT IT KEPT running and didn't shut down. When my system was acting up I couldn't even browse the Apple web site and ut would shutdown.
    Greg
    PS I installed the SMC update a week before my system started having RSD.

  • Some Questions for IDS MC?

    1. After alert events are pruned into the fold "AlertPruneData", they will become some "txt" files. Which application can I use to read the events from these txt file?
    2. For the default alarm pruning, it is stated in the document only the events in the alert table will be pruned. But after pruning, I can see some syslogxxx.txt files in the "AlertPruneData" folder. Does it mean that the events in the syslog table have been pruned too?
    Thanks for your all comments

    You can prune alarms based on a number of different criterion such as 'alarms older than the specified number of days' or 'number of events in a table has exceeded a given limit'. Also, pruning can be done on a specified table or tables, ie you can specify the type of table to be pruned. You can choose from the table types syslog, alert, auditlog, deploy and sysconfig or you could list multiple tables (using a comma-delimited list).
    'Default alarm pruning' and 'default syslog pruning' are two database rules for pruning event that by default are present in the Database Rules page. Further, It is my understanding that all pruned data goes(is archived in) the same folder. What might be happening is that the syslog messages you see were pruned from the syslog table by the 'default syslog pruning rule' and not the alerts table.
    If you wish to do so, default rules too can be modified. For more information, you could take a look at the document Administering Security Monitor at the URL http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/cscowork/ps3991/products_user_guide_chapter09186a00800e4371.html

  • Some questions for K8N Neo2 Platinum

    Hi guys I'm quite new to Amd64 and just got the Neo2 plat and 3000+ from garage sales 2 days back. Just wanna ask the experts here is it true that sata 1 and 2 for this board doesn't have pci locked? I read this in 1 of the reviews before and it stated something like this...
    We should note here, that we did run into issues using SATA 1 and 2 and overclocking. We quickly found out that these two SATA connectors did not lock with the PCI lock. We switched our drive to SATA 3 or 4 and everything was just fine. I am not sure if this can be fixed with a bios update, but unless you like hard drives corrupted, you should use SATA 3 and 4 if you plan on overclocking.
    http://www.bleedinedge.com/reviews/msi_neo/msi_neo_05.html
    Anyone has any problems so far about this or this problem has been fixed by newer bios? Another thing is that I'm keen to overclock this chip as I'm reading those overclocking reviews but based on you guys experience, how far can I push using stock hsf with the current idle temp? My load temp for my current setup is 50c max running prime95 stable for 8hrs+
    Cheers 

    Thanks for the posts guys been a great help. Now I'm reading the issues of this board for the link below and thanks Supershanks for the link. You been a great help 
    I like MSI products especially their board coz I find their stuff well design and distro is good. I'm also using 865PE Neo2 PLS on my prescott no problem so far but after reading the related problems of this Neo2 Plat from the link above, can I say this board is a quite a failure product? 
    When I just got this board, I'm having problems when trying to change the HT Multiplier. It just empty when I hit enter and refused to go back even when I hit esc key. Reboot and tried a few times till I figured out it can be changed using the +/- key but this problem is gone after that and my first impression is my new board spolit? I mean don't the engineers or tech guys check through before they released these board to the market? There's no QC for this? Maybe I'm wrong to use the word, QC or etc sorry I might not be good at this. I wonder if they knew this bug in the first place? If they do but refused to fix it and just release the board that's lame. If they don't then the QC or whatever final checking/testing is real bad for this board coz they don't even realized this problem 
    Now I saw the link for another problem of mine again
    Problem description:
    Starting-up the system gives you a hard lockup (freeze) with or without blank screen.
    Some times, at boot time, the system says it is overclocked, but you know there is no overclock.
    You must clear CMOS for be able to boot at every system startup.
    I have this problem too and I'm going to read it but I don't need to clear bios, I just need to hit the power button again and the machine will boot to bios but this is quite irratating haha now I'm going to read to see how can I fix this problem.
    Once again don't get the wrong idea, I'm not here to flame MSI coz I like their products too just that a quick browse of the link above made me realized this board has so many problems haha
    Anyway thanks again for your time guys take care 

  • Some question for experts !! Urgent

    I have following queries:
    1) When a copy fucntion fails, if i get an error message saying a variable could not be determined. Can i change the text for the same to make it user friendly.
    2) If i have a fucntion geeting executed before display of layout...i.e it executes and on success layout gets diaplyed. Now if the fucntion fails, ideally, we get error message and layout is nt displayed. can i have soem check so that it displays error message and also show layout. fucntion executed is a copy fucntion and if there is nothign to be copied it would fail but that should not stop the displ of layout for users.
    3) can we ever highlight a row in layout with diff color and after soem function execution the highlight goes away...
    please help me on this urgently..expert opinion is awaited

    1. the error message could be changed in the abap code
    2. why dont you have the layout showing first before executing the function. [...assuming that you're using WAD to configure].
    You can set the "characteristics" to show in the layout even wthout data by setting its properties in the Query designer to show "master data". this you do by clicking on the characteristic and changing the setting to Master data in Advanced tab.
    3. Having colors in rows can be made possible if you're using Report Designer. [i.e pulling the query into report designer].

  • SOME SIMPLE QUESTIONS FOR ALL OF YOU

    hi,
    I have some questions for all of you.
    1. Oracle uses cgi (even asp!!! I've seen an asp page somewhere on an Oracle's site but this moment I don't remember where perhaps it is asp->cgi). Why ?
    Oracle doesn't support their techologies
    (Pl/SQL, Jsevlets,XML) ?
    2. Oracle says that has just released a
    new product for mobiles called "Portal2Go".
    I tried to install this product on NT with OAS 4.8.1.
    I had many problems during the installation and after many tries finally I did it(thanks God). but the problems continue...
    many Jsp errors (from the "tested" supplied apps). My question is:
    a. This product is in an early stage (many installation errors.. just a baby) and I think is stable for Sun Solaris but not on NT.
    b. You Oracle "experts" (i.e. oracle staff, NOT YOU guys) tell me ONE advantage to use you product (I'm an oracle developer for 6 years now):
    You say that I can PORT my existing app in any device and Web (through XML). This is a joke. Mobiles,PalmPCs,Web etc. have different requirements (content,display etc).The scope is different.. so this is absolutely FALSE (to use a boolean).
    This release is user unfrienlty. Why.. tell me WHY to pay for a product and for extra hardware (read the product technical reqs!!) to do the SAME THINK
    I do NOW with existing sources.
    I've developed an app for my company's employees using existing version of DB (8.0.5),pure pl/sql and a WAP GATEWAY.NOTHING LESS NOTHING MORE.
    please answer. Any comment welcomed...
    maybe I'm wrong maybe I'm not.
    PS.WHERE THE WAP GATEWAY/SERVER IS. I searced the cd and..nothing :-) ?
    thanks

    Portal-to-Go is a wireless portal server, the first version was released November 1999.
    The problems you describe that mobiles, Palm devices, etc all have different characteristics is one of the key reasons for Portal-to-Go. It allows any service to be displayed on any device by generating content in an appropriate format for specific devices. This way you can take into consideration the size of the screen, the display characteristics, etc.
    It is 'stable' on Solaris and NT, though it is true that the installation procedure of the CD is for Solaris only. The product is not currently available on OTN, so the installer restrictions should have been explained to you when you obtained the CD.
    Why Portal-to-Go? Here's three reasons:
    1. Inherent problems of the User Interface for a wireless device, so we provide a way personalise the UI to improve navigation and allow commonly used parameters to be saved as stored preferences through the portal.
    2. Differences in the characteristics between wireless devices make it hard to support all type without re-creating content and applications for each specific case. With Portal-to-Go, the same service can be accessed from any device.
    3. Lack of content available for WAP and other wireless devices. We have tools to quickly create wireless services from existing Web sites as well as an application platform for creating new Java or database applications for wireless devices.
    You are correct that the product does not have a WAP gateway.
    I'm not sure where you are located, but feel free to contact me offline. I can answer any specific questions, or get you contact with a local Oracle representative.
    At the moment, if anyone wants to obtain a copy of Portal-to-Go, you should contact your local Oracle representatives.
