Hi. The hard drive in my other rarely used compfuser is failing. Does not end loading... Cannot 'extract' the operative system. The data I do not care, has been regularly backed and have it safe. The web is filled with instructions on how to backup the data for hard drive replacement, but cannot find what am asking here. Replacing the hard drive with a new one, how to reload/reinstall my very legal Microsoft software copy that came installed with it? Never got a CD with the operative system when I bought it. It has the Microsoft sticker with the bunch of numbers. Seen it done somehow at PC service shops, but never paid attention. Think it was via internet…

So on the UML Diagramming on Visio, I screwed up the settings on something and now I can't set the multiplicities on my arrows. Somehow I made it disappear from the edit window that pops up when you double click on the arrow. I can't get it to go back to the way it was. Is there a way to reset EVERYTHING so I can make sure it's fixed?

OK... so I've just started programming in Java and I decided to write a little program where the user enters a number and the computer determines whether or not it's a prime. The math work behind it is functioning perfectly(I know because I ran it repeatedly without do-while), but my do-while loop isn't, for some reason it exits the loop after one go or gives me an error message about variables). Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks! Oh, btw I'm writing it in Notepad++ and running it in command prompt. import java.util.Scanner; public class PrimeCalculator { public static void main(String[] args) { Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in); do{ System.out.pr…

How can I stop this? I know in C++ you can write 'private:' and the coding won't show up when trying to decompile but how do I do it in a batch file? Thanks.

So much heat coming from multiple devices. My pc and xbox are pumping the heat in my room to 80+ degrees. As well as the fans which can keep a person up at night. I'm looking into a new case for my pc as well as installing a custom water cooling system. This got me to thinking about cooling my xbox as well. Is there such a case out there that can fit all of my xbox 360 components as well as my pc components? I was really interested in the CM HAF X, but I don't believe I can mount 2 motherboards into that case. Or perhaps is there any way to partition parts of my pc to running my xbox and trashing xbox components? I saw the Origin big O which is EXACTLY wh…

I have a bit of knowledge of cmd and have been trying to play a prank on my brother. I wantto use the shutdown /r command on his computer. I know the code goes like: shutdown /r /m \\computername But it says access denied. I have read that there is a registry that needs to be activated i think but not sure. Also, I have windows 7 ultimate and he has home premium not that there is much different but i think ultimate has one or 2 different cmd options eg. msg We are connected to wifi at the house with no server computer. Please help and dont worry I am responsible but just a little into tricks for a giggle. Thanks

Hello. This is my first post. My english might be a little bit rusty, but i'll do my best to express what is troubling me. As I write this words, my computer is running a Matlab routine searching for the solution to n x n sistem of equations. This routine is supossed to deliver a solution vector which I need in order to go on with my Final Project so as to receive my degree in Material Engineering. However, Matlab ain't using all the resources the machine can give. For instance, out of the 24 threads, only one is being full solicitated. The same goes on for the RAM memory, only a 17% is being used. So the question is, is there a way to boost Matlab? How can I a…

I've built my rig up to workstation class and am finally ready to buy my top end graphics card to replace my HD5770. I was expecting to be doing a lot with programming/rendering and I had hoped to have accomplished much in terms of having my own personal platform to start developing algorithms while in school. Although my platform is pretty well roughed out it is nowhere near complete and I'm not sure if I can do school and program like I have been. So now I'm left with a dilemma. I had planned to purchase a Tesla C2070 but this would be an extreme waste if I never used it within the next four years. Mid way I have looked at the FirePro v8800 and this is a fairly …
