does anyone know if there is a way to remove the "Buy Music" button when you are playing a song in windows mediacenter. If already found an application that would hide the "Strips" like "Sports" and "Extras" but i cant seem to find any way to remove that darn Buy Music button. Thanks.

yeah thats what i thought too but where in those players do you go, in mediaplayer i did a file open, etc, and i looked around there no place that has that sort of an option, so i dunno, maybe it just doesn't work and ill have to get a video capture device, i was just hoping to be able to get that to work so i didn't have to.

lol sorry, im not that bad of a forum user as the post would have let you think, i was searching and i couldn't really find anything that i liked, and was just curious if anyone here had any idea.

I am looking for a 802.11n router that has the best performance at the longest range, i dont care about 802.11g or b and would like gig eth. is there one that can do 100mbps threw a wall or are they all close and line of site that do 100mbps? Thanks.

is there any software i can quick download so i can tell if its at least working then i can narrow it down to orb if thats the case

it is a VIVO card and i would like to use it with orb. it shows up as a webcam under orb but it doesnt seem to work.

no it is not an all in wonder card, but it did come with the dongle that has composite and s-video in and outs

my graphics card (sapphire x1900xt) came with a few dongles one is component out and the other is composite/s-video in and out, ive used the component before so i know that works but i decided i would like to use the video input so i can output my dvr and watch it threw orb however im not sure how i can view the video feed on my pc. Does anyone have any ideas?

in which case if i virtualized my fs then i would run into the disk issues situation described earlier

i plan to put 2008x64 on it, and i will do the separate disk thing as well

nope thats not an issue :)

the only thing thats a downer but i guess not to big of a deal, is that if i need to apply patches to the FS everything else must go down, thats why i originally had thought to do a FS in a VM, but making the host OS the FS does seem to alleviate the issues i may have with a virtual disk as described above in a few scenarios

so far i gather this is how i should set this up: Old PC: PDC New Server Build: 2x250 RAID1--For Host OS: 2008x64 4x750 RAID5--For VMs and FS Data Quad Core 8Gb RAM ---------------------- Host OS 2008x64 as FS w/data on RAID5 software: VMware Server BDC VM on RAID5 WWW VM on RAID5 VPN VM on RAID5 PCI raid card for RAID5? mobo RAID1 for Host OS? Other Hardware: 2TB NAS esata prefered or USB (for backing up RAID1 and RAID5) all of the OS's will be joined to the PDC's Domain this is for a small network so i dont think i will need the extra nics, the mobo will have 2 nics built in but if its better let me know and ill throw in however many PCI NICs i should get

i looked into and thought about doing Hyper-V but i know vmware and use it at work so thats why i was leaning vmware

what i was planning for virtual machines were a pdc (primary domain controller srv08), fs, www and vpn server and i was planning on building this myself but if its cheaper with your option i may do that instead so if this is the case, i would want to have my file server part of the domain which would be running as a vm, so i dont know how well that would work. actually i do have a few spare older computers if you were to suggest using a bdc like what you have and just run a pdc on an older box
