    To reformat your going to need the disks that came with your laptop, as stated above dont backup executables because they may be infected.

    Sony pro vegas 8 and 9 photoshop,game-combat arms

    These contain exe's, they shouldn't be backed up, and you should have the original manufactured disk for these anyway. Just back up your game saves and project files.

    Once all this is backed up, to removable media, pop the disk in that came with the laptop, and restore it to factory.

    The CPU fan "flickers" when the PS switched in the back is flipped on

    Thats normal.

    More information is needed. the symptoms of the PC sound like its in Hibernation.

    What caused the problem? has any new hardware been added? have you stipped her back and tried running it at bare minimum?

    Ive always found in-ear to be the best, specially for running, and noise reduction (school).

    Though admittedly when i first got them, it was a little weird having lil bubs jammed deep into my ear, but eventualy you get use to them.

    You use of $_SESSION is fine, but there is something wrong with your IF statements.

    For the session to be created, going by you IF logic, you already need to have a username Session created, this can be fixed by moving your else statement back on brace.

    Try this though:

    <?php
    session_start();
    
    if (isset($_POST['pass']))
    {
        $_SESSION['username'] = $_POST['username'];
        $_SESSION['pass'] = $_POST['pass'];
    }
    
    if (isset($_SESSION['username']))
    {
        echo("Username = ".$_SESSION['username']." Password = ".$_SESSION['pass']);
    }
    else
    {
        ?>
            <html>
            <body>
              <form action="<?php PHP_SELF; ?>" method="post">
                Username:<input type="text" name="username">
                Password:<input type="text" name="pass">
                <input type="submit" value="Login">
              </form>
            </body>
            </html>
        <?php
            
    }
?>

    Rogue PCs or devices

    There is many of ways to stop this, physical or digital, trying to connect to the users PC is probably the worst / Hardest.

    Follow digininja's suggestion and trace it physically back to the user, or just ban the MAC from either your servers or switches, even to the point of re-routing his traffic.

    You want to know who it is? well ask yourself what are they doing? Going to websites, signing into Email accounts or social sites, then its easy to track down who they are.

    AutoIT Scripting help

    in Applications & Coding

    Posted

    downloaded AutoIT, and got it working, issue with your FileInstall function, you opened a brace, but never closed it, but reading up, i found fileCopy works better.

    If $WATCH = True Then
; New USB Drive Was Detected, Time to Find it's Letter
    $New = FindNewDrive()
    $Label = DriveGetLabel($New)
    $MyDrive = $New & "\"
    FileCopy("C:\test.bmp", $MyDrive)

EndIf

    Heres the copy i have working.

    Dim $DBT_DEVICEARRIVAL = "0x00008000"
Dim $DBT_DEVICECOMPLETEREMOVAL = "0x00008004"
Dim $USB_ATTENTION = "0x00000007"
Dim $WM_DEVICECHANGE = 0x0219
Dim $Drives
Dim $Drive_Type = "ALL"; Set to ALL because some USB Drives are detected as Fixed Disks, and we don't want to miss those
Dim $WATCH = False
Dim $MyDrive = "STUFF"

;Get Initial List of Drives to Check Against
UpdateDrives()
;Setup The GUI to watch for the DeviceChange Event
GUICreate("")
GUIRegisterMsg($WM_DEVICECHANGE, "DeviceChange")
Func DeviceChange($hWndGUI, $MsgID, $WParam, $LParam)
Switch $WParam
Case $USB_ATTENTION
; This only happens when USB drives are inserted, so I use it to tell the difference between these and CDROMs
$WATCH = True
Case $DBT_DEVICECOMPLETEREMOVAL
; Whenever a Drive is Removed, Update the Drive List
UpdateDrives()
Case $DBT_DEVICEARRIVAL
; A drive was inserted
; Use $WATCH to tell if this was a CDROM or USB
; $WATCH = True, USBs
; $WATCH = False, CDROM
If $WATCH = True Then
; New USB Drive Was Detected, Time to Find it's Letter
    $New = FindNewDrive()
    $Label = DriveGetLabel($New)
    $MyDrive = $New & "\"
    FileCopy("C:\test.bmp", $MyDrive)

EndIf
; Now Reset Drive List so more insertions can also be detected accurately
UpdateDrives()
EndSwitch
EndFunc;==>DeviceChange

; This just jumps through the new Drive List, comparing them until it finds the entry that is in the new one that isn't in the old one
Func FindNewDrive()
$Temp = DriveGetDrive( "REMOVABLE" )
For $i = 1 to $Temp[0]
$Old = False
For $j = 1 to $DRIVES[0]
If $DRIVES[$j] == $Temp[$i] Then $Old = True
Next
If $Old == False Then Return $Temp[$i]
Next
EndFunc;==>FindNewDrive

; Just to keep things neat, and so if Variables Ever Change, this makes updating easier
Func UpdateDrives()
$Drives = DriveGetDrive( $Drive_Type )
EndFunc;==>UpdateDrives

; Main Loop to Keep the Program Open
; No Real Way of ending this program, except for just killing the process
; Which is what I want, an always on backup for my drive every time I insert it
While 1
$GuiMsg = GUIGetMsg()
; This is needed because the watch event above not only triggers before a USB Drive is inserted/removed,
; but also AFTER insertion too, and if not reset, a subsequent CD insertion will trigger it again.
; So, every second, we reset $WATCH, to keep things clean
Sleep (1000)
$WATCH = False
WEnd

    What else does it do?

    if you want to know the version that you have, take a pic of your DVD drive tray, get the power power rating and the manufacture date.

    Post the details here and i can tell you what you have, its a bitch to work out which one it is :(

    Apart from that, they play games, and you can watch Movies / Connect to NetFlix. Chat on MSN, and check your mail. not that exiting unless you play games.

    Oh and you can program your own games.

    Given that your function FindNewDrive() works, and finds the newly inserted drive, then all you need to do is:

    Replace:

    $New = FindNewDrive(); $New now has the Drive Letter of our New Drive, so USE IT!!!
$Label = DriveGetLabel($New)

$b = True
If $b = True Then FileInstall("C:\Location\test.bmp", ("$MyDrive\Destination\test.bmp")

    with

    $New = FindNewDrive(); $New now has the Drive Letter of our New Drive, so USE IT!!!
$Label = DriveGetLabel($New)
FileInstall("C:\Location\test.bmp", ($New & "\Destination\test.bmp")

    Though check ($New & "\Destination\test.bmp"), im not sure what AutoIT concatenation symbol is, but it looks VB, and if i remember correctly VB use & (could be +).

    the more secure ones, are normally the ones you pay for :(

    But really when it comes down to it, you can easily make your own, and its more how you configure your server, than the scripts that make it secure.

    So what are you looking for your site to do? Host files like rapidshare? just a drop box for mates? or a ratio download server?

    Media PC inside a NES case

    The project looks good, but i have one issue with it, and its the issue that i had when trying to set up a small media server. Resolution. RGB output to a 42" LCD looks kinda bland, SDIO from what Ive seen only can produce 640 x 480, which also isn't all that good looking, specially when we have 720p movies to play.

    The best bet i found was for 300$AU to buy an Xbox 360 Arcade. (i got the pro, but for Price Arcade works just as well). This allowed Xvid streaming, just no mkv's sadly.

    Though sadly this doesn't help the idea of modding into a Nintendo case, but is the cheapest / efficient solution that i concluded on last year.
