A friend of mine just got a new laptop, and had no use for the old, so she gave it to me. (after running DBAN of course). So I decide I want to hook it up to my xbox 360 and get full use of that 'media center' all of the cool kids seem to enjoy. I grab an XP disk and begin to install when I notice that the pixles for the bottom 1/3 of the screen are non existant! Having installed windows enough times, this dident pose to much of a problem, and the way I figure it once its set up... its going to be use headless anyway. BUT here comes the problem. The install finishes windows boots up and the screen goes black... well the back-light or whatever goes out, so you can kind of see if you look really close, but not really. So, I reboot with the same results.... I cannot seem to install an ftp or anything fast enough before the screen goes out. Also, since the previous OS was wiped there are no drivers installed on it, which means, even if I could install an ftp or a RAT it still wouldent be connected :( I tried hooking it up to a monitor, and it sends a signal, but its black. Can anyone help me with a solution on how to get this box on the internet and get some remote tools installed! P.S- Anyone think of a better use for an old laptop? (512mb RAM- 30gb HD, P4)

it doesnt work on all computers but you could just use: tskill *

Wow, thanks guys. Great thread. 8)

To Mods: Maybe this should go in 'news', if it does move it. :) I dont think its has been shown here yet, but a guy named Hamachiya2 discoverd a flaw in IE 6 that will crash it. Just one line of HTML code, <style>*{position:relative}</style><table><input></table> lolz. From all accounts it renders fine in Opera, firefox, and IE 7 If you wish to try it out using IE 6 click below: http://immike.net/scripts/ie_crash.html source: http://immike.net/blog/2007/08/06/single-l...l-crashes-ie-6/

AffinityOS iz 4 n00bz. the best hak for affinityOS is to try and play solitaire on it. It gets scared and then slowly implodes itself into an alt universe where affinityOS is kewl.

you could trick people into signing up with 'your' hosting service and just sign them up with another paid service for more $$. Like bluehost, or dreamhost. :-P

I think I have it on my home compy. If you cant wait 'till monday I will upload it to my server and repost here. :-P

google: file packer you should find a few free things.

So, my uncle paid a friend of his to archive a bunch of music onto his new Ipod (30gb). The kid did as asked, but when my uncle went to add a few songs from his xp machine he, he was unable to. Apparently the kid formatted the Ipod for a mac and now my uncle cannot add/modify/del ect. anything from the Ipod. He is strictly a windows user. So now we have a 30gb Ipod completely full of obscure indie music that has no backup. I know there is a way to get the music off of that Ipod before formatting it on a windows machine, but for the life of me I cannot find out how, do you know? thanks, anyedie

lol, I was doing these tests last semester. I looked at the code, just because I was curious and found it pretty useless if you were looking for answers. I had a little trouble with the tricky questions, but studying usually fixes those problems. Although in my psycology of human development class there was a similar style of quizzes. I looked for a few days for a way to subvert the quizzes, and found, like most, a very simple one. I wouldent try anything with the freaking cisco site, but what I did was fun.

is this some kind of werid spam whos target I havent figured out yet?

i've only seen 2/5 of your posts, but we really dont need your kind here if you want to continue posting annoying skiddie script please do it somewhere else. It seems like you actually could make a few somewhat knowledgeable posts- do it.

nice, real job FTW! :-P

1st: I like batch files! 2nd: Batch scripting things like that is like remembering a phone #, you don't even have to know what your doing to write that, google abit a learn if you really want to.

yea, my first dive into linux was fedora core also, but I quickly moved on to bigger and better things, like Mandriva linux! Try it!

w00t! :excited:

Wow, I dident even know something like this was out there. Very kewl :) ::will spend the next several hours in a dark room customizing shells, thanks for taking hours from my life, lol::

stupid scene kids! Podcasting, Vidcasting, BinSS, its all just another fad. I take no stock in any of it, besides, next year we'll all just be back to carrier pigeon's anyway.

Yea, at first I was really confused like, 'w[here] tf did my purepwnage story line go!' but I think that last 60 seconds was perfect. I <3 that ep. alot!

Did anyone check where that IP was at? just curious. I think it was Metatron that once offerd his box that was traced to the DOD or FBI or something... is 'idareyou' trying to pull the same kind of thing? lawl.

Neat! I will soon be doing the same type of install. Cant wait to try it out. :) hum... what else could I do?... ::ponders it::

Lawl

Take your time, keep up the good work guys!

my 2 cents: As long as they are used safely, I think guns can be fun! I have enjoyed many days of target shooting.

agreed, I see nothing wrong with hackling, especially since its (from where I stand) never been a insult to anyone. I just thought it was a name for community members, and newcomers alike. Maybe im wrong, but does this seem to be a little to PCish for anyone?
