Hi all I have a laptop with Vista 32bit and a GeForce Go 7900 GS. I have connected a 22" monitor with native res 1440x1050 but I can only max out my res at 1440x900 via VGA out. Is it possible to force higher resolution? This graphic card is pretty good so I think it could support 1440x1050, is it Vista preventing me to use higher res? More...

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/22/technology/22chip.html A group led by a Princeton University computer security researcher has developed a simple method to steal encrypted information stored on computer hard disks.The technique, which could undermine security software protecting critical data on computers, is as easy as chilling a computer memory chip with a blast of frigid air from a can of dust remover. Encryption software is widely used by companies and government agencies, notably in portable computers that are especially susceptible to theft. The development, which was described on the group’s Web site Thursday, could also have implications for the protection of encrypted personal data from prosecutors. More...

http://science.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/02/22/0020211 No way Microsoft can compete with Google. They don't stand a chance. Sure they will try and someday maybe next best, but never the best. I think Microsoft should stop trying to catch with Google. More... View All Our Microsoft Related Feeds

Hey all. I have an interesting problem. I have a table that contains settings for my application. Now, instead of going the conventional route of having a data column per setting (which was just not practical, considering I have hundreds of available settings), I have them Arranged in rows. Also, in order to have a master list of what settings are available, I have a reference table in a SQL compact database (nice and easy to swap-out :-) To illustrate; SettingsMaster Table ID*** SettingName*** DataType * DefaultValue -------------------------------------------------------- 1***** SomeSetting*** Integer***** -1 2***** OtherSett******* Boolean***** True and so on. I then have the table where the settings Values are stored: tblSettings ID****** SettingID***** Value -------------------------------- 1******** 1****************** 7 2******** 2****************** False OK. Still with me? Good. I have written a GetSetting(SettingName as string) and a matching SetSetting. What I would like to do, is be able to DataBind to my 'Settings System' - which would have been easire if I had used Column-Per-Setting, but I hope I can still do it with my Row-Per-Setting I understand I would probably have to create a new class, and I have a feeling I'll need to implement an interface, but I have NO IDEA where to go from here. I hope you guys can help :-) More... View All Our Microsoft Related Feeds

I was thinking about making a res-changer tool since the only ways to change the eee PC resolution using the virtual scaling of the intel drivers are two: an hacked intel driver that breaks standby and a tool that was reported as a trojan and isn't automated I'm considering making a tool that changes resolution with an hotkey, restores the resolution before standby/hibernation avoiding the standby bug, resets the resolution after resume and saves the actual resolution before shutdown and restores it at the next boot anybody interested?

Don't get your hopes up, this isn't Vista bashing. I like Vista and it's a nice consumer OS but... Just saw this fun "Warning" in event logs : "TCP/IP has reached the security limit imposed on the number of concurrent TCP connect attempts." , might been in XP as well. I don't know since I used windows server 2003. Vista is a joke as a developer OS and I don't blame developers not wanting to use it. I know a lot of those. Good thing I'll be moving to windows server 2008 as my desktop OS in a month or so as soon as it's out. More... View All Our Microsoft Related Feeds
