I am a little late to this thread however when I installed Ubuntu as a dual boot system, I put it on a separate hard drive. The advantage of this for me is that if I have a problem with either XP or...

Thanks Steve for getting back to me.
I expect to send only about 1-2 GB on this drive back and forth if that much.
The card I had bought did have an eSata port and supported SATA I only. While...

I was given a Fantom 1TB external drive as a present which I can easily use with USB 2.0. The drive also allows connection with SATA so I decided to purchase an addon card from NewEgg.
The card...

I ran this program for a number of days. What it does is monitor the traffic that comes from your computer in which it is similar to a good firewall. How it differs though is that while a firewall...

KatMac,
As you have read here, there are many places you can go for a custom built machine. Micro Center and Best Buy may be for you as I am sure that they have a warranty on their product and if...

Picasa from Google does a great job of cutting down the size of the photo so that it can be e-mailed. It is very simple to do especially if you have a Gmail account.
If the photos you want to...

I came across BotHunter which is supposed to monitor your network and desktop for Botnets. As most antivirus and security software has problems detecting botnets I was thinking that this might be a...

As has been mentioned above, DO NOT PARTITION OR FORMAT as you will loose whatever is on your hard drive.
Another thing you can try is taking hard drive to a computer that is running Linux or even...

A RAID 1 setup will automatically copy the data on one drive to the other but I would not stop there. I would also back up to an external hard drive which should then be kept at a different location...

I set everything up and it works great. I had to use FreeOTFE as it will open up encrypted partitions unlike FreeOTFE Explorer (though this option is coming according to their website). Because of...

Well I ran UBCD5 and ran a full diagnostic on the hard drive and on the memory. All came back normal.
I was able to wipe the drive clean and then started to install XP but the CD would not boot...

As I stated above, one of the problems is getting a CD to boot. If I can not get a CD that has MemTest on it to boot then I can not test the RAM.
I will download a fresh copy of UBCD5 and see if...

The only thing I have been able to boot has been Knoppix which runs as it is...
