There's no guarantee whatever that a 32-bit program will run on a 64-bit operating system. Many/most will do, but I suspect your GPO isn't one of them, and a newer version might be necessary. Have...

You can certainly run what is called a "live CD" of Linux from a USB Flash Drive.

I personally would download the Linux Mint 15 Cinnamon-desktop 32-bit ISO file, which provides an interface very...

I've occasionally used Freeeject from a desktop icon, but not on Windows 8.

That would be extremely surprising!
Have you tried pressing F12 or F8 every few seconds when booting, to come up with a "From which device do you want to boot?" screen?

It seems to me that you haven't selected the same registry key as in the article pointed to by RetiredGeek...

No, DIR does not give seconds in the File Modified time which it produces on screen, only hh:mm format (here in the UK). As far as I remember (which isn't far!), this hasn't been changed since the...

No!

Thank you - it was intended to be amusing, but was absolutely no help at all to the OP...

This is one of the cases where the disk management tool misleads, since the sizes of the partitions are "not to scale".

If you drew it to scale, the 101 MB partition wouldn't be much thicker than...

STOP Error 0x000000F7: DRIVER_OVERRAN_STACK_BUFFER
STOP error 0xF7 means that a driver has overrun a stack-based buffer. STOP code 0x000000F7 may also display "DRIVER_OVERRAN_STACK_BUFFER" on the...

It would be easier in the short term if you gave the STOP code and the small amount of text found at the top left of the Blue Screen. Are they all the same?

Example:
STOP: 0x0000007a...

I find the simplest way to display the 24-hour clock in times is to live in a country/locale where this time format is the default for Windows computer displays!

Well done for your persistence!

At work, our anti-spam program has, over the last month or two, trapped a whole bunch of spam emails from yahoo.com, yahoo.co.uk and btinternet.com "hijacked" email addresses.

Yes, I did try it, but it wasn't complete enough for my needs, I'm afraid. Then Textreme came along, and I have been experimenting with it ever since, and the author. Jim Ollerhead, has very kindly...

Thanks, Jerry - so much for a logical name! (Does your WOL function work?!)

Hmmm. PCIe sounds remarkably like an add-in card, to me...

You could download a bunch of assistants to replace Clippy. I rather liked the small yellow dog. The bouncing ball, Einstein, a wizard, a dolphin, and so on were no great improvement on Clippy, if...

I hope you can get somewhere with Asus. What NIC manufacturer and model does Device Manager say it is?

I would say yes to your question.

Is it an "on motherboard" NIC? If the NIC is a card it will probably need a WOL jumper to the corresponding motherboard pins - assuming the motherboard...

I wasn't suggesting a problem with the WOL software - it's not much more complex than PING, of course! But you could compare the WOL packets as generated on both machines, to see if there's an...

Indeed it is, but you've raised it. I've seen many SSIDs with spaces in. In fact my one is called Go Away! ...

When I had a major WOL setup problem on a server, sending to PCs, I ran WireShark and inspected the WOL packets, and found that WOLcmd was sending the WOL packets on the '1' subnet instead of the '0'...

Roy, you might like to look at a (hardware-orientated) alternative to SIW, called HWiNFO.

If the two locations are on the same electrical meter circuit, you could try using two "HomePlugs" (US - PowerLine), to transfer the ethernet over the power cable.

You use a patch cable to connect...
