RideTheFire Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 Re: «<< 12Oz Computer Tech Support >>> or its just dd.. not sure. heres an excerpt. Note: If you are installing this in a PC and have multiple drives, you dont need to use an external drive or linux distro. Simply dd the image in the same manner to any physical drive in your pc, and when its done boot to that drive and it should work. For windows users, there is a port of dd for windows you can use here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainter Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 Re: «<< 12Oz Computer Tech Support >>> About dd.exe DD.EXE is used to create an image file from a floppy bootdisk. Do not confuse it with the unix "dd" command it is not quite the same. Example: dd a: <filename>.img This will create an image file from your bootdisk in drive A:. You could also use winimage (not freeware) for this, but remember to save your floppy image as .IMA (not compressed) file.

Mainter Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 Re: «<< 12Oz Computer Tech Support >>> yeah i would not recommend using dd.exe if you want to really do it correct you have to format the computer and setup 2 partitions using dd is not very safe its old and with new machines you have about a 55/ 45 chance of it crashing and losing all your data thats why they say use norton ghost to make an image its just a pain in the ass BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well there is, and it’s called Taskswitch, a free little add-on from Microsoft; in addition to the normal icon view it also generates a preview or thumbnail of the applications you are switching between. It’s part of the Powertoys suite (which includes the most excellent Tweak UI). Just click on the download link, accept the defaults and it’s ready to run.

Mainter Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 Re: «<< 12Oz Computer Tech Support >>> im bored so here read this have fun kids do it in school and become famous Soda Machine Hack How To Hack A Soda Machine Most modern soda machines have little computers in them. The tiny RED LCD usually displays the data. The computer can be controlled by using certain buttons on the soda machine in different combinations. This can be used to check the temperature, see the amount of money (load and dump), and dump certain sodas. Will usually only work on newer machines that look like the one on the right. They need to have an LCD and also need to have some type of message on it “ICE COLD SODAS” This tells you it is running something. 1) Accessing the Menu: Press the buttons [4][2][3][1] one after another. It will be left to right in some machines and up and down in some so try both methods. Once you press these keys you will be in the “debug menu.” It should display ERROR or something similar. 2) Once you are in, button [1] becomes the back/exit type of command. Button [2] becomes scroll up. Button [3] becomes scroll down. And Button [4] becomes select/enter. You can now scroll through the features. 3) As you scroll through the menus you will see items such as SALE, CASH, VER, ERROR, and RTN. 4) What each item means: Cash- displays the amount of money in the machine. You will also be able to find more info on what was purchased how much for each item and are arranged by slot #s. SALE- shows how many drinks have been sold and how many from each slot. (slots are in same order as buttons so if button 1 is coke then slot 1 is coke as well.) VER- the machine firmware version. (pointless) ERROR- COLJ (Column Jam), VEnd (Vend Mechanism), Door (Door Switch), Sels (Selection Switch), CHAR (Changer Errors), Acce (Acceptor Errors), Sts (Space 2 Sales), and bVal (Vill Validators). (can’t do anything w/ this either, except clear the errors!) RTN- Returns back to normal menus, you can also do this by pressing on the coin return button or the back button. Also by holding a coin at the tip of the coin slot it will display the current temperature of the inside of the soda machine. 5) There above are the options that are usually enabled, but most other options are usually disabled if the owner (or maintenance dude) is smart. But if they happen to be enabled here they are: CPO- Coin payment mode, which will dump coins out of the machine. You will be able to specify the type (dime, nickel, ect.) and the amount. tvFL- tube fill mode, which lets you fill the machine w/ coins. (retarded huh) PASS- allows you to change the default password from 4231 to something else. PrlC- change the price of a drink! (1 cent!) StOS change what each button links to (so if some1 presses coke you can make it go 2 sprite.) COn- are machine configuration settings too much to tell just experiment. TIME- Set TIME. LANG- change language. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainter Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 Re: «<< 12Oz Computer Tech Support >>> Hacking PSP v2.60 HomeBrew - Sunday, February 5, 2006 PSP 3D The PSP can finally run homebrew games and applications on firmware 2.60. It previously only worked on 1.50 units and on PSPs that were downgraded from 2.00 to 1.50. There was minimal support on 2.00+, but with this tutorial most homebew applications should function. We should expect to see a new update very soon from Sony, possibly 2.70 or a minor “security” update to v2.60. If a new update is released, obviously do not update for a while untill information about what exactly it does is available. The homebrew on 2.60 PSPs will be able to run Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Atari Lynx, and many other applications.To run homebrew applications: * PSP with v2.60 installed * Memory Card with enough space * Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories * USB Cable or MS Pro Duo Reader To install homebrew applications: * Download “homebrew260.zip” and extract content * Connect and open media storage device * Copy contents of GAME & paste them in X:\PSP\GAME\ * Copy folder “ULUS10041S5″ and paste in X:\PSP\SAVEDATA\ * Place all the homebrew application files in GAME * Start GTA & load profile 5 to get to the homebrew menu * To quit the homebrew menu just hit the “start” button Links: US PlayStation | GTA: LCS | PSP Updates Related: PSP 2.60 Info | DownGrade 2.0 to 1.5 Note: At the moment standard homebrew applications can only be run on PSPs with either 1.50 or 2.60. (nothing in between). If you have 2.60 only way to run these apps is with the retail edition of GTA. (not a UMD rip) Also downgrading PSPs can only be downgraded from 2.00 to 1.50. (no other combos will work!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(not that I'm a criminal, but I like my privacy, lol) to my understanding, when u install something, save something or whatever onto a harddive, it physically writes it onto it. now, when u delete it, it overwrites or something and washes it away. but the marks it made initially are still there- faintly. so they can pretty much go in and see what was on there before when looking at different layers of the harddrive. or im just completely making this up, and i am of no use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
