there wouldn't necessarily be burn or scorch marks. it would smell, though. i fried a few things over the years. it stinks. sometimes burns. sometimes not.

 

seffiks could be right, it could be done for, but most mobo's have failsafes so they won't short. atleast, the past several i've bought have.

 

look over those schematics. you know what i was speaking of about the labels on the black plastic over the small wires? the wires are coded pos/neg too. damn, i wish i could just drive to your casa and show you. and then hit your wifey up for a free tux tat.

dang, snackandcrap. too bad you don't live near seffiks or i.

 

 

oh yeah...

 

ATTN SEFFIKS:

 

don't get too far ahead of sneakandcreep when you're telling him about this stuff.

his mobo may not be frieded.

 

 

 

yeah thats why i said guess

 

cause i am not that sure myself

 

but the facts are if you apply power to the board with switched wires usually causes a component to fry on the board

RealVNC not working with Vista

In reply to: VNC connection reset by Peer 10054 by johnkbraun

 

Hi Guys,

 

I have managed to get RealVNC working with Vista 32 bit. The way to do it is to:

 

Start RealVNC installation

Click Next

Accept Terms and Agreements and click Next

Click Next on Destination for Installation

Click Next on Select Components

Click Next on Select Start Menu Folder

Untick Register and configure VNC Server for Service-mode

Untick Start the VNC Server in Service-mode

Click Next

Click Install

Click Next once install is complete

Click Finish

Click on Start > Programs > RealVNC > VNC Server 4 (User-mode) > Run VNC Server

 

You will then notice the VNC server icon will appear next to your clock in the system tray and it will state waiting for connections.

 

Thats it, all done. Good Luck.

well congrats something was not connected

 

 

i dont know....but no congrats just yet.

 

 

another question...

 

so the computer boots up fine, lalalla. I hoop up the rest of the stuff and hook up the monitor to do a test...boots up. I get to the logon screen I hit the power button to power down and reseat the cd drive because its not opening right. I reseat and go to power on the sysetem to test the drive.............nothing happens.

 

 

What the hell I didnt change anything? Why doesnt it want to power up? Do I have a bad power supply???

Anyone know how I can get my Zune to operate on OSX?

 

I switched over to mac from pc a few months ago and I'm still trying to get used to this shit. Something that is annoying as fuck is that a lot of programs don't have backgrounds in OSX, like I can see everything behind the open prog. That shit is so distracting especially in Adobe progs. Anyone know if its possible to change that?
