There was an email by Linus Torvalds that I read yesterday. He said that the SCO claims to some of the code is flatout wrong. He wrote the code himself in 1991. SCO under pressure released the source to the disputed code and after Linus looked at it he found bugs that he admits to putting in the code because he was a newbie and made newbie mistakes. I'll post the article later this evening.

I'll setup RSS later tonight after I get home. I had it on my todo list and when I got Longhorn I forgot about it.

There isn't a person in the security field that has one iota of respect for him. He spreds fud and does so in a manner that makes real security experts dislike him. His claims have been debunked so many times it's laughable. A person that visits his site, if they don't know anything about the internet or computers, will come away thinking that they can be hacked by just turning the box on.

In good time. There will be more and more added as we go along. I'm hoping that users will also contribute.

Yes it will be and welcome.

I know. I've been trying to figure a way to fix that. Will probably have to run a querry to change the cat id.

Yes it will happen. I want to get the site running smoothly before I format and install an OS on the dead server.

The first versions of P4s 2Ghz and up were built on the same chip as the Xeons. In theory hyperthreading should work on these models if you have the correct motherboard bios, one that allows you to enable them. I was involved in a 100 page thread at HardOCP when someone happened to se the same thing you did. It seems that Intel disabled HT somewhere on the chip. If this processor was just bought in the lasy 3 months then it is probably a P4E. If it is one then HT is enabled in them and the only thing you need is a motherboard that supports it. Is the processor an 800Mhz version or is 533Mhz? If it's an 800 it's HT enabled.

Along with that error you should get a path to a module that isn't loading. Once you fix that it will start. Unreal has a bug in it that causes to happen what happened. Bring up task manager and click on precesses tab. Look for wircd.exe and kill it. If you have services running kill it also. Then restart Unreal.

UnReal and Apache don't integrate together. Each is a stand alone server. What kind of error are you getting from Apache or is Unreal giving you the error? Check your event viewer. When Apache errors it writes an event to Windows event log. If UnReal is giving the error take a look in the directory where Unreal is installed. There will be an error log. Post the errors you're getting.

Yes. Go ahead and add it. Once the cms is up we can add them to the home page as well.

One thing it does is lockdown your net connection. It turns the firewall on. It also fixes the problems with DCOM once and for all. I've had it installed since last night on my devel box. No problems so far.

Great tip. Thanks for sharing. I always use a fine grade sand paper to remove the paste. It's always good to lap the heatsink a bit anyway before you reapply any thermal compound. I bet by using your method that the paste would come off much easier with less work.

One of the hardest things to do is troubleshoot a box that don't boot. I have a tool and software that I use that reads post codes as a box boots. It will tell me exactly where the stop error is. It sounds like the led does basicly the same thing. You should get different sets of numbers as post progresses. Before I had this I would pull out everything but one stick of good memory, the graphics card, better off with onboard vid here or pci vid, agp cards in older motherboards can be the main cause of boot problems. Since the cpu fan spins up we can rule out anything power related. If all your components are good then I would bet you have a dead cpu. It also could be the board. Check the etchings around the heatsink. Due you see any scratches anywhere? If you do then chances are the board is dead. If the processor is good, tested in another working board, then the board is the problem. Also make sure you have the jumpers set correctly.

Here is the way I do it. Take the motherboard out of the case and lay it on some foam padding. Take a small regular screwdriver and carefully pry back on the metal clip that hold the heatsink. There should be a small hole on the clip to insert the screwdriver into. Gently push down while prying way from the heatsink. Once the heatsink is lose then gently lift the heatsink off the processor. You might have to twist it a bit to break the seal made by heatsink compound. Twist gently. Once the heatsink is off there will be a lever on the side of the processor. Lift that out and up and the processor will pop out of the ziff socket. Now pull all the standoffs out of the case and put the new motherboard in to line up the hole for the standoffs. Insert the standoffs in the new holes, tighten with pair of plyers, one turn more than what you did by hand. Put the new motherboard on the foam and install the processor. One corner of the processor will be notched. Line that corner up with the arrow on the motherboard. Push it down just enough to line up the pins. Take the lever and push it down and in. Install the heatsink. Install the memory and then put the motherboard in the case and screw it into the standoffs. Make sure you connect the heatseak fan to the fan header. Install the graphics card and see if it fires up. If it does sht it down and install hd, cd and all other hardware. If you need more help post again.
