srsly i fucked my glasses by cleaning it with handkerchiefs and toilet paper. way too rough, believe it or not. just get some microfibre cloth, it costs next to nothing
i mean you can use whatever for your keyboard and other peripherals but don't just use anything on screens.
>>51487652
how does that work though? i thought windows toolkit injects something directly into the BIOS that tells it not to mind the missing licence. or is it just something at a low-level but non-bios part of the system
What software can I use on GNU/Linux to create a multiboot disc that includes Windows and a Linux distro? Does SARDU does the job?
How do you stop html5 videos from loading and playing automatically? I'm fucking sick of this shit. Do these people not have any respect for those on quotas?
I preferred when everything was flash because you could easily block flash. You could also choose to not install it in the first place.
How do I install a GRUB on my boot partition without fucking up my Win 7 ?
I already have a partition with Linux on it but I can't access it.
>>51487676
you cant just disable /choose not to load html5 lmao
but yes you can set auto play off dependding on your browser. its in about:config for ff.
If your quotas that low perhaps you shouldnt be browsing the internet at all

I accidentally purchased cable that make winows think that my monitor is "Generic Non-PnP Monitor". Windows can't my native resolution and uses 1024x768. I created custom resolution, so this issue is fixed. But now i have other one.
Scince monitor is Generic Non-PnP Monitor then windows shows a lot of resolutions that my monitor doesn't support. Many games chose automatically at the start biggest one, and i'm ending up with black screen and "out of range" on my monitor.
Is there anyway to HIDE resolutions i don't want to use? I can only delete custom resolutions in videocard control panel. Can't do shit about normal ones.
>>51487689
You can try using one of those grub manager stuff while using your distro live disc/usb. Make sure it lists Windows.
>>51487749
Shit sorry for a lot of typos, i'm really tired right now.
>>51487743
hardware shops then? lmaoo if it gets smashed you can refund it. places like ple.com.au have physical stores. If your in america idk just google "pc shops (z location)
>>51487749
>that make winows think that my monitor is "Generic Non-PnP Monitor"
it is a non-pnp monitor, you should have got a pnp monitor.
I dont think the chord is the issue
I want to build a future-proof PC that will last for several years. Main uses are FPS gaymen, movies and work.
Question now is, should I build i5 Skylake or i5-4690K? 1150 doesn't support PCIe 3.0 for M.2 SSDs in case I ever bought one, so that kinda sucks.
>>51487754
Does it mean I have to install the distro again ?
>>51487240
Is geit better than sublime text or atom?
>>51487749
this problem can occur if you use a VGA cable that lacks the pins used for DDC/power (9/12/15), which is how graphics cards read the EDID chip in "modern" VGA monitors, which contains the list of valid modes for that monitor
>>51487792
>I dont think the chord is the issue
I'm sure that's 100% cord's fault. It has one less pin than previous, normal one
>>51487823
Yep, that's exactly what i have.
>>51487823
oh yea, the other reason is that the monitor is really old and doesn't have an EDID chip at all (in which case it really is a "non-pnp" monitor)
most late 90's+ monitors have one
I want to have an online shop, which is the best website to create one with?
Open Office
Libre Office
Which do I get when I move to a Linux / Win 10 dualboot clean install?
>>51487834
i'd say just get a better cable, one with all 15 pins/wires, they're cheap and and it's probably not worth the effort, especially in windows (i personally find it much easier to make a custom modeline set in linux)
How to change voltage on CPU? No such otions in BIOS, its seams
>>51487843
libreoffice
>>51487801
No, you just have to run it on live mode.
Just create a bootable stick from any modern distro, and run on live mode. You just have to install Grub Customizer on persistent storage and run it. No need to install the OS itself again.
>>51487858

I've been using a VPN for a while and have been connecting/disconnecting whenever I want to torrent/play online games but I want a more permanent solution that will allow me to not use the VPN for certain applications (i.e Steam) and if possible not use it for certain sites because the big jew prevents posting from a VPN.
Is there some sort of guide on how to force an application to not use the VPN service? I'm thinking there might be a way to do it using IP and routing tables.
Currently using AirVPN and Windows 8.1.

Why won't my r9 280x run 3 monitors?
This is from the manufacturers website when I bought it. I can no longer find it on their site.
supports up to 3 display monitor(s) without DisplayPort
5 x Maximum Display Monitor(s) support
To support 3rd monitor without DisplayPort cable connected, 2 of the 3 monitors should be the same model with DVI ports connected. The driver version should be v13.12 or above
Currently have 2 dell u2412m's connected via dvi. I should be able to add a third without displayport.
And their fucking support wont get back to me

if using wifi connect your router via lan (cable) instead to get your drivers
>>51488386
I tried that but it didn't work I guess I don't even have ethernet drivers
I recently rooted my phone, and it seems like screen on time has decreased (although standby time has improved). Other than installing a weird kernel/custom rom, what are good ways to improve battery life? I've already uninstalled some bloatware. Phone is Samsung G900T on 5.1.1 using 3.4.0 TrapKernel and stock rom.
>>51488550
I also have Greenify installed.
>>51488481
i sorta doubt that. ethernet almost always works.
try connecting to the router itself (find out its IP and connect via lan and your browser) to see if the lan connection is working. idk what router you have but for D-link and netgear it's "192.168.0.1"
if the connection is working, the internet connection is fucked. if it's not working, well, i don't even know. ethernet has always worked out of the box for me, even with fresh installs. no modern system comes without ethernet drivers
>>51488481
get Linux and install drivers for Windows on a pendrive
Recently got my first android phone. Its a samsung s5 and I was wondering if its safe to root? I downloaded a app cleaner and it shows i only have 30 to 50% free ram even if I kill all processes.

Could it be viable to have my steam games on a home server? Like have the files on there but played from whatever computer that accesses them? I'm assuming loading times would be pretty slow but what if the hard drives were in raid or I used a ssd for the games. What kind of connection would I need to fully utilise sees in a home server to keep loading times low?
My AMD Radeon HD 7800 GPU is 55 Celsius on desktop and while gaming a bit over 80 Celsius.
I am concerned even tough it's been like this for over three years now. I've heard AMD GPUs can take more heat than Nvidia but still. Should I increase the fan speed by changing the profile with Afterburner (tm) or something?
I just found my missing SSD with some memory left. I know that having the OS installed on it makes things run considerably faster, so I'm gonna try to transfer the OS from my HDD.

So I've been wanting to download BF2: Project Reality for a long time. But I have no idea how to use qBittorrent, which the site recommends I use to download the file. When I press this button (download from the German flag) it gives me an option to either open the file or save it. Saving it goes directly to in-browser download which is obviously not what to do.
I know, I'm retarded and beyond help. But how do I do this?

Atom is my goto, but Sublime is used by more industry professionals. Maybe that's because it has been around longer? I just like Atom because of its obvious pros; syncing with github, best package system I've ever used for an editor, actually easily hackable if you are into that.

There's some tweaks out there that supposedly improve performance a lot in that game without affecting the quality too much. Have you tried downloading the latest beta drivers from AMD too? They are supposed to be optimized for Fallout 4.
I'm not even sure if Fallout 4 supports Crossfire, you would have to see if the latest beta drivers do in their patch notes.

I'm not sure what kcp is but most people use mplayer or its more lively fork, mpv.

Anyone have another opinion?
>>51493032
Just use VLC. There's 2 complaints I hear about VLC here.
>washed out color -- people claiming this are either memeing or need to set their GPU driver to use correct PC color output range rather than old NTSC TV color output range
>font rendering of subtitles is ever so slightly less nice when you examine it -- so long as it's very easily legible, if you find yourself focusing on font details rather than the anime itself, you probably need to find a better anime
Apart from that, it plays, streams, saves, etc. just about everything you can throw at it.
>>51492955
Depends on the games. Try it. Worst that happens, you'll be playing on lower settings for a little bit.
I would definitely go this route and save up for a really good GPU. Better to play on lower settings of 720p for a couple months and get a better GPU later, than to get a lesser GPU now and be stuck with it long term.
What's the cli program everyone use to p

>>51494332
moc?

mpd?
>>51494346
>>51494355
Thx. Both look great. What are the differences tough?
>>51487676
NoScript might be something to look into for sites that autoplay things. Not sure if this works for HTML5, but it has click to play for flash I think
>>51487689
You could try chrooting into your linux partition and installing grub from there
>>51488939
You could make a samba share or something on your server and mount it in Windows. But the real overhead would come from your lan, not a big deal if you have a nice router with gigabit lan
>>51494400
Try both and see which you like better. Also, as CLI programs they'll have shortcut keys and command line switches to do things that might not be obvious from what's displayed, so RTFM.
I flashed my phone because tmobile's software bricked it, the flashed rom makes the phone work fine, except it doesn't recognize the sim card.
Any way to fix this?
>>51487673
install a boot loader on the disc.
>>51489676
buy a long cable
>>51487673
For a CD/DVD with WinPE/BartPE and some live Linux, I would use isolinux as the bootloader. Hirens Boot CD does something like this. You're not going to get a non-PE Windows to boot from a CD, at least without some weird copy-on-write or copy-all-to-RAMdisk setup.
>>51489676
Buy one of those power-line adaptor
>>51489676
Ethernet is the best, but if you can't run a wire and can't move it someplace you can run a wire, get a second router that has a wifi repeater mode. In this mode, all you need is an electric outlet and someplace to set it roughly halfway between the router and PC. You put it in repeater mode and connect it to your wifi. That's it -- it won't create a new AP, it'll just rebroadcast the signal from your main router. A laptop will even switch between them automatically without any disruption in connections if you move around the house.
Be sure you get a router that supports wifi repeater mode with the security type you're using. I've seen some ASUS ones that can only do it on WEP or open, no WPA2. Or something that can be flashed to DD-WRT since that has a working repeater mode.

is

a good monitor for the price?
>>51496042
It looks like a good price. But I don't see any mention of VESA mount compatibility, so that could foil your plans.
>>51496116
I just don't know what to do anymore. All of the good monitors with pivot stands are like $170+ and I just don't want to spend that much and everything has some catch that ruins it. I just want something that I can put in portrait mode and read PDFs at university with.

I just have one question. Blues or browns?
I play some games but mostly just type and code
>>51496134
It's not as pretty and clean as a VESA mount on the monitor, but you can almost certainly work something out if you're clever. If the back of the monitor is reasonably sturdy and flat in the middle, you can probably take it off, drill holes where VESA mount holes belong, put a metal plate on the inside back for sturdiness and put bolts through that. Or remove the monitor's stand, bolt some wood onto the VESA stand, and rig something with some rubber-covered metal hooks like they use to hold some display items down in stores.
>>51496240
or you could literally just save your lunch money for another week and buy >>51496231 instead of nigger rigging something like a vesa mount
>>51496218
Sounds reasonable. I wouldn't go ECC either. Just get decent quality RAM and memtest the shit out of it. Bit errors are rare enough that it shouldn't cause issues. Turn up the DRAM refresh frequency a bit in BIOS if you're paranoid and want to sacrifice some performance for less chance of bit errors.
Also do you have ECC RAM in the machines that are going to connect to it for storage? If not, ECC in that one is near pointless.
>>51496256
From the sound of it, the picture quality isn't as good.
>>51496235
Blue switches are the best for typing, but typically too hard for gaming. Brown are a good compromise, with also the advantage of being the least noisy and easier to adapt from when coming from membrane keyboards.

Open Task Manager and Resource Monitor. See what goes high when it's being super slow. My suspicion is hard disk. If the drive queue length is high and read speed is low, you have either a dying drive or a lot of fragmentation.
>>51497278
>1. Is there any software or method that can scan a drive for images?
Windows 7/8/10: Browse to the root of the drive and put something like "*.jpg OR *.png" in the search box in the top right
>2. What's the best way to easily make an ftp server now that filezilla is a huge piece of shit?
Not sure what's best or easiest, but "Turn Windows features on or off" has "FTP Server" under "Internet Information Services", and there are any number of free 3rd party ones out there.
>>51497405
There's no IO or CPU usage going on when the system's sitting there.
>>51497278

First year Java fag here.
Working on a rock paper scissors game for my class, but with one problem.
All of my JOptionPanes return a 1, 0, or null depending on what button is pressed. Except for this one:int stillPlay = JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null, "Player: " + playerChoiceTemp + "\nComputer: " + computerChooseFull(computerChoice) + "\n\n" + whoWins(playerChoice, computerChoice) + "\n\nWould you like to play again?", "Rock Paper Scissors - Winner", JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
It always returns a 0 no matter what option is pressed. Any anons know why? Can provide the entire source if needed.

Can your computer take 2133 MHz RAM? If so, get that. Also look at the CL values for both at the highest speed rating your mobo supports. Lower CL is better.

>>51499108
I wouldn't call that exactly budget, but it should do what you want.
>>51499210
ROMs do affect game performance -- the more cruft you have running in the background, the slower things will be. Kernel, cpufreq governors, scheduler, and driver versions have an effect too. I don't know about the S5 in particular since I don't have one.
>>51499227
That sounds like more than enough, given that a raspi will run off a 1A power supply, and a 2.5" HDD works fine with the USB bus-powered adapter cable I have (so ~500 mA). Even 2-5A sounds like it should be enough.

What stops someone from burning a Xbox or Playstation disk?
I understand they are encrypted, but if you just read all the bits and write all the bits verbatim with the right laser should not the burned disk "fake" disk have the exact same data as the original? How would the hardware know the difference when it reads the disk? Even if there was some encryption key, it should have been copied as well.

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/NZRfwP
Seriously, though, how did I do? I'm basing off my build from lurking some of the mITX threads that are usually posted here. Ideally, would've wanted to get the NCase M1, but is it worth waiting until January to receive it when Newegg's having these crazy sales? I'm jumping the gun here with Black Friday and I'm not even sure how practical this build is going to be when I begin assembling her.
There's no debate on getting anything that isn't a mITX board. I just don't have the space in my apartment for it.
So yeah, this is mainly going to be my machine to fuck around with openGL/oculus and muh gaymen.

My Intel i5 2500k CPU usually sits around 60-75ºc when it is doing something like playing vidya or rendering a video, but recently I now see it going around the 80-90º range whenever the computer is being used for more than just browsing the internet. I'm not doing in particular right and it still seems to sit around a fairly high temperature.
There's been no change of hardware, no notable software has been installed recently other than STALKER so I doubt I've collected more AIDS for Win7, the environment the computer sits in hasn't really changed, and no fans are failing as far as I can tell. It all seems rather sudden.
The only thing I haven't checked is the stock heatsink I use for it. What are some possible causes so I can narrow down the problem? I just don't want to kill the CPU by just casually playing something.
