My HDD has 2 partitions, C for windows and software, and D for files like movies, music etc
If I reinstall windows on C, will I lose my files from D or will D remain untouched?
Javascript question... So here's an Object:
{code]var post = {
board: "/g/",
user: "anon",
solved: false
}[/code]
I am writing a routine to print its structure like this:post.board
post.user
post.solved
Here it is, defined then called:function showStructure(obj){
var a;
for (a in obj){
console.log(obj +'.'+ a);
}
}
showStructure(post);
And the output:[object Object].board
[object Object].user
[object Object].solved
How can I get the variable name of the object rather than a handle?

I expect you can reinstall your OS on drive C without touching drive D, but we never know. And a backup is always a good idea.

So I bought an SSD, and Windows 10 would not detect it, even though BIOs did.
I even went ahead and installed Windows 10 on that SSD, but still my original drive would not detect it. It isn't in Device Manager, isn't in Disk Management. The SSD is obviously not faulty so..
What gives? Even when I boot from my SSD, it would not recognize my first hard drive.

I'm going to start a small ISP, does anyone have resources so I can learn about how it's done?
I know the basics of how everything works but nothing really about networking.
I know I have to buy bandwidth from someone like level3, get some routing equipment and lay cable.
But after that, I have no idea.
I'm only going to start out with 30 or so customers outside the city, there is /no/ internet here. I have to pay tons of money for my local ISP to lay cables anyway, why wouldn't I do it myself and make money?
Going to eventually start a thread but I want to do more research first.
Reading the archives and googling right now. Anything will help, thanks.
>>55438090
IIRC Chrome stores its cookies in a .sqlite file. Locate it and keep a copy to overwrite the one in your next install. And if that fails, you'll have to enter them manually one-by-one, so don't forget to copy them from the account manager or whatever in Chrome.
>>55438123
I don't know, how do I check?
Also, when I first installed the SSD, it wouldn't show up at all in Windows, but it did in the bios. To verify that it was working, I went away and installed windows on it from a thumbdrive and it worked, everything boot up and stuff.
Problem is, when booting up Windows from either of the drives, none of them would recognize the other.

>>55438595
Daz Loader, disables windows activation process and makes windows think you payed

>>55438595
>>55438357
Macrium reflect, clone disk. Then change your bios boot order to SSD first. Unplug the HDD and make sure windows boots ok, then you can format the HDD. Finally, go to system properties, windows experience index, Re-run assessment to let windows know it's on an ssd now so it can change it's settings
>>55438617
So I use the iso file to install windows
Then at what point do I use the windows loader?
Won't windows ask me for an activation code before I can run any software?
Can it be right that there is no way to adjust the camera settings of an iPad?

>>55438639
You can skip that, windows will show as non-genuine, that's when you use the loader.
>>55438594
There ain't one, it's all slim connectors directly in mobo or tapes. Get your ass to a store.
>>55438554
I think you might be confused. If you are putting windows on an ssd, there are 2 ways you can do it. #1 you clone, or copy the exact current contents of your hdd to your ssd. From the programs perspective nothing has changed. #2 you reinstall windows and programs from scratch on your ssd, and choose witch programs to install to your HDD and witch ones to install SSD
>>55438649
ok thanks
>>55438662
So I got to reinstall all my programs? Because what happened is, I installed Windows 10 on my SSD, boot up with it, and when I tried to open Steam, it couldn't open, gave me some error that it wasn't installed correctly. Steam was located in some other drive, not C at that point.
Do I have to reinstall everything on the HDD again?
What are the advantages of server hardware?
If I want to build a simple machine for media storage and possibly steam streaming, can I just go with regular desktop stuff?

You don't need loader. You can use the key on the side of your pc to reactivate windows once it's installed, so you will have your legit license
>>55438718
Not if the OS he installs isn't the same version.
>>55438677
You want to make sure you are actually using the SSD. Windows gets confused when it exists on more than one drive. Unplug the HDD, and see if the system runs ok
>>55438718
>>55438727
ok thanks guys
I'll download the iso for my current version, use my legit code, then in the future I might upgrade and use windows loader

I'm using the SSD, I set to boot using the SSD. Anyway, now the SSD is blank and reformatted, how do I go about making it as a OS drive, while making sure all of my programs back in my HDD works the same as before?
>>55438717
It has to do with the way Nvidia preps their environments. More of it is done onboard without asking the CPU for help. But for DX12 games AMD will be able to work around this a lot more.

>>55438804
If you want to upgrade you should do it now, no cracks. As soon as you have windows 7 activated, upgrade to 10, then go back to 7 if you want. That way you'll have a 10 license.
>>55438858
Install Macrium reflect, clone the HDD to SSD. Unplug the HDD and make sure windows boots ok, then you can format the HDD. Finally, go to system properties, windows experience index, Re-run assessment to let windows know it's on an ssd now so it can change it's settings

I can't download through the website anymore for some reason and started to use megatools which is more convenient anyway.
>>55438430
Depends.
For some updates you can do a dirty flash and only wipe dalvik cache and cache and then reboot your phone normally. For major updates you'll need to do a clean wipe which would mean flashing the update and then wiping everything.
I'd recommend checking the xda page for your phone and rom.
>>55439007
>Can I clone like half of the HDD only?
Not with a free program. You can copy your extra files to an external drive and then clone to your ssd. If you have more free space than full on your HDD you can try shrinking it's partition to the minimum, making a second partition and copying the files over to that, then cloning the main partition.
Otherwise you're just going to have to reinstall everything on the ssd.
>>55439239
Man that is going to suck, I would basically have to reinstall every programme in the HDD if I were to use my SSD as the OS drive?

>>55439266
If you can't clone it, yeah. Most people are able to remove enough files to get their system drive under half a terabyte. If you really have that much stuff you care about you should get an external drive immediately and start backing things up. Anyway you can backup steam before you go any farther and restore your games from the backup when you're done. That should save a lot of time downloading.
Do routers block outgoing spoofed packets by default? I can't seem to fire off spoofed packets.
>>55439328
Man this is going to suck. There's so much time involved, I think I might just give up using the SSD as an OS drive.
But how do I remove windows from my HDD?
>>55439386
It really doesn't take that long if you're doing it right. Also pretty much everyone should own an external drive, unless you're hella dedicated to using the cloud. They only cost like $50.
If you're not planning on copying the contents of your HDD to another drive and back again, then I would just delete the folders you don't need anymore, Like boot, program files, windows, and the parts of users that don't have your files in them. Your my documents, desktop etc actually wont move, you're just going to tell your new copy of windows where to find them

Should there be any problems when cloning SSD to a HDD instead of the usual HDD > SSD?
I might be taking a SSD from a desktop for my new laptop and clone the SSD to HDD in that desktop, is there any issues with that?
>>55439735
It could be your provider.
Put your local server behind your router to check if it's your router or ISP.
>>55439901
No it should be fine. Be sure and go to system properties, windows experience index, Re-run assessment to let windows know the disk type has changed. Then to double check, go to derangementer and make sure windows has scheduled C drive
>>55439921
My local server is behind my router. So it must be my ISP then I guess. I thought no ISPs did packet filtering to check for spoofed packets, as that could be expensive operations.
>>55439980
Well, it generally helps against certain DoS attacks so probably a lot of them are eager to have it filtered.
>>55439967

whats more detrimental to a GPU's longevity - idling at 60 degrees with the fans off, or idling at ~38 degrees with the fans at 30-50%
I'm on xubuntu trying to check a sgdq vod from twitch.tv
but I can't drag the player slider, I'm using chromium and firefox does anyone here have the same problem?
>>55440020
To the GPU? Idling at 60.
To the fans? Idling at 30-50%
Though as long as the fans are somewhat decent quality they will always outlast the usefulness of a GPU, so just keep it cool. Fans really don't fail.
I have a file full of objects. These objects have properties. One such property that these objects have is connections. Each connection property has its own set of properties about the connection such as size, type, etc etc. My need is taking all of these objects and put them into a file that can be read by another piece of software.
At the moment, it is a relatively crude CSV file that is responsible for transferring this information. This worked because, going back to my connector property, we would be limited to 4 connectors for each object, however; this has changed. Objects now can have a variable amount of connectors, again with their own sets of properties.
I realize in a CSV I *could* make this work, but it would be fucking ugly and messy.
My question then, what would be the best container method that would allow me to dump the information for these objects? It seems like XML or JSON would be a good option. XML getting a slight edge because I'm working in .NET and there are native tools for dealing with XML.
Any input?

Question for my liquid cooling lads. My radiator had to be screwed in on the top part of the case, with a fan positioned on top of the outside of the case (right above the radiator). Should the fan on top of my case be blowing air in to the radiator or sucking air out? I've read that you want to blow air in to the radiator, but I've also read thay fans on the ceiling of your case should always be sucking air out of the case since heat rises. Am I better off blowing air in to the radiator, or should I be sucking hot air from the case through the radiator and out of the top of the case? My temps are usually pretty good, idle around 19-24C and rises up to around 40-50 while under stress. Please help an idiot.

Use steam backup for your library, delete original games. Any non-steam games you have disks for copy the gamesave files then delete game. Do a disk cleanup on your C drive and click cleanup system files, and maybe download ccleaner.

If you want to do it on the sly, you train a shark to take your own private cable and bite it into one of the cables laying at the bottom of the Atlantic ocean. This is called a wireshark. Lots of people already do this and it's really hard to detect and the only cost is the price of a long cable and the amount to train the shark.

Game and drivers are all installed on C. I installed drivers from the website because the CD was kinda buggy and didn't install the GeForce Experience entirely.
>is Geforce experience showing everything up to date?
This is a weird thing. After I installed it, I installed the driver. After I installed it, I rebooted it and opened it again, yet it shows me that I should update again, even though I just did it and there shouldn't be a new one. So I installed it again, rebooted and it still shows me that there is a new update lol. So I just ignored it and thought it was a bug. Maybe it didn't install?

I have a Win7 ultimate PC that has been giving me grief for a while. It randomly locks up in one of two ways:

2) I have 2 sets of mice/keyboards connected so I can have a standing / sitting desk. One of the sets stops working (no loading circle just complete lack of input on kb/mouse). Clock continues to update as well as other programs but no input, the second KB/mouse works but if I ctrl-alt-delete it sits at a black screen and never gives me a task manager. Forced to hard shut down.
No events in event viewer, ran a sfc /scannow and it has detected a few corrupt files but cannot repair them. I use a USB windows install and not sure how to point the SFC to use that as the clean files?
sfcdetails.txt log:
http://pastebin.com/VADLp4Bi
I am completely lost. Next thing I am going to try is to use sfc and somehow point it to use the usb key Win7 installer as the clean back up. Would I do this by doing the following?
sfc /offbootdir=h:/
h:/ being the USB key?
There is no windows folder on the USB key only:
setup.exe
bootmgr.efi
bootmgr
autorun.inf
upgrade
support
sources
efi
daz
boot

same way you do as the mobo

just look for them
First time PC builder here, about to start ordering parts so I'm looking for last minute suggestions:
Intel Core i5-4590 3.3GHz Quad-Core Processor
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler
Gigabyte GA-B85M-DS3H-A Micro ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
Kingston HyperX Fury Black 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Kingston SSDNow V300 Series 120GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
DIYPC Shadow-H01-W ATX Mid Tower Case
Rosewill 500W 80+ Gold Certified ATX Power Supply
For my video card, I'm waiting to see if AMD can unfuck the 480, but if not I'm open to suggestions in the $200-$250 range.
All my external parts I'mrecycling from older computers for now, so their price is negligible.
Whats the best anti virus for Windows? I installed a illegal copy of Windows 10 and added the exceptions on Windows Defender to avoid it from deleted the files that allow the activation. I only use Windows for gaming and streaming.
>>55442300
Ah, now I get what you mean. I just checked, I have my DVI cord plugged into my GPU and my VGA cord into the mobo. Could this be the problem? Should I remove the VGA cord entirely?
>>55442374
probably not the problem, seems unrelated but still fix your shit
Have you tried anything else other than steam? Origin etc
maybe you need to reinstall/delete some drivers
checked google?

So what would you recommend besides common sense?
>>55442604
windows defender is enough
and every now and then a malwarebytes scan if you feel paranoid, no real time scan with it though.
>>55442604
MBAM, CCleaner, TDSSKiller
Alternatively, install Ganoo slush linucks.
It really isn't a meme, it isn't hard to use. Just use Ubuntu or Linux Mint if you have to.

What software on Windows can read .epub files?
>>55442772
sumatra.
it should be your default pdf reader already anyway.
>>55442772
SumatraPDF, Calibre
SumatraPDF is the best PDF/epub/other file reader I've ever used, because it does not contain bloat or a laggy UI. Very fast.
Calibre is bloaty, but it is a good book manager.
Use Sumatra if you want to just read it, use Calibre if you are managing a digital library or need to convert books to files readable by e-ink devices.

Dumb processing question... Even though the API says size(int, int) must be the first piece of code in the setup() method, when I put size() in setup(), I get an error.
However, when I put size() in settings, it works fine.

The thing is, I really need to install an update now (the one that upgrades the win version to 1511) in order to install video drivers. Is there any way to disable the script so I can update or how do I install this update?
I'd really prefer botnetting my windows again over having to backup everything and performing a clean install.

do you know an open-source message board framework that works without javascript? doesn't need to support images like 4chan, just messages.
/g/, I feel like a fucking moron right now. No matter what I do, I can't get DirectX 9.0c to install on Windows 10. It appears that the install completes just fine, but anything that requires it (really just talking about emulators here because that's what I'm trying to accomplish - Nestopia and PCSX2 are the main offenders atm) will still give me the same errors that it's not installed or not valid. I'm genuinely at a loss here, and no amount of googling helps. Everywhere I turn just directs me to the Microsoft download page of the June 2010 update for DirectX. If I see that dude on his shitty Windows tablet one more time I'm going to scream. Please help.
yea hi, wtf is openstack?
>>55443389
>>55443389
Pls help /g/
>>55443782
windows 10 already has every directx9 version.
you could try https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=35
which will install all versions of directx9.
Do people create imageboards? like 4chan, 2chan, hotwheels chan?

If I already have a W10 installation, can I also do a W7 installation on another partition just like a GNU/Linux distro?

I don't BSOD, I removed my OC, my temps are fine, and Event Viewer doesn't have any useful information logged.
>>55443890
>>55443943
It says that there's already a newer version installed. When I try to open PCSX2, it says I need to update some libraries and links me to the June 2010 update, which I've installed countless times. Nestopia does the same thing.

Did anyone else have any problems when building a PC for the first time?
I just realized just how dumb I really am.
Didn't use motherboard standoffs when putting mobo in first time, and screwed it on real tight.
Realized my mistake, took it off. 1 standoff missing. Try to do it without them, but Im missing the standoff fastening tool so I can't couldn't properly insert the standoffs and my mobo screw got stuck to a loose standoff screw and now I can't remove it.
GPU got stuck in the slot. Due to trying to put the GPU in and screwing it in while the standoffs weren't present, I think i broke something and it won't come out like before.
Fuck, I just feel like killing myself, I am so useless. Just gonna drop everything I bought off at a PC service and hope they can salvage this. I should quit this place, no idea what an idiot like me is even doing here.
Anyway, thanks for reading my blog.

Are Dell laptops easy enough to take apart to clean the dust out?
It's summer and mine is getting hotter than usual and it hasn't had a proper clean for about 3 years (I got it cleaned out professionally last time because it was still pretty new)
>>55444244
GPU is probably locked. Hit the button on the back of the slot.
Worst fucking invention ever.
>>55444244
Did you not watch any tutorials prior?
>>55444263
Depends on what you need and want out of your computer. Windows and OS X are one size fits most and Linux can be tailor fit if you make the investment.

thanks man, though the style removed the address bar too (which I may fix). I found out that alt t makes the File/Edit/etc menu pop out though!
>>55444322
apps for what?
look at swift for apple, android java for android, c# for windows
>>55444166
Well, they're both in my price range, though the second is a bit more expensive.
If I got the latter, would I have to worry about the GPU/CPU bottle-necking?
>>55444309
If you mean the button on the right side of the slot (the one that is the same for the RAM slots) then it doesn't work. It's solid stuck in the down position.
>>55444317
I was watching them while I was making it.
Only PC I ever owned before was a prebuilt, and I had no idea that the mobo requires special fucking stilts. The instructions for my case (define r4) are vague at best, and I thought they were some screws for a different motherboard. Either way it doesn't matter, I''m not touching it and just gonna let it be done by someone who knows what he's doing.

I tried to install new RAM in my desktop. Wouldn't post. Put the old RAM back in. Wouldn't post. Took out the motherboard battery uninstalled/unplugged everything, waited ~20 minutes and put it back together. Wouldn't post. Did the same thing but left it overnight. Wouldn't post. Did the same thing waiting random increments before putting it back together. Eventually posted on the xth try.
What could have got it to start working again? I'm scared to try the new RAM again. Should I?
