My surgery brain surgery went well with a few new bumps in the road...I have to relearn how to spell so thank God for spellcheck! I know how picky some of you are about spelling errors. :lol: If I made some grammar mistakes, I apologize since I have to relearn my grammar and reading skills too. So d...
I think you reversed the order you need to type the file location. Try deleting that link and running mklink j/ 'C:\Program Files' 'D:\Program Files' you actually can't do it that way because you get an error that the folder already exists. Firstly, before you run the command you need to make sure ...
Just wanted to remind of one less complicated alternative if it's Intel. Back when SSDs were ridiculously expensive, it was popular to use tiny SSDs for HDD cacheing, and Intel Smart Response Technology using the RST RAID driver can effectively turn the two drives into hybrid array which effective...
Something is still confusing me. I entered the following at the command prompt: mklink j/ "D:\Program Files" "c:\Program Files" It set up the link...so now when I look at my D drive, it looks like the Program Files folder is a shortcut to c:/Program Files. But as a sho...

Wow! You remember that?!? That is amazing! No it is not related to the accident. It is actually a genetic thing called MoyaMoya Oh, no, it's wasn't like that. You said "in so long", so I checked how long and saw your previous posts. :) And, stupid genetics... :-/ That makes more sense! I...
Is getting a big enough primary drive a budgetary concern? That's the only legitimate reason i can think of move it off the primary drive. yes it is...I just bought a new computer which is an unexpected expense plus I need to save every penny to pay for the out of pocket expenses for my brain surge...
Is the whole thing related to the accident a few years ago? Good luck with the operation! Wow! You remember that?!? That is amazing! No it is not related to the accident. It is actually a genetic thing called MoyaMoya [b]sunner wrote: [/b] [size=100] Dear Geeky Girl, welcome back! I'm a Catho...
Thanks for the help! I am working with a brand new computer with nothing installed but the OS so it wasn't about moving already installed programs. I did move the Users using an answer file and have moved those before without issues. Before 64 bit systems, I always moved the program files without ...
Wow, I haven't been here in so long! Happy to see the same people still trolling around here! I feel like I have lost a big part of my geekiness...I have a really bad stroke this past March which hit 7 places in my brain...all of which are on the left side of my brain...the geeky side. :( I have h...
It has been a long time since I have been here so I hope this Geeky Girl still fits in here! :P I have a brand new computer running Windows 10. I have a small SSD for the OS and a regular hard drive for data. Since the SSD is so small, I want to change the default location for the Program Files, Pro...
thanks for the help! I am going to try the Firefox add-on first but I had just found he wget website and was trying to read through it. Sadly since my head injury, I have a really hard time being a geekygirl and reading manuals
ok so this is how it goes.... I was in really bad car accident...a 19 year girl driving her mom's SUV while texting and driving 55 mph ran a red light and hit the van I was driving..with my sister and mom in the car too. I endured the worst of the of the injuries...my sister got a broken ankle and m...
Hello! How have all my favorite geeks been? It has been forever since I was here...hopefully some of you still remember me! There for a time I was one of the rare girls actively on this forum. I am so far behind on knowing all the computer latest and greatest...a lot has happened since I have been h...
Hello Everyone! It's me Geekygirl...been gone for long time but here I am again! I used to have this sweet software that would grab any type of file from a website, like pictures, videos, zip files. It has been so long since I used it, that I can't remember the name. Anyone know of any software that...
Reading up a little more on RAIDs, logically the RAID 0 still might make the best sense for me. Since I don't store data on the OS hard drives and I do video production and editing and a lot of image editing..which are the recommended uses for RAID 0, doesn't it make sense to actually keep with that...
I never wanted RAID 0 to begin with..but that is how the system came. I don't store any data on the drive with the operating system. All data is stored on external hard drives escept for the software installed of course. The only data I have on the local hard drive is material being used to make vid...
ok, a little over a year ago, when I bought my new Dell system..we all had a discussion about the system coming with a Raid 0 configuration and how I couldn't change that option upon purchasing..... Now I am going to do a clean install of Windows 7 Ultimate x64 bit and teh question of the raid confi...
Although I had my eyes set on one of the OKI laser printers (C330dn or C530dn) due to the fact that I couldn't find any supplies readily available and the toner being 100+ for each (needing a total of 4), I opted against them at this time. I also realized how many labels and other papers I have that...
I do understand what half-auto duplexing is but I am not a fan of it...It never fails that I go to print a big manual, get half way through it and the printer picks up two sheets of paper totally screwing up the print job. Yeah, I've had that happen, too. The 5550dn will do full-auto duplexing if y...
For that usage profile, a color laser that either full-auto duplexes or half-auto (you set duplex option, it prints opposite pages and then request a flip back into the tray to finish the job) is a must. Mostly depends on your budget. You can get a refurb'd HP 5550dn for around $500, which is a bus...
Welcome back :D Can't think of too much that has changed around here, same crew, some new faces, same arguments. You know, it's not too late to launch that Dell out of a cannon and build the machine you really need :wink: I sunk 1200 buck-a-roos into that system...I need to make it work.. I just or...
Well I really like the OKI printers but noticing not many places to buy them or the toner cartridges from other than directly from OKI. I am hoping this is due to being a new release but would hate to invest in it and then struggle to get the toner.

GeekyGirl, If you want duplexing AND color printing, check these out: http://okidata.com/mkt/html/nf/ColorPrinters.php?sku=62435103 http://okidata.com/mkt/html/nf/ColorPrinters.php?sku=62435203 http://okidata.com/mkt/html/nf/ColorPrinters.php?sku=C5650Series I think these may have just moved to the...
A couple of my users are most unimpressed with the Officejet Pro K8600dn. I'm afraid that's all the help I can offer.
Actually that helps a great deal as i have read reviews by pc magazine and such that gave it high ratings but it seems that the user ratings I see are always questionable or low.
Hiya!!! The geekygirl has come back after a long stay away...this girl will always be a apart of the TechReport forums!! After a lot of health issues, which I am still dealing with, and being caught up in Second Life setting up my charity and just having a blast there, I have come back to the forums...
First off...the GeekyGirl is back after a VERY long time away...You can't keep this girl away from computers for too long!! I currently own 4 printers: 1. HP Officejet 7210xi All In One 2. HP Business Inkjet 2600 wide format printer 3. Brother label printer 4. HP Photosmart 475 (4x6/5x7 portable pic...
