This is an issue with someone at work and I'm hoping you guys can help me resolve it. Basically, she can never bring her monitor back from an idle state unless she restarts the computer. I asked her to check the Power Management settings and she ran into this error: ' An exception occurred...

The other day, I realized that I hadn’t really played my Wii in quite some time. With the exception of maybe a round or two of Wii Sports bowling or a turn during Wii Play, I don’t believe I’ve put in any extensive Wii time at all this year. I’ve played and beaten Super Mario Galaxy...

I had an idea for a fun website and I’ve decided to take the opportunity and relearn HTML/CSS. It’s been great fun so far but I’ve run into a minor roadblock. Here is the situation. Let’s say that I have links to ten different grocery lists on this website. Users can click on a link...

This place is so dead that it hurts sometimes. Anyone here familiar with Greasemonkey? I need to create a script that replaces an input tags value with the value of my choice. It seems like this would be trivial to do with Greasemonkey buuuuut....I don't have the knowledge to do this (yet)...

After checking out the awesomeness that is http://www.collectingsmiles.com/colors/Colors!</a> I've decided to take the plunge and buy myself and my best friend (his birthday is coming up) Nintendo DS flash cards so we can run homebrew applications, emulators, and games. I'm just looking into...

I'm in the mood to play some old school Game Boy games. I never got into GB emulation so I don't know which emulator to use, or even what my options are. Any suggestions? <P ID="signature"></img> Wii console code - 7551377053011860</P>

Different apartment, yet another soundproofing question. The two bedroom doors in my new apartment have slits in them. The doors look very similiar to <a href-="http://www.tmcobb.com/products/pineDoors.htm">this</a> (#403). My roommate and I have decided to go crazy and try to soundproof them...

I posted this on another forum but I wanted to get the ZMD opinion on this as well since I love and respect everyone here. I'm looking to purchase a brand new TV since my 27" Advent is slowly dying. I don't ever plan on watching cable/satellite programming on it. I'll only use the TV for...

Wow, what a sloppy game of football. I was rooting for the Bears but only because I really don't like Manning at all. The Eagles made it a lot farther than I (or anyone else) thought and that made me happy. Hopefully they'll have a better year this year. The commercials were pretty damn funny...

It's time once again for me to look into making a small formfactor PC. A few years ago, I built myself a micro ATX multimedia/emulation PC. The thing still works like a champ, but it is fairly loud and also not as small as I'd like (a little bigger than a Shuttle). I'm looking into building a...

If I have a device that normally requires two AA batteries, would it be possible to rig up something that connects to the battery slot so that the device instead draws power from a USB slot? I’m not talking about recharging the device or anything like that…it just needs to draw its power...

So the Wii has been out for a little more than a week now and I figured it is time to write some “expanded impressions” of the system. Initially, I was bummed that the Wii didn’t have any sort of start-up screen like the other consoles have, but the fast boot-up time into the main menu...

I'm in the market for a decent component switch to add to my home entertainment center. I have two devices that use component, one that uses s-video, and around three that use composite. My TV can accept two component inputs and three composite / s-video inputs. With the release of the Wii on...

My roommate and I have an interesting dilema on our hands. We currently live in a fairly large two bedroom apartment, right below the other occupants. Obviously, since we live in such close proximity to them, noise can and is a factor. We can hear them everytime they get up, walk around...

I had an old, broken Xbox lying around and I decided it would be a nifty idea to try and softmod it. Long story short, I successfully managed to softmod the stock hard drive. After that, I successfully installed a 40 gb drive into the box. So now I have a softmodded Xbox running UnleashX on a...

I'm looking to purchase an Official Sega Dreamcast Fishing Controller and Sega Bass Fishing. One of my very good friends is celebrating his birthday at the end of the month and I'm getting this for him as a gag gift. I've checked Ebay and it looks like I can get both of these for around $20...

Things have been pretty slow around here lately, so hopefully this topic will generate some discussion. I finished building my new PC about a week ago and I'm just about done with the old one. I'm petitioning my tech-savvy friends for ideas on what to do with it. The system isn't bad (Athlon XP...
