Hello. How can I enable password protection on a U3 Launchpad? The Enable Security button is not on the Launchpad nor in the U3 Launchpad Settings. I unsuccessfully searched in the Help files. Thanks in advance. -- Mayfare ( talk) 02:18, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Hi, my winamp's been crashing for sometime due to gen_ml.dll, and I believe that its due to corrupted media library databases. Deleting them might solve the problem as that would force the databases to be reconstructed. But can anybody please tell me where they are located? It used to be main.dat but the latest's version is using some other path. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.201.113.34 ( talk) 08:24, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

You need a country ruled by princes, not kings. Like Monaco. They probably have thrones. 81.143.61.181 ( talk) 09:20, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
Hello ref desk. I have a 4 year old Dell Inspiron 9300 and recently bought a new hard drive, upgrading my 40GB to 80GB. I did this because I thought it was going bad, but apparently one of my RAM sticks was bad. I started 4 years ago with 512MB of RAM and upgraded to 1GB of DDR2 533 (PC2 4200) CAS latency 4. This was about 3 years ago. About 1 year ago, I purchased a second 1GB stick, exactly the same item (and 1/3 the price). This stick I purchased a year ago is the one that failed. Now I am concerned that my older stick is going to go at some point, so here's my situation. Should I spend:
Option 1 would just replace my broken RAM with the exact same stick. Option 2 would replace both of them with the exact same sticks. Option 3 would replace both of them and upgrade the speed, but downgrade the Cas latency (whatever that is). Option 4 would upgrade the speed and keep the same Cas latency.
Now, will I really benefit from an upgrade in RAM speed if my processor is rated at 533MHz FSB, with apparently an actual Bus Speed of 133MHz.
Here is my CPU-Z report.
It says the memory frequency is actually 266MHz and the Bus Speed is 133MHz, giving me a RAM ratio of 1:2. Why is my bus speed only 133MHz and why is my RAM ratio not 1:1, as in, 533:533? And what is Cas Latency?

I am not sure of the terminology so please bear with me. I have a quite battered but newish to me Acer Aspire 3680 laptop, with Windows XP and FireFox. It used to be fine with wifi. Now whenever I reboot, it refuses to recognise any networks. This caused no end of grief and a long wikibreak. Fortunately a nice passing techie (no longer around) showed me a lengthy trick to turn it on again -- I say lengthy, in that I have to remember my way through half a dozen menus. (Start --> My Computer --> Right click --> Manage --> Services and Applications --> Services --> Wireless Zero Configuration --> Start the service.) Is there a way to make the wifi stay on? Thank you. BrainyBabe ( talk) 20:36, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
I need something from a Numerical Methods book that I gave away twenty years ago! Given a set of points , what's a compact expression for the polynomial (of minimal degree) that fits exactly? — Tamfang ( talk) 20:36, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
i've got a problem at the moment that i'm developing a web page and recently played around with the include/require statments loading up class documents, i decieded to go back to what i and before (not a backup just what i rememebred i had before)now all i get when i load the page is firefox saying
Redirect Loop Redirection limit for this URL exceeded. Unable to load the requested page. This may be caused by cookies that are blocked. The browser has stopped trying to retrieve the requested item. The site is redirecting the request in a way that will never complete. * Have you disabled or blocked cookies required by this site?
* NOTE: If accepting the site's cookies does not resolve the problem, it is probably a server configurationissue and not your computer.
i cleared my cookies and cache with no effect, and hadnt done anythign with my cookies for ages
now when i comment out the require_once statment on my index page it works (untill it has problems with the class's no longer existing but thats a different problem)
a little about my code: index.php loads up session.php (my primary class document, session page handles all user log in/mangment stuff) which session then loads up other classes (database/process/error handling), all pages have require_once and it worked fine before i started tinkering with it
any suggestions to whats happening?-- 82.16.140.152 ( talk) 20:42, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
Would be possible to build a hardware emulator of a Java VM? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.49.27.114 ( talk) 23:16, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
