I recently sent my 5.1 Surround Sound HPA2 Turtle Beaches ( Product Page) in for repairs. So I switch to a couple of somewhat crappy single-jack headphones I have laying around. But for some reason, the computer doesn't even recognize them when I input the jack - no response. How should I troubleshoot? Thanks, Res Mar 03:04, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
Hello.
I'm looking for either open-source software or atleast freeware which is compatible with Windows 7, and can reveal the password of a WEP network without resetting or modifying the password. The target WEP router is my own - if it something gets screwed up, I can just reset the router and start over. This is for my own personal interest, not for bandwidth-stealing or any other illegal activity.
Thanks everyone. Rocketshiporion ♫ 05:39, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

I'm having some difficulty finding an answer to this question. MSDN seems to be a sea of unrelated documentation without an effective index of SQL Server developer guides for older versions of the product. So can anyone provide me with an idea of when bigint (64-bit integer) was introduced as a datatype in SQL Server? - for example, is it supported in SQL Server 2000? How about earlier versions?
Also, are there any recent versions of SQL Server which do not support bigint? Thanks. Astronaut ( talk) 10:27, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
I've managed to connect to the internet on my laptop via my mobile phone's bluetooth connection. But after getting a data-cable, I can't connect to the net via the cable (using a dial-up connection) unless both my lap's and my cell's bluetooth are switched on.Is keeping bluetooth on mandatory for connecting to the net? Doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose of having a data-cable in the first place?? Is there any way to connect to the net without switching on my lap's/cell's bluetooth? Thanks in advance! 117.97.129.0 ( talk) 13:24, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
Yeah. I'm absolutely sure, because when I connect via bluetooth, it shows the bluetooth connection status as "connected", and when I use my data-cable, it shows the dial-up connection status as "connected". 110.225.188.86 ( talk) 09:13, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
Is there a website that lists the android phones available? I'm looking for one and the wireless carriers have disgustingly sad websites that cannot do something as simple as "show me the android phones with a full qwerty keyboard and wifi". -- kainaw ™ 17:51, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
When I asked about this a while ago, it was suggested that Mozilla Thunderbird could be used to back-up Hotmails email to my HD. Please could you tell me 1) if this leaves the emails still available online, and 2) if it is possible to back up the emails a section at a time (eg the last months worth for example), as backing up the several years of them at once may cause problems due to the bulk involved?
I don't know anything about the technicalities of emails, and would prefer not to have to get involved with anything complicated. If there is anything that can backup Hotmail emails just by clicking a button, or which is simpler to use than Thunderbird, then I'd be very interested to hear about it. I would likely only use it for backing-up, no other purpose. Thanks 92.15.1.103 ( talk) 20:22, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
Thanks. The first two links are outdated, but the last one is still current. 92.24.188.182 ( talk) 20:06, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
Hi. I have a little 12 inch powerPC G4, running macosX 10.5.8. I want to buy a USB webcam for use with skype, and am worried that new webcams will only work with intel models. Can anyone recommend a budget webcam that is known to work on my hardware? Thanks, Robinh ( talk) 21:38, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
I have sound files from field recordings that I recently found are not identical to their back-up copies. (I discovered this when I scanned my comp for duplicate files.) I'm afraid that some program I used to listen to them may have made changes, though I never saved anything. This won't matter if it's metadata, but I need to keep the sound quality as good as possible, and am not sure which copy to rely on. Is there any free/shareware out there that will show me where the differences are? — kwami ( talk) 22:59, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
