Without the driver, you don't have access to the hardware. Without the hardware access, you don't have a volume. With the volume, you don't have a filesystem.
Basically, you can't.

i want to start a project but i don't know where to start and maybe someone here could give me an idea. i would like to create an application that will do the same thing as that in unix/linux OS where you can group running applications into groups depending on which of the "group box"* is active when the application is started. also by dragging and dropping each application can be "transferred" to and from each of these group box. additionally the taskbar will only display applications that are in the active "group box"
*it might be called something else but i am not familiar what is called.
*this "group box" usually appear on the lower right corner of linux systems' desktop.
thank you in advance!

Hi,
I bought a DSL-2640T Wireless ADSL Router. There is a LED indicator for WLAN. But When I switched on, That indicator doesn't come. That mean, wireless is not working or we have to configure before it use? I have no any wireless network. Just I want to check that router. Please can anybody help me ?

I think your router might come with a manual. Try to check the product manual then it might give you some information.

That is really hard for you if you do not have any other wireless network to test with this device. You should have at least one wireless network beside of this router.
Hey... If you do not have any other wireless network, what is the purpose that you purchase this router?

Hi thanks for your reply. Actually it is not for me. It is for someone else. He gave me to check it.
I checked that manual. It has no mentioned anything about that.

Some routers come with WLAN enabled and a unique preset encryption key, others come with WLAN disabled (and maybe a preset encryption key). The goal is to prevent you from accidentally running an open access point.
Nonetheless, you should be able to check that from your routers administration interface. You have to be connected to the router somehow, be it by ethernet or serial connection, otherwise having a router does not make any sense at all. And if you are connected, that probably also gives you access to the routers administrative interface (web-based or custom software). Try pointing your browser to the routers ip-address and/or preset DNS name (e.g. http://fritz.box or 192.168.178.1 for AVM Fritzboxes). Then navigate to the WLAN settings and check if it is enabled or not.
Cheers,
Sebastian

In my experience they all come with wireless enabled and no encryption, but maybe they've finally started to think about out-of-box security.

My new HP laptop is going crazy. The adapter when plugged in takes really really some five minutes. The indicator glows yellow for a while before indicating green (for charging).
Called the local reseller and he couldn't advise convincingly. Any clues?

Check your laptop manual, may be it give you some information relate to your laptop or check the website for further information such as its knowledge base article.

I had a similar problem; I noticed that my battery life had dropped over 2 weeks from 2 hours to 40 minutes, and from time to time the power light on the front of the computer would flash when the computer was charging.
I downloaded the HP Battery Check from their support website to check the battery, which told me to contact HP as my battery was damaged (and the pc was under warranty).
This did not solve the problem as the battery would charge 2% then the power light would flash again (and would not charge).
As the whole pc was under warranty, I sent my old battery, my new battery and the portable to HP and they ended up changing the internal charge management card, and I believe the mainboard too...
You can search HP's site for more info. What PC do you have? (I'll look up their maintenance manual for your beast  )
Other solution; if you are still under guarantee, send it back, if not, either get a guarantee extension or think about a new PC!
Cheers,
Daniel

There are three different types of "libraries" in Linux. Static Libraries, Shared Libraries and Dynamically Loaded (DL) Libraries.
The first kind is linked with your binary code, the second type is loaded from a shared location during application startup and the third kind is loaded by code some time after startup. DL libraries would be used for plugins and other libraries which are optional/interchangable. Shared libraries are used to save space (different applications "share" a library) and static libs are used if you need to provide a special version for your application or to make it easier to run a multiple-dependant-application.
See this HOW-TO[^] for further information.
Cheers,
Sebastian

Hi All,
I would like to find out if there any way to change the path for the swap(pagefile.sys) file. In particular i want to be able to change the partition in which the pagefile resides.
Is there a sample code, blogs, article or function can I see?
Thanks,

Right click on 'My Computer'
Click on 'Properties'
Select the 'Advanced' tab
Click on 'Settings' under 'Performance'
Select the 'Advanced' tab
Click on 'Change' under 'Virtual Memory'
Make the changes you want.

Also note that you can create multiple swap files.
