I'm not that familiar with static memory. Your best bet is to run a memory test to determine if the failure is located in the memory module. If you do register an error, swap the modules into different slots and test again. If you return another error, there is a good chance you do have bad stick of memory. If you do not return an error on the second attempt, it is probably a bad socket, not the memory module; in which case you would need to replace the motherboard.
Another thing you want to avoid is "mix-n-match memory". Make sure that the memory installed in the system is nearly exactally the same. You said they are PC133, so make sure both are ECC or neither are ECC, make sure the brands match too - as some brands do not mix well with others. You will also want to check with your BIOS to make sure the voltage output to the modules are correct.
Lastly, if I am not mistaken, SRAM is an old(er) technology. That being the case, you may want to think about upgrading the system entirely.

I have been thru the swapping into different banks.
So far it runs better with just single module in bank 0.
Of course I do not notice any difference in speed.
I have not tried bank 1 to find out if it is a socket itself.
It would be very unlikely since I have similar failures in two PS's.
I do not believe in upgrading just because it is "older" technology.
When it runs it is OK for my C++ development.
Actually I prefer slower machine - it lets me take a break during compile!
Thanks for your input,
Cheers

PS Technically it is really SDRAM.
What puzzles me that the BIOS memory test always passes.

Sram is the design used in CPU caches. It's much faster than dram but is more expensive to make and needs more space on the silicon. IIRC Sram uses several transistors to store a value, Dram charges a capacitor to do the same.

Hi,
I want to display the Ethernet MAC address and Wireless MAC address on my application.
I am able to enumerate the network adapters on my PC. But, how can I tell which MAC address belongs to which network adapter?
Thank you,
AJ
|
|
|
|
|
It belongs to the adapter you are currently enumerating....
Seriously, the name for the enumerated adapters should be available somewhere. WMI, perhaps?
Haven't done this before, so I really cannot say much more.
Cheers,
Sebastian

Dear all,
I am using ADSL connection. Am using Linksys wireless router WAG325N (i have set a password for this connection), now i need to supply connection to an upper floor, away from the wireless signal length. I want to add wireless linksys access point connected to the router, i will use WAP54G.
My concern is that i have been told that the connection throught that access point will not be password protected, in other words, that any PC within the range of the access point can get connect without the need of the password.
Is it true?
Please Advise
Best regards.

Ok, there are a few minor issues with the setup you described. Nothing is "wrong" with it, if that is what you want; but I don't think this is the case.
The router you chose, the WAG325N, is really good. It supports 802.11b,g, and n. Now, I am assuming you want to put the wireless access point upstairs because you don't have any cable run up there. This makes sense, but I don't think you want an access point; you want a signal repeater. The access point you chose, the WAP54G, is just another router. You can daisy chain the two, but that can be troublesome to setup; and, the access point, or router (WAP54G), will have to be physcially connected to the main router (WAG325N). This defeats the purpose all-together. On top of that, if it does work out, all devices accessing the secondary network (upstairs) will only operate at 802.11b, and g speeds, and not 802.11n at all.
I think a better solution to your problem is to use a signal repeater for the upstairs level. A signal repeater will recieve a signal from your router and then re-broadcast it at a much higher decibel (dB) level. But keep in mind that most signal repeaters can only repeat ONE signal frequency. So if you get a repeater that will repeat an 802.11g signal, than the 802.11g signal will be the strongest on the upper level and therefore will only provide 802.11g speeds to those devices connected to the network on that frequency.

thanks for help, but
I cant get a repeater and I only have the WAP54G, i wanted it to be connected phisically by a cat6 cable to the WAG325N, and to be pasword protected for any one wants to cnonect to it. could it be done this way? or it will be unprotected ?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, that will work. It looks like the WAP54G supports WiFi Protected Access (WPA), so it will offer protection. But as mentioned earlier, linking the two routers and having them both provide connectivity on the same network will be difficult.
Post your results, I'd like to hear about it.

Hi all,
I need to install telephones 200 meters apart from the PABX. My question is, can i use ordinary multi pair telephone cable (cat 1) or do i need to use cat5e or cat6 cable.
thanks in advance for help
|

Both cables have a max segment length of 100 meters. So once you get a signal booster or two on each run, you then only have to decide what type of phone system you will be utilizing. POTS (CAT-1)with signal boosters will provide voice only for each extention. Or you could go with VoIP (among others) with signal boosters; you will need to run at least CAT-5, but if your budget will allow, try to go with CAT-5e so you have the ability to operate on a stable 1000Base-T network.
|

|

Cat5e is only for 100base-t networking. For 1000 you need cat6.

Not necessarily. If you look up the standard, CAT-5 was initially supposed to support 100Base-T and 1000Base-T, but it was an unofficial specification and fairly unstable on 1000Base-T networks. The CAT-5e specification was created to support a 1000Base-T network by simply making minor adjustments to the CAT-5 specification. CAT-6 does the same thing as CAT-5e, but has much more room to grow; like having power over ethernet, etc.

Are these POTS - (48V plain telephone extensions) or proprietary or IP phones?
|
|
|
|
|
The telephones are proprietary telephones, the extensions are Panasonic PABX extenstion, the plug is RJ11.

I'm trying to build a USB hub driver whose behavior is like windows' built in one.
My implementation is based on the ddk's example: toaster. Mass storage devices and scanners
works fine on my driver, however usb cameras can't be started.
I analysed the irps when the camera is plugined. After the start device irp, the driver received
a remove device irp. The ddk document says if anyone in the driver stack failed in start device irp,
pnp manager will send a remove device irp. I think there must be something wrong in the implementation before the remove device irp is sent.
There is a query interface irp which query TRANSLATOR_INTERFACE before the remove device irp is sent and I return STATUS_NO_SUPPORTED.
My response to start device irp is just like the toaster example does.
My question is:
1. Do I have to implement the TRANSLATOR_INTERFACE to fix the problem?
2. Or is there something else I have to do in my start device response?
|
|

|

If you're trying to build something that functions like the standard one, my first suggestion is to get an IRP tracker and monitor what the standard one does. If it processeses a given IRP, your replacement should as well.

Thanks Judy! I tried to process query interface irp for translator interface(which the standard one does), but I couldn't find any information about how to do it.Any suggestions?
|
|

|

Sorry, no. Never done USB or even looked at it out of curiousity.

Did you try returning a success status?
Have a google for it, there is some info out there on this message.

I'm stuck up with two processors T7250 (Intel Core 2 Duo 2 GHz, 2 MB cache) and T7500 (Intel Core 2 Duo 2.2 GHz, 4 MB cache)
Actually +0.2 GHz speed and +2B cache can make any significant difference in performance?
Between these two, there's nearly 150$ difference.
Please share your opinion.

Hi,
I would not pay much for 10% higher frequency, assuming the FSB frequency is the same
(I rhink it is 800MHz for both).
I would not pay much for twice the cache size unless my main application would fit
in the larger one while not fitting the smaller one, which is very unlikely.
I would rather spend some money in getting:
- faster memory if my app is not disk bandwidth limited;
- faster disk, or a second disk, if it is (such as Visual Studio);
- more memory (unless you run only one or a few apps at a time).
As a software developer (with mainly small apps) the T7250 IMO is the ideal CPU right now,
it is the cheapest one with 800MHz FSB (so was the 1.8GHz T7100 earlier).

|

Thanx for you suggestions. What you said is true, just 10% increased cpu wont make big difference.
