• Need expert advice on the a4tech wireless mouse

  Lost the Nano - receiver Usb mouse A4tech G9 557fx, can I use my bluetooth usb 3.00 device other than the desired mouse receiver. Because they both have the same air.

  No, the mouse is not able to Bluetooth.

  Given that most of the wireless devices are particularly well coupled between the device and the receiver, it is doubtful that you can get a replacement.

  However, I would connect the mouse manufacturer.

• Need some advice on a motion graphics/editing PC build.

  Here's the deal. I was builing custom PC of for more than 20 years, but not a system anything close to that I intend to build then and need expert advice and information about a person to her. I'm looking to build a system designed for video editing, creating motion graphics and 3D modeling, and some argue more questions about which components would be best for my needs (mainly on the graphics card and hard drives).

  
  

  The first is the card video (s). And I say 'maps' because I don't know if I need more a card for what I am trying to accomplish. I have create many long 3D animations and complex using Blender and After Effects, in addition to changing a variety of projects in creation and you want the best bang for my money. My budget for this system is quite high ($5 k and 10 k $) and I know I can get amazing at this price performance if I get the right equipment. Thus, on the cards. From what I have gathered, briefly, Google search, is that I want a card with CUDA Nvidia for video editing. My main question in this area is, would be to dual graphic cards or using SLI quad be good in what I'm doing or is SLI mainly intended for improved game performance? From what I understand, I think that (at least the video, not sure about 3D animation) is done mainly using the CPU and GPU not; Although the help of CUDA. Basically, I need to know how useful it is. If I bought two or four GTX 980 see a significant improvement in After Effects, Blender or creation? I plan to get one of the top (if not the top) i7 CPU I can find, so it won't be a bottleneck of my CPU performance, so please does anyone suggest to put the money into the CPU rather than the GPU because I already put the maximum amount here.

  
  

  My other main question is regarding hard disks (or solid state). I'm doing a bit of editing and modeling 3D on a laptop and it's getting really well for projects bit, that I have worked so far, but as I started to work on projects that have strict deadlines, I'll need a system that can make it basically as fast as possible. My main question in this area is, should I use any sort of RAID array. I looked at several forums, but none of them specifically answered the question for my unique situation. Most other forums says ' well, if you will only use it for editing and not animation "etc but I'm going to do a 3D animation as well, so I need to know what the answer is in this case instead... I also know that the other messages regarding the change of systems, to recommend the use as three discs for things like "scratch disks". I have a feeling that I'll get a few recommendations here saying I need like seven discs for what I'm trying to make, which are the answers that I really can't wait to hear about. I mainly looked at RAID 5, 6, & 10 but do not fully understand them, and have in fact never implemented in any system I've built so far. From what little I understand, I think that RAID 10 would work better for my needs, which offers a great read & write speeds which is important and also provides redundancy, which IMO is even more important. I can't have the system down for an hour, or worse a week because one of my drives breaks down. My other question in this area is a table of the SSD would greatly improve performance in a RAID 10 array? Would it be profitable? I read in a post recently that drives hard actually handle more large files better than SSDs and worried to SSD in the test bench because they would not be able to handle larger video files and I'll use it frequently as well as hard drives would be. I guess I'll be shooting and editing many 4K projects soon and need a system that will handle this resolution well. If I have to use 4 hard drives in an array of RAID 10 for my OS (the RAID for speed and redundancy), drive a small SSD for a scratch disk and a large SSD or HARD drive for a player video output, please list the exact readers/configuration that you would suggest that I use and why. I am very interested in a bit of a discussion here to get the best possible configuration for the money and will respond to all sincere responses as quickly as possible.
  

  I know I already asked several complicated issues here but am hoping someone with a little more experience that I have in building editing systems can provide some advanced tips and help me and someone else who can try to build a similar system in the future. I know also that this issue is not specifically intended for the AE, but it has to do with this and because EI is editor and motion graphic, I'm find the best advice for a system that will edit video and create animations. Thank you 1 million (in advance) to anyone who provides a contribution instructed in answer to the questions that I have!
  

  simply 2xssd raid 1 (mirror) for the OS/applications.

  1 ssd for zero/previews

  second raid 6 or 10 with the hdd or ssd for the media.   (if you don't get a lot of drives to get the speed, you will want to use ssd.)

  No raid for backups. can use several disks hard, but in combination with off-site, such as cloud backup.

  Optional could be another ssd for cache/export. If the ssd scratch fails, it would be able to support.

  can take a look at the guides of storage here for more information.  Tweakers Page

• Pavillion G6 2014tx: wireless connectivity problems

  Since the last 2-3 months, my wireless connection does not work correctly. This happened right after that I did the partitioning in the D drive (I don't think this is the main cause).

• Nook Color ereader &amp; connectivity problems with router WRT610N

  I recently bought a new Nook color ereader for my wife. As long as a network administrator, I thought that this would be an easy task to configure the ereader to connect with my Linksys WRT610N router on the 2.4 Ghz band. But I'm running problems when connecting. The question seems to have intermittent connection problems where the meals seem to see the wireless network, authenicates, tries to get an IP address, then connects for a short period or removes the signal very quickly while being right on top of the router with the device.

  By the recommendations of various forums of Nook, I had the best luck with the following...

  2.4 Ghz band settings

  SSID: NookNetwork

  Channel width: 20 GHZ

  Standard channel: 9

  SSID Broadcast: enabled

  Security mode: WPA2 Personal

  Encryption: AES

  Passphrase: set out

  Key renewal: 3600

  UPNP: disabled

  RTS: default

  Defragmentation: default

  Tag: default

  However, the problem still resides in an intermittent connection to the wireless network. I also tried various arrangements of the channel to both channels 1, 6 and 11 with my best cponnecting chance to channel 9. I also played with the security and disabled all together and have plugged but always file (will not however run the unsecured network). Also try a tag value of 75, a framework of fragmentation of 2306 and 2307 RTS setting. My computer laptop while run and connect properly.

  I use the latest software updated both on the color of the corner. I am at the end and have searched high and low to get suggestions, and have not yet reached a compatible connection. Please help... Thank you! And my wife thank you in advance! Smiles!

  Hi death,

  Thanks again for your comments and your concerns. Really appreciated!

  I took your advice and contacted Barnes & Noble for a new replacement and am waiting for the reception of the new unit as I type. If all goes well, we have reduced the problem and the replacement ends at our misfortunes... smiles!

• Connection problems on Netflix in Media Center: "there was a problem of signing. Make sure your internet connection is working and try again. »

  Original title: Netflix in windows media center, connection problems

  I saw disorder connect to Netflix on windows media center. I am running windows vista x 64. When I select the icon of the login screen appears, but when I try to connect it comes up with the error message "there was a problem of signing. Make sure your internet connection is working and try again. "my internet connection is fine and I can connect to http://www.Netflix.com/, so this problem should make windows media center, but I can't understand it. I have updated windows and windows media center and I'm still having this problem. Thanks in advance for any advice.

  The most likely explanation is NetFlix changed something in their routine of authentication (i.e. SOAP structure or just a URL string, whatever) and who broke the Vista NetFlix WMC client. It did not affect the web interface of NetFlix because operated a NetFlix service, they were obviously aware of the change pending and adjusted their web client to use the new method.

  Customer WMC NetFlix in Windows 7 (which is a new product), was probably already coded to use the new method. The client in Vista has continued to work with the old method, until NetFlix finally stop this method. Microsoft, slow to react and to assign developers to fix the Vista NetFlix WMC client missed the deadline and Vista users have been in the dark for a while.

  That's pretty standard for web services that cross corporate barriers. Particularly involving slow mega-body like Microsoft. A company change a routine and the other has to play catch-up. Communication is often difficult between the divisions within a company, between companies, it is often non-existent.

  The level of prissy whining in this thread was good for a laugh however. Those threatening to cancel NetFlix: rolleyes: your access was still working on their Web site. You were not without service, just, without the convenience of WMC. People grumble at Microsoft... anyone know if Microsoft was still knowledgeable of * when * NetFlix was going to turn off the old authentication? If they were told the night before (or any) "Hey let's turn off the old authentication routine" what kind of response do you expect? How long is it since the problem began, 28 days? It's actually a pretty fast for an element relatively low priority. Or it could just be that NetFlix reactivated their old methods of authentication as a temporary solution to this problem (they share a part in creation) until Microsoft can respond formally with an update.

  Now if Microsoft was duly informed advanced evolution of the service, still dragged feet (quite possible) I don't give them no slack. But at the end of the day, it is always a matter of low priority. It's fixed now, be happy until the next time that Netflix change their authentication routine.
