• swapping hard drives between 8115-PXI and PXI-8105 won't boot to the top

  I have a test system running Windows XP on the PXI-8105.  I have upgraded the full test for another project system and upgrade my existing systems; the upgrade works on Windows 7 and PXI-8115.  I have Windows 7 and the new test software of new hard drives that have been loaded/configured/tested on a PXI-8115, but I need to modernize the PXI-8105 with them.  It does not work.  Windows begins to start, but fails and trying over and over again.  In order to make the PXI-8105 offline to troubleshoot, I replaced it with the PXI-8115 and the old disk (WinXP).  It did not start, either.

  Here is a summary of my situation:

  • An old a PXI-8105 system running Windows XP
  
  
  • A new system has PXI - 8115 Win7 running
  
  
  • A hard drive (with Win7) since the PXI-8115 does not start on the PXI-8105
  
  
  • A hard drive (with WinXP) since the PXI-8105 does not start on the PXI-8115

  What is different between two controllers PXI that prevents me to swap hard drives?

• Change hard drive between 2 laptops

  At work, we use the same models of laptops, HP Probook 4510 s.  Now, I need to swap hard drives between two of them, as it stops because it's hot.  Of course, this now happens after the warranty.

  Should I do this swap of problems?

  Although the same model, the Windows authentication system will see this as a new motherboard. However, because they are the same model with the necessary BIOS table must self authenticates without any problem and in all probability, you will in fact see nothing wrong.

  The most common cause of overheating is the radiator for the cooling heatpipe CPU system get cluttered with dust. Any portable reasonable technician should be able to solve this problem pretty quickly in less than an hour.

• Authentication of computers 2 after swapping hard drives

  My processor of the computer crashed while I bought 2 genuine 2 retailers refurbished Dell computers.  I confirmed the authentication with Dell.  A computer was XP Pro and the other had Windows 7 with 7 offices to help retailers OEM licenses.  They both have been authenticated by SM.  After bringing home PC, I swapped hard drives.  How (if possible) I authenticate these while MS recognizes and updates?

  What you did is not possible. Windows and Office OEM versions live and die on the computer on which they are first installed. OEM licenses are not transferable.

• Editing photos on an external hard drive using two different computers - a laptop computer and a desktop computer

  Hi, I have all my photos on an external drive. I want to change my photos on my desktop at home and then to be able to work on my laptop when on mobile. My catalog is stored on my external hard drive. But the changes that I did for the photos on my laptop do not seem to have been recorded on my external hard drive when I watched tonight on lightroom on my desk.

  The file that I watched tonight is a native import of original photography don't not presenting the any fixtures that I made earlier today.

  Any suggestions on where I'm wrong.

  Hi juliew,

  The adjustments you make in Lightroom are stored in the catalog itself. It makes no changes directly with the original files.

  For example, you won't find any changes on the original images.

  If you are not able to see editing in Lightroom itself, please make sure that you opened the same catalog from the external hard drive on both computers.

  I hope this helps.

• "Limited connection" when you configure the network between two computers XP.

  Original title: Configuration of the network connection

  Trying to establish a network connection between two home PCs., both running Windows XP Pro. Have been through the network on both PC Setup Wizard but, they still say limited, in fact no connection. I use an Ethernet cable between the two Crusader. If it is true what I'm doing wrong?

  Thanx Terry

  Old but good, networking tips from MVP Malke, MS:

  The best and simplest is to buy a wireless router. This way you get Internet connectivity both machines and the added benefit of security more between you and the Internet. Then you configure your network wireless safely, and then you configure file/printer sharing. Here is information on the implementation of a router and also in networking. It seems long, but don't be intimidated. Setting up a router and the LAN of sharing between two computers takes about 15 minutes.

  The router configuration

  Setting up a router is simple enough. Normally, you run the CD that came with the router and follow the instructions. If you're running Vista, maybe the CD that came with the router does not work; I do not know this. But you can set up the router without the CD. Note that if you have Internet cable for the connection you have just set up the router to DHCP (or there may even be a choice of cable to choose). If you have DSL Internet, you select TRP usually and enter the username and password you selected when you initially set the DSL connection. So:

  1. turn off the power to your cable modem.

  2. attach a cable (usually supplied with the router) course Ethernet cat5e Internet/WAN port of the router to the Ethernet port on the cable modem.

  3. connect the ethernet cable cat5e from the network card in your computer to one of the ports on the router. If you do not have an ethernet cable (because you were using USB), you will need to go to the store and buy a.

  4. turn on the cable modem. After that all the lights are on, turn on the router.

  To configure the router:

   

  Have a computer connected to the router with an ethernet cable. Examples given are for a Linksys router. See the manual of your router or the router mftr's Web site. for the parameters by default if you don't have a Linksys. Open a browser such as Internet Explorer or Firefox and in the address bar type:

  http://192.168.1.1 [Enter] (it is default IP address of the router, which varies from router to router then check your manual)

  This will bring you to the login screen of the router. The default username is blank and the Linksys default password is "admin" without the quotes. Enter this information. You are now in the configuration of the router utility. Your configuration utility may be slightly different from mine.

  Click the Administration link at the top of the page. Enter your new password. MAKE A NOTE SOMEWHERE THAT YOU WILL NOT LOSE. Re-enter the password to confirm it, and then click Save settings at the bottom of the page. The router will reboot and show you the box of connection again. Do not fill in the user name and put it in your new password to enter the configuration utility.

  Now, click on the link wireless at the top of the page. Change the network name (SSID) wireless by default to something, you'll recognize. I suggest that my clients not use their surname as the SSID. For example, you might want to name your network wireless network "CastleAnthrax" or similar.

  Click on save settings and when you get the prompt that your changes were successful, click the wireless security link which is just beside the Basic Wireless Settings link (where you changed your SSID). If you have a newish computer, you will be able to affect security WPA2-Personal Mode. Do this and enter a password. The password is what you enter on all computers that are allowed to connect to the wireless network. MAKE A NOTE SOMEWHERE THAT YOU WILL NOT LOSE.

  At this point, your router is set up and if the computer that you use to configure the router will normally connect wireless, disconnect the Ethernet cable and wireless of the computer should see your new network. Enter the password you created to join the network and start surfing.

  B. file/printer sharing of

  Excellent, comprehensive, but easy to understand article on sharing files/printer under Vista. Contains information about sharing printers and files, and the folders:

  http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727037.aspx

  For XP, start by running the Network Setup Wizard the on all machines (see warning in section A below).

  Problems sharing files between computers on a network are usually caused by 1) a misconfigured firewall or a firewall neglected (including a dynamic firewall in a virtual private network); or (2) inadvertently run two firewalls such as the firewall of Windows and a third-party firewall. and/or (3) do not have accounts to the same users and passwords on all computers in the workgroup. (4) tries to create actions where the operating system does not.

  A. configure the firewall on all machines to allow traffic to local area network (LAN) as being approved. With the Windows Firewall, it means which allows file sharing / print on the Exceptions tab normally run the XP Network Setup Wizard will take care of this for these machines. The only "witch hunt", it will turn on the XPSP2 Windows Firewall. If you are not running a third-party firewall or you have an antivirus with "Internet Worm Protection" (like Norton 2006/07) which acts as a firewall, you're fine.  With a third-party firewall, I usually set up the allocation of LAN with an IP address range. E.g. would be 192.168.1.0 - 192.168.1.254. Obviously you would substitute your correct subnet. Do not run more than one firewall. DON'T STOP FIREWALLS; CONFIGURE THEM CORRECTLY.

  (B) to facilitate the Organization, put all computers in the same workgroup. This is done from the System applet in Control Panel, the computer name tab.

  C. create the counterpart of the user accounts and passwords on all machines. You do not need to be logged into the same account on all machines and assigned to each user account passwords can be different; accounts/passwords just need to exist and to match on all machines. DO NOT NEGLECT TO CREATE PASSWORDS, EVEN IF ONLY OF SIMPLE. If you want a machine to boot directly to the desktop (a particular user account) for convenience, you can do this. The instructions on this link work for XP and Vista:

  Set up Windows to automatically connect (MVP Ramesh) - http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Autologon.htm

  D. Si one or more of the computers is XP Pro or Media Center, turn off Simple file sharing (Folder Options > view tab).

  E. create share as you wish. XP Home does not share the users directory or the Program Files, but you can share folders inside those directories. A better choice is to simply use the Shared Documents folder. See the first link above for more information on Vista sharing.

  F. you have the job of file sharing (and tested by exchanging a file between machines), if you want to share a printer connected locally to one of your computers, share of this machine. Then go to the printer mftr Web site. and download the latest drivers for the correct system. Install them on the target machines. The printer must be collected during the installation procedure. If this isn't the case, install the drivers and then use the Add Printer Wizard. In some cases, printers must be installed as local printers, but it is outside this response.

• Content of mail to sync between two computers

  Is it possible to synchronize the content of mail between two computers [iPhone, if possible]? Computers currently send and receive the same two e-mail accounts [not an account of @iCloud.com]. But if I receive an email, reply or remove it on a single computer, it is always also a new email unread on the other. It's a possibility, perhaps with a disc of individual cloud?

  Late 2008 MacBook Pro. El Capitan 10.11.3

  Mac Mini; El Capitan 10.11.6

  iPhone 6; IOS 9.3.5

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  Only IMAP e-mail accounts sync on devices. That's how to operate these services - nothing else is required to achieve this.

  If your email is responsible for no synchronization across all computers and devices, you must have type accounts pop connect you to these accounts via a web browser and look at your options and account services. POP is such an old system these days there is almost nobody left that enemies do not switch to IMAP.

  If all this is confusing, call your email providers and ask them to make the change on their end, then ask the information you will need to enter on your computers and your iDevices.

• Try to set up a direct parallel connection between two computers in Windows XP Home edition

  The same thing happens when I try to implement the same connection between my laptop and the desktop we have. All of these computers are running on Windows XP service pack 2. I really need help with this because I'm about to start pulling my hair.

• Is it possible to synchronize a directory between two computers using ReadyCloud Desktop Client?

  Hi all

  Is it possible to use the ReadyCloud Desktop Client to synchronize a directory between two computers, i.e. of office and computer laptop?

  I use OS 6.4.2 and the latest version of the Desktop Client at ReadyCloud.

  In addition, both computers are running Windows 10 Pro.

  Thanks in advance

  Hello knocwans,

  Sorry, but ReadyCloud app is designed to allow you to synchronize folders computer device ReadyNAS and not from computer to computer. There is no option on the client where you select as the source computer and another computer as the destination.

• GPIB communication between two computers

  I try to communicate between two computers via GPIB. A computer to send an order, the other will receive, save and then respond accordingly. This response will then be received by the first computer and displays (this is the emulation of a device, the real need is to communicate with a satellite TT & C)

  I realized all of this. However, to be in listening mode I wired a property node with a timeout-infinity (1) before reading. Now I can't leave the VI as he is still stuck in playback until the receipt of an order.

  How can I get out of the VI when he's stuck in playback function.

  PS: Using GPIB for communication is a requiremnet of ht eproect and cannot be replaced.

  Hello

  You can have the timeout of read and then clear the error and keep looping until you get a message.  And then you can use arithmetic consisting of stop the loop if you click on the stop button, or get one error other than a timeout, or if playback returns data.

  If it works for you?  I joined your 'writing and then read.vi' with the added code.  Double check my logic, I'm sure it's just but not run it.  Also, if you return a large amount of data make sure that the time-out period is sufficient.

• E/s Ethernet between two computers

  I have two computers running labview. I'm trying to generate a signal on one and read it on the other. Connection between two computers is ethernet. The problem is that NEITHER MAX cannot detect a network device. I have ping successfully the signal sent to the computer via the command prompt. Any ideas on why MAX can't detect the signalling computer?

  Try running the examples on the same machine. If you can't find the example works between two instances of the application of different on the same computer, then you certainly won't operate on two different machines. Once it works, try using the IP address instead of the host name of the computer. If still no luck, try disconnecting all other networks on both machines.

• Remote access share folder between two computers

  I have two computers connected by a CAT5 cable, have all two firewall is enabled. This network has a server, DNS & DHCP server or router. Only two computers XP SP3.

  • Firewall is enabled
  • File sharing and printer checked with selected custom list

  Two types of tests:

  Test 1: I configured two computers with a static IP address and enter the IP subnet 10.0.0.0/24 network in the custom list. The PC - A (10.0.0.1) and typing\\computername or \\IP_AddressPC - B (10.0.0.2) access. Access to shared folder has no problem with this setting.

  Test 2: I changed the dynamic IP address static IP on both computers and let XP itself generate dynamic IP 169.x.x.x. I went to the list of custom and changed in 169.0.0.0/16, this settings I'm unable to access the remote folder.

  • I could not access by \\IP_Address get a message error "network path was not found.
  • \\Computername took almost a minute to open a window, but he has now shared resources, such as file sharing.
  • I can ping by IP address, but could not ping by ComputerName

  Issues related to the:

  1. Class B is allowed in the custom list?
  2. Can I use the IP address dynamic Windows XP for the connection between two computers or on multiple computers?
  3. Why class C has worked very well and no class B?
  4. Is it because I used XP dynamic IP or custom list accesses no class B or both?

  Hello

  Part of a Wireless cable/DSL Router is a DHCP server.

  The server assigns the IP address to network computers are configured to Auto obtain IP address.

  If for some reason, the computer cannot connect to the router, it cannot obtain an IP address and Windows assign a default IP 169.xxx.xxxx.xxx. This IP address is not functional for regular internet IP and network.
  
  Since you don't have any DHCP server on your system, you must use static IP as you did before.
