Which one do you recommend and why?? Will use gigabyt Ethernet and wifi together, will use at home, it must be good for device cache for longtime usage you know. Thanks. -- Can Kırca

Replied Emails going to sender.

Hi list does anyone know why when I reply to a message on this list that the original senders email is in the To field, rather than the blind sysadmins address. I keep forgetting so my apologies if people have received replies to their own email address. it never used to do this and does not happen on any other mailing list. Using thunderbird as my email client. Darren.

windows 10 sfc corrupted files
by David Mehler 31 Mar '18

31 Mar '18

Hello, I booted a win10 machine from win10 talking PE, and ran sfc /scannow it reported some file corruption but said it was unable to fix it. NVDA wasn't reading the screen very well like it couldn't focus, and I have no idea where the log is, it's in c:\windows\logs\ somewhere. If anyone knows where these logs would be or how to get sfc in a PE to repair the corruption i'd appreciate knowing. Thanks. Dave.

Hello, I've got a drive that's acting up. What I want to do is image it, get a complete image, then load that in to a virtual machine. Is this doable? Thanks. Dave.
