in the 90's when I setup computers, I would occasionally label the C: drive TOO LOUD - see screen shot. Apparently this generated a few support calls long after I had left. #SaturdayFF

HAHAHA I used to name it FOR COOKIE, which only annoyed my mom since she'd change it to something else and I'd change it back. - Anika

I worked with a guy who used to change the Internet Explorer icon to be Internet Exploder. No one noticed. - Andy Bakun

Time Warner accidentally cut our cable Monday afternoon. Wish I knew which one is ours. 3 of the 6 are severed. Hopefully they will show up soon. - Mike Nencetti
TW called to say they will be here soon. - Mike Nencetti
It took them that long to come out after cutting them? - Anika
When you call they assume the problem is in the house. so I had to schedule 5 to 7pm today. They have not admitted to cutting the cables. My security camera saw their vehicle parked in front of our neighbors house Monday afternoon. They were doing something. - Mike Nencetti
I've had similar problems with Comcast. And we have phone through them. - Bruce Lewis from iPhone
at 9am i received an automated call from TW, stating that the problem was fixed.The automated message tried to close the call so i hung up on. I was at work so I could not tell. I drove home at noon and it was not. - Mike Nencetti
I wont pry too much into Whatever happened Monday, because I think my neighbor had her cable turned off. I have a 4G MIFI I can use in situations like this, well sometimes. - Mike Nencetti
Cable is repaired. Yes it was accidentally cut yesterday. Tech never had to enter the house. - Mike Nencetti
Severed cable. http://twitpic.com/8h0ha9
Yours? - Anika
yes. Time Warner is on their way. - Mike Nencetti

Mikes Nvidia GeForce 8400GS +Dell OptiPlex 390 thread.
This low budget card has blue screened 2 OptiPlex 390 desktops. One Win7 - 32 and one Win7 - 64. Tried latest and previous drivers. Video card had worked fine in a Dell OptiPlex Gx620 for a few months. Spent time today with Dell support to try troubleshooting. Odd thing is it will blue screen on bootup, and then work fine the next boot. I have been working dual screen all after noon. So on my desktop once I get it booted up its fine. - Mike Nencetti
The stop code is 00000116 - Mike Nencetti
I ordered an ATI Radeon HD 5450 card which I'll test on Thursday. Another low budget card. - Mike Nencetti
funny note, my Windows Experience index went from 4.7 to 4.4 by disabling the onboard Intel video driver. I cant do dual screen on it unless one is HDMI, my monitors are VGA and DVI. - Mike Nencetti
updated BIOS and tried every possible option. - Mike Nencetti
the BSOD - "An attempt to reset the display driver and recover from timeout failed'. the stop code is 116, and driver is nvlddmkm.sys file date is 10/15/2011 This happens about 5 seconds after the windows startup screen goes away. the screen is black during those 5 seconds. - Mike Nencetti
That's it for a few days. hopefully the ATI card will behave. I'll use the Nvidia for older computers. - Mike Nencetti
I wish I could look it up but FF search isn't working. I think I had a similar experience with my 8300GS in September '09. The card was essentially dead, and did die in the middle of trying to fix it with driver changes. I relied on the integrated card until I got a replacement. Edit: Thanks to personal archives http://ff.im/8OEq7 - Jimminy, CoG of FF
Thanks Jimminy! This card is currently working. It may just be incompatible with the new Dell. - Mike Nencetti
Installed an ATI Radeon HD5450 - Currently using the drivers from the CD dated 10/1/2009. No blue screen on first boot. This card rocks in that the kit includes the 2 smaller face plates for this small form factor desktop that I have. I'll test it for a few days before I am sure - but it looks like this will be the card we use for any dual screen desktops. - Mike Nencetti
