Is this motherboard failure? I blacklisted all of the addresses I could get from memtest, but what's weird is the number of faulty addresses seems to be increasing by the day. I recently got another undebuggable problem like that, popped into memtest and found 9 new faulty addresses that I didn't note down in my previous 8 runs.

Can you just updata a Kitkat phone to a lollipop without having to wait for the Company's update? is it safe?

you cant "just update"
you can switch to rom like CM that is based on android 5
if they made ROM for your phone

Is there a better way to do this type of thing in java/html?
I'm displaying overlays on an image based on the current time in the hour, with 9 different images
is 9 separate if statements the neatest way to do it?
I was going to do switch|case but all the places I'm looking say to use if statements for a range instead of cases

I'm fucking clueless on RAM. I have 2x 4gb Corsair CT51264BA160BJ and want to upgrade. Should I get two more of the same card, mix and match or get completely new cards?

>>56190384
1. very likely you dont need to upgrade
2. its available cheaply, so no reason to go for something, assuming you have 4 slots for ram

remember you are buying DDR3 that is already depricated

>>56190405
>2. its available cheaply, so no reason to go for something, assuming you have 4 slots for ram

fix:

2. its available cheaply, so no reason to go for something else, assuming you have 4 slots for ram

>>56190384
Might as well get the same one if they're not above the average price

>>56190415
It's currently sitting on a price tag of £14. I'm just unsure if there is any point upgrading, because it feels like I should as it's currently sitting at 40% usage with 3 tabs and steam open

>>56190440
That doesn't really mean anything
If you're actually running out of memory then it might be worth it but idle RAM usage isn't really indicative.

Anyone know how to make a batch script in Windows wait for one command to finish before running the next ?

I'm trying to make a script that uses imagemagick's mogrify command to convert a bunch of images, and then delete the originals. I've verified that both of my commands work on their own, but when I put them in a .bat file the images are deleted before mogrify finishes.

mogrify -format jpg -quality 95% -path "W:\Dropbox\Public\overwatch" *.bmp
del /s /q /f *.bmp

I did google a bit, but found like 10 different answers and couldn't find one that works. Anyone ?

>>56190578
http://serverfault.com/a/245394

>>56190578
irfanview is really good for batch image conversion/resizing and stuff if you need it in future

>>56190578
switch to powershell
especially for small shit like this
to get accustom to it, then later if you will need something bigger you will have powerful tool...

>>56190607
>recommending irfanview instead of imagemagick
the fuck anon, are you high

>>56190589
Thanks !
But it turned out that % needs an escape character when run in a .bat file, and that's why it didn't work. I solved the problem by doing this instead:

mogrify -format jpg -quality 95%% -path "W:\Dropbox\Public\overwatch" *.bmp
del /s /q /f *.bmp

I am dumb. Now I'm a little less dumb.

>>56190613
I think I'd prefer to use WSL for bigger things, really.

>>56190607
Nigga you dumb.

>>56190674
>I think I'd prefer to use WSL for bigger things, really.

wsl?
google says - Windows Subsystem for Linux?
yeah, I dont think you would be much help with registry thinkering and active directory things...

>>56190625
never tried imagemagick before, I'll note it down for next time
I just use irfanview because thats what I view my images in anyway

>>56190674
>Nigga you dumb.
yeah sorry
not paying attention

also does anyone know what format I should be using in java/html for this to work?
I want the [i] to be looped
e.g. inner0, inner1, inner2

for(i = 0; i < 10; i++){
                document.getElementById("inner"+i).innerHTML = ""

I'm just trying to clear all the elements

>>56190701
And ?

While WSL may not be able to interact with the registry, it is certainly able to interact with Windows' file system. This gives me access to the same Linux/UNIX tools, that I'm used to on my servers/laptop, on my Windows 10 machine.

Powershell is a good tool that has its uses in registry tinkering and suchlike, but WSL can handle most general purpose operations just fine.

>>56190578
ideally you want to delete the original only if the conversion program exits successfully
programs often return an "exit code", where "0" means no error, and anything else being some kind of error

pic related

>>56190762
it gives you nothing more than batch files
and just simple task as installing 7zip and changing settings in registry will become pain in the ass

>>56191651
Should I try disconnecting the gpu and connecting the monitor to the motherboard to try the integrated graphics instead?

I have a few questions :
1. Is it worth to wait and see what the new AMD/Intel processors are going to be, or should I just buy an i7 6700 now?
2. Can I use the i7 6700 without a Z motherboard?
3. Does CUDA help with After Effects & Cinema 4D rendering speeds? I've been an ATI & AMD Graphics Card user all my life so I have no clue.
4. What's a good CPU Cooler below 100USD(can be air and water) that has a maximum height of 148mm?

Cheers.

Regarding MBR on linux.
It's all the same for different OS, Right?

>>56192146
chroot into your system and run

grub-install /dev/sdz

(change sdz to suit)

>>56192146
>MBR
>an arch based OS?
you boot arch from iso

you mount your system partition in to mnt
then chroot in and reinstall grub

arch-chroot /mnt
grub-install --recheck /dev/sda
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

i need to get something my parents could use for as long as possible

do you all think the optiplex 790 small form is a reliable choice? they come with i5 2nd gen, i am thinking of swapping out ram with 8gb and putting in a spare cheap ssd I have with ubuntu

one of these units goes for $160 on ebay

Should i take a 40 aud loss to swap my gigabyte z170n wifi for an asus z170 i pro gaming? Im thinking of swapping because of the increased abilit to overclock my i5 6600k, and im hoping it will behave better with my m2 950 pro. Plus usb 3.1 is always a plus

>>56192295

>>56192317
i know how to build a PC of course, but would it be worth it to buy a million parts if I'm trying to come up with a budget solution?

>>56192306
for $40 it sounds pretty nice
I think thats like $15 in us dollar moneys

but dont expect any real changes
no your ssd wont go faster, and no you wont be able to OC 300MHz more

>>56192107
It might be a weirder problem.
It didn't work before either. It always froze and shut down shortly after getting into windows.

>>56192237
>>56192261
Ok, why chroot is important in this?
Isn't the MBR is the first bits of the HDD?
Or because it miss up the GRUB as well?

yes, because you get reliability of parts you choose

and its like 6 components

>>56192384
>Isn't the MBR is the first bits of the HDD?
yes, but those first bits need to tell the computer where to find the rest of grub
how can you generate those bits without a program that is running in the context of where grub actually is?

>>56192453
it's writing grub stage1, the bootsector isn't large enough to fit the entirety of grub, so the rest is stored in stage2
stage1 simply runs stage2

if you've had problems with booting before, you've probably seen the test "stage1" and "stage2" before in passing

I got an imminent hard drive failure notice earlier in the year and so far it's still going.

add(1,2) evaluates the function regardless of whether it's assigned to a variable or not. lambda: 1+2 defines a function, whether it's assigned to a variable or not.

So the first two lines, a == 3. In the final, a is a function where a() == 3

OK

So I am back again today with the same issue
I am currently on WIndows 10 and want to downgrade to 8.1
I have a USB and a Disk with 8.1 on it but can't boot from either of them
Some sources say I have to go to the UEFI Settings via advanced options in Windows 10, but there is no option to for them there as you can see in that picture

Other sources say I can go to BIOS and boot from CD or USB but there is no option for that either
When I enter BIOS I am completely missing options that are in the pic related
My don't have any options to boot from CD or USB I could only set the boot priority of Optical Drive, Hard Disk, and External Drive and changing those around seemed to do nothing

I can take pictures of my BIOS if anyone is actually willing to help

Windows 7 obviously has different drivers than Windows 10. You can't expect them to work interchangably. If you don't cannot get the drivers via simple Windows Update, then go to the website of the hardware vendor and manually download and install the drivers.

Onboard sound cards are horrendous. With mine everything coming out of the headphones would also get to the mic input. I don’t have thins anymore with a DAC.

>>56197978
Shitty "computer speakers" have a shitty amp inside them. It's what connects to the pc/sound card. Passive speakers just have bare wires coming out of them, no plug or anything. An amp or receiver clamps onto those wires and powers the speakers.

The cheapest worthwhile standalone amps will be $20 - $30 and maybe not as good as the DTA-1. I have a Lepai, and it's too noisy to have on when not playing stuff. And the included power supply doesn't have a UL, or even fake CE marking, so it could cause housefires. Other /g/ users seem to like Lepai amps, so maybe I just got a lemon.

Some places to look for bookshelf speakers are Amazon, Parts-Express, and Monoprice.

>>56199650
Because IBM couldn't make the G5 cool and low power enough for a laptop and by the time a company that could stepped forward Apple was already mid-transition to Intel.

Should subtitles be in bold?

Also is there a good formatting guide to subtitles, how to make them most pleasing to an audience? I'm using Aegisub and unsure of what settings are best, which font, what height and so on.

Ok so I came from outside and checked on my PC - there was some strong heat coming from it - so instinctively I've checked the video card.

Temps were 50 degree + in stand by.

I've shut the pc down, opened it again and checked video card - done some stress test and it stays in 75 degree in stand by.

I've activated integrated one from processor - switched the cable, disabled the main video card from device manager.

So technically I run from a different one and the main card should be offline - not sure if it is tho.

The card is gtx 770 2gb It's still in warranty
but on
http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-770/specifications

pace it says maximum gpu temperature is 92 degrees..

I know the state in which the card is now - it's not normal since 30 degrees or less was what I got in stand by and 70 while gaming or bench-marking.

Should I still send it into warranty just to try my luck and otherwise what should I do? Try to fix it myself ( dunno how yet but could learn ) or sell it for as much as other used cards sell for?

Okay so an i5 then. Not much of a gamer or near"gamer" . I just want a very reliable small cute build without crazy power to it. even a 960 would be more than enough for my needs but the price of them hard to argue with 1070

>>56199855
Then get an i3 - 6100 because it's a very smart option for a non-gamer I would even just run on its integrated gpu as a non gamer.

But if you will pair an 1070 to it - it's simply too much, an pointless over kill.

I was taking my microwave (RIP friend) to the electronic recycle place and some dude dropped off a computer case. A cooler master, a black one (fuck me I have no idea what im talking about), I asked if I could have it and he was all yeah sure muh son computers in college etc.

Looks like the black plates on the front are detachable, only one remains. Has a dvd drive that looks like it matches the case. Inside is barren besides that.

So can I like buy parts and put a computer in this? And how would I start? Why do computers need to be in "computer cases" anyway couldn't you just build them anywhere?

>>56199897
Okay yeah just looked up the 6100. I probably don't even need a GPU desu. Or could just say fuck GPU all together and get an i5. guessing a 430 -500 PSU would be all needed and one good CPU fan. Not thinking of see through side so not a big deal if nocturn a looks ugly or not.

i have a 16gb kingston datatraveler flash drive which when plugged in on my win7 laptop gives the "cant format, the disk is write protected" error
today i tried it on my old windows 98se pc and i could actually read the contents just fine, but again without permission for writing
so my question is: is there a way to fix this? like set its permissions somehow so it works? i thought it was completely dead because often the dead ones give that error and wont format, but i managed to read it and im interested in trying to repair it somehow
any help will be appreciated

Don't flat out castrate me but I'm in the process of learning C and figured I would try one of the simple programming challenges that everyone does. Fizzbuzz. Well this is my code and it looks like it will spit out the correct Fizz Buzz and Fizzbuzz but it also adds the number after it where did I go wrong.

#include <stdio.h>

main()
{
    for(int i = 0; i <= 100; ++i){
        if(i % 3 == 0 && i % 5 == 0)
            printf("FizzBuzz\n");
        if(i % 3 == 0)
            printf("Fizz\n");
        if(i % 5 == 0)
            printf("Buzz\n");
        else
            printf("%d\n", i);
    }
}

lads, what's a good reliable vpn service

>>56200319
use "else if"s for the second and third if statements

>>56200363
Thank anon, now why did that work over the if statements?

>>56200384
*thanks

When using torrents, why do I not need to open a port on my router (port forwarding) so other people can download from me?
Shouldn't it be needed?

>>56200427
Because the port you use for torrenting is usually open.

>>56200384
when it prints FizzBuzz or Fizz, the loop doesn't exit.
instead, it goes through the rest of the if statements, so when you have i == 15, the loop prints FizzBuzz\nFizz\nBuzz\n, and when you have i == 3, it prints Fizz\n3\n, and so on for larger numbers.

>>56200384
The way you wrote it, the else will only execute if the last if statement fails.
If you used else if, then the else would execute if all other failed.

Sorry if I'm not explaining it properly.

>>56200480

how do you close the first if statement?

>>56200449
But how does my router know to forward it to my computer and not to other ones?

How do I check which drivers I have installed?

>>56200514
NAT & UPNP.
Asks to open the port and send all the shit to your computer.
Look into how the fuck everyone can seem to share ports 80 and 443 all the time for a more general understanding.
Networking is magic!

>>56200583
I'd probably help if we knew what OS you were using.

It's hyperbole, you autistic fuck.

I want to be able to use my laptop heavily at university and was wondering if I could use my old 10000mah external battery with a type c cable to keep my laptop going? If I can't any ideas?

>>56200507
With the right-brace character: }, or in your case, just a ;

You might be asking about else-conditionals though, which aren't really closing the if, so much as doing another if so long as the last if wasn't used.

I'm looking for something like true crypt to encrypt or password protect a drive. i need something that is usable on any OS (Windows, Linux, Mac)

I'm buying a new PC and I have some extra dosh so I'm thinking of just spending extra to get it built for me with ibuypower or something online.

Is there anything I should care about besides the wasted money? Do they do a good job with shipping and all?

i dunno if you guys can help with this but im trying to find out how to move a video from the videos app to the camera roll on my iphone

i have ifile but have no idea where the video even is

>>56200982
Build it yourself, is better in the long run.
Its not that hard.

They probably will do some shitty cable management.

How do I properly research a problem related to programming?

My IDE returns a bad syntax error, and I've copied the formatting from the internet page I'm learning from, so I have no idea what the problem is.

When I look up the error, they all talk about ideas and concepts I haven't come across yet. What's the best site a self-teaching beginner can learn from?

Also, what are some helpful tips for someone self-learning? Would making simple programs for fun be the best way of practice, or should I consistently challenge myself to make difficult material everytime?

What's the exact error and the circumstances it's under?

Yes.

If I'm going to buy a secondhand macbook pro is there any recommendation for which model/year of production to look for specifically?

So I installed windows 7 from a torrent recommended to me on here.
What are the chances that I'm being spied on.
I want to switch to mint/ubuntu, but linux is fucking shit when it comes to watching anime. Where the fuck is my MPC-HC + MadVR?

>>56200821
You need to find things that aren't as specific to do that with, anon. Great idea, shit tier execution. I'd give it 5/10.

>>56201527
Check the SHA-1 or SHA-256 of the iso you downloaded and whatever you used to crack it.

If its the same than the one in google based in your windows version you are safe.
Same for your activator.

>>56201527
Also, use MPC.

It turned out to be parantheses placement.
The rest of the post still apply.

Sorry for the late response, I kept at it.

Looking at getting a new psu. Thinking about the seasonic m12ii 620 or the rosewill quark 550. Seasonic is bronze and the rosewill is a platinum. Both about the dance price. Just looking at advice.

Other than a better CPU and GPU, what im missing buying a T400 rather than a T420?

Do I have to use all of the screws to fasten my motherboard down? I noticed there were metal contacts around all the screw holes, and didn't know whether they were to protect the actual board or as a safety feature- connecting circuits and the like.

>>56202330
They are as a safety measure.

>Use all screws
Yes.
>Hard
Not so hard, just enough to hold it.

relative to the picture, pull it straight up
just be gentle with it and wiggle it a bit as you pull, they're not strong components
