[Need help with Windows 7 (can't delete Recycle bin from desktop screen)]

Right click desktop > Personalize > Change desktop icons (in left hand pane) > Uncheck Recycle Bin > Click Ok.

Thats the long way...

cool. thanks man.

[Need help with Windows 7 (can't delete Recycle bin from desktop screen)]

right click on the trash and click the button..

Huh? What button.

My options are:

Open

Empty Recycle Bin

Create Shortcut

Rename

Properties

Which one do I click

[Need help with Windows 7 (can't delete Recycle bin from desktop screen)]

I'll keep this one short and simple, how can I delete the Recycle Bin from my desktop?

[Need help with media folder in Itunes]

yeah but you have to upload your videos FROM a folder already on your computer to itunes. Unless your downloading these videos directly from itunes.

Oh well.

Thanks.

Thank goodness I put a 120 gig partition for Itunes.

[what would cause this?]

lol why?

might have done this before once or twice...

Wait, you deleted the pagefile?!

IDK what it'll do, but I never delete a system file. EVER!

[1in MDF]

now that sounds like work

EDIT: do you use 3/4 mdf or .75???

HAHAHA my sig gotcha chevy! you gotta love the slow moments we all have sometimes.

LOL. yeah.

[1in MDF]

The simplest way I've found of doing it is:

Measure the outside of the box and calculate volume without subtracting wood thickness.

Then, measure the length and width of each panel. Multiply length x width x thickness and divide by 1728. Once you have the volume of all the panels, subtract the total panel volume from the original volume you calculated without factoring in wood thickness.

Or use an online calculator. Your choice.

[new moon breaks first day record]

LOL. One guy in my grade went to see the first one and the next week he said he really like it. Needless to say EVERYONE (including the teachers and his football coach) is ragging on him about it. It's so funny.

[Embedded vids won't show?]

What OS?

And how old?

[Recommendations for new vehicle?]

Pickup with camper shell. They'll get above 18 mpg with the right engines.

[What are bots?]

Don't forget the most important fact, they are nothing more than computers posting the same message over and over again.

[Weird bass trick?]

It's a combination of the air moving and the way it hits you in the face.

I've seen it only once before.

[Does your removeable storage have a virus?]

There's usually a small (tiny, hell, you can't see it without glasses, even if you have 20/20 vision!) tab on the drive. It slides. Use a magnifying glass and look to see if it's in the locked position (has a pic of a closed lock embedded on it).

Trust me, when it's engaged, you can't reformat it for anything.

And thanks for the heads up. Nothing on mine though. My external devices only have 1 computer, Mine!

[Need help with media folder in Itunes]

I want Itunes to automatically put the vids in the correct folder.

I don't mind having to drag and drop, but I'd rather not.

[Need help with media folder in Itunes]

anyone?

[Laptop sound problems]

No specific frequencies. it just does it random when ever music or anything is playing.

In that case, vvvv

i own a computer repair company... we specialize in laptop repair! probably output going out.. i've seen it on some toshiba, and i've also seen some speaker wires coming off the board.. also happens on toshibas.. those things get hot

This.

[Need help with media folder in Itunes]

Is it possible to set 2 media folder locations in Itunes? I want to put my music on one partition of my drive and video's on the other.

Thanks in advance.

[Laptop sound problems]

Ive had a sound problem with my Laptop for a while now.

When playing music it will have loud popping sounds. I first noticed in when i hooked it up to my system in my car to use a tone generator to test things. It does it on the laptop speakers, but harded to notice since its a lower frequency pop, and it does in when i plug an aux cord to other speakers.

anyone know whats wrong?

Sounds like the output might be a pure square wave (way worse than clipping). What frequencies?

[Who here is a linux admin/guru]

If you fail, try again UNTIL you succeed.

Ubuntu is a "beginners" linux as is most liveCD distros. I personally use PcLinuxOS, when I'm not in win7ultimate.

but linux is linux, all commands are the same (as far as I think).

Sorry I couldn't be of any help. Trust me though, after you keep trying you'll figure it out and go, "That was too fracking simple, no wonder I screwed it up".

So you're telling me the average linux user "breaks" 3 installs of the same OS in 2 month.

Yes, I did "break" them. I tried to install some software to turn mine into a PVR, and linux quit and wouldn't boot up after that. A re-install of the OS fixed it, but then it happened again. and again. And it was software that hundreds of people have used many times before and I was the only one to f*** it up.

Why?

Because I fail at Ubuntu.

[Can low voltage do this?]

You'll need to be careful, dropping that low can cause clipping.

[Worthwhile difference between running 3500 at .7 ohm over 1ohm?]

They should be over 1 ohm after impedance rise. The difference is, you should get more power (depending on how much imp. rise you get at each level). I dunno about the change in sq though.

[need help with a math project please (very simple)]

Even though this would hardly ever be accurate. unless you were able to get cabin volume, frequency, vehicle flex and random little things in it, but would still be off

but.. what should get done is have the formula posted for all the little noobies that come on and ask if i got 2 btls on my hifonics 2010, what db do you think ill hit?? they wont think anythin of how it could be wrong hah

LOL.

Unfortunately, that's the problem. I figured it out in my sleep. Basically, you need to include the following:

vehicle interior space, distance between the subs and the mic, number of woofers, cone area, xmax of subs, area of the mic's diaphragm (or whatever it is that measures pressure), area of the opening to the diaphragm (assuming it's in a nearly sealed box with one small hole in it; hard to explain, but it's important), location of the port, port area, internal box volume, objects that might reflect the sound pressure from the mics (seats, possibly dash, etc.), any air leaks (no matter how small), how many air leaks, location of air leaks, how much air moves through the air leaks in a given time, temerature, moisture content (air is easier to compress than water), power going to each sub, and any potential flex.

A lot more than I originally thought.

Thanks for the input though, it helped.

[need help with a math project please (very simple)]

+/- 5dB is the difference between me having a 150 or barely being able to do the 39.9 bass race class so I don't think your formula will be quite as accurate as you think.

still pretty interesting to figure out your own formula... props

Thanks man.

And I know it's not that accurate, but that's the maximum error I'm going to allow myself in the final formula.

I'm going to sleep on it and work some more tomorrow.

thanks for all the replies, they've been helpful.

[need help with a math project please (very simple)]

use my car as a proof

3 18's, 4500wrms, 148.7 db best

theres so much more than cone area and power that figure in to the output. an 8th order can have 15-20db of gain over a sealed box once the transfer function of a car is worked in. even a ported box can make a 10-15db difference.

Cool. I'll try.

No prob. I would be interested in seeing ur formual tho, being a phys/math person i might be able to help....one thing u could do is derive an equation on how much preasure it takes on the diaphram on the mic sensor to create a certain spl level...but the actauly power/cone area to creat that preasure is deff somethign no forumla can explain

I'll have to post a scan of the paper I'm using tomorrow.

Thanks for the help.

[need help with a math project please (very simple)]

lol, u'll be better off to simplify the equation of quantum physics

but good luck with this

Thanks. I needed the laugh.

Oh, and I'm ever closer. My most recent draft of the formula says Meade could hit a 157 sealed up at the dash off of ~ 16kW. A little less than it took him to actually hit that score (according to what I found).
