It is best to have your OS on a separate partition than the rest of your data. This results in less fragmentation and ensures speedy operation of your system. If your hard drive is large enough, then partitioning is probably a good idea for you. Common practice is to have at least three partitions: one ~8GB for the OS, one ~10GB for Documents and other personal files, and whatever is left for programs.

If you want to read the files on your NTFS partiton (used by Windows NT or Windows 2000), I suggest to use this driver: http://www.drdos.net/files/ntfsdos.exe. A few people told me that they had problems using this driver with DR DOS (look at Lineo DR-DOS (4.4) for more detailed information). See similar questions...

Your computer has a disk larger than 512 MB. This version of Windows includes improved support for large disks, resulting in more efficient use of disk space on large drives, and allowing disks over 2 GB to be formatted as a single drive. See similar questions...

No, RADIUS was designed for individual PC use and certain configuration files will not work if the program is stored anywhere but the C: drive. See similar questions...

No. Interestingly, if you use FAT16 with OSR2, and you try to run Compression Agent, you will get an error telling you to install Plus!. Let me know if you can find a workaround other than installing Plus!. My question to Microsoft: Why did you guys put Compression Agent in OSR2, and then disable it in this way? Seems misleading to me to include a component in OSR2 that (on purpose) doesn't work. See similar questions...

In this case, utility programs usage should be avoided, as they do not always provide satisfactory results. If its "As-Failed" condition, you can usually recover your data with the entire directory structure intact. However, NOT RUNNING UTILITY PROGRAMS IS CRITICAL. Do not install new programs or attempt to save data onto the affected drive; this could make the situation worst. See similar questions...

Right click on the drive icon in My Computer or Windows Explorer. Choose properties. You should see a screen like that at right. The "Type:" line should indicate FAT32. See similar questions...

We always use the Linux program fdisk or sfdisk to partition a new hard drive - even for making DOS FAT32 partitions or HPFS/NTFS partitions. The scheme we use depends entirely upon how large the hard drive is, what OS(s) we are installing, how you intend to use the machine, and of course your preferences. After reviewing the hardware in your order, we will make a recommendation allowing for smooth upgrades in the future (keeping your personal files and non-OS software in place).

You may uninstall and re-install VoxPro on any drive or partition that you wish. The only real issue is what happens to the existing user accounts. If you are leaving all the user accounts where they are, you need only copy the two files VP_Config.vpc and VP_Hotkeys.vpc from the old installation folder to the new. When you start VoxPro in its new location, it will see the user configuration data, which is already correct. See similar questions...

Begin the install of OSR2. Proceed until you are asked if you want a startup disk. Answer yes, and follow the instructions. After the startup disk is made, cancel the install. Now you have a bootable floppy with the new version of FDISK, FORMAT, etc, to do with as you see fit. You can also make an OSR2 startup disk if you have: 1) any version of Windows95 installed on your system, 2) the OSR2 CDROM and 3) A floppy disk. See similar questions...

Although facilities for this operation are available on the CD, I have never attempted to do it. Aside from this fact, there are still some good reasons NOT to install "the Hack" on your hard drive. The knx-installer is still available on this CD. Do a Google for more specific and up-to-date instructions applicable to your hardware and situation. See similar questions...

You can use this Live-CD perfectly for most anything a PC can do. (surfing, playing movies or music, watching tv, writing your dissertation, solving problems with your hard drive ...) Installation to the hard drive is much more comfortable and lots faster than running a system off CD. So, lets get going! This How-To is specifically for Kanotix 2005-04 (for older versions refer to: http://wiki.kanotix.net/coma. See similar questions...

NTFS offers a smaller cluster size (0.5) compared to FAT32 (4). This means more space for you. NTFS also allows compression and additional security features. Many people recommend formatting to a NTFS partition rather than converting the drive for speed reasons. You can go to this Microsoft article for more information, and only the pros . Some cons I've heard: Virtually no recovery tools for a faulty NTFS volume. If you backup this isn't a big deal. See similar questions...

There are several factors that determine how many days of digital video a DVR will store. The Hardware configuration is engineered to continue recording after the hard drive is full. Once full, the DVR simply begins recording over the oldest video stored on the hard drive. The Frames per second setting controls the rate of recording, and quality of the image. At 30 fps, thirty digital "snapshots" are recorded per second. See similar questions...

There is no definite answer. This will depend on how much motion activity there is based on pixel changes to field of view. See similar questions...

Where c0 is the controller number. t0 is the target (SCSI ID number) (omit for ATAPI/IDE) d0 is always 0 for SCSI, the drive # for ATAPI/IDE p0 is the partition; DOS is the first partition here /mnt is the mount point You can use the normal UNIX commands to copy files, 'cp', etc., after that to move the data. DOS filenames are in the old 8.3 format (lower case) for Solaris 2.5.1, in long filename format (lower case) for Solaris 2. See similar questions...

We will partition your hard drives however you want. Upon receiving your order, we will review the hardware and operating choices in your system and make a recommendation for your approval or modification. If you let us know how you intend to use your new LAC system in your response to our initial configuration approval request (sent by e-mail), we will work with you to determine an optimal partition scheme.

No. Each partition represents the exact clone of the master disc. They can not be combined or truncated. See similar questions...
