  • [WinXP SP2] You receive an "Internal Server Error" error message/blank page when you click links on the Windows Update Web site - To work around this behavior, use one of the following methods that is appropriate for your situation. Method 1: Configure the Windows XP SP2 pop-up blocker. Method 2: Configure a third-party pop-up blocker
  • DrinkorDie suspect to be "extradited to US" - New Zealand software pirates risk extradition to the United States following a ground-breaking ruling against an Australian man accused of pirating software, games and music worth up to US$50 million. Mark Kelly, senior associate at Auckland's Simpson Grierson, said the Hew Raymond Griffiths case in Australia confirmed that people based in one country and accused of software piracy could be brought to justice in another under extradition law.
  • Teen hacker controls ebay - German police have arrested a 19 year-old hacker who claims he managed to control the local domain of E-bay. Apparently, the hack happened at the end of August when the teen managed to direct punters on the eBay.de site to a different domain name server (DNS). What is scary is that the hacker is not exactly an expert, and had found the instructions on how to fudge the transfer when he stumbled across a web-page. The teen decided to request a transfer for several sites including Google.de, Web.de, Amazon.de and eBay.de for a laugh and was amazed when it worked.
  • Mathematical breakthrough could bring disaster for ecommerce - Mathematicians are close to solving a 150 year-old theory - and the solution could add up to problems for internet commerce. The Riemann hypothesis, formulated by Georg Friedrich Bernhard Riemann in 1859, would explain the apparently random pattern of prime numbers. Such numbers are the key to internet cryptography and help banks keep customer's credit card data safe and secure. Louis de Branges, a French-born mathematician at Purdue University in the US, has claimed to have proof of the Riemann hypothesis, according to The Guardian.
  • Nickel "nanodots'"could mean tiny hard drives - Nanoscopic dots of nickel that could be used to store terabytes of data in a computer chip just a few centimetres wide have been created by US researchers. Each "nanodot" consists of a discrete ball of several hundred nickel atoms and can have one of two magnetic states. This allows them hold a single bit of information, as a "1" or a "0".
  • Stores slash PSX prices - Japanese retailers have slashed the price of Sony's PVR-cum-games-console, the PSX, by almost 50 per cent in a bid to drum up consumer interest, according to Internet reports. Sony offers two PSX models in Japan, the only territory in which the machine is currently sold. One sports a 250GB hard drive, the other a 160GB unit. To date, the two have retailed for ¥95,000 (£484/$863) and ¥74,000 (£377/$672), respectively. But according to GamesIndustry.biz, citing unconfirmed third-party reports, a variety of Japanese retail outlets have cut those prices to ¥52,900 (£270/$480) and ¥39,800 (£203/$361).
  • Atari To Release Old Games and New Console System - Atari is announcing the re-release of their older games for the PS2 & Xbox. "Atari Anthology" will feature 85 games and is scheduled to go on sale in November at a cost of about $20. They are also talking about releasing a new console called "Atari Flashback", which is a miniaturized version of the 7800 with built in games. It will have 20 games built into it, including "Breakout," "Solaris," "Crystal Castles" and "Battlezone." Flashback will sell for $45 and include a pair of old-school joysticks.
  • Nokia Shrinks 'Brick' Handset to Tap New Markets -  Nokia, the world's biggest handset maker, unveiled on Wednesday a miniature version of its equivalent of the Swiss Army knife it hopes will lure women and less-techie business people.
  • RIM Launches BlackBerry with Revamped Keyboard - The new 20-character keyboard resembles a stretched out telephone keypad combined the traditional QWERTY keyboard used on the original BlackBerry. The design means most of the keys have more than one letter. To compensate for this, the device includes software to guess which words the user is typing.
  • Philips' athletic MP3 player hits the track - Philips and Nike yesterday introduced the Mp3Run - a gadget they believe is the only product on the market that combines music and athletic performance monitoring. Runners strap the Mp3Run to their arm and a Bluetooth-enabled speed sensor to their shoe. The sensor continuously collects data such as speed and distance covered and the Mp3Run's display shows a summary of the performance and delivers an audible summary via the headphones.
  • Fake Taiyo Yuden DVD recordables widely available -  Users on CDFreaks.com's forums report that European online DVD retailers are advertising with very cheap Taiyo Yuden DVD recordables. Taiyo Yuden is known as high quality media and is relatively expensive. CD Freaks visitors searching for bargains reported several cases of media with a Taiyo Yuden media code (TY) that were very cheap but seem not to be produced by the Japanese media manufacturer. Apparently there are companies who are using the TY media code for their discs. The company behind the fake Taiyo Yuden is reportedly a company in Hong Kong called InfoSmart. Hong Kong media is notorious for being cheap and often of bad quality and manufacturered without much quality control.
  • Sony to offer "Controlled Burning Feature" audio discs - This Fall Sony DADC will introduce Controlled Burning to its audio customers. This Digital Rights Management solution gives content-owners the freedom of allowing their end-consumers a limited amount of private copies. Controlled Burning offers a profitable compromise by granting consumers private copies whilst protecting the rights of content-owners. Controlled Burning is a sophisticated technology which allows content-owners to pre-determine how many copies off of everyoriginal may be made. Only the original disc can function as a master. The copies themselves are equipped with key2audioXS copy control, rendering copy attempts unsuccessful.
  • Sony debuts HD handycam - The device, which will be available locally and in the region from mid-November, at an estimated $US4500 ($6500), will allow high definition personal video recordings which can then be shown to full effect only on high definition televisions. The new system uses MPEG2 compression technology to allow the same internal mechanisms as currently used in DV handycams, and even the same media: a 60 minute DV will also hold 60 minutes of high definition material. The HDR-FX1 records and plays back on the HDV1080i specification - the one most widely used in HD broadcasting, giving a HD picture with 1440 x 1080 dots.
  • Lexmark recalls 40,000 laser printers - Lexmark has asked buyers to return a range of laser printer models after "internal reliability testing" uncovered a potential electric shock hazard.
  • HP launch massive storage servers - In terms of system size, HP are offering configurations from 9 disks (1 Tb) to 1,152 disk (165 Tb) using 146 Gb drives, or double that with 300 Gb drives (up to 332 Tb). However, using some smart tech and a bit of magic, the system can be expanded up to 32 petabytes of data, via pooling servers. The system will be available in the first half of 2005.
  • IDF Fall 2004: Day 1 coverage - @ X-bit Labs (WiMAX achievements and IEEE 802.16 wireless standard, new trends in the Digital Home concept and Intel’s dual-core processor architecture) || X600XT AIW and the ATi Theatre Card. Both PCI-E @ Hexus.net || DTCP/IP @ Hexus.net
  • For Intel, the future has two cores - Intel believes that its future lies in dual-core chips, a single piece of silicon with two multiprocessor cores. The company scrapped plans for a faster traditional Pentium 4 in favor of the "two is better than one" approach.  In 2005, Intel will relaase dual-core chips for servers, desktops and laptops, Otellini said. By 2006, the company expects about half of its chips to have such a design, with all future products being designed around multiple cores. As expected, Otellini discussed some of Intel's dual-core plans during his presentation.
  • Vendors launch super-light laptops - Fujitsu Siemens has launched its smallest and lightest notebook, the Lifebook P7010. It squeezes a 10.6in wide screen and keyboard into a box measuring 19.9 x 26.1cm and weighing just 1.3kg. Driven by a 1.1GHz Pentium-M processor, the P7010 will be available this month with prices starting at £1,329 ex VAT. For more ultra-portable laptops, see the group test in PCW's November issue on sale 23 September.
  • ATI to announce X800XT PE PCI Express - The card will be clocked at 520/1120 MHz just as its AGP sister and once it's announced you should be able to buy it. That would be a refreshing change.  At the end of the day ATI don’t want to make the same mistake twice. They don’t want to launch it until it's available, but seriously available. I still don’t remember seeing any NV45 Ultra, 6800 Ultra PCI-E or 6800 GT PCI-E in retail anyway. At this time there is no any Nvidia PCI-E high end counter part that ATI needs to fight against.
  • Dell Inspiron 9100 - Gaming Notebook review - The core of the Inspiron 9100 is based on a Pentium 4 3.4GHz processor and a hefty 1GB of PC3200 DDR SDRAM. This has however been done before by several other companies, so Dell has gone the extra mile and brought out the first notebook with an ATI Mobility Radeon 9800 graphics card. And Dell hasn't skimped on the graphics memory either, with a whopping 256MB fitted.
  • Ultra 512MB PC3200 Memory 2 Pack review - Overall, I'm fairly pleased with the performance of the ULT31022. For the price you would normally pay, this actually surpasses my expectations. This does not mean however that there isn't room for improvement.
  • BFG 6800 OC 128MB review - If you are looking to upgrade and you are sitting on a 5700 or 9600 card, then the 6800 OC may be the ticket that you are looking for. The BFG 6800 OC is a great piece of hardware with top-notch performance. The biggest thing on most people's minds is the price. The BFG 6800 OC can be found in the $300-$350 range. Not exactly cheap, but nowhere near the $450-$550 range the 6800 Ultra and Radeon X800 cards are running at this time.
  • GeForce 6600GT review - In contrast, ATI’s X600 is priced at the same price-point ($199) and only has four pixel pipelines and DDR1. As you’ll see in the benchmarks, NVIDIA clearly is the definitive choice. The first 6600GT’s out of the gate are based on the PCI-Express bus, a move that’s surprising to us given the fact that it doesn’t have the largest install base and still doesn’t have a solution for AMD’s CPUs. NVIDIA should roll out AGP versions soon, but the immediate threat this card poses should not be ignored by ATI.
  • POV FX5500 review - Despite the fact that the FX5500 is not meant to be played by hardcore gamers it still has some great features like the NVIDIA CineFX engine which is fully compatible with the OpenGL API and ofcourse with Microsoft DirectX 9.0 pixel shader 2.0 and vertex shader 2.0. This card also supports(ofcourse) the AGP 3.0 which was first introduced by NVIDIA in the Fall of 2002.
  • Pioneer DVR-108 16X DVD±R Combo Drive review - While it's not the ultimate combo drive (some read and write speeds could have been higher) and the firmware needs an official US update, performance with mainstream (and some high-end) media is great and CD-R/RW features will make the switch from CDs to DVDs as painless as possible.
  • Philips Ultimate Edge 5.1 Soundcard review - The Philips Ultimate Edge has been smartly positioned as a 5.1 soundcard, it shares much of what made the M-Audio Revolution 7.1 a true Audigy competitor, then cut a few dollars from its price tag. If you are into a new soundcard this fall you should seriously take a close look to Philips latest offering.
  • Battlefield Vietnam Tweak Guide - The guide contains descriptions of all the in-game settings, troubleshooting tips, and all known working tweaks designed to ensure that you can run BF:V at its best on your machine.
  • Microsoft Windows Media Player 10 review - Adrian's Rojak Pot has posted a Microsoft Windows Media Player 10 review.
  • Should I Install SP2? - HardCoreWare.net have published their latest article that asks the question "should I Install Windows XP SP2?".
  • Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer V1.2.1 - New version, MBSA 1.2.1, needed for Windows XP SP2 compatibility: Users of Windows XP Service Pack 2 will need to update their MBSA to version 1.2.1 for compatibility with SP2 security improvements. Windows XP SP2 users who are running MBSA 1.2 will be automatically notified when they run the tool from the Start menu with an Internet connection.
  • Longhorn Transformation Pack 7 -  This small piece of software will transform your Windows XP (and SP2) or Windows Server 2003 into the best looking Longhorn port that is available right now, without any extra software.
  • The Xbox Emulator: Cxbx v0.8.0-Pre2 - The new Version 0.8.0 is now able to emulate Turok Evolution!!
  • OSX Emulator PearPC 0.3.1 - This is mainly a maintaince release fixing some wrong/unimplemented keyboard mappings, a JITC bug preventing Java applications to run and a partition table problem. Additionally the BEOS port was updated. Important note: This release fixes an ugly partition mapping bug which prevented PearPC to boot OpenDarwin.
  • Google Toolbar 2.0.114 - This new version adds AutoFill for forms, BlogThis (create a weblog post pointing to the page you are visiting) and Country Search features.
  • Remove Toolbar Buddy 3.0 - Remove Toolbar Buddy (download) is a freeware utility to delete unwanted toolbars and other Internet Explorer add-ons such as buttons, menus and browser helper objects.
  • VirtualDub 1.6.0 Experimental, Build 21540 - VirtualDub (changelog ~ download) is a video capture and processing program. It features fast capturing, process files larger than the 2 gigabyte limit, optimized for linear editing, support for Motion-JPEG, MPEG-1 video and layer 3 audio, real-time and near-realtime video processing, video job queues, and much more.
  • DivXLand Subtitler 1.4.0 - DivXLand Subtitler allows the user to manually subtitle movies and videos while viewing the applied captions on the fly. It includes some features like automatic timing limit, easy caption edition, and offers 2 modes for applying of captions.
  • AnyDVD 3.9.3.6 - AnyDVD (download ~ changelog) is a driver, which descrambles DVD-Movies automatically in the background. This DVD appears unprotected and region code free for all applications and the Windows operating system as well. With AnyDVD's help copy tools like CloneDVD, Pinnacle Instant Copy, InterVideo DVD-Copy, etc. are able to copy CSS protected Movies.
  • Serv-U 5.2.0.0 (shw) - Serv-U (download) is a powerful, easy-to-use, award-winning FTP server created by Rob Beckers. An FTP server uses the FTP protocol to share files across the Internet.
  • WinZip offers fix for security flaw - A fix is now available for a critical security flaw in the popular WinZip file compression tool. WinZip Computing warned last month of a flaw in WinZip, its tool for compressing and decompressing files that runs on the Windows operating system. WinZip versions 3.x, 6.x, 7.x, 8.x and 9.x contain vulnerabilities that could allow a remote attacker to execute malicious code and cause a buffer overflow.
  • Logitech MouseWare SetPoint 2.11 - Logitech have released a new set of MouseWare drivers version 2.11 build 459 for their new Logitech MX 1000 Laser Cordless Mouse. Note: the drivers aren't working with other Logitech mouse products.
  • ForceWare 65.76 Win2000/XP - The Chinese site MyDrivers released a new ForceWare driver. This is the forceware driver that has been used in the GeForce 6600 GT reviews globally. Bare in mind they are not WHQL as Guru3D ripped out the international language files + had to use a modified the .inf (from mobilenvidia) file to make most NVIDIA graphics cards and laptops supported.

For Intel, the future has two cores
wow! i wonder where they got that idea?

xxxx(06:57 PM CEST - Sep,08 2004 )
I don't know, but they were talking about it since Spring of 2003. http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=13243

And actually, I was at a conference in California for work in January of 2003 and they mentioned dual core coming. Ha, i guess you believe it was AMD who thought it up eh.. there are no secrets in the processor world, hate to say.

Sony and their protection.. Hahahahah why these companies waste so much money on a losing battle. But at least I know and I can tell lots of others to stay away from Sony..Anyone supporting increasing the profits of 2 song wonder groups is not my friend. Anyone looking to make sure these people stay wealthy, are not my friends. And, Sony is a joke to believe their security crap will have any effect. Just wasting tech dollars on a losing battle.
