How To Create a Home Network.

-

    Set Up File Sharing

  1. Step 1

    Double-click on My Computer.

  2. Step 2

    Right-click on icons of drives to be shared by network users.

  3. Step 3

    Click Properties.

  4. Step 4

    Click Share As. Enter the appropriate information.

    5. Learn What Hardware Is Needed

  5. Step 1

    Do your homework on the Internet for a basic understanding of the technology. A good place to start is a major search engine like Google or Yahoo!.

  6. Step 2

    Purchase the required hardware and cabling for the type of network you want to use. If the network doesn't yet exist, decide on a network type: for a client/server network, you need a hub to connect the computer to; for a peer-to-peer network, you just need a cable. Then choose the data-transfer protocol (typically Ethernet) for the network you select.

    7. Install Hardware

  7. Step 1

    Install a network interface card (NIC), if your computer or other network devices don't already have them.

  8. Step 2

    Install the "T" (normally supplied with the card) onto the back of the connector on the card.

  9. Step 3

    Attach the network cable to one connector on the "T."

  10. Step 4

    Attach a 50-ohm terminator to the other end if necessary.

  11. Step 5

    Connect the cable to another computer's network card, for a peer-to-peer network; to a network connector or switch, if the network is already set up in a building; or to a hub, for a client/server network.

  12. Step 6

    Restart the computer.

  13. Step 7

    Install the network driver for the network card you installed.

  14. Step 8

    Name the new computer to be networked. Enter a user name and password when prompted. Use information provided by your network administrator, if any, or create your own.

  15. Step 9

    Check to make sure the system is working.

  16. Step 10

    Enable sharing if you wish to share data with other computers on the network (see steps below).

    Thanks so much for this, makes it a lot easier to understand. My friend has recently been interested in customer support solutions and got me thinking about a home network. Do you have any suggestions for people just getting into this? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

XBox 360 Bumper doesn't work.

First review how to open/clean your XBox 360 Controller, here Symptoms: My right bumper is sticking when i push it. My left bumper only works some times. The bumper seems loose or doesn't make the click noise when I push it down. Fixes For Problematic XBox 360 Bumpers. After you take apart the controller using the above guide you will see on the circuit board two white buttons facing forward (next to the left joystick and the other next to the "Y" button). These are the actual buttons that are being depressed when you go to press RB or LB (right bumper, left bumper). First we want to make sure these are cleaned thoroughly and no debris is caught in or around the button. If it is sticky I would use a Q-tip and rubbing alcohol to remove the gunk. After making sure the button is clean, press it down. Do you hear a click ? If you don't that means the button itself is messed up and short of taking it to a repair shop it's done. If it does click, we can cont

POSSIBLE SPOILERS INSIDE MAIN PROJECT We have the official word from Bethesda that they use "some" (SM2.0b implied) shaders that 9x00, and similiar SM2.0 cards, can't run.

First review how to open/clean your XBox 360 Controller, here Symptoms: My stick is flacid, lol. There is no resistance or there is too much. Sometimes I will hit 'bumps' when moving my joystick. My joysticks alternate button doesn't push down or click properly. My joystick moves very slowly or is unresponsive. Fix for All XBox 360 Joystick Issues. After you have taken the controller apart the first thing you want to do as always is clean the joysticks base thoroughly.
