Quote from Mamsmilk

You can just connect the old HD to the new PC
if there's enough S-ATA ports. Downgrading from
the new HD to the old one doesn't makes any sense.

Not quite sure what you're talking about here...downgrading? 😕

If I get a new computer & also get this old one set up for my son, it will be a complete setup for him; I won't be using the old computer with the new computer except to get my data moved from the old comp to the new one.

If your PC has enough S-ATA ports, the ones you use to connect
parts like hard drive to the system, you can attach the old hard drive
to the computer and move all the files from the hard drive to the new hard drive
or keep using the old hard drive.
Downgrading would be tossing the new hard drive away and using the old
hard drive to keep the files, although the old hard drive is probably worse than
the new one. The easist way to get the files from the old hard drive is,
after all, directly plugging it into the new PC. No additional costs or
transfer times. It's a working hard drive after all.

Ah, got it - that's something I'll have to decide on when/if I get a new computer.

I already have a decent-sized external hd from the computer before this one & am not sure I'll really need an additional hd in a new computer.

All I really want is my sound back. (T_T)

Edit - Installed a $20 sound card, and all is good~~ 😀

When I checked my reading list just now some of the series have an asterisk * as part of the name. This is new. Anyone know what it means?

An asterisk (*) denotes series information has been updated within the last 24 hours.

It's new. The almighty Manick has bestowed his omnipotence onto us by altering our very world.

My favorite solution to cleaning tile/hardwood floors: use a Eureka bagless upright vacuum (the sunflower yellow one that's light and small), followed by Swiffer (for the stubborn ones that don't get picked up).

Why don't you just stand on a sheet or towel?
Then, you can just pick it up and shake out the hair on the lawn.

Pretty much this.
I usually just use old newspapers.

Normally, a towel is used when one is particularly lazy. Instead of grabbing one towel for the shoulders, you grab a few more; so, you don't have to reach for the sheet.

I want to find a free program that will let me slice an image into unequal parts, and then save each part automatically. I can, of course, do it the old-fashioned way and crop out each part I want and then save each of those, but I need to do this for several hundred images, so it would be great if there is a program that I can use to do it faster.

I've searched a lot and I've found plenty of nice programs that will split up an image into equal parts (a number of equal columns, rows, or quadrants), but that won't work. For the images I'm using, each part needs to be a different size. I found one program that would let me split into unequal parts, but it costs money... it had a free trial version, but it inserted watermarks, which isn't acceptable for what I'm doing.

Also, I don't want to use the program to cut the image for the sake of making it load faster when it's on a webpage (this seems to be the most popular use of this kind of program...), so I don't care if it saves the HTML tags or not.

If you know of a program like this, please tell me. I'd appreciate it very much.
