PC crash

Oh yeah…

That processor overclocks nicely… good choice. I’m not familiar with that motherboard, but make sure it supports overclocks well. The Gigabytes seem to, so you should be fine.

I have the same processor, and it’s humming along at 30% above normal specs quite nicely (around 3ghz) with nothing more than a BIOS change and no extra cooling. I spent money getting a good motherboard, and when I get the time I’ll see how far I can take it.

The spyware may not have been removed properly. Rootkits can be EXTREMELY difficult to remove.

Reboot into safe mode as your normal username. Go Start >> Run and type “regedit”. Go to the keys “HKEY / Current User / Software / Microsoft / Windows / Currentversion / Run” and “HKEY / Local Machine / Software / Microsoft / Windows / Currentversion / Run” and post the results of the left window here.

I’m pretty good at removing them. From the output of that I can tell you whether anything remains with 95% accuracy (there are more locations, but those are the telltales).

Last week

Time for a new post.

Has anyone else noticed how shit the quality of some of the free Siebel 8 update modules are? The audio of one I listened to today was completely unusable. The guy’s accent was hard enough to understand, but the audio was at a bitrate so low that the entire topic was useless.

I’ve never heard such poor audio released to the public. These are paying customers. I wouldn’t release material like that to my customers, and they’re paid a lot more than I am.

Removing trailing spaces in eScript

Hi mate… greetings from Australia

Nice blog… I’ve been developing in Siebel for 9 months so far. Very intensive training and work, but it sure is good to learn a hell of a lot so quickly.

Anyway… looking at this problem quickly using two functions that come to mind – split and replace – shows that they are more problematic in implementation.

Cheers for the elegant solution. A quick question though… how are the jobs over in Europe?

Aligning two environments

If you get stuck with this again, it is possible to use a tool such as this one:

to load LOVs in (or any small set of data – I built a tool like that a while ago and it’s most suited for data in the range of 20-1000 records, which suits LOVs well).
