Received wisdom has it that native USB 2.0 support is not possible in win98se. However, I'm intrigued by some of the utilities offered with some socket 754 motherboards. One I downloaded from opendrivers today seems to suggest that /providing/ the mobo itself offers USB2.0 support, then, this driver will enable win98se to offer native USB2.0 support. At least that's my theory. What do you think? Files concerned are ousb2.inf ousb2hub.sys ousbehci.sys They are all from USB2W9XME009.zip. And orangeware corp is in the Properties box. Please help: I have OrangeWare installed, ISTM, correctly: the 'PCI Class USB 2.0 Enhanced Host Controller', as well as the 'USB 2.0 Root Hub Device' show in Device Manager as OK. But both my USB 2.0 capable devices were first hooked to that system BEFORE I installed the OrangeWare. Windows 98 SE memorised them and they still connect to the USB OHCI, giving USB 1.1 speeds:=( I think I shoud remove all trace of these devices from the system so they can be redetected and, hopefully, 'captured' by OrangeWare. ![]() So my question is: how do I remove the devices ( one external HD enclosure plus one 'key ring' flash memory device) so that Windows 98 loses all memory of them? 1st option: physically hook devices - open Device Manager - 'remove' the devices there. Will it suffice? 2nd option: Registry chirurgy. I'm not scared, but need instructions! Thank you very much in advance, this has to be a life saver! ![]() Feb 11, 2005 Experts Exchange > Questions > Using a usb memory stick with Win98SE. How to enable USB. Assure you have USB drivers installed on Win98SE. A few months ago I formatted my hard disk and re installed win98SE. I was using a USB mouse but through the install setup would not detect it (I had to use a ps2 port). This gave me many problems with. Spdy_Gonzales Apr 1, 2001, 12:17 PM. Turn on the USB support on the system board setup. Edited March 9, 2006 by Ninho. 'You are right. As long as the mainboard supports the USB2 standard, you're set. The 'OrangeWare' drivers you mentioned are generic-like driversets. They provide USB2 support for boards that didn't have USB2 drivers included but still supported USB2. 'I'm currently using USB2 drivers provided by OrangeWare as well. Only way to get the USB2 support on my mainboard under Win98.' ---------------------------------- Thanks for the confirmation. I guess that once i've installed win98/SE (with Win98 Lite/Pro) on my new PC, and configured it with various updates, one goes into the system (win + break keys) and update drivers for USB hub? This will replace the MS USB drivers with the Orangeware ones. Is that correct? I think this fact - of support for USB 2 under win98/SE - ought to be more generally known. I'd guess a lot of people have 'upgraded' because they thought otherwise. All and any of you who think they have the OrangeWare drivers supporting their MoBo's USB 2.0 ( not any add-on USB 2 card), can you please provide details? ![]() And first of all, check under Device Manager to see that the actual USB 2 capable devices are shown as connected to the Orange EHCI host, not to one 1.1 OHCI or UHCI host controller? In my case the OrangeWare drivers installed and do 'handle' the USB 2.0 host in a way (I'm saying this because windows doesn't pop-up asking for drivers at launch time) BUT any USB 2 device is still in fact hooked to the 'old' USB 1.1 system:-( Browsing the developpers' section of the OrangeWare site ISTM their drivers are intended not to work with unsupported (=unpaid for) devices. Please please Gurus help clear this mess. Sorry Ninho, now I get a better picture of your problem. The fact that you have 'PCI Class USB 2.0 Enhanced Host Controller' as well as the 'USB 2.0 Root Hub Device' as OK in your Device Manager is a sign that OrangeWare driver is correctly installed and that your system is now USB 2 capable. The problem is, unless you update it with Native USB Drivers from Maximum Decim, Win98SE needs a driver for each and every USB device you connect. Let me guess, you must have installed before the drivers for your external HD enclosure and your 'key ring' flash memory device, is that right? In that case you must first uninstall the drivers for those devices, and if your devices are USB 2 capable, then reinstall their drivers for USB 2, when you bought the device, usually it comes with drivers for USB 1.1 and USB 2. Certainly the OrangeWare must have been installed first. But better still, I would recommend (as I did) that you try the Native USB Drivers from Maximum Decim, that you can find in the sticky part of the 'Unofficial Win98 SE Service Pack' in this forum, with that you will not need additional drivers anymore for most of the USB devices. Sorry Ninho, now I get a better picture of your problem. No need to be sorry. But I have tried all you are suggesting, as reported in the other thread. The fact is, the OrangeWare do not want to hook any device, even after nuking & reinstalling all in the proper order. It turns out the OrangeWare drivers were never intended to be freely used by us mere mortals as a replacement for non existing MS drivers, instead they are meant to work only with approved hardware (read: paid license). They'll work mostly with add-on USB 2 on PCI adapters. The hardware ID of supported ware being encoded somewhere inside the driver code AIIUI. If I understand clearly what you have got is such an add-on USB 2 card with, probably, a NEC chip and this is supported by OrangeWare. I suppose I could buy such an adapter if I needed USB 2 on Win 98 SE badly.

This means you have an Android or iOS device that you’ve purchased from Sprint, and would like to use with our service. If you purchased your device from any carrier other than Sprint, unfortunately you would not be able to activate it as a BYOD. Our service is powered by the Sprint network and that relationship allows us to accept their devices, to use with our plans and services. If you do not have a compatible device to BYOD, please visit our to purchase a device, that you will be able to use with our free service! What does 'Locked' mean? ![]() This means the device cannot (and has not) been used on any carrier besides Sprint. Usually, devices are locked when you purchase them on a contract, directly from a major carrier (like Sprint). After 2 years your contract is over, but the device is still locked to the carrier. Since the contract has expired, you can contact the carrier to have them unlock the phone, if you prefer to use the phone with another carrier. Since the contact is expired, you can also cancel your account with that carrier, if you like. But for BYOD activation with FreedomPop, we will need for that device to remained locked to the Sprint network. The device must also be free of any existing plans or service. This means you do not currently have a service plan with Sprint, or any other carrier like Ting or Straight Talk. Please Note: • If you brought a device that you never activated, that does not automatically mean your phone is 'locked'. • iCloud locked phones and Sprint locked phones are two different things. If you buy a phone that is 'iCloud' locked, that means you won't be able to get pass the home screen. The device may even be lost or stolen!

This is because the device cannot be active with an account, in order to activate it as BYOD, but to port your old phone number over, your old account must remain open. To resolve this, simply speak to your previous carrier to have them disconnect your phone service, but make sure they do not cancel the account. This can be arranged by speaking to the customer service department with your previous carrier. Once your phone number is ported over to us, the account can then be closed.

What's Hot at TechRepublic • • • • VBA's ActiveWorkbook property refers to the workbook with the focus. The active workbook may or may not contain the code that's referencing the active workbook, which is an important distinction. It's perfectly acceptable to use this property to reference the active workbook from code inside the active workbook. However, it's invaluable when referencing the active workbook remotely. For example, after passing data to an active workbook, you'd probably want to save that workbook, which is a simple task for the ActiveWorkbook property. The following procedures use the ActiveWorkbook property to close the active workbook: Sub CloseActiveWBNoSave() 'Close the active workbook without saving. ActiveWorkbook.Close False End Sub Sub CloseActiveWBWithSave() 'Close the active workbook and save. ActiveWorkbook.Close True End Sub Sub CloseActiveWB() 'Close the active workbook. 'Let user choose whether to save. ActiveWorkbook.Close End Sub Of course, you could just as easily combine all three into a Select Case statement and use a single function to pass a conditional argument that specifies which save to execute. Figure A Function GetActiveWB() As String GetActiveWB = ActiveWorkbook.Path & ' ' & ActiveWorkbook.Name End Function Figure A. Use the ActiveWorkbook property to return the active workbook's full path and filename. ![]() 2: Reference the workbook that's currently running code VBA's ThisWorkbook property is similar to the ActiveWorkbook property, but whereas ActiveWorkbook evaluates the workbook with the focus, ThisWorkbook refers to the workbook that's running the current code. This added flexibility is great because the active workbook isn't always the workbook that's running code. Figure B Function GetThisWB() As String GetThisWB = ThisWorkbook.Path & ' ' & ThisWorkbook.Name End Function As you can see, HumanResources.xls is the active workbook, but the function is in a workbook named 0908002.xls. Take advantage of ThisWorkbook's flexibility when you need to refer to the workbook running code when the active workbook isn't the workbook running code. 3: Reference workbooks in the Workbooks collection The Workbooks collection contains all the open Workbook objects. Using the Workbooks property, you can refer to open workbooks. For instance, the following subprocedure populates a list box in a user form with the names of all open workbooks: Private Sub UserForm_Activate() 'Populate list box with names of open workbooks. Dim wb As Workbook For Each wb In Workbooks ListBox1.AddItem wb.Name Next wb End Sub The resulting user form, shown in Figure C, displays a list of open workbooks. By referencing the Workbooks collection, you can reference all the open workbooks without hard-coding a single workbook name. Figure C Use the Workbooks collection to reference open workbooks. Listing all the open workbooks is an easy enough task, thanks to the Workbooks collection. However, opening all of the workbooks in a specified folder is a bit harder, as you can see in the following subprocedure: Sub OpenAllWB() 'Open all workbooks in specified folder. Dim i As Integer With Application.FileSearch.LookIn = 'C: Examples'.FileType = msoFileTypeExcelWorkbooks 'There are wb's If.Execute > 0 Then For i = 1 To.FoundFiles.Count Workbooks.Open (.FoundFiles(i)) Next i 'There are no wb's Else MsgBox 'There are no workbooks to open', vbOKOnly End If End With End Sub This task isn't a referencing one in the true sense, but it shows the power of the Workbooks collection. In this case, the code doesn't cycle through the Workbooks collection; it just takes advantage of one of the collection's methods — specifically, the Open method. Closing all the open workbooks is a bit easier than opening them, as the following procedure shows: Sub CloseAllWB() 'Close all open workbooks. Workbooks.Close End Sub To see a collection's many methods and properties, press F2 in the VBE to launch the Object Browser. 4: Explicitly reference a workbook If you know the name of the workbook you want to reference, an explicit reference might be the most efficient method. Although an explicit reference is easy, it does require a stable situation. If the name of the workbook changes, but the possibilities are known, you can still use an explicit reference by passing the workbook's name. For example, the following subprocedure activates an open workbook, as determined by the passed argument, wbname: Function ActivateWB(wbname As String) 'Open wbname. Workbooks(wbname).Activate End Function To execute it, you simply pass the name of the workbook you want to activate as follows: ActivateWB('HumanResources.xls') (You must include the.xls extension.) The following function also uses the Workbooks property to determine whether a specific workbook is currently open: Function IsWBOpen(wbname As String) As Boolean 'Open workbook. Dim wb As Workbook On Error Resume Next Set wb = Workbooks(wbname) IsWBOpen = Not wb Is Nothing End Function If wbname is open, the function returns True. When not open, the function returns False. These procedures also rely on the Workbooks property, but instead of cycling through the collection, they specify a workbook by name. 5: Reference workbooks by index Perhaps the least stable method for referencing a workbook is to use its index value. Excel assigns index values to workbooks as you open them. The first workbook opened has an index value of 1, the second workbook opened has an index value of 2, and so on. Index values pose a special problem because they change when you delete a Workbook object from the collection; index values slip down a notch, accordingly. For example, suppose you have three open workbooks with the following index values: ExcelStatisticalFunctions — 3 0908002.xls - 2 HumanResources.xls - 1 If a particular task depends on all three workbooks always being open, using the index values can generate mistakes. Excel Training - Select and Activate a Worksheet or Chart Sheet in Excel with VBA. HD Video Tutorial for Microsoft Office. In this data tutorial, we'll explore one simple example of using VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) in Excel to extract values from one worksheet. Thus to begin our script, we need to select the appropriate worksheet named Sales, and then using that selected object, narrow our selection by grabbing the specific cells. For instance, the statement Workbooks(1).Activate activates HumanResources.xls as long as it's open. If you close HumanResources.xls, ExcelStatisticalFunctions and 0908002.xls both move down a notch: ExcelStatisticalFunctions becomes 2 and 0908002.xls becomes 1. As a result, the above statement activates 0908002.xls, not HumanResources. That may or may not be what you want. ![]() ![]() ![]() Using index values to reference workbooks isn't wrong, but you must understand its inherent behaviors to avoid errors that can be difficult to troubleshoot. 6: Reference the active sheet If you don't specify an object qualifier, the ActiveSheet property defaults to the active sheet in the active workbook. For instance, to retrieve the name of the active sheet, you'd use a function similar to the following: Function GetActiveSheet() As String GetActiveSheet = ActiveSheet.Name End Function This property is read-only; you can't use it to activate a sheet. 7: Reference Worksheet objects The Worksheets collection contains all the sheet objects in a workbook. Using a simple For Each loop, you can cycle through the collection. For example, the following code populates a list box control with the names of all the sheets in the active workbook: Private Sub UserForm_Activate() 'Populate list box with names of sheets 'in active workbook. Dim ws As Worksheet For Each ws In Worksheets ws.Select ListBox1.AddItem ws.Name Next ws End Sub The Sheets and Worksheets collections both contain Worksheet objects, but the Sheets collection contains both worksheets and chart sheets. 8: Explicitly reference sheets Use the Worksheets property to explicitly reference a sheet. For example, use this type of reference to delete a specific sheet as follows: Function DeleteSheet(shtname As String) 'Delete shtname. Application.DisplayAlerts = False Worksheets(shtname).Delete Application.DisplayAlerts = True End Function 9: Reference sheets by index Index values come in handy when you don't care about specific sheets, but only their number or order. Granted, that's not going to be a common task, but occasionally, referencing by index values can come in handy. The following procedure adds and deletes sheets based on the number of sheets you want: Function ControlSheetNumber(intSheets As Integer) 'Add or delete sheets to equal intSheets. Application.DisplayAlerts = False 'Delete sheets if necessary While Worksheets.Count > intSheets Worksheets(1).Delete Wend 'Add sheets if necessary While Worksheets.Count Worksheets.Add Wend Application.DisplayAlerts = True End Function Use caution when executing this function because it deletes the first Sheet object in the collection, even if that sheet contains content. It simply adds and deletes sheets, depending on the value you pass. This function is useful when creating new workbooks programmatically. 10: Refer to a sheet's code name property Code that refers to a Worksheet object by the name on the sheet's tab runs the risk of generating an error. That's because you must remember to update the code when you change the sheet's name. Not only is that a lot of trouble, users are apt to change a sheet's name. One way to safeguard code that refers to specific sheets by name is to use the CodeName property. The code name is the sheet's default name, which Excel assigns when you create it — Sheet1, Sheet2, and so on. Changing the sheet's name, as displayed on the sheet's tab, does not change its code name, as you can see in Figure D. The names in parentheses are the sheet names (as shown on the sheet tabs). Notice that the default names, the code names, remain the same even if you change the sheet's name. Figure D A sheet's code name property is stable; its sheet name is subject to change. To change a sheet's code name, use the (Name) property, as shown in Figure E. You must use the Visual Basic Editor (VBE), as you can't change this property programmatically. There are two similar properties, so don't confuse them. The Name property (without parentheses) toward the bottom of the properties list represents the name Excel displays on the sheet tab. (Code name values must start with a letter character.) Figure E Change the code name using the VBE. Check out 10 Things.

With Compiz Fusion you can use beautiful 3D effects like wobbly windows or a desktop cube on your desktop. ![]() ![]() This document comes without warranty of any kind! I do not issue any guarantee that this will work for you! I have read several questions regarding how to fix an already enabled desktop cube or the problems it had in 11.04. But in 11.10, how can I correctly enable desktop. 1 Preliminary Note I have tried this on a desktop computer with an NVIDIA GeForce 8200. It should work the same way with all other NVIDIA graphics cards. 2 Enabling The NVIDIA Driver To use 3D effects on an NVIDIA graphics card, we need the proprietary NVIDIA driver which we can install from the Additional Drivers tool. ![]() The Additional Drivers tool can be started from Administration > Additional Drivers: The Additional Drivers tool should tell you that there are NVIDIA graphics drivers available for your system - select the recommended one. To install it, click on Activate. You will be asked to type in your password afterwards. The NVIDIA driver is now being downloaded and installed: The Additional Drivers tool should now tell you that a system restart is required to activate the driver. Click on Close to leave the Additional Drivers tool and then reboot the system: After the reboot, when you go to the Additional Drivers tool again, you will see the message This driver is activated but not currently in use. This is what we do to solve the problem: 3 Adding The ubuntu-x-swat ppa To sources.list Open the Terminal ( Menu > Terminal) and type in sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list Since you are now using the root user, you will be asked to type in your password. Add the following two lines to the opened sources.list: deb natty main deb-src natty main Now save the file and go back to the Terminal. 4 Import Key Back in the Terminal, type in the following command: sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com AF1CDFA9 Again, you will be asked for your password. During this or the following steps, you may be asked to confirm your wish to proceed with your actions. In that case, type Y and press Enter. After the import is complete, type the following commands: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade Reboot after you have completed these steps. After the reboot, you will still get the message This driver is activated but not currently in use in the Additional Drivers tool, but the NVIDIA driver should now work. 5 Install compiz-plugins-extra Enter the Synaptic Package Manager and install the compiz-plugins-extra package. 6 Configure Compiz Fusion Now open the CompizConfig Settings Manager: Select General Options.and open the Desktop Size tab.
