The Power of Computer Networking
It seems as if almost everything we own somehow has a computer of its own. Our cars, watches, music players, and even our homes have computers in them. What’s convenient is that all of these can be connected through computer networking. There are a number of types of computer networks. Some of them are larger than others, but all have their own functions.
Computer networking: personal area network
This type of computer networking includes devices such as scanners, printers, and webcams. These are all devices that are connected to your own computer, and are controlled by it. Because of the number of devices that you can connect to your computer, it has become difficult to manage all the wires that are flying around. It’s great that there have been a lot of advances in wireless technology. This saves a lot of space, and the hassles of wires as well. A lot of devices now have infrared and Bluetooth technology so that you are no longer burdened by tangling wires.
Computer networking: local area network
A local area network (LAN) is a number of computers that are connected within the vicinity (room, office, building, house, etc.). They are connected through the use of a LAN cable and are able to exchange information with each other. An example of this is the security system of a building. For example, a museum could have a number of security cameras, security sensors, alarms, and monitors that are all connected into one network.
Another great use for LAN is for gaming. A lot of gaming enthusiasts have been raving about multiplayer games through LAN. This way, they are able to play with a number of players, in the same game, at the same time. This has created a whole new experience with gamers because they are able to interact with 20 to even 50 players at a time. It has become an increasingly social activity because they are no longer limited to playing by himself or herself or with one other player.
Computer networking: the Internet
The Internet is said to be the largest network in the world. It is a collection of networks that are connected together. It is spelled with the capital case “I” to distinguish it from other inter-networks such as intranet and extranet. It has become a part of everyday society and so many things can be done through this phenomenon. It all started out as a program by the military so that they are able to exchange information with each other.
It wouldn’t be too long until keen eyed businessmen saw it’s potential and brought it to the everyday consumer. This is how Internet service providers were formed. Now, you can have food delivered, go shopping, find a mate, watch movies, participate in fantasy basketball leagues, and download music through the Internet.
Computer networking has really created a lot of opportunities for other industries to flourish. Life has definitely become easier because of computers, and their connection with each other. With each development in computer networking, higher productivity comes as a positive result.

Very impressive short resume – but?
A dead give away as to the bogus nature of your input -
This is Yahoo Answers – not the type of high end headhunter organization that you would truly be connected with, were you serious about finding/securing a future . . .
Good luck, anyway – and I'm quite impressed with your ability to fabricate!!!
Oh – and my partner has done both of what you claim to have done – that's MY authority for knowing what I'm talking about. . .

I owned an Electrical Contracting / IT business so I'm fairly confident advising you to stay in the IT field. If you stay in electrical engineering, the most money you'll probably make (in a job) is as a project manager.
This will very likely require you to pass the Professional Engineering test (not easy) and at least 10 years in the field, at a high level (design & management). Design engineers are notoriously underpaid and underappreciated, and the market is saturated with electrical engineers.
The IT field is constantly evolving, growing and it’s much easier to move up into a senior management position in considerably less time. Plus, if you ever wanted to go into your own business, the IT field has much less overhead, more profit and consequently much easier to get into. So, in my opinion, it’s an easy choice, stay with IT.

not the way you want to you can have both running and multitask more by doing some on each machine but you can not borrow processing power to make the other computer faster. sometimes i d/l on 1 machine and chat and surf on the other one all it takes is a fast broadband provider so using the second machine does'nt slow the d/l to much on the first machine. you want a faster machine either upgrade one of yours or buy a newer faster machine.

Sounds like a corrupted bootloader, or a failing PSU. The first can be fixed in Recovery Console (command is: fixboot).

Knowing a little about both I know that the technology field is definitely paying more! If you could be a project manager that would be neat if thats something you want to do. But mind you that to be a manager is a little stressful, but it also depends on the people and everything else. Also think of the hours you will have to work between the two, the time off, etc. And which one do you, or would you like to do more? I'd just keep going with your CCNA and work up to CCNP and since you have a job you are gaining experience everyday. But if you really like to do electrical work and this would be the ideal job for you that you would really like to do then go for it. And one benefit about that is the fact that you won't have to keep going to school for it b/c with technology it is changing every year, and month even. So there are benefits and draw back both to each. I am actually heading in the IT area as well, do you think you could e-mail me….my e-mail is humpady_dumpady1@yahoo.com its my unprofessional e-mail that i've had since high school so all of my friends are on it, but its my yahoo e-mail. But I hope that I helped you, and if you do e-mail me, I would have a few questions for you. Best of luck on your decision and Happy Holidays.

If you are running a corporate network and utilize the Windows DHCP server then you can check in the Address Leases section of the DHCP MMC and the unique ID is the MAC address for that machine.

In XP (and maybe Vista also), a reliable, fast start-up often depends on how the system is put away.
Turning a Windows system "OFF" (from the 'Start' button) is not the best way to put your system away for the night (or extended periods).
And forcing a shutdown with the power button is never a good option; only a last resort as it prevents Windows from 'housekeeping' system files to get ready for the next start-up, and may, over time, cause file corruption & slow down (or break) Windows.
Shutdowns using the 'hibernate' method gives several benefits: It's a near zero power state; puts all open work (and Windows) onto the hard drive for really fast start-ups; and if power is lost (storms, etc.) the document or picture you were working on won't be lost like it would be in 'Standby' mode.
Go to Start> Control Panel> Power Options> Hibernate: here check the box.
To show this option when turning unit off; Start> Turn Off Computer> HOLD down 'Shift' key & 'Standby' becomes "Hibernate': then check.
(Some systems have a 'crescent moon' key to go right to hibernate)
To start up, push the power button, and Windows will resume.
Another benefit of hibernation; if your browsers are open to a page(s) that requires a 'log in' (like your Yahoo! stuff), the browser will stay logged in to that page (even when the internet connection is closed), so you don't have to go through all the username/password login steps again, which saves time. (If browser is left 'open')
About the 'other user'; if there is another account open, this warning is what you'll get @ shutdown.
When you power up your system, there should be just the one account you are logging in to; if there are others at closing time, that looks a little suspicious. Not sure just what, but it bears inspection, as it could be a secret (hacked?) account (but don't panic just yet).
After you log in and all things get settled in, right click the bottom Toolbar, and tick 'Task Manager' then 'Users'; this window will list all logged on accounts. If more than you is there, then you may have something going on & it could be a 'bot' account. Seek more 'hands on' help with this.

This happens to me too when I use system restore.
restart the computer and then try to check the boxes, it should work.
