That worked great. Thank you for your help.

To live view my Hikvision camera I have to use Edge in IE mode. It seems it use to be in a drop down window but I can't find the option anywhere. I've tried the section in settings>default browser>"allow programs to run in IE" but that doesn't work. Any help appreciated.

The AI4 specs state "Make sure that your camera is sensitive to 850nm infrared light". I am assuming this is compatible with Hikvision cameras?? I feel the DI10 is a real value but in my case I only need light from 0-30 ft.

Thanks. That looks like a perfect solution.

I understand. Also, did you use the power supply that came with it. Seems like common problem is the power supply on the IR illuminators are a little under powered and run hot. Where I need to put the power supply is in a storage shed and summer temps are high. Guess I could take a chance...

After you opened them up did you do something to prevent future water intrusion, like some kind of sealant? I read part of the thread on the DI10 illuminator and I don't see any mention of water intrusion in it. May have been mentioned and I didn't see it. I don't mind spending the extra few...

The IR illuminator light on one of my Hikvision cameras bit the dust. I need an auxiliary light and only need about 30 ft of coverage, so I'm considering the Tenderlux 4w AI4. Some of the reviews indicate there may be an issue with water intrusion, but if mounted under a soffit would this be a...

Well, that's what I'm thinking. I'm sure one could get a defective computer but I would think the high volume, good rating dealers would be pretty consistent in providing good machines, or at least making things right if it was bad out of the box. Comparable computers look cheaper from these...

Size is not an issue for me, but no place for a 3.5" drive is not a preference. However with a SATA interface I could stick a SSD in it.

Could you give me a link on the Intel 12th gen cpu. It may not still be on sale, but I never can find the good deals on the Dell Outlet. I may be going to the wrong place. The I3 would work for me but I'd really prefer SSD storage. The HP looks like a good find also.

I need to pick up a Dell desktop computer. Since there are so many dealers selling Dell refurbs I was wondering if anyone has had particularly good results with a specific seller?

No, I don't remember that. I've had pretty frequent Macrium updates, and constant Windows updates and I can't say I've ever had a problem. But, sooner or later one of the two will cause problems. What's interesting is I've discovered Western Digital offers Acronis basic edition free if you...

AOMEI is what is was looking at. All I need is partition backups, and hopefully the ability to do them automatically. Of course, Macrium would generate Win PE install disk so you could quickly re-install C: drive, but I never had to use it. I'd like something that the paid version offered and...

Yeah, I am too!! For right now I'm going to stay with Macrium Free until I see what's going to happen. If I spend money, I'll probably go back with Macrium as I'm familiar with how it works and trust it. Before I do that I may try a couple of the other free ones, but you never really never...

Help me out here. I've never used script files before. Where is the text inserted and what activates it? It doesn't appear the script runs automatically but is kinda like a macro. And yes, I'm hoping Macrium will still work for a few more years. There well be no security updates but I would...
