Switched HDMI cables on my HP Pavillion 23xi monitor and got the "Check Video Cable" message. Opened up the Screen Resolution settings in Windows and clicked 'Detect' next to the visual display of the monitors. Error fixed, all is well.

Google Maps URL
This is current accepted way to link to a specific lat lon (rather than search for the nearest object).
http://maps.google.com/maps?z=12&t=m&q=loc:38.9419+-78.3020 zis the zoom level (1-20)tis the map type ("m" map, "k" satellite, "h" hybrid, "p" terrain, "e" GoogleEarth)qis the search query, if it is prefixed byloc:then google assumes it is a lat lon separated by a+

Hostgator Web Hosting Review
I have (not for much longer) a Hostgator reseller account. I've now transitioned the last of 30+ sites away from them. Reasons? They were purchased by a large conglomerate, moved datacenters and ever since the performance has been abysmal. Night and day since the changes. Need more proof? This is the response time graph for the last site I moved away from Hostgator. Can you guess where on the graph it occurred?

Switching Windows 8 from AHCI to ATA/IDE or reverse
I was having Intel Rapid Storage Technology RST issues with a newly installed drive...did not need performance so switched BIOS to RAID auto/ ATA to eliminate the Intel RAID controller usage
- Run msconfig (right click far left bottom corner of desktop then left click run, type msconfig).
- Click boot tab, mark safe boot, restart, change to AHCI in BIOS, boot, Windows boots in safe mode.
- Run msconfig again, boot tab unmark safe boot, restart PC.
