Re: To crack 17-character AES password: 100 years and 1 billion dollars

Your Name — Tue, 28 Sep 2010 11:11:50 -0000

Yeah, this table is completely wrong. If the size of the set of possible characters is C and the maximum number of characters in the password is N, then you will require roughly C^N/2 tries to crack the password -- the table appears to be assuming that you require on the order of C*N tries. A truly random 17 character password is wholly outside of the reach of pretty much anyone nowadays. Also, your statements assume that you can get another computer for only one dollar, and assumes it doesn't cost anything to power them. Finally, chances are you aren't trying to crack the password using AES, but using some hashing scheme which generates the actual key AES uses, and depending upon the hashing scheme you could possibly perform many millions or only a few guesses per second. Trying to crack the AES key directly would be utterly infeasible.

Care to show your working? A factor of 30 difference going from a 2 to 3 characters password (which would only be correct if you had a 30 character alphabet) yet only a factor of 1.1 from 16 to 17 characters? How does that work?

I'm glad you found a solution, Micho. Thanks for sharing :-). Repartitioning usually does it, weird enough.

Hi, just wanted to let you all know that I also had this error when trying to install Windows 7 over a corrupted Vista installation; the problem must have been all the partitions that came in my Dell Inspiron laptop. Long story short: a bootable Gparted live USB fixed the issue. I deleted all the partitions and now I'm golden!

Hi,

Thanks for reporting, but I was able to open the aforementioned page without issues in Firefox 3.6. Which version did you use?

You should update your website for FireFox.

Ace, I'm also having this problem. The weird thing is, I know my HD is partitioned, but I can't see them in the partition manager. Dell and Windows tech support are no help. At this point, all I can say is I'm never buying a Dell again.

Re: Vista Setup Error: 0xE0000100. Huh?

Alex — Wed, 09 Jun 2010 03:45:55 -0000

Glad you fixed it. So repartitioning it did the trick?

I wasnt sure if this was the fix or not, but this post finally gave me motivation to take back my hdd and blow it completely. Thankfully I have a 500 GiB hdd with federal on it as well. Worked like a champ on my m1330.
Thanks!

Worked great for me. I too had to use:

This solution does not work for me in OS X v10.6.2 and Safari v4.0.4. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? I really want to get this working…

@jmsnams:
Yeah, be sure to let us know whether and how you solved this issue. Still isn't very clear to me what causes this.

Good luck,

Wow... and I thought I was the only one! I have been working on an Inspirion 1525 for a friend of mine and ran into a brick wall w/ this. Her daughter somehow removed the operating system... I will try all of your suggestions and see if any of them work. I'll let you know how it goes...

I am having the same problem and went to applications utilities and then terminal. Typing the command cd/library/applications\support/vmware\fusion/ and then sudo boot.sh-restart told me that the command was not recognizable. Am I in the right place or what am I missing. VMFusion was working fine yesterday and today, with no changes what so ever, isn't allowing me to connect to the network.
Thanks

Re: Windows 7: Deleting, 3 hours remaining

Robert Pendell — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 13:56:23 -0000

Part of it has to do with network speed and the other part is the 10k or so small files. It always takes a long time to delete a large quantity of files regardless of overall size. When dealing with small files the overhead becomes huge on the drive movement. You will get the same kind of effect on a local drive too. Just not as severe.

I have encountered the same error message trying reinstall vista home premium (sp1) on my dell inspiron 1525. I tried removing the dell media direct partition as well with no luck ecountering an error message saying that i could not delete a volume containing a system partition. I even went into diskpart.exe marked volume F: (which is media direct) as inactive an attempted to delete it with still no luck. I tried overriding with no luck either. I've searched everywhere and and read pages from microssoft none helping me with my problem
