    How can I safely uninstall a program without an uninstaller?

    Just delete the root folder and all its subfolders, as explained here: http://cygwin.com/faq/faq_2.html#SEC20

    What Are Your Favorite MS-DOS Games?

    Hmm, I loved King's Quest, Space Quest and Police Quest. My favourite games were probably Wizardry - Proving Grounds Of The Mad Overlord and Starflight I and II. Then there was Elite, which was awesome too.

    What Are Some Solutions for an Older Computer's Boot Up Issue?

    How old is this computer? Is Windows 2000 already installed on it, or are you trying to install Windows 2000 on it and having trouble completing the install?

    Fixing µTorrent Sluggish Download Speed: Windows XP Firewall & Port Forwarding

    Okay, well I'm pretty sure that's a router. The site you linked seems to have a page for that one, so try this and see if it helps: http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Westell/Westell6100/Utorrent.htm

    Fixing µTorrent Sluggish Download Speed: Windows XP Firewall & Port Forwarding

    Okay, if you're not behind a router and you're using Windows Firewall, then that list isn't going to help, because they're all routers and hardware firewalls. What brand and model of modem are you using?

    By that do you mean which router should you choose out of the list on the site you linked?

    Derivation of Partial Derivatives in a Textbook: Understanding the Factor of 1/2

    Haha, I see now...as you may have noticed, I'm not exactly the sharpest tool in the shed :) Thanks again.

    Derivation of Partial Derivatives in a Textbook: Understanding the Factor of 1/2

    Hang on, after looking at it a bit more I'm not so sure...wouldn't that give you a factor of 2 out the front rather than 1/2?

    Derivation of Partial Derivatives in a Textbook: Understanding the Factor of 1/2

    I'm trying to follow a derivation in given in a textbook. Part of this derivation goes like this: \frac{d}{ds}\left(\frac{1}{c}\frac{dx}{ds}\right)=c\left(\frac{\partial^2\tau}{\partial x^2}\frac{\partial \tau}{\partial x} + \frac{\partial^2\tau}{\partial x \partial y}\frac{\partial...

    Using a Fourier transform on the wave equation

    Right then, setting the integrand to zero: e^{-i\omega t} \left( \nabla^2 \tilde{\psi}\left( x,y,z,\omega \right) + c^{-2} \omega^2 \tilde{\psi} \left( x,y,z,\omega \right) \right) = 0 Which gives \nabla^2\tilde{\psi}+\frac{\omega^2 \tilde{\psi}}{c^2}=0 which is...the Helmholtz equation...

    Using a Fourier transform on the wave equation

    After doing that, you get \frac{1}{2 \pi}\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}e^{-i\omega t} \left( \nabla^2 \tilde{\psi}\left( x,y,z,\omega \right) + c^{-2} \omega^2 \tilde{\psi} \left( x,y,z,\omega \right) \right)d\omega=0 ?

    Using a Fourier transform on the wave equation

    So it'd look like this after the substitution? \frac{1}{2 \pi}\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}\nabla^2 \tilde{\psi}\left( x,y,z,\omega \right) e^{-i\omega t}d\omega -c^{-2}\frac{1}{2 \pi} \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \frac{\partial^2}{\partial t^2} \left[ \tilde{\psi} \left( x,y,z,\omega \right)...

    Using a Fourier transform on the wave equation

    So, wherever \psi appears in the original wave equation, it is replaced by \frac{1}{2\pi} \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \tilde{\psi} \left( x,y,z,\omega \right) e^{-i\omega t}dt ? Also, what do you mean by "assume that you can move partial derivatives through the integral signs"? Thanks...
