    Sigma Lens for a Sony Alpha DSLR

    I have an old Sony Alpha 200 DSLR that I haven't used in a long time and am considering using it again on an upcoming trip. I'm going to borrow a Sigma 70-300mm F/4-5.6 APO DG Macro lens from a friend. He asked me what mount I had on my DLSR and got me confused. I could not find the type of...

    Unable to extend C Drive

    I disabled pagefile, reduced hiberfil, deleted unnecessary restore points and merged the unallocated space on the D drive. Gimp did indeed have a custom option that enabled me to save to E drive.

    Unable to extend C Drive
