take a look at the following thread - i asked something similar about euc trees when i joined thaivisa - you need to be completely sure about growing these trees before you start - theyre very destructive to the soil...

http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=35579&hl=

About jumpers, where exactly are they located physically, and how do I change them?

as tywais says - SATA devices will not have jumpers - the bios should sort out its boot device although its worth having a poke around in the bios just to check

as for jumpers - if you look at the arse end of an IDE device - next to the power socket you'll see 6 or 7 pins - probably bridged by a small plastic "jumper", theyre used for telling the device how to behave as either primary (master) or secondary (slave)

usual set up would be to have your system disc set to master and connected to IDE interface0 on the motherboard - from here you could hang another device, such as a CDRom, onto that same cable but you would use the jumper to bridge the pins that make the device a slave - theres usually a diagram on the harddrive or CD drive to show you - if no diagram look closely at the device - you should find that theyre labelled:

ma - master

sl - slave

cs - cable select

some devices will say to set as master - remove jumper all together

hope this helps

review the changes that you have made in the bios and recheck your jumpers - i personally prefer to change IDE devices to primary channel0 for your system drive and set you slaves to slave - im not a great fan of cable select.

assuming youre using IDE - i dont think Serial ATA use jumpers do they ?????

im from UK but a mate of mine had something similar - just sit back and let it run its course - i know easier said than done, but if theres a problem you will hear about it either personally or via your fiance

all the best

either or

the members album was a good thing - it had a great response

and if it means moving it to bedlam so its not so open to abuse then why not???

wiggybhoy - ive not read the whole thread but would like to offer my condolences to you, and your friends family.

remember that news, whether good or bad will attract comment from all and sundry.

this forum and many other online communties as a whole have a good relationship with its members and wouldnt go out of its way to be involved with speaking out of turn or speculating without evidence, however there are exceptions.

all the best

hi damm or dgm102 - if youre heading for LOS youll find a lot of help and advice here

none of it much good mind

to

Couldn't the Gallery be treated like Bedlum and restricted to longer term members - not ideal of course, but long timers are less likely to cut&paste across forums and then its bnot open to Guest access either?

Just a thought.

and a good one at that

mods?

yeah looks good but its not freeware -

if your pc is not connected to a local lan you can add windows security to the folders and shares which should be enough to stop unsolicited access

edit# unless of course someone nicks your pc - are your disks formatted ntfs?

no weve not "consulted a physcian" or booked an appointment with the doctor for a weeks time as we say in the UK

im just wondering

sorry to be vague but its spots, pimples, acne, blemishes, teenage red spots that are over her forehead - cant really narrow it down much more than that

Is this for locking files and folders to be sent out onto the net?

or just keeping em on your local PC?

If youre moving them around a network - do a search for some freeware file encryption

If its local - i dunno - will have to look into this

edit# right - pop over to zdnet dot com > downloads > utilities and/or security > sort by licence "free"

theyre pretty good from here - you should find what youre looking for

Guys - my thai wife has been in UK for 18months now - she has never suffered from being spotty before, but she seems to be prone to getting spots quite a lot now.

She washes, cleanses and moisturises twice daily...

doesnt wear much makeup

eats plenty of greens, som tam, but very little fish or meat - do you think this is being caused by:

Diet - lack of multi-vitamins

Lack of sunny weather

The Pill

any ideas on causes and prevention welcome

wouldnt it have just been easier to ask her to go get one of the waiters that you do know - im sure any of the staff that knew your face would have explained to her that youre a local...

either way i hope you enjoyed your steak - wherever you went for it

4 days without anyone posting a weather update, then 3 in one day. I think ol' daleyboy has been asleep at the switch (to busy trying on dresses ?)

I think he's been busy making last minute plans for his imminent arrival into fatherhood...

In his absense though - Id like to say that it has been raining in bristol in the last hour - just very finely drizzling now - now a break in the clouds is beginning to show

on my machine at home i found a whole load of *.dat files that stored visited web pages in... however i cant seem to find them on my work pc - so cant be sure of the location - however if you have a dig around in this lot, you should be able to piece something back together -

c:\documents and settings\[your username]\local settings\history

this will help retrace your most recent browsing - unless of course you cautiously clear the history cache after every surf

c:\documents and settings\[your username]\local settings\temporary internet files

you can find all sorts of cr@p in here - gif files, txt files, cookie files - but the column next to these files shows the internet address where they were picked up from too.

hope this helps

i sure feel better about ever getting shot...

all those fking war movies - with guys writhing around in agonising squeals and clutching their guts...

and here we can clearly see that discharging a gloch handgun within a 1metre range into his own foot barely raises a sweat on the guy

#edit

i was gonna add to this but i dont know the official line - ive not been around long enough - wait for a mod or long-timer to address this i reckon

bargain mate - you'll love every last disturbing minute of it

dammit - who took my thread off topic

well done Khun Yak

although i have a feeling this thread isnt gonna make the most sucessfull in the General Topics

Haven't you ever seen any prison/mental asylum movies?

That is what they ALWAYS say to new arrivals!

Yeah like the film scum. When Ray Winstone goes around saying whos your daddy? Very worrying indeed.

Not once in that movie was the line "who's your daddy?" used.

no - youre quite right - it was "who's the f***ing daddy now, eh?"

classic family viewing - quality film from Ray's early days

cheers everyone -

ill be keeping an eye on UG too - ive been called many things in my time but never refered to as "new meat"

That took you bloody long enough, but then i have met you and if your typing is anything like your speech, 500 posts really is a landmark.

Congrats mate, see ya in bedlam

I forgot to mention the close friendships that ive formed since joining the forum -

thanks dale

If the system freezes happen before getting to windows try an F8 at boot and do a safe mode with networking to see if you get anymore clues

If youre getting to windows and logging on - loading user settings etc when the freezes start - it may be worth taking items out of the startup folder one at a time.... pain in the arse i know but its a sure fire way of pinning it down to particular task if you cant find any clues from the task manager.

if theres alot of stuff in the folder - you could just create a new user with an empty startup folder and see if theres any difference.

Im not convinced that its a network issue as this side of the preceedings will have already been done before you get as far as loading the desktop..

I thought the day would never come but Ive made my first landmark in TV World - and only one minor hickup that resulted in a suspension

Cheers Everyone

1. At what point of the bootup sequence do the freezes happen?

2. Are you able to Ctrl, Alt & Delete to Task Manager whilst the system is frozen?

Initially sounds like a process is maxing out the CPU - you will be able to see which one by doing "2" and sorting the list by "CPU"
