Thanks for the replies.
I'd happened to notice a 1.8GHz CPU for sale at WalMart, which is what brought up the question. I thought that surely after 6 or 7 years the 1.8Ghz would be long gone from...

I haven't kept track of processor speed improvements over the years. I suppose I haven't even bothered shopping for a new CPU simply as I'd have to figure out the CPU speeds.

So, does anyone know...

Well, I'm not as advanced as that. I still have all the parts, but still as machines. No cannibals here. I suppose I must currently be more of a museum type.
Anyway, lock up that scrap metal. We're...

It's a tradition NooNoo, tradition. You UK folks all know about traditions...

Well, if it's not an aluminum screw and anything can be used, I have hundreds in the shed, and you can be sure the one...

Are the screws used for attaching processor fans made or of any special material and have a special thread? Where can you obtain them in vaious lengths (or can you get them at hardware stores)?...

It doesn't appear to work on my Firefox 1.5 either, or other versions.
So it doesn't look like the site works on the Firefox browser.

This might give a clue to what's giving the problem. Here's what it sits around trying to load

"Transfer data from mjxads.internet.com"

Hi,
Gave it another go.
It did load, but after about 3 mins.

Again, I think (I'm not entirely sure) it used to load like a regular web page a few months ago. I suppose when it stopped working I...

Hi Rich,
This is Firefox 1.0.8
"I think"? it used to work OK with the page, put hasn't recently (month(s)?).

That's good you have the folks feeding the news articles - I hadn't checked that menu...

Thanks,
Ah, so its you folks feeding the headlines.
Well, it must be my old version of Firefox that is unable to cope with the homepage.
It all displayed on my long forgotten IE.
I'll probably...

Hi,
Does anyone know what happened to the tech news you used to have on the home page?
I used to use it quite a lot.

Gone for good or just a while?

Thanks

Hi,
Yes, I have the Symantec Ghost boot CD.
But when I have Ghost images on External USB hard drives, is that CD all I need?, or do I need a floppy with drivers for the USB External hard drives?...

Hi Ferrit,

So I have to use Ghost to create a Ghost boot disk.
How do I load the drivers onto it - do all the external USB drives use the same drivers (as I store to 2 different ones.

I'll...

Yes, I think I'd read most of that, but not sure what it means.
"Just a ghost boot disk with USB drivers, and a BIOS that supports the USB drives."

Do I need to create a Ghost boot disk and put...

I'm storing Ghost images on a USB External Hard Drive.
At least I know how to do that bit!
But unfortunately, I didn't understand the writeup on how to restore from it.

What do I need, and what...

Hi slgrieb,
Yes, it's ghosted.
Well, I'd like to have 2 drives running while I can (unless they can do something bad to the hardware when they fail?).
I suppose I was just looking for a way to get...

Hi

Win XP

I purchased a big internal hard drive.
I'm hearing a noise on my original drive, so assume it will rise to the heavens at some point soon.

I currently want to keep the original...

So you don't thing Registry fixing or uninstalling and resinstalling USB etc devices would have much of an impact on it.


I actually logged on to post a question about re-installing.

You know...

The CD-RW produced an error again.

Audio Codec and Game Port are now both disabled in BIOS.

I still have the same problem.

ISOBURN's Mr. Paehl say's it's nothing to do with his software - it installs no drivers etc.

OK, well, I've studied the current modern CD writing process a bit more.

So Windows XP is inadequate and can't process a CD like a hard disk (You'd think those people who wrote DOS long ago could...

Thanks.
Well, I know it is able to burn to a CD-RW disc - just not to a CD-R.
These CD-R's are 700MB, not 650MB, but the computer isn't 5 years or more old, so I would think it should be able to...

I haven’t yet seen a document that describes open source licenses in a "for dummies" way.

I suppose all I need to know is:

1/ Can a home user use the product.

2/ If they develop something...
