  1. I am kind of grumbling. It appears we have about 5 inches of ice/packed snow that need to be removed. It is going to be need to be chipped out, YUCK .
  2. Us to. it started snowing just about an hour ago. We are supposed to get 4-8 inches(for you Canadians thats 10-20 centimeters ). By the end of the day, it is supposed to warm up and start sleeting/raining. The good part is, the snow may keep the sleet from freezing on the ground.
  3. I see you are using that darn metric system. In Celcius it was -14 here :-) The Pacific must keep it a little milder for you.
  4. I woke up to single digit temperatures, 25 mph winds, and snow that needed shoveling. It is officially winter here in Rochester, MN.
  5. Happy birthday. Nice to have you here :-)
  6. I am pretty rusty with my scripting, but the following non-scripting method should work. Use the windows search feature to find all image files in your music directory then delete all files that are found.
  7. Thats cool, well deserved. You earned it.
  8. it probably has a detachable cdrom that came with it. If you really need to, the following method works well even without a drive. I have done it with XP several times. I am pretty certain it would work with "Windows 2000" also http://www.syschat.com/install-windows-xp-...ppy-cd-463.html
  9. for me, its money in the bank. I already spend $500+/month at newegg.
  10. I just was told about the following paypay promotion by a friend. I have not read the fine print, so their may be restrictions. edit added later// Their is a $50 limit, so you will get 20% off the first $250 purchased.
  11. according to your manual. These are the beed codes they listed this may be the problem 1 long 1 short: DRAM or M/B error by the way, nice system :-)
  12. With about 90% certainty, it is either your power supply or motherboard. Out of those two items I would put the higher probability on the PSU.
  13. Thanks for the update:-) Do you have any idea to why he did that?
  14. Today I got this error trying to run combofix,"Current date is 2007-11-19. This copy of combofix has expired". I used a newly downloaded version from this location.. Any ideas why?
  15. thanks for the link, I will check into that.
  16. In my town, Dell does its warranty work in home by local technicians. I know this because one of my competing repair shops in town does this. Do any of you know what is involved with partnering with Dell to contract their warranty work? Any ideas what this pays? I have been searching on Dells site, but am not finding the info/application I need to peruse this. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks :-)
  17. I think those are system restore points. Those viruses will only be activated if you restore to an earlier state. If you turn system restore off then on again it will delete all of the restore points(with the viruses).
  18. I am going to see him with my father-in-law this February. ... Lucky you. One of the very few artists I've seen live, and worth it. Interesting that, in this milquetoast suburban area, we all sat there in rapture but basically with our hands folded neatly in our laps. Too uptight to let go. I wanted to let go but ... I guess I'm as uptight as any. From where I sat (orchestra seating) I could see members of his entourage (family maybe?) peeking out from off stage, I got the feeling they were watching us watching him, unable to just. let. go. They looked at us like we were aliens or something
  19. My server knowledge is limited. I have server 2003 running in my office, but I am using just a workgroup(no need for a domain). Someday when I have time, I should just try setting up a domain with some client computers. If I get the job building a new workstation, I will learn then how to add it to the domain. I figured it would not be to hard to do. That is why your post caught my attention.
  20. I bid on a job to add a new file server/workstation to a windows 2000 server system. I would be interested in the outcome of this(I am not certain how to do it). Please keep me posted on the solution
  21. I am going to see him with my father-in-law this February. currently listening to "the seeker" by the Who "another one bites the dust" by Queen
  22. Are you booting the computer with the recovery cd already in? Is your computer set to boot from the cdrom before the hardrive?
  23. I am not so certain that laptop uses a connector piece between the laptop pins and the motherboard. Below is a manual, it does not mention it ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/pc/pccbbs/mobiles_pdf/13n6183.pdf depending on the screen size of your laptop, you use a different caddy size http://cgi.ebay.com/IBM-Thinkpad-R40-R40e-...VQQcmdZViewItem http://cgi.ebay.com/IBM-Thinkpad-R40-R40e-...VQQcmdZViewItem
