Glad to hear everything went well, handplane.
Now you have an excuse to lay around, and do nothing.
Take care of yourself.

Make copies of the files, then convert the copies to MP3.
If you convert the copies to a high bitrate, say 160 or above, I don't think you'll notice any drop-off in sound quality, on an MP3 player.
Once converted to MP3, you could also use a program like Audacity, to cut the albums up into individual songs.
You can also use Audacity to edit ID3 tags.

I never signed up as a beta tester for anything.
I had to remove Spybot as it was crashing my system. I even tried d/l'ing a new copy -- no good, still crashes my system. Must've been some update they added that no longer works with pre-xp computers.
Spybot is very CPU intensive.
It's possible that the CPU is overheating, and the system is shutting down to protect the processor.
Are your fans running?
Have you cleaned the interior of the case lately?
Check to make sure the heatsink on the processor isn't loose.
If you don't believe heat can be an issue, check out these threads in the Spybot forums:

Dell Backpedals on Preloading LinuxAlthough Dell is dancing around the idea of reintroducing Linux desktops and notebooks, the computer maker said it won't make a move until one of the competing flavors of Linux emerges as a business favorite. Dell now maintains that it doesn't want to pick one Linux distribution and alienate users with a preference for another.

Nice one, handplane.

From the Home page:
Requirements for installation:- Windows 2000 or XP
- Internet Explorer 6, 7, or Firefox 1.5 and later

The thread wasn't deleted.
I linked to it in my above post, and explained why it was set invisible.

The link was set invisible, until the information could be checked out.
It has now been set visible.

Deep Burner would have also done it.
You would have just had to select Create audio CD, when DeepBurner started.

For anyone interested, I found a Firefox extension to help enhance the security of your PC, while using Firefox, and Internet Explorer.
It's an Anti-keylogger called, KeyScrambler Personal.
KeyScrambler Personal encrypts your keystrokes at the kernel driver level to protect your login information from keyloggers.When you type on your keyboard, the keys travel along a path within the operating system before it arrives at your browser. Keyloggers plant themselves along this path and observe and record your keystrokes. The collected information is then sent to the criminals who will use it to steal from you.
KeyScrambler defeats keyloggers by encrypting your keystrokes at the keyboard driver level, deep within the operating system. When the encrypted keystrokes reach your browser, KeyScrambler then decrypts them so you see exactly the keys you've typed. Keyloggers can only record the encrypted keys, which are completely indecipherable.
Unlike anti-virus and anti-spyware programs that depend on recognition to remove keyloggers that they know about, KeyScrambler will protect you from both known and unknown keyloggers. What's more, KeyScrambler provides protection without getting in your way. You don't have anything to learn about the program and you don't have to do anything differently, but with KeyScrambler your important personal information will be a whole lot safer.
It has been independently tested by Grinler, at BC, and it does work.
He tested it, using three different commercial keyloggers:
Keyboard Spectator Pro (KGB Spy) 3.30
There's a Personal version (Freeware), and a professional version ($24.99).
It's also available, from the Homepage, for Internet Explorer:

Is there any way to add drawers?
Hate to see all that space wasted.
How about some slideouts for keyboards?
good suggestions. As to a keyboard, it is already at the perfect height to place it on top of the counter(arms are Parallel with the floor). If I sit on a tall stool, I think my legs would hit drawers. I fully agree, I have lots of wasted space below, i may try and add some shelves.
Build some drawers into 1, or 2, independent cabinets, on wheels, that will fit under the workbench.
Have one set of wheels, on each cabinet, with locks.
Whenever you sit at the bench, pull the cabinets out, which will give you all of the leg room you need, and you still have all of the storage space the drawers provide.
When finished, or just standing, the cabinets go under the bench, filling up some of that "wasted space".
Also, when the cabinets are pulled out, the tops give you a little more counter space, that you can move to where you need (mobile counter tops

Clicking and continuing to drag in Irfanview, will continue to scroll when you hit the edge of the window.
Also, after you have created the selection box, you can resize it to your needs by moving the cursor over the edges of the selection box,until the double arrow appears, then click and drag to the desired dimensions.
After the selection is made, click Edit, and select Crop Selection.

There should be an option to clean the jets.
Have you tried that?

Note: You will have to go back and re-apply all of your personal settings (Options), as deleting the Profile folder will erase everything Firefox related.
You will be starting with a clean slate.
To completely uninstall Firefox, you will need to delete your Profile folder.
This file is not removed when you uninstall Firefox from Add/Remove.
It will retain all of your previous settings, and re-apply them to your new install, if it's not deleted.
That's why, when you install a new version of Firefox, your previous settings, bookmarks, passwords, etc., all remain the same.
For a Fresh (start from scratch) install, this folder has to be removed.
You might want to make a copy of the Bookmark.html file, before you uninstall, and save it to somewhere you'll be able to find it.
This is where all of your Bookmarks are stored.
Set windows to show hidden files,
How to see hidden files in Windows
Then navigate to:
C:\ Documents and Settings \ "your user name" \ Application Data \ Mozilla \ Firefox \ Profiles \ default.random characters \ Bookmark.html
And make a copy of the Bookmark.html file
Then you can replace, the new one created, with the old one, you copied.
After you install Firefox, delete Bookmark.html, and replace it with your saved copy of Bookmark.html.
Restart Firefox.
That way, you'll have all of your Bookmarks back.
Now for the uninstall.
Uninstall your current version of Firefox from Add/Remove programs.
Then navigate to:
C:\ Documents and Settings \ "your user name" \ Application Data \ Mozilla \ Firefox \ Profiles
Delete the Profiles folder (or send it to the Recycle Bin as a backup).
Then navigate to:
C: \ Program Files \ Mozilla Firefox, and delete that folder.
Download a fresh copy of Firefox.
Now, reinstall Firefox.
Don't forget to replace your Bookmark.html file.

Have you tried POW
Not sure about browser compatability.
Wife's the same, refuses to use Firefox.
Been using POW for about 3 yrs. with no problems.
Once it's trained, you very seldom see any popups.

feed rampslides up a curved spot into the barrel
extractorinto the "claw"It could be the lips on the mag are not releasing the round high enough (bent down too far), a weak mag spring (most likely), feed ramp needs to be polished (possible considering the age of the gun), or a combination of the three.
I get it.I'd have to show you for you to really know what I mean if you don't get it.I'm a Gunsmith.
-
Sounds like the magazine lips, or the follower, needs to be adjusted.This rifle tends to jam a little sometimes when changing rounds where the round will miss the barrel and whack something and I think that's what damaged the round I was loading the magazine and chagning through the roundsThis is a pretty common problem with those older magazines.
When you have the gun inspected, bring the magazines, and explain to the Gunsmith the problems you're having.
Adjusting them is no big deal, but it should be done by someone experienced with the procedure.
By chambering problems, do you mean the bolt is hard to close?Plus my rifle doesn't much care for the round tips they seem to cause chambering problems.That could be a headspace problem.
That's another common problem with old Enfield's.
Be sure to have that checked.
-
If the jacket is that severly damaged (jacket is sticking out further than the back of the bullet), don't fire it.
Even if you could chamber the round, which is highly unlikely, and fire it, it would likely cause a catastrophic pressure build up, which could cause severe damage to the gun, or the one firing it, neither of which is worth the risk.
-
Looks nice, but I would check the spelling on that page.
This is a personal website made by be to hopefully entertain you guys a little bit. -
As tenmm said, if it's just the tip that's damaged, firing the round will not damage the gun.
The only thing that a damaged tip will affect is the accuracy of the round, due to the aerodynamics of the bullet being altered.
Even then you probably won't notice the difference it in a gun that old, unless it's a match grade barrel in mint condition, which is unlikely.
For what that round cost (approx. $1), I would fire it.
