Good tip on the backup. Of course with any upgrade or fresh install someone should backup to disk or to a hard drive that can be disconnected. How many people have placed their backup files and program on another partition/hard drive to only overwrite it by not paying attention to where the OS wants to install.

I am sitting here sipping my coffee after taking the dog for a wade through the snow watching even more snow fall. They're calling for another foot of that *&$# white stuff today. After shoveling the last few days plus falling on my back I feel like a truck ran over me. It didn't help any seeing as yesterday my brother asked me to help him carry a hundred pound propane tank from behind his house to go get it filled then drag it back through the four foot of snow at his place. After that I decided to hit the grocery store and stock up with a months supply. What a time pushing a over flowin

We got over 30" yesterday. This is on top of three plus feet previous to Monday. It is finally tapering off here and slowly drifting north. It warmed up to a balmy -7 windchill. My Ford actually became useful by slapping it in 4 wheel drive and blasting through the bank of snow across the driveway left by the plows. I was amazed that my old GMC two wheel drive didn't have much problems going through the snow but it does have a bit much in the power range which causes the tires to spin easy. The people on the Tughill Plateau just north of me must be tired of the snow by now. They have been hit

The city declared a snow emergency and told us to stay off the streets. We got around one foot of new snow in about three hours so far. The wind chill is around -15 to -20.

Happy B-Day!!!

I had to post this in the "What are your plans for Vista" thread at WindowsBBS. LOL!

Winter is so wonderful.

It's a bit nippy here with windchill between -10 and -20. I am eyeballing the lake effect just a few miles north that is dumping several feet of that nice white stuff. I hope that when it starts drifting south to us it dimishes some. I pity the crew that is taking over my bbqing for the Super Bowl party at my old bar today. They are going to freeze their butts off outside.

Does he travel by RV? If so he could use satellite services. The dishes mount to the top of the RV. If he stays at motels/hotels/inns or etc. he could use wifi if there is any in the area. There are also cell phone modems (Sprint, T-Mobile and etc.) but these would be limited to certain areas (Alaska???). The old evil standby is AOL. You can plug into any regular phone and use their 1-800 connection number. This is handy if you are only interested in retrieving email and surf the Internet plus it's available all over the world.

In the real world each beer drinker pays for his own beer of which more than 80% of the cost is taxes. An actual bottle of beer only costs around 7 cents, but with, overhead (profit margin for seller is about 10%), taxes and fees (read disguised taxes) it retails for $2 plus. No matter what your earnings are (poor or rich) the government sucks you dry.

You need to download and install signed drivers. Does this FX5500 have the TV Tuner or video capture input?

Usually is.

No problem Marty. I can't wait to see it updated.

No tunnel yet, but after this weekend there may be one. The band shifted slightly north where it is dumping another two feet. Seeing as lake effect can change it's course suddenly there is no guarentee that it won't hit us. Naturally they do state we will be getting nailed again Friday through Monday morning. We have received about three foot plus in the last couple of days. I have to go clean the trucks off again and shovel what dropped last night. It wouldn't be so bad if my dog's only fear was snow higher than he is. I have to clear a path and area for him to go do his thing which is locate

Happy B-Day!!!

I need a Big cup of coffee. It took me an hour to clear a path to the trucks and brush them off so I could move them. Now I'm waiting for my friend to show and plow. We were getting about five inches an hour of that nice white stuff. At least it warmed up to 6F.

What driver did you download/install and from where?

Type it in exactly like this --->

We got nailed with over a foot of that white stuff in less than three hours and it's still coming. I am tired of cleaning off the trucks and shoveling. I called in the reinforcements and will wait to be plowed out in the morning. I can't believe some of the fools on the roads. I had the parents of my neighbor stop at the side of the driveway in the road instead of pulling in causing one car to swerve into a snowbank avoiding them. Damn fools. Visibility was less than a couple of feet and they stop in the road. I drove over to my old bar for pool league, which got called off after I arrived, an
