Definately can be a pain in the ass when they go wrong, although RAID1 is much easier!

Slightly concerned in the 'Chat' section - General Chat - that there's a post in a topic 'Our Neighbor's Cat' by member 'Bestiality'. LOL!

Not really. Not only did it have a knackered MFT, it was also reseeking. Lots. The drive was deemed toast and I was offered a fair reward if I could recover the information as it was of significant clinical importance. I succeeded, and never saw the reward. Although some might say I've...

Smashing the platters DOES destroy the data on them depending on how well you do it. Fire damage is another good way of doing it, but other than that anything can be recovered (even recently it was proved that overwritten stuff can be recovered!) depending on how deep your pockets are. RAID...

Get out, you're officially banned from the Technology Chat section for being a prize waste of opinion. I've used http://www.z-a-recovery.com/ before, and it recovered around 400GB data off a drive with a knackered MFT... Also had it recover from a 4GB SD card, and a colleague has used it a...

Are you truly drunk? MS don't put Betas out through Windows/Microsoft Updates. I think you've just consigned yourself to retire from the Technical section of this site... Ensure you've got Service Pack 3 installed, and Windows Internet Explorer 7 might be a good idea but I think mainly you...

Lol. Bless ya <3.

T-Mobile should change it for you.

What model of laptop is it? If it's one of the ones with a specific nVidia set of chips then it's covered under extended warranty.

Yep. MS have just about conceded the Media Player fight and let iTunes have it's way, because I'll give Apple their dues - it's better. One thing that MS have nailed though, is Media Player, Media Center and Home Server. That works as we want it to. Pity all my stuff is in AAC and I've got...

I got Windows Home Server. TBH, massively disappointed. iTunes needs to be on it's supported list.

Yeah, they need to sort that. I'd love to be able to run an iTunes 'Server' properly, rather than the features that they offer currently, so that an entire family can store their music on it, have access to each others but still retain their own playlists on their computers. But then, nobody...

Gotta be at least the third time the rumours sites have played that one. One day they might get it right!

Because you can't sit on your laptop posting on here while it's plugged into your TV running Frontrow, so you don't need to buy a second crapbook if you use an Apple TV.

Save you £500?

You sync your iTunes to the Apple TV, so it stores it locally. Anything it can't sync, it streams - which yes, requires the machine to be on.

If your channels are all working fine, you might have to do a power off for an hour, then power back. Leave it to mess itself around for a while, then turn it on after about 10 minutes. Usually works, failing that you'll have to format it...

Fool. Can't believe you're giving up. What kind of geek are you?! Lol. Nah, credit to you - I couldn't have put up with the s**t you do from some of the ungrateful scrotes on here. I'd have turned the server off and told them to get a social life!

It just logged me out... NVM.

Link epic fail...

Is Christmas not over yet btw? Sort the theme out!

OMGLOL there so is! I'm on it now man!!!11111one! Linux FTFFW!

Wooo!! Free first bump. :D I'm sat on my terribly shite Vista machine now... It's at least a year old, so god help it. *Note - except the graphics cards. I swapped the single 8800GTX for two 9600GTs for the hell of it.

Unless it's an XPS, I don't think they get options for changing clock speeds etc. Shouldn't need to really for the forseeable future anyway - got the 2.4GHz Quad Core in both my home machines, and they're fine.

Sexism? Where did you find that? And I left - handed in my notice, and a couple of days later told my manager exactly why I was leaving...

No, I'm quite happy where I am thanks. Got a comfortable existance and am very happy with my other half. Wouldn't change her the world...

No, and I'm not your friend. Vista is a step forward, but everything about 2003 was a massive improvement on 2000 - Exchange and Active Directory took a colossal leap forward. Vista is an improvement, but for 2008 it's only really an improvement in manageability of Vista clients.

If you think the Samsung is badly built, you're going to be offended by the other offerings. Having had them all on my desk at one point, it was the one I spunked for because it felt best put together...

Vote for Sophos here, massively flexible product including packaging for installation on user's home PCs if your environment allows remote working but stipulates enterprise AV... Sophos' console is excellent too... The 3rd party removal is an excellent touch - but AFAIK they still haven't got...

Good cheap box, no THX but hey, it's not like you'll notice!
