A broken record come from "you sound like a broken record", if you have a scratch on a record the needle can jump back and constantly replay a part of the record so it always plays the same thing over and over again, hence someone who constantly repeats the same thing (normally in a derogatory...

Technically they are round it's the plastic covering that's square, all types of floppy disks have a flexible 'plastic' that contains the data. Hard drives do as well but they are not flexible and have multiple layers or platers. I trust you've never taken a disk appart -tsk not a techie then...

Re-quote + highlight ;) Apart from the above, true and yes I would but my point is the chance of having no where to go is highly unlikely other than a policeman's helmet or my hat :p which either would be legal under the (unlikely) circumstances.

Exactly right - however (hypothetically) if a policeman's helmet is the only place she can go........;)

'Technically' the law allows pregnant women to relive themselves wherever they need (want) to and therefore, by any whatever means, if they had a policeman's helmet they could theoretically use it, it just not specifies they may use a policeman's helmet (instead of anything else). Law and...

It could be the old Microsoft knows best option, is the program an Office program? or any other Microsoft product? If so try creating a new shortcut to the same location and trying the change icon option from that shortcut then delete the old one. (In fact try this even if it's not a Microsoft...

Not all do, it's mainly laptops that have an F or Fn (function) key so that keys can have dual or tri functions to save space or provide typical laptop functions like changing the display setting (VGA output etc.) that's why you'll see a second or third icon on several keys. (think of it as a...

For a fully comprehensive list and advice on what and why to start, stop or set to manual check out this website clicky each process has information on what it is and what it does. These are the default services for all versions of Windows which is a good place to begin any other processes you...

Newcastle United fan here, though I'm Scottish* by birth and live in London :confused: ? Well I spent about 7 years in Newcastle and loved the place and if you love Newcastle you automatically love the Toon :p *I keep an eye out for Hamilton Accies (nearest to where I was born) and Airdies (my...

;) Erm so are these ones that have marked as true on snopes, if memory serves right 1 and 4 are true, 2 wouldn't surprise me as there are some really stupid world records, 3 sounds unlikely but you never know - if I had a kid though they wont be on Facebook until they are at least 16 (if at all...

Are your looking for a quicker way to do this? If so Windows key + p click projector only, almost as fast as double clicking on a batch file but if you must have a batch file this will work*: @echo off %windir%\system32\DisplaySwitch.exe /external exit To get back to normal with a batch file...

I'm going to New Caledonia clicky 1 clicky 2 for 3 weeks in September and I can't wait, I've been to Brazil and Australia but not been away for this long before (or this far...well lets face it I can't go much further it's virtually the other side of the planet!). Also planning a few days on...

Yep I am - a massive fan in fact a big fan of all types of motor sport, I try to catch as many races in different series' as possible. F1 though is special for me, I turned into a real F1 'geek' after going to my first live race at Silverstone and never looked back, the sound*, the smell, the...

I assume it's a HTML page If so are you making a list? li is the HTML tag for that so in theory li on it's own should make a bulleted link like this in the design view: Link 1 In fact just tested it and it works fine for me (CS5) so not sure what causing this - maybe some strange setting...

No1 is technically faster, it's clocked higher and has a better cache, the AMD CPU you've quoted is technically 1.9GHz base but I believe the 2.5GHz quoted is probably the max over clocking you can do on it (you have to be a little careful over clocking a chip it can make it unstable if you push...

Here's some other ones: gas pedal = accelerator rural road = B road parking lot = car park divided highway = dual carriageway station wagon = estate car overpass = flyover transmission = gearbox 18 wheeler = juggernaut trailer truck = articulated lorry Freeway or highway = motorway...

or if you have restore points (depending on the version of Windows - I presume the server runs Windows) which any properly set-up network should have you can right click on any folder (even from the client machine) go to properties > previous versions and restore from there.

cough ;) I'm looking for interesting links rather than trying to get there via the shortest route as often it throws up 'oh moments'. Yep and a rather good show imo the best of the CIS etc franchise. Technically yes but it's generally accepted that full stops are not really necessary (BBC...

The idea is to get from an actor, TV show or film back to the same actor, TV show or film in at least 6 steps (rather than tying to get the least number of steps if you gather my meaning - that's too easy). Each step can be done either via an actor a TV show or film the more interesting and...

Re: When will teh world end? In approx 1 billion years, probably just before lunch :p. Scientists reckon that by then the expansion of the Sun during it's transition to a red giant will have completely destroy the Earth biosphere. Now don't get me started on the so called Mayan prediction...
