So yes a bit of a rant but I need a bit of a vent... Set up A situation occurred today whilst at the local park, I was happily out and about in the sunshine, taking some photos and whilst sat at a bench having a snack and drinkies I hear someone shouting out, (initially) presumably after their...

Agreed 100% not worried about Trump, God forbid (yes an 'ironic' phrase) him becoming President I'm more worried about those who would vote for him. (see my sig ;)) Not quite: Photosynthesis does not require just sunlight it needs water, nutrients, CO2 and minerals as well but any light...

Neither do I and I've used all versions of Windows so what don't you like about it? As I mentioned you can make it look and feel just like Windows 7 (which I do like) which imo is much better particularly for a desktop/laptop. If it's the interface then I guess so it look like it will be a...

Another laptop? So quick question how does your current laptop perform? Simple answer yes Complex answer depends Without going into major details about compression, codec's, bitrates etc. are only wanting to view streamed content? If so it really depends mainly on bandwidth and the platform...

Simplest answer don't use IE :p I wouldn't normally say use this instead rather than try and fix the problem but tbh there are better browsers out there: Firefox, Opera, Safari to name but 3 IMO IE is just well pants. If you have to use IE (not sure why!) you might want to try restarting in...

As far as I know Access (all versions) run on 1 CPU core, hyper threading is the realm of the O/S essentially multi core CPU(s) allow you to run multiple applications at the same time hyper threading can increase the efficiency of an application within a core providing it is designed to work...

(I hope) So I have finally decided that I have definitely had enough of this country, my career as it is and life here in general so I have started the process of applying for residency (and eventually citizenship) in....... drum roll....... New Zealand :D I'm not going to go into to...

Hi Dick could you double check the file name in the error is it mscomct2.ocx ? as I couldn't find a reference to a .ocx file without the c (typo maybe :p). Irrespective you might have to re-register the active x control you should be able to do this manually: Click Start, type cmd >...

Erm your job after all you are the IT guy with a diploma ;) (only pulling your leg). Sounds like you have been thrown in a bit at the deep end and this is no bad thing, I'm sure your employers want to 'test' you out and it will give you a chance to learn very quickly. First thing is don't...

2nd question first Rather than trying to sort each one out with each other I suspect your problem is with the change in networking groups in Win 8. Basically in Win 7 all computers can be in the same home group but in Win 8 they need to be in the same work group, rather then explain it here's...

This statement: Sorry I'm confused by this, do you mean reports before Wednesday were saying he was fighting for his life? If so yes your correct he wasn't dead then but then you say he was dead before Wednesday well if so why lie (all the media government and independent health agencies)...

Swoosh swing and a miss for the second time :p

Yes Governments/ politicians have lied I do not deny that and yes 'holes' in stories have happened (by the most part from unreliable sources) but your saying that every 'story' from every media source and every government has holes and therefore they are all corrupt please it is you who is being...

Well I guess it was only a matter of time before this cropped up here. It's very hard to resist simply rebuking these conspiracy 'theories' (a word that really doesn’t apply) and I know the majority of people that would believe this would be unassuaged by any rebuttal but good lord is every...

I recently got a new laptop with Win 8 and immediately installed http://classicshell.net it is a hugely customisable 'skin' for Win 8 so now I have a Win 7 look and feel OS and you can bypass that horrid metro screen. Oh and of course it's 100% free ;) Win 8.1 is an update worth it if you have...

You didn't offend me either or came off as a jerk, I also have respect for this forum and that is why I respond to threads like this here but no where else as generally it can spark a good discussion. You asked these questions but I'm afraid there no real answer to them as the majority of...

and :banghead: TBH It looks like you believe in something that someone else (or certain parts of the internet) does without investigating and or coming to your own conclusion based on the evidence provided because if you had I'm sure your opinion would be different or at least more...

I was about to independently answer at least 3 of these 'questions' and basically came up with the same answers as snoops but by quoting one of your sources i.e. wikipedia - check the birth certificate (as noted by snoops) it doesn't mention his race...

Ah sorry didn't make the connection between small rectangular things and disk meaning a flash drive :confused: yep they are not techincally drives but a disk and a drive can be viewed as different devices. Nice! anything interesting? I don't belive I did say that - I was probably presuming...

I'll have a go (without an internet search of course) in the UK and I think the US maybe elsewhere maybe a "Boom Box" ? or for our younger generation the coolest thing you could have in the 80's a massive very loud tape player, typically powered by about 8 D cell batteries carried around on your...
