    How do you fix a damages CD?

    Most Fellowes product is available through decent size stationers... Officeworks, Corporate Express, National 1, Boise Cascade, South-Eastern, Allstat... Big W and K-Mart are also likely stockists. Fellowes national office is in Tullamarine (Vic). If you ring them they might be able to tell...

    Printing the contents or a CD or a file folder

    Thanks Jim Boy, exactly what I was looking for. I've just tried it with three different CD-Rs and it's very easy. There WAS a thread on this board a while back, but I searched through about 8 months' worth of topics and couldn't find it. .txt is such an easy format for documents, very easy...

    Printing the contents or a CD or a file folder

    Trying to clean up my CD-Rs, none of which have any labels or tables of contents. Is there any way to print, or save in document format, a list of the files on a CD-R or a file folder, (so that when I put in a disc with mp3's stored on it, I can get a print-out of the names of the 80 or 100...

    How do you fix a damages CD?

    I use a scratch removal kit made by Fellowes. Costs somewhere around $15, good for at least 20+ uses.

    .wmv files

    Cheers mate. I'll re-install Quicktime and find out... Previously tried Media Player, Real Player, and a few various DivX players, tried installing codecs and this & that... I also get the same blur happening when I play back SOME mpg/mpeg files, but with wmv it happens all the time. I...

    .wmv files

    Can't play 'em, Windows Media Player doesn't wanna know about 'em. Version 7 or 8 I think it is, I've got Windows 98 so couldn't run Version 9 when I downloaded it. Tried downloading a few other players, keep getting the same problems. The picture is just a huge blur of pink, orange, and...

    CD to mp3 - any program recommendations?

    Tried FreeRip, worked fine on most occasions... still the occasional blue screen though - copy protection issue maybe? There's one particular double-CD it refused to rip. Thanx for the suggestions folks, when I have time I'll hopefully get around to trying all of them.

    CD to mp3 - any program recommendations?

    Looking for a program that will run on Windows 98, which rips from CD to hard drive in mp3 format. Downloaded dbpowerAMP - it loads the tracks onto my hard drive, but playback is all scrambled. I used to have an older version that worked well, but lost it when I had to make some changes to...

    HELP please - rooted modem?

    Last few days I've had a horror run with disconnections, slow connection speeds, failed dial-ups etc... I use two ISPs, and all of the above happens with both of them... I have created the same settings on my housemate's PC, and everything works fine there. I'm presuming it's a problem...

    Best Music Download Option

    I use Kazaa and don't generally have many problems with it. For my experience with it, download speeds are generally a bit better than Napster and WinMX, and it's usually easier to find rare stuff BUT lately I've had a lot of people downloading stuff from me, that I didn't even know I had...

    SIMcity 3000

    Played it last night and was well on top... didn't want to go to bed but it was 3am and I had a job interview this morning. :p Got to the stage where I was actually turning a $10,000 annual profit, and had the city up and running for 75 years before having to retire. Figured out it's...

    SIMcity 3000

    Most important I reckon is to avoid taking out loans at the start, and if you run into the red you take out small loans of $5,000 to $15,000. It makes the debt burden a bit easier, and makes it essential you plan your city carefully. Been finding it easier to start with a VERY small city of...

    SIMcity 3000

    I've been loaned this game for my PC, and it's very challenging... too challenging one might say! I've figured out some good ways of planning cities and utilities, but one thing which always proves very difficult is balancing the budget... I can't seem to make a city last longer than 20...

    F***ing codecs!!!

    Thanx for your suggestions folks. Over the weekend I re-formatted my PC, re-installed Media Player (6.4) and downloaded a DivX codec through Kazaa. Working better now than before, definitely. Still some things I can't watch, but I'm presuming they are problems with files downloaded through...

    F***ing codecs!!!

    Recently I downloaded a newer version of MS Media Player (7.1) from NetGuide magazine's CD. Since installing it, I can play a few video clips that I couldn't before, but almost all the stuff I've burned onto CD in the last year or two that previously played fine, won't play because it...

    If you have an already animated picture you want to use, it's the same procedure. If you want to create your own aniimation sequence. I recommend you...er.... ask someone else for help. :) BTW, your avatar looks like a woman taking her dress off. We need more of that sort of thing at BigFooty!

    From memory its a .GIF file you need to change it to, not .JPEG. The way you do this is to go to File, select "Save As", and from there, select the .GIF format. Has to be 50x50 pixels or less, and under I think 20KB. Any problems, feel free to PM me and I can try to help.

    Num Lock

    Is "num lock" when you get your face stuck between a pair of breasts? Y'know... in that position where you shake it from side to side and go "numnumnumnumnumnumnum".

    Lingering internet site addresses

    You can clear all of them by going to the start menu. Start > Settings > Taskbar & Start Menu > Start Menu Programs > Documents Menu [CLEAR] Sorry, don't know how to clear just a single address, other than visiting all the other addresses to send the dud one to the bottom, then typing in a...

    International Cricket Captain Series?

    I have ICC (England County) and ICC2 (England vs Australia). In ICC, I played a season as Yorkshire, and only won about 5 games. In the end I couldn't be stuffed adjusting aggression levels, field placings, etc every farking two minutes. ICC 2 didn't run very well on my PC - not a game...

    What do you use to download music?

    I use WinMX, but it has been playing up a bit recently. Aimster is loaded on my PC and I have used it a bit, but it's crap now and there's no good stuff on it. Most people elect to refuse uploads too which defeats the prupose of the whole thing. I've tried Kazaa, Morpheus, Bearshare, Audio...

    vmo files

    Does anyone know how to convert a .vmo file into an mp3? The .vmo file is a dictaphone (voice) file recorded on my Siemens SL45 mobile phone. I've transferred the file off my phone and onto my computer, but I've got no idea how to convert to mp3. mp3 would be the best file type, as it's a...
