Thanks, So I was right not to fix the socket, or even take the plate off ;) Leave well alone sounds like a good plan to me. If I need to fabricate an extra long cable, or any other mains cable for that matter, what do I need to do in order for me to "install" that cable on site (residential...

Hi all, I work for myself offering IT support. I often do CAT5/6 cabling and if additional electrics are needed I advise that the customer needs an electrician to do the work. I was on a job last week and whilst under a desk plugging in my laptop, I noticed the socket spark, I took the front...

Why cant they just ring up head office and ask them to fax or email it over?

Well the fence panel between ours and next door came out again, next door put it back in the last few ttime so I thought I better had. I wish I hadnt in a way, got fence done in 2 minutes, turned round to see the top of one of my shed stood up against the wall sort of wedged between the wall...

probably not worth the cost, I imagine the PSU blew, doubt anything else but you never know. Could call local repair people, how much is the printer worth? if its an expensive one it might be worth the manuf's repair charge

Ive had things off them before, delivery was very fast, I'll bet you have them Monday or Tuesday

Theyls blame it on anything but the weather, global warming, waste disposal, recycliny, car fumes, no doubt they'll start having "wind tax" soon.

Most can, depending on the versions of both works and word, when you come to save it it will give you a warning, just save as a word doc. Not sure about the other way about, or what versions it applies to.

Gcol you have such a short memory ! I'm just outside Blackburn - same place I was when you sent methose irwin bits !

Not for me it doesnt, I have no need whatsoever to measure capacitance, years ago I hade a seperate cap meter but had a use for it then. A heating engineer might, but I certainly dont.

Been pretty windy up here as well (Lancs) couple of roads closed, crap blowing all over the place, my fence come down again (one of those things you slot in between 2 concrete posts), no chance of fixing it till the wind dies down then I'll make sure if NEVER comes out again lol. Giant sign on...

Thanks for the info, I know ghost wouldnt recognise the file system but I've done sector by sector copies before with ghost and was assuming that might have worked, anyway, as it happens, the machine booted fine, all you have to do is copy a few folders over to a new drive, mark it as active and...

I've had my fluke 73 for years and years, it doesnt do capacitance but I have no need for it so it serves me well. Its been dropped, clanged, banged, had mains put through it on just about every setting and still going strong. It was very expensive at the time as autorangers wernt that common...

Hi all, Have someone that has a failing HDD in a mac, currently running OS9. What I would like to do is ghost the drive. Now I know absolutely nothing about MAC's but I assume that if I took the failing drive out, put it in a normal pc and ghosted it onto a new drive, then assuming that ghost...

It could also be 1001 other things

I've also had problems with copy/paste from firefox, I copy, then go to paste and theres nothing on the clipboard. I've found that if you do it a couple of times it will work, I've also found that right click/copy and then paste works better than ctrl c/v. I havnt really looked into it, until...

The idea itself is sound, but would have been better years ago in the early days of battery powered tools when keyless chucks wernt as common, as mentioned, takes a couple of seconds to change bit, and that tool looks cheap and nasty to me!

why then is there a big blue button that says "Img" on it? I thought it was so you can do things like this My opinion is they dont like images because it slows down an already painfully slow board. PS thats an advert for the litle green square company ;) ______________________________...

Yeah they have that, asylum in many cases = money - OURS!

Not uncommon, does it to all sorts of files, you will probably find if you save the attatchment rather than opening it it works fine. Anyways you could try this http://windowsxp.mvps.org/imgassofix.htm
