  1. Be advised if you try to install SP3 using windows update, it will take hours. Download SP3 from Microsoft download centre first all 316mB of it, then install from downloaded program.
  2. It seems, that my satellite isp has got cold feet, they have decided to cut off the UK from their transmissions. BskyB have sent letters to all outside uk transmitting satellite companies, with the threat of legal action. I have contacted BskyB telling them of the situation, that because of their threat, my broadband company will no longer connect me. I asked them when will I be supplied with BskyB satellite broadband, their answer is never, they dont supply such a system, but to get in touch with a UK supplier. Apparently my broadband supplier does not have a license to transmit into the UK, which they have to buy from BskyB, all abit political.
  3. My Broadband is via satellite, using a company that is now in Germany used to be by a uk based company, but this German company has bought them, and closed down the Uk branch. So I actually pay for my Sat connection in Euros to Germany. This has not been a problem for the last 5 years. But just recieved an E-mail from them stating that because of a legal dispute with BskyB they are no longer allowed to transmit to the UK. How do I find any info on a legal dispute between Teles-skydsl and BskyB?
  4. Does pressing Fn-f7 on keyboard help? (only works on Acer, this toggles touchpad on/off) What model of Acer laptop is it, there is a driver problem associated with the acer touchpad and Vista. You may need the new Acer touchpad drivers.

  7. many thanks for your replies, it is an 1800cc diesel, When it happened, she was just pulling away from a junction, she heard no unusual noises, car just stopped, but she tried to re-start it, now the engine will not even turn over on the ignition. can I tell if its an interference engine or not by looking in the engine compartment?
  8. Info needed, Cam belt has gone on my wifes car, which is a Ford Fiesta Classic Diesel 1996 (N reg) Do you think this is a garage job? or A repair someone can do following the haynes manual, if I can find one... PS:- Would the failure of the cam belt have caused other damage, ie: valves going through pistons....etc your guidance would be much appreciated... MEL.

  10. Great! Thats me then. Will i have to change my aerial splitter? I have the roof Aerial connected to a four way splitter connected to 4 TV`s
  11. I have also been informed, that if you purchase a top set box or freeview to pickup these Digital channels, you need to replace your analogue aerial to digital aerial, when the switch over happens. I can see the installation companies putting there prices up, if this is the case.
  12. I maybe able to help, PM me if required
  13. Short and sweet! I put crayfish at the head of the suspects!
