Every couple months, my cable modem acts screwy. I lose my connection and I have to unplug the modem to get it back. Anybody have anyidea what causes this? It is rather annoying!

help with IBM - please!

I am having trouble installing windows XP on my girlfriend old laptop! Can anyone give me a few pointers, I have searched the net with no success.??

I started the computer up and put the XP install disc in the DVD drive. I started the instal process, and it crapped out halfway through the formating of the hard disk. This was due to a unsecured HD. I fixed that problem, and rebooted from the CD, but now I get a not enough memory error from the install CD. It says I need 64MB of RAM to load windows. There is 32MB on the board, and a 64mb chip in one of the two memory slots. The computer is a IBM thinkpad 600. with a 300MHz processor.

My girlfriend only uses the computer for Microsoft Office and email. I didn't have a copy of the old Windows NT version, that is why I am trying to install XP. Does anyone know how I can get the laptop to recognize the memory? I was thinking of installing a free version of linux so that I could see if the memory chip was bad and then install the XP from there. But, I'd rather not waste all that time if I don't have to.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

PS. I also tryed running a memory test from the easy setup BIOS screen. It does not work.

eSTRIP view

My desk is going to be awfuly cluttered as soon as I get my pc up and running with another monitor! Has anyone experimented with monitor switches? I want to run dual monitors off both of my desktops and posible have the option to have a spare hookup for my powerbook. If anyone has any tips, like brands to stay away from, let me know. Thanks.

All I need is an iPOD and some more time to begin a site and podcasting!
Time is a funny thing, I desire it more than money. It ranks right up there; only second to Love!

Paul,
Are you in need of some more banners? Did you get the images I sent you? For your student page? type

paul,
do you want me to load the pictures to the site or send them to your school email? I couldn't figure out how to send you a direct email from the site. Which icon is the email icon?

podcasting 2

Shawnr
I checked out the chanel 101 site, I didn't even know it existed till today. I thought I was the only one that still knew of SCUD the disposable assassin! Hence my username!

I want to start posting podcasts, but I currently do not have webspace or a domain to keep them at. Is there a free place to post podcats?

How exactly did you set up your television to play online content?

Thanks for the great list of sites!!

ipodder.org

I want to purchase an iPOD and start recording and publishing podcastes! It sounds to be a great way to mass communicate my daily thoughts and ramples. If you haven't heard about ipodder.org, check it out. It seems very simple, look for a link soon to my first web downloadable podcast.

You don't need an ipod to listen, you can listen on your desktop pc too!

Has anyone on elmwoodstrip.com used this software or published a podcast? Maybe we can start a elmwoodstrip.com based iPodder club. we can all create daily or weekly shows and post them for listeners nationwide!

lousy weekend

I did absolutely nothing this weekend. It was nice and relaxing, BUT there always seems to be a monkey wrench! I decided to go to the Apple store at noon yesterday, and my hood blew up. Yes, the safety latch and the lock both failed and my 2001 Dodge Ram Truck hood flew up, bent and would not close. I had it towed to the shop today, and it is going to cost $1700!!! For a hood a latch and two hinges. I wish I lived in the city with decent public transport!
I agree, people should respect free things, free is a whole lot better than $1,700.! Car manufacturers make too much money!
