Forgot about the driver packs, I'll give them a go.
-
Can anyone reccomend a 'free' utility that will search my PC and tell me what are the latest or even correct drivers. I have an oldish PC that requires a rebuild but don't have the driver disks and the manufacturer website is not much help as it lists all the drivers for all the version of this particular model.

Right, spoken to Aggy at Net-Ctrl and have now got a quote to supply a managed solution, but due to the cost I have to investigate two further options, will try Xirrus but who else do you reccomend I contact?

Office 2003 does work. got it loaded on my netbook running W7 Pro.
-
But would that incur roaming costs using an android phone abroad? That could be more expensive that renting a sat nav instaed.

Just make sure before you buy as not all have facility for an SD card. Mine does not but has room on internal memory for Florida and UK at same time, enough for me.

Not really had too much problem with it, been OK so far. When I was looking for one, it was the one most suggested, but that was 18 months ago and things may have changed since then, but as far as I'm concerned and the amount we use it its OK. It did have a mad session once though, going down to cornwall, it got fed up and decided that instead of going along the motorway we were in fact in the middle of the field at the side and kept trying to redirect us back around to join the motorway we were actually already on! A quick reset and all was well again...Just don't think Bruce liked the easrly morning! Yes we do call it Bruce, we use the Australian voice and its like the voice of the gods suddenly booming out i.e. Bruce Almighty. People did wonder when we said we were taking Bruce with us to Florida!

Took our own to Florida on holiday (too costly to hire, I'm a cheapskate) earlier this year and it was brilliant. Could not have done it without, take a wrong turning, no probloem, let me re-direct you! Ours is a Tom Tom One bought in the UK with UK maps and just bought and downloaded the Florida maps to it.

Sorry, forgot to mention that my idea was only theoretical in nature (note to mods: you can remove the thread if you wish, appologies)

Its time and really thats as issue as trying to convert them to mpg takes a while with my pc (I know from putting a couple of DVDs on her Ipod for her) so though a quick convert to iso would be the best but just looking for a quick and easy prog to convert it to an iso.
-
Whats the best iso creator so that I can put some DVD's on my netbook for daughter when on holiday. Whats the best to play them back, Media Player Classic or VLC VideoLAN, or is there a better way without having to convert them to video files?

Mission Impossible...? Help needed

Make sure on the main screen its set to Stereo input not microphone, its a drop down box near to a microphone symbol and a slider for sound level. -
Sorted now, just needed to change the format of the date I was comparing it to!
-
Had a look aroung and got a script to work but just going the extra mile now and want to sort all the files out. I need to compare file creation dates and then depending on their date move them to a certain folder. Got the vbs code below but it just seems to copy everyfile into the 2009-10 folder even if its date stamp is 2008? Anybody spot my mistake? dim oFSO, oFolder, srcfolder, tgtfolder, oFile, creationdate srcfolder="C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents\pupils\Pupil 1" set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") set oFolder = oFSO.GetFolder(srcfolder) for each oFile in oFolder.files creationdate = datevalue(oFile.DateCreated) If (creationdate >= "01/09/2009") And (creationdate <= "31/08/2010") then tgtfolder="C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents\pupils\Pupil 1\2009-10" oFSO.MoveFile srcfolder & "\" & oFile.name , tgtfolder & "\" elseif (creationdate >= "01/09/2008") And (creationdate <= "31/08/2009") then tgtfolder="C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents\pupils\Pupil 1\2008-09" oFSO.MoveFile srcfolder & "\" & oFile.name , tgtfolder & "\" end if next set oFolder = nothing : set oFSO = nothing

Not quite what I was expecting, oh well, suppose I should have known better!

But how would I get it to go through each child's folder in the class folder? needs some kind of loop?
-
I would like to have a script that I can run in a class folder (that folder has all the childrens folders which contain their work) that will create a new folder in each child's folder called '2009-10' then move all their work (excluding folders) into the new folder, leaving it ready for the new years work. Do it manually at the moment. It must be possible but haven't a clue how to do it.
-
Think that about answers that then, I'll go and order some cans or air then :-)
-
But wou;ld it work for just blowing dust from filters etc, nothing major. Could be more cost effective than buying cans of air which is what point I'm at now.
-
Done that now, just get a screen with scrolling messages, 'Checking if I am the group manager"' and then 'I am the group manager' with date and time added. Did the dmesg in a terminal window from the menu and had what you were looking for but really cant see anything catastrophic (but then again not really sure what I'm looking for or at!). Its sat at its Gui at the moment so will see what I can do when/if it goes again.

Still using Report Assist 2009 at school and we have a problem with one teachers reports (all the others are fine). When printed her reports show large text and looks like its double spaced ending up with a report nearly 15 pages long for each child. Anyone come across this before nad know how to fix it. Can't find anything in the help file.

Have my Fog server installed on Ubuntu and all was well untill I allowed it to upgrade to v10, now something seems to have been corrupted somewhere as if it runs it only works for so long then the screen blanks (think its still running as if I hit the power button theres disk activity and it shuts down). Is there a way of reinstalling Ubuntu without losing my FOG installation? Tried pressing ESC at startup and selecting the FIX option but it seems to just download updates and then I have problems when I boot back in to the GUI?
-
Its XP at the moment, but slight delay on matters as my Ubuntu FOG machince seems to have gone loopy, was OK till I allowed Ubuntu to upgrade itself to the latest version.
