Ask the obvious questions first. Are they bulk discs? Does it happen to all the Discs? Does it happen to an alternate brand of Blank Disc? Has this problem occurred before? Does the Disc work in another machine? What does the Drive manufacturer say about that type of disc? Does the drive need a Firmware update? Is the Drive Lens clean? What has changed if it is a New Problem, or since the last successful time it work

Well, I guess you'll have to do what you feel is proper. I can live with being Banned from WinCustomize, if you choose to take that track. I can abide by the consequences of my actions. If you want to Ban me for not agreeing with you and being vocal about it, well there ya go. If you want to ban me for questioning the validity of your sales practices (as with the DesktopX 3 PRO issue.) Well there ya go... I have been here since the very beginning of WC
No, it means I do not have the proper skills..or am lacking some oratory ability to make myself understood. It is a failing on my part.
In truth I do not expect to win an argument. I am not arguing to win anything. I am not arguing, at all. I make what I feel are my points about Brads Statements. If you agree then you do, if ya don't..you make your own points. I was responsible for my actions and reaped the rewards or penalties for my business decisions. I dealt with my customers face to face, where one is directly responsible for ones statements. Marginalizing a demographic becaus
Yes Jafo, you have a point..My belief that he's wrong. You are right on that, and I thank you for pointing out my omission. I admit I am a bigot. There's no shame in that. I have a big head,I think it is genetic predisposition. Also I think my wife and Daughter think I am unhinged as well. I find they hide all the sharp objects here in the house. Legal Dis
I have nothing against Brad. I have nothing against StarDOck. I love WC, WindowBlinds, the whole schmear.I am not attacking Brad, I am calling attention to the fact that what he is saying is wrong. That's all, there is too it. Nothing more. I have no problem with folks telling me I am wrong. It happens all the time. I may not agree. I must be nuts, and it must be cont
Also since none of us here is a CEO, worker or whatever else it is you do at StarDock, we cannot understand what you are trying to say. Your "you're not a programmer" comment does not carry weight. You've never walked in my shoes, you've never walked in the l33t 19 year olds shoes, and aparrently you are not walking in the Parents shoes, that forks over $20 for software, by the blatant disregard you are showing towards that type of percieved group. As
Paint me with your Marginal Brush, and say maybe if I wrote software... I'd truly understand what you say. That is your mode of operation. I am used to that. Maybe people will see the tactic for what it is, a tactic. Bigotry is Bigotry, to sound redundant. Maybe I do,but it is a fact. And you are using a broad generalization and ridiculing a swath of people and a philosophy of their 'Free Software.' Too some this is equivalent to a religion, a
By the way, capitalism is bad, it promotes competion which creates casualties and fosters hate Capitalism is an economic ideology, it cannot foster anything. Human beings foster emotional expressions, and displays of those expressions. Human Beings are directly responsible for those expressions. Cap
I see your argument, and then expand... Nothing is free, then. The connection cost $$$, The Computer to use free cost $$$ and so on, the progression is never ending, in a strictly adhered to argument your are 100% correct. So I will not refute you further on that point, without more defined parameters. I believe ~touche~ is the term.
Lantec Personally I've NEVER come across free software. Either I've gotten a program that was a CRIPPLED advertisement for a better version or I've received a program that constantly DISPLAYS advertising while I use it or I had to go to a site filled with advertising to obtain it. Come on Ma
If you read the rest of the site, it goes like a journal. The ice in the majority of the sculpture is Rock Hard. He does say he can hear it cracking all over though.
Also please try and remember that a lot of StarDocks' 'FREE' software is the same as the 'FREE' Software you are complaining about. Limited Functionality, that is, and please do not state they are two different horses. 'Plus' vs 'Enhanced' vs 'FREE' any argument there does not carry water with me. StarDock is to be congradulated and held in accord with other free Developers, no more...no less. If you want to draw distinctions, and say look
Not to step on ya Brad, but you do not have a 'right' to promote software willy nilly. You have a 'right to free speech' as a Citizen of the United States, but are not gaurenteed a right for people to listen to you, agree with you or even like you. When acting as a moderator on a site, you do not have a 'right' to speak freely, you have the 'rights' the site owners and admin allow you to have. You as an owner and operator know, that 'rights' on a Site
Really Neat Looking.
Here's an interesting Site and read, for those of us that like the out of the way, or more Bizzare Stories. It seems somebody decided to create a piece of Artwork entirely out of Ice, in Alaska. He jury rigged a system to spray w
All but one of my Drives are the (self assemble) types. I usually run out to CompUSA and grab a USB Enclosure and then thrown in whatever I need. The additional nice thing about that is, if a drive dies, or something, you can throw another type of device into the case. Also if a Drive dies in a self contained unit, usually the firmware of the unit will not support another device type. (been there / Done that) There is even a really cool little unit tha
Yes to what Jafo said, with a few additions. Make sure if you are using WindowsXP to go to the Admin Tools and the Drive Utilities and make sure to actually set the drive letter on that drive. If you do not then XP will (not always but sometime) adjust the drive letter to the configuration of the machine. in this drives that a physically in the machine get prefference to the first drive letter, and then externals, and in this there is also a hierac
well if I have a virtual PC running on a diff machine, how does it react when I move to that machine with multiplicity, and then try to control the VPC?
What happened? Looks like somebody added a URL Filter to his post....YAY!!!! for our side!
I dunno, I have 5 machines here in my room, and all but one are headless and have neither keyboard nor mouse. The one being my laptop. I use RDP on them all, and short of a Major incident requiring a reinstall, I hardly touch them with KYB's or Mice, or Monitors. I do everything RDP. I used to use vnc, but it is too touchy for my needs (read too slow.) Now I use Native RDP from XP Pro, and PCAnywhere when I have sound issues ( I use one machine as a MP
I dunno Night Train I didn't see where that was possible.
How is this different from WindowsXP Remote Desktop or Full Blown Terminal Services? I mean I use PCAnywhere, and Remote Desktop on a Daily basis. Give me a comparison if you would. Is it possible to get some sort of comparison chart as a refference? Kinda like a shoot out.
Kobrano you are just spreading FUD (Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt.) For shame on you. I am sitting here typing this from yet another wonderfull LinuX LiveCD Unbubtu, and if it wasn't for OSS Development that wouldn't be possible. There is an over abundance of support out there for many given projects, and usually is only an IRC Chat away. People are getting very lazy when it comes to Software trouble shooting, and they are coming to think that a prob
It's not that I do not "get it" as you all say. That's not the issue with me. I get what you are saying, entirely. I understsand what you are trying to say. But I also feel that I have enough proof to support my points, and that is why I cannot budge on what I believe. Brad, I listed options available to you. I do not think you would do such, but you never truly know someone. XX I do not Troll, I usually say what I mean and me
