  1. cak46: I tried your link & got the same thing you did .What were you looking for .Do you know the name of the member that started the topic if any of it is still there you might find it that way.Were you looking for this maybe: https://testmy.net/forum/t-1013.msg9346#msg9346
  2. It is usually a good idea to keep your video card updated.Do you have access to another monitor you could try? The monitor is rarely a problem but if you can get one to test & see if your monitor went bad it wouldn't hurt. What puzzles me is that you only have the one setting :"it's stuck on 16 bit, 640 x 480 resolution." I think this is the link to the problem.Any other members have an idea on how to correct this part of the problem.Could it be a corrupt file for the display? How & where would
  3. tdawnaz: Well you should have just said you were worried we would blow something off.We do appreciate your concern. I will take the steps to do it as safely as possible.I haven't even got any of the materials yet & I have already figured out a safe way to ignite the fuel mixture in the canon .Not with the igniter they suggest.The way I will do it at least to test its safety will allow me to do it at a distance. I'm going to put in this warning:PARENTS DO NOT LET YOUR CHILDREN BUILD OR USE A POTATO CANON WITHOUT YOUR SUPERVISION.If your children bring home PVC or metal pipe & fittings find out what they are up to.Monitor the sites they visit on the web.
  4. tdawnaz $ cak46: I would explain the difference in this & a pipe bomb but that would require a lot more on what a pipe bomb is.So I won't Anything assembled wrong can be dangerous.If a child starts bring home PVC pipe & starts building something with it The parents should ask some questions.Basically the potato acts as a saftey valve.It is dangerous if someone is in front of it.There are pneumatis potato cannons as well .they use compressed air.
  5. tdawnaz ;Well they might go to the link from here but the info on the potato cannon is readily available on the web.I doubt most parents would have the site blocked. the potato canon is even available commercially so it is not a pipe bomb.I would never give instructions to build a pipe bomb.The combustable I mentioned would not be available for minors to buy.Fallow Earth mentioned the other 2.Which might be a household item.Black powder is also not sold to minors.Although I was shooting a .22 rifle when I was 6 years old.I guess people taught about guns early have a different perspective.
  6. I usually leave this type of question to those that know more like php .But Ned_Flanders said he did what is in the quote above.I knew that was wrong.
  7. Hey all : heres a hint to help that right click/select all/copy before you spell check or post.That way if something happens you can just paste what you already typed back in.Its not to important if you had a small post but can save a lot of time if it was a large one.
  8. Ned_Flanders: The highest MTU is 1500 I'm not sure what happens when it is set larger probably goes to the default setting. Try the TCP/IP analyzer test here to see what it detects as your MTU.
  9. FallowEarth: well I'm probably not going to jump right on it but it is now in my things to get done list.I don't procrastinate forever.
  10. I've done a lot of plumbing with PVC pipe & never had a leak so I know how to glue it pretty well. I thought the either in the list might work pretty good .
  11. FallowEarth what is the power source for a potatoe cannon? I think I have seen them on TV .do they use compressed air?
  12. I picked other because you left out westerns .Unless you lump them with action I selected that too.
  13. tdawnaz : I'm a little late but happy Mother's Day.Mine has passed as well. I should wish it to the mothers that are still here.At least to the ones that are mothers & not to the ones that just gave birth but took no responsibility Or the ones that are child abusers.That's about as political as i'm going to get here.So again to those that deserve it.
  14. Version 6 chose the 2K OS Then it should have something for the 6 meg DL.Pm Van Buren he's the expert on this .I just thought i would guide you to the info you were asking .If you need more than that I will let Van help you.
  15. Anchorman:If you quit starting new topics everywhere I will see if I can find what you are looking for. You should be able to find the file you need by downloadind the latest zip file here:Version 6
  16. This is an easy solution .If you find something in the news section that you just have to comment on .Just bring it over to the regular forum.Either start a new topic or put it in the https://testmy.net/topic-4082 & see if anyone else has a comment on it.
  17. It works for me I have it in my favorites in IE .I have Solway search & its in it .Google worked in both.
  18. php : I usually check a topic I start until its dead.I decided I would get more comments without a poll.A poll is easy to just check & not leave a comment or opinion.Polls are good for some things but I wanted to see what members had to say about the topic.
