I was 20 y and my bride was 17y , seriously, I got the best of the deal, But as usual I f**ed up , (story of my life ) just glad we are still best of friends , Edit Oh did you mean when the photo was taken ? time to fess up, No it is not me , it was emailed to me by a friend , she said the resemblance was incredible,she added the coments about the trout ! Bitch !

gotmilk I share your frustration , sorry I cant advise on Conway Corp But I know what you mean by the "UP TO " bit , I have a DSL connection in the UK With "UP TO 8Mb " estimated at least 5Mb. when I signed up for a year , But after much they have reduced the price to my old 256Kb service the best I have ever seen on this "UP TO 8Mb service " is

I just wish Aggr , I guess I was near the back of the queue when those attributes were handed out "All mouth and trousers" , as we say in the UK ,

lol what finger , Hope you don't mind the changes Voltageman and as a way of recompense I have posted my pic from a few years, or was that decades ago

I just realized it is a double celebration for me , xx years old AND I YEAR AGO TODAY, I JOINED TMN , BTW, Tommie I was sure I hung my coat over the office security camera !, the picture caught me in a candid moment discussing my sectaries request for a pay raise ,

Hold on OBDXXX , Fdisk will wipe out your computer and it will need to have the o/s reinstalled +all the drivers,software etc. not a step to be taken lightly , you still havent said why you need a uninstaller ?

Hi ODBXXX , What exactly are you trying to uninstall , Fdisk is a killer of all ,including the o/s , nothing more than that, good for formating the hard drive etc , are you trying to remove everything from the computer ?or just a aplication ,

I can recomend FDISK from 9x , does it for me

Hi Keith , Yeah, it should , I think this maybe the problem , go into the bios (f2 , delete ,f8 etc , you may see which one on start up ( press ** for settings ) scroll down to settings for h/d , it should be on auto detect , if not hit enter button . and change it , if all is ok there , check boot sequence , try setting 1st floppy, 2nd cd, 3rd h/d save and exit , if this fails it's back to basics time , start again , take out thr new hard drive , check all the cable connections on the way , have you any instructions that came with it , regarding jumper settings etc. it should plug and play though, if no luck after doing that can you put back the old hard drive , and run ok with that ? , was H/d change an upgrade or did the old drive fail ? the last possibility is you have a u/s new hard drive , but unlikely in my opinion .,

Hi Keith , have a read of = http://www.bestpricecomputers.ltd.uk/freehelp/ntldr_missing.htm, it explains it better than I can Regards Roco Uk

I am getting very slow speeds in the USA every evening (your time ) been like that for more than a week, speeds to the rest of the world seem OK to me here in the UK

I didn't exactly cheat , I am just easily led that was 15 years back and me and the ex. wife are still good friends , we have meals out together every week or so , and have holidayed together , and I have a lot of respect for her , I just guess I am not the marring kind of guy, Storm I am puzzled by your remark "she's the only girl i've ever had a good relationship with " , all of mine have great, some more so than others , bless them all , I am still friends with them all, I guess it must be down to my good looks and natural charm

lol I fully agree with you there Tommie , over here ( UK) we have old money and new money , the old money from tea ,cotton ,coal (squires and the right honorable's )can be good fun, and treat their staff OK , they were born to it , but much interbred, the real pain in the ass is the new money, they found some scam to make millions ( city bankers rhymes with Wa*kers ) from the working class , they think own the world and it's brother, called "Chocolate boxes" , all fancy wrapping ,but not much inside

Story of my life

:shock:after that last storm with Water my lower lip is still trembling ,

storm take some advice from a old boy , if you know in your heart that you really love, dont let go , coz that love dont come along that often , and I know that for sure , but unfortunatlyfor me , the wife found out

thanks Mudmanc , we have a system that seems to work (tradition etc ) although it is getting a little frayed around the edges these days personally I have great admiration for the American openness and hospitality, we tend to be a bit dour in the UK , until we get to trust folk, I think our one great redeeming feature is the ability to laugh at ourselves, unlike some of our continental friends I got to go , it's time for me to practice my British stiff uper lip routine, ( I say caruthers, I have just been in coversation with those American bounders , by jove, they seem quite decenct chaps really , ) ect , slow down time is here again , no spell check and TMNSpeed test stalls again on server 1 &2 bbreports test run but comfirms my lose of speed dowm 1834 Kbps am GMT now 151Kbps at 22.43 GMT I will try and post this

:2funny: I had a voice activated car ,but it stopped working when the wife left

lol , not suprising with all the time zone you have over there , I am still having trouble with the size of th U.S, kinda makes the UK look a bit small thanks for the link , I must study some more , guess I have the little Englander mentality

Hi mudmanc , yeah I am happy enough with this speed , but come 15.00 hrs Testmy.net time ( 22.30 onwards GMT )my speeds drop to a crawl, it's been like that for the past week or so , it was ok b4 then , Btw, your up early now 13.15 GMT (dinner time )

trust me to miss all the fun ,it's now 12.30 GMT (5.30 am TMN time )and it sure makes a differance , :::..

:2funny:

lol tommie I must take you to task over engine revs , it is much better to run a engine at a high speed than to keep reving it up , short stabs on the gas pedal injects excess fuel which washes the oil off the cylinder bores and causes extra wear , note F1 race engines thay start , run up to around 4-5 K hold it steady , raise it to 9k and go, so where were we, are yes H/Drives . no mine isn't made by Ferrari , just a common or garden western D , ich
