  1. 1) When I was 14 I was crawling in the sand at the beach and hit my knee on a little bolt that is used to keep the play structure in place. That little cut put me on crutches for that summer and I had to stop playing soccer for 2 years. It is fine now. 2) I can whistle while breathing in and out.

  3. Not a new hard drive, it has been in use a very long time. When I hit F10 on the logo screen nothing happens at all. it just keeps booting like nothing is happening. I tried using F8 and Del as well as Backspace and F1 to get into the bios but nothing seems to work. It's as if the keyboard isn't giving any input to the system but clearly it is.

  4. Those were some of the very first things that I tried. The cables are definetly in there properly. As for the Dust bunnies, I spent about 5 mins with an air can blasting ones that were about the size of my hand out from the fans and inside the PCI slots. I am pretty sure the problem is with the disk drive controller because the first message that I got was this drive does not contain and valid FAT partition information. On reboot the message didn't come but the computer would boot with a disk in the drive. "Impossible is a word to be found only in the dictionary of fools." Napoleon Bonaparte
  5. I was hoping you would get back to me. 1-No. Nothing ever happens. The compaq screen just sits on the monitor until which time it tries to find a boot disk or it goes to the network boot. 2- See above 3- Windows 98 4-Can boot from a floppy, but only to dos where no tools will load. I cannot even change drives. 5- Compaq was a second hand computer bought by a friend of mine. It isn't mine, I know better. "Impossible is a word to be found only in the dictionary of fools."

  6. Normally I would have had this figured out by now but compaqs give are a pain. Last night after fixing numerous other problems, I finally got this compaq deskpro 400 to boot into windows. This morning, the hard disk is nowhere to be found. Boot disk don't load tools anywhere because there is no drive to mount and I cannot seem to get into the bios to check on the disk controller. If anyone has any ideas please pm me or post them below. If you need more info, I'll be back from my exam in about 3 hours. "Impossible is a word to be found only in the dictionary of fools."

  7. Just walking through our registration dept. to talk to some buddies and I hear "Why don;t you wanna come to hooters with me tomorrow at 530"? This was asked of a friends gf. He also works here.

  8. I was really hoping I wasn't the only one to have this fear, but here it goes. Injections- Trypanophobia I also have an extremely severe phobia of Needles and Spiders. All spawn from when I was a little kid. Those at my DZ can ask me about the interesting stories over a beer sometime. Needles make me cringe.

  10. I had to manually add my personal address book and then that made it all the easier. I don't thing your ranting at all. There are a few things about lotus that really piss me off, a few of them you already mentioned. For the most part I do enjoy Lotus notes just because I can tie it into everything on my system and on our network here. Thank You again, that made life so much easier.

  11. Wow this is great, I just knew someone on here would be able to help me out. Thank You "Impossible is a word to be found only in the dictionary of fools." Napoleon Bonaparte
  12. I am at work and am getting tired of having to always manually enter the names of the managers that need to be notified when I make a shift trade. So, I am wondering, what do I need to be able to make a group in my lotus notes without bypassing the security that is on the program?

    Class Act

    Seeing as how we occupy the border just above you I think that entitles me to a pretty informed opinion of American politics. Personal attacks aside for a moment shrub, as I described is a pettite bush. Or a bush that is still growing. This term in was coined from the fact that he is George Bush Junior hence shrub. I am glad to see that there are others here who also share the same opinion that this was purely a political move. You don't have to agree with it, you don't even have to like it. Unfortunatly you are going to have to read it. "Impossible is a word to be found only in the dictionary of fools." Napoleon Bonaparte

    As great as this is, I suspect that this was purely for political gain. With the elections comming up soon, something tells me this was just to secure votes as he is not doing as well as most would like on the home front. Having said that, this was truely a very classy move on his part and great for morale of the troops. Nice move shrub, I mean Bush. "Impossible is a word to be found only in the dictionary of fools."
