I think thats the only problem with the Bitorrent invasion I have , they don't like to step out of their comfort zone . The lounge does n't talk about software problems or whats a good book or movie here in the lounge , they post in the section that supports it .
Sorry for droning on but just my thoughts . :dabs:
Drone on as much as you like, Peat. Absolutely no problem at all - you're completely wrong, tho' :lol:
Most folk who mainly post in the lounge hardly ever post other stuff in the relevant sections 'cos they want to talk about their software problem/the movie they watched/defective HD with people that they usually talk to.
Which reminds me, I need an excellent wireless mouse and keyboard. I don't care if it's expensive, I just want it to work properly.
I'm going to use my PC as the main media centre for my living room, plug it into the telly, like. So I'll need them in lieu of a remote control.
Any recommendations?
Ewe need to remember that the bittards think the whole internets revolves around torrents tho' and that this forum was created solely for them to get invites to sites. It didn't exist before the invite section as far as they're aware.Quote:

Thanks, tho' :emo:
Maybe I was a little hasty with the 'I don't care if it's expensive' comment. I plainly do.
Does your older cheaper version work from across the other side of the room, like - also have you dropped it and found that it still wurks?
I'm here because Biggles told me this board was in desperate need of someone with my charm, wit and grasp of the human condition, and I can never turn a man down when he's on his knees.
mine aren't bluetooth, like, so they don't work properly from the other side of the room (this room is huge tho'). They wurk fine upto about 10-15ft away, like.Quote:

If you're computer supports booting from usb, you can do that(boot movix from usb) and save yourself the hassle of making the fat16 partition for Movix. It works just as well as booting from cd, when you want to boot windows just remove the usb jump drive and voila!
I come here to read stuff like that. It makes my heart singh.Quote:

either of those would do what you want, like, cheaper ones probably would too.Quote:

My set-up works fine now as it is, wrt watching suff direct off the PC via the telly. I just gotta keep going back and forth the PC to change what I'm watching.
Oh yeah, I've also got to sort it so that my PC has the telly and the monitor running off it so I don't have to keep switching the blue cable twixt the two. Might need a bit of hardware, like, as from memory, I think I've only got one blue port at the back of my computer.
Sorry if that's a bit technical.
