  1. The second one is definitely a problem, as the only thing holding the lenses are my hands. As for the first proposed problem, I'm still thinking it is bright enough, but where the lenses have way different focal length, that might be a problem. I'm going to get a couple of (30?)mm lenses from my moms camera case and see if I can get anything else to happen.
  2. I hate my computer. It can't find any Windows OS's. I only need my CD burning software. I can't find the install disc for it. It came with my CD burner. And installing from a download requires you to purchase it. If I had the install disc for Windows and NERO (the CD burning software), I would do a fresh install. Can Linux make ISO files?
  3. The reason I said that you need a special program wasn't because there's only one in the world, but I'm just stating the fact that you need to install an external program to burn it. And yes, I learned the hard way that Windows integrated burning is a bad idea for ISO's. If I can get my desktop to run again, I have a good program that can burn ISO's and do a lot more. It's called NERO. I just had a thought. If I can make an ISO of my entire Windows partition, then format the HDD with the non-working install, I can then put the ISO back on the HDD, thus I can keep all my stuff like it never happened. Could that work? I complain about ISO's, but one may save my desktop....ironic.....
  4. I'm not trying to project a computer screen. I'm projecting this: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/404.png It has four brightness settings. The room I'm trying to project it in is almost as dark as it can be. And the wall I'm using is about 4 feet away. I can get it to project into a large image, but it is inverted and blurry.
  5. Who wants to see a funny &%# video?

  6. Reinstalled Linux, Linux reinstalled boot loader, Windows still won't load. Now what?
  7. ISO files suck. I can see whey they exist, but you need a special program to burn them. I'm trying to fix my desktop PC by reinstaling Linux, but the file you download is an ISO. I burned it to a disk thinking Windows would extract the files inside the ISO then burn those files. Now I have to burn it again with a certain program to do it right.I HATE ISO FILES! THEY SUCK!
  8. Go into your order of preferred networks. Put yours at the top with auto connect on, disable auto connect on everything else. If you do not know how to do this, google it. It'll be in your wireless network connection setting somewhere.
  9. When I press the save button, I get the error: Erreur E/S 112Then it puts an empty file on the PC. If the file is old, and I'm making changes, it empties the file and gives that error. I'm going to uninstall/reinstall GP5 to see if it fixes. I just need to know why it does that in case it doesn't fix or if it happens again.NOTE: GP5 is a program called Guitar Pro 5. I'm running the latest version 5 (v 5.2). The latest latest version is 6.something.I just uninstalled/reinstalled. It didn't work
  10. First question is correct. Second question is half correct. I'm not using a fan to blow air out. After the compression stage, the air decompresses by forcing its self out the back. That gives it thrust. The combustion stage uses a bit of that air to bur fuel. The air that was used to bur fuel becomes more compressed. The compressed, hot air pushes the turbine in the back of the engine to drive everything else.What I'm saying is, instead of burning fuel to drive everything, use an electric motor. This will eliminate the need for fuel, but leave the rest of the process the same. Air comes in, gets compressed, forces its self out the back at a speed faster that when it went in.
  11. Still making videos. Just finished uploading one. Check 'em out here: http://www.youtube.com/user/qazxsw21000

  12. I thought this was going to be a topic about adding a secondary system for when the primary fails. You know, electromagnet stuff.Anyways. I would rather be on the interstate if my brakes fail, so long as it ain't busy. On the side of the left lane, there is usually a big, grassy ditch as a barrier. On the side of the right lane, there is usually a gravel shoulder with a grassy area just to the side of that. If none of those is true, then I may be going over a bridge, or going up hill, or in one of the few areas like that.Also, there may be a guard rail to the side of the shoulder, or even rock cliffs. Scraping the car against those kind of hard creates a lot of friction. I would also put it in neutral, then turn the engine off and put the key back in the "on" position without starting it back. All the cars I've seen so far will let you steer it as long as the key is "on", not "off" or "a(ux?)".
  13. I'm not saying replace all turbines, just the one in the very back. Keep the compressors. Actually, keep all turbines and only replace the combustion chambers. Do you think that'll help the airflow?
  14. Actually, I never thought of that. It makes since. I also had a different idea. Since I have the HDD with a fresh install of Windows XP, I could boot to it and replace the start up files on the broken install with the fresh install.
  15. It'll be based on something that I won't reveal 'til later. Since it's small and not too powerful, it'll use plastic instead of titanium. And it can be powered from batteries or "wall power", thus eliminating a lot of electrical and fuel systems. Put a small net in the front end to prevent it from sucking stuff in, unless you want it to (the parts are fairly cheap plastic). In case you ain't figured it out yet, the design is based on a jet engine. Think about it. A jet engine (turbine) sucks in air at low speed and pushes it out at high speed. How jet engines work: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ Remove the ignition chambers and turbine, replacing them with an electric motor. Give the fan speed control and airflow direction control, and you have a good fan. You can't deny that it's a good idea.
  16. So, before school went out last school year, one of my teachers gave me a PC. I took my Win. XP CD to school and installed over his install after the HDD from mine didn't work in it. I knew I wouldn't get it home, so I took everything out abd brought those home, leaving the tower and motherboard.Well, the reason my HDD didn't work is because it has 2 OS's on it. First time I turned it on, nothing happened. The second try, Linux tried to take over, but failed.When I brought everything home, I lost the Win. XP disc. I put my HDD back into my PC, but when I try to turn it on, Nothing happened. It gave me start up beeps. Turn out it was for my 2MB video card. I removed it, turned it back on, success. Then I find out that the BIOS forgot that the HDD has two OS's on it. It tried to go strait into Windows.When it tries to go into Windows, it says it did not shut down correctly, what do I want to do? Whatever I choose, it freezes. How do I repair my Windows install, or am I going to have to reinstall everything?
  17. GOSH DARN IT!!! I was wanting to be in bed 2 hours ago, but I'm still up and thinking about food. I don't want to go to sleep hungry. Too bad I guess.

  18. When my mom was in the hospital, I think it was two or three more people came in for the same thing, and one died. Not only that, but my mom was driving most of the day that day. She had been home just a few minutes when hers started leaking (it didn't pop/rupture). When it happened, she had a small seizure. What if she hadn't made it home yet when it happened. She would've been driving and crashed.There was a bunch of small thing that could have caused her to die if they had been different.BTW: When I say DS, it is a game system. It's the Nintendo DS.
  19. That was the plan. Using only one lens, I could get it to project onto the wall. I t would either be smaller than I wanted and blurry, or just the right size, blurry and inverted. I would add the second lense to focus it and re-invert the image, but it always came out too blurry to tel if it was re-inverted.The game has 4 brightness settings.
  20. That's the program I use and I found that option after looking over it a few times. After I seen it, I was like "Oh...." So, yea. I fixed the problem.
  21. I have two convex lenses of different unknown focal lengths to do it with. I also have two concave lenses of the same unknown focal lengths. Those two, however, cannot separate. How do I project the image on my game onto my door.
  22. When I was younger, I would wonder what it'd be like to be adopted by someone for some reason. Heck, I still wonder that. I have came very close to finding out, though. A couple of days ago, I was sitting on the couch at my grandma's house. I was thinking about random things because I didn't have my DS with me to play. That's when I started to think about how lucky I am. About three years ago, my dad had a massive heart attack. He thought he was just sick and it'd pass after a few days. A few days later, he finally decided to go to the hospital. The doctor told us that he had a heart attack. He also said that the only reason my dad was still alive is because my dad took Aspirin every morning when he got up. The doctor also said that if my dad didn't go to the hospital that day, he would have died. One year ago this past Easter, my mom suffered a brain aneurysm. My mom was one of the luckiest of those people. Heck, when the ambulance arrived, she didn't want to go, and the ambulance people couldn't take her if she didn't want to. My dad left for the hospital after the ambulance left -AND BEAT IT-. A few minutes after she arrived to the hospital (in London, KY), they put her in the helicopter and flew her to UK (Lexington, KY). I was thinking, what if my dad hadn't taken Aspirin every morning or chose not to go to the hospital that day? And, what if my mom wasn't one of the lucky people who survive? Both of my parents would be dead right now. My uncle live with us, but he isn't exactly fit to take care of me and my younger sister. It's scary to think about, but it could have very easily happened.

      Funny video, but the theme song is kind of boring.
