I must say I love gmail. I have nearly 7-8 gmail accounts but 2 are primary which I use on a daily basis. Gmail gives you ample amount of space, google chat, labs, themes, blog, orkut, reader, books and lots more...I love gmail, although I love my hotmail too but I feel more secure with gmail. The 2-point verification is unbeatable. The best service ever..

You're a poor person. Come on. Stick to your ignorance and respect people and their problems. Have you ever read the Quran? Do you know anything about Islam specifically? Tell me whatever you know about this faith, prove your silly comments and then you might be taken as a serious person.

I don't believe you can but what you can do is try to start in safe mode and then when you login from there you can uncheck all the processes that would be loaded. I am behind the times with Windows but they use to have a program called msconfig which allowed you to disable a lot of the starting processes. Usually you'll disable everything here, try to start windows normally and then slowly enable a few of them back from msconfig and keep repeating this process until you encounter the problem again.This way you should have pinpointed where the error possibly lies with the offending program.Cheers,MC

There is another boxmanager game called Online Boxing Manager, which you can find here: http://www.onlineboxingmanager.com/ You can become a manager for a boxing club there. May be a useful link. Have fun!

I just want to add that while I was looking at the second hand computer that was running Windows XP, I tried booting it up and it seemed to hang at the Windows is starting screen, but before this there was a little flicker, and if you've been around computers long enough like me and you've seen people try to hide windows etc, using ALT+TAB it had the same effect. So I pressed ALT+TAB and low and behold, an error message suggesting something about the domain it tried logging onto did not exist. So it was set up for a network and wasn't going to show the login screen until something was done about that dialog.If that error message actually went above the loading screen, it would have been a simple click on OK or Cancel but instead it hid the dialog and anyone who wasn't watching it would have thought it had stopped. As soon as you clicked on an action to take, the Login Screen showed up instantly.The strange things I've seen in Windows... it really does make me glad I converted to Linux but on the other side, I'm losing a lot of Windows knowledge to help others with.Cheers,MC

What I meant was the splash screen that happens after the BIOS POST and when the bootloader just starts, where you can get a progress splash screen or really just a splash screen saying Windows is loading. I call this the operating system's initialisation screen. Usually behind this screen we have all the usual drivers for understanding your system being loaded, the kernel especially and then like your graphics, network and file system drivers. These are things that take over from the BIOS drivers. The splash screen here, basically is to obscure you from seeing what is being loaded, however some programs/drivers you install can also be ran at this time. If it hangs here, usually it's something that was required that isn't being loaded. Though, "being required" is not usually the case, it's just a faulty install. Other issues that can cause this is faulty memory/failing hard drive which can also be hard to diagnose, but it usually happens at the same time or not long after it. In which case, it's an area in the memory/hard drive that is bad. Linux based operating systems have a similar screen but they also allow you to see what is being loaded behind the scene by just pressing 'ESC' before you reach your login screen. Then you can see whether anything that is being initialised started OK or FAILED. If something that FAILED is necessary, it'll most likely raise a Kernel panic. Cheers, MC

I have always taken an interest in nanotechnology and if this concept becomes a reality, then it definitely would be amazing as this video does show some amazing, yet hard to believe ideas. Just amazing really.The area of nanotechnology I had seen was for body armour. The nanotech fibers that could be created and the light weight of the material made bullets and stabbing protection stronger than that of kevlar material which is also a type of bonded material but not at a nano scale, however also in this same field came liquid armour in which kevlar was soaked in a liquid solution that added to the properties of kevlar to also make it stronger.Once we start combining liquid with nanotech, we may have even something more superior.All new materials created from nanotech would be great. I could not wait until everyday things started changing to light weight but vastly stronger material. Especially in tools like indestructible hammers, screwdrivers, etcAs with all new technology though, there is always the environmental issues that arise with this and we do need to balance the ecosystem to ensure that we can continue and discover even better things to come without causing harm to our living.Cheers,MC

Hey bro, Am getting the same problem, Any1 know how to solve??... thanks

I don't think there's a way to show what Windows is actually loading in the background. Maybe try pressing 'ESC' or 'TAB' during it and see if anything shows up, but I think it's suppose to hide all the details.The slow down could be an issue with anything that it's loading, including drivers, an installation that's gone bad, etc. Anything that is going to fail in the loading process will slow it down due to timeout issues or silent crashes.If you start up in safe mode, you will see the basic items that are loading and may even discover which one is taking a long time to load. If this loads quickly then it's something else that Windows is trying to load that is not part of it's own loading process.Cheers,MC

You're using IE?OK, well, this can easily be fixed by opening IE going to Tools | Manage Add-ons | Enable or Disable Add-ons then click on SSVHelperClass and disable it.If you don't get the Enable or Disable Add-ons window, you would require Admin privileges to do it.Cheers,MC

This is an old post but I must put it right. The Button widget command attribute is not correct. It needs to be a callable, but what you are actually doing is calling it. self.input() gets called so you should see that the entry box text is printed to your output instantly without any action. This also means your button won't work, but the Enter key would. self.input is referenced and is a callable which command calls itself when the associated action with the button is triggered. You also can't pass variables like this with the command attribute so in my code below I show you how you do this using lambda instead, with a few minor improvements, could have added more but I'd write you a whole application that may keep me occupied rather than answering this. #!/usr/bin/env python# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-from Tkinter import *class Inputer(Frame): def __init__(self, parent=None): Frame.__init__(self, parent) self.pack() ent = Entry(self) ent.insert(0, 'Type words here') ent.pack(side=LEFT) ent.select_range(0, END) ent.focus() ent.bind('<KP_Enter>', lambda event: self.input(ent.get())) ent.bind('<Return>', lambda event: self.input(ent.get())) widget = Button(self, text='Query', command=lambda: self.input(ent.get())) widget.pack(side=RIGHT) def input(self, text): if text == 'Type words here': return print textif __name__ == '__main__': Inputer().mainloop() Cheers, MC

The original PSU is very low powered which suggests this is a workstation machine.Changing the PSU would not be a problem, there's nothing hardware/software wise that I know of that would tie a PSU to a specific computer. I always find these are easily interchangeable.So would you be putting the motherboard in another case so that the standard PSU would fit? This would also depend if the screw holes for that motherboard fit the other case and also the backing fits the case.If changing the case is not an option, then how are you going to squeeze the new PSU in, maybe there's enough room for it? Or if not that important, maybe kiwi ingenuity... which I've done numerous times on some of my computers. Just don't be quick to shift them around, something may fall out.If you just need a few more additional molex connectors, then splitting them may help, but because it's not a very powerful PSU, it may or may not have enough 'uumph' in it to run, or to run for the expected lifetime you may use that computer for.Cheers,MC

"hate" is such a harsh word. How much time do you really have, and how long are you going to put the effort into learning it? Most people wanting to learn programming, just want to get it done quickly, bypass the essential learning and just focus on what they want to create, so it can be easy to find a lot of poorly written code out there. I know both C/C++ and Python, but they aren't the only languages I know but they can have some solid learning grounds for any programming. C/C++ seem to have the consistent language idioms that other languages follow, while Python has an easier thinking process that simplifies some of the complexities that C/C++ has but can also introduce other complexities. If programming as a career, I would lean towards C/C++, if as a hobby I would go towards Python. I'm not saying Python is a hobbyist language though, it is very powerful and my preferred language at the moment due to how easily I can whip something up. My pro for python dynamic type, quick development time and multiplatform support, my pro for C/C++ is usually faster running programs, longer history and that it is very powerful. The best of both worlds, code in Python can be rewritten in C/C++ to speed up those areas that may cause bottlenecks. I just thought of another reason to go with Python... no pointers. That's actually a good reason too, because explaining pointers is quite hard as it has numerous amounts of usage that changes it's definition where saying a pointer could be this, it can also be such and such. "&" in front of a variable name, when used this way and not with two operands like the bitwise 'and' operator is actually the address-of or reference operator. This does not always mean you're working with pointers. It is used to get the address of items in memory in which a pointer can point to. #include <iostream>using namespace std;int main(){int cats = 7;cout << "There is " << cats << " cats at this memory address " << &cats << endl;return 0;} This could result in something like: #$ There is 7 cats at this memory address 0xeffffc0c Things I can say about pointers, they must have a type. A pointer that points to integers is an integer pointer. To declare an integer pointer and not a simple int we use an asterisk '*', like this: int *pointer; To use an integer pointer, we first need to store data in an integer variable and then store the address of the integer variable in the pointer and we may as well access the data it points to by dereferencing it: #include <iostream>using namespace std;int main(){int integer;int *pointer;integer = 5;pointer = &integer;cout << "The value of the integer is: " << *pointer;return 0;} Which should result in: #$ The value of the integer is: 5 This a just a simple usage of pointers, you can also get pointers to functions, objects and a whole lot more. Reasons to use pointers, well, it's all to do with memory management which Python handles for you. So, if I was going to go for an easy language to learn... it would be Python. Just to show why, to get similar to what was written above in Python #!/usr/bin/env python#-*- coding: utf-8 -*-def main(): cats = 7 print 'There is', cats, 'cats at memory address', hex(id(cats))if __name__ == '__main__': main() Now I'm uncertain if hex(id(cats)) is the actual memory address or whether it should just be id(cats), we don't usually work with memory addresses. Wow, I didn't want to remove what I wrote, even though it should be about Learning Python and where to start. Python tutorial helps, then build on what specifically you want to do. Cheers, MC

I know this is old, but I haven't been on much lately so I'm trying to change that. So what were you trying to achieve? From your first post: You have a function called test1 which takes user input (you should not use input but raw_input, input is like calling eval(raw_input()) and eval is evil in most circumstances) in which you're asking them to enter '1' or '2'. You then have an if statement that checks if '1' was entered and if so, x will be reassigned to 'left' or if x is '2', reassign it to 'right'. If none of those conditions are met, you'll print 'Error!' and then you will recursively execute test1() again but you miss returning it. I don't see how assigning test1() to x in that else statement returns the correct result as you don't return x. return test1() should have been the answer to fix that problem as you have no return statement in your else section, which should implicitly return None. If not, then this would not be normal. An alternative way to write this could be: #!/usr/bin/env python# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-def test1():x = raw_input('Enter 1 or 2: ').strip()while x not in ('1', '2'): x = raw_input('Warning, You must enter 1 or 2: ').strip()return ('left', 'right')[int(x) - 1]def main():x = test1()print xif __name__ == '__main__':main() This is written for Python 2.7 What we have here is similar, however I used a while loop to ensure we only exit the loop if x is either '1' or '2', if not, a warning is printed and it'll ask again. The reason I'm doing this is that I like functions to try and only have one point of return/exit if necessary, but this is really your choice and a habit I tried keeping to with C programming. When we exit the loop, I then just return either 'left' or 'right' from the tuple by calculating the index by the answer that was supplied to x. Cheers, MC

there has been research on parts of the brain when preforming a certain task, lets just say mathematics, there are certain parts of the brain that are activated by solving a math problem. they monitor this activity by a mathematician and transfer it to a helmet witch sends electrical currents to those "active mathematical spots" now the person in witch the helmet is on, is able to preform at this "mathematician pace". this has been proven to work in many of tests and also has been shown on television.

Your code drwas to _root which is the whole parent movieclip.To limit the drawing to a certain area, create a new movieclip with the size you need, call it drawpad for example. the you attach the mouse events to _root.drawpad instaed of _root.

If your code can copy the contents of the text box the you can try sendKeys (Ctr+c) to paste it in notepad. For help with that command see: https://www.google.com/

I had a similar problem with my windows and odly enough the solution was to clean the RAMs from dust. Actually I have to use a blower from time to time to clean the whole computer.

The answer to your question is well explained here: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ basically the link should look like this: https://microworkers.com/ The autologin.php page will have a form that uses the $_GET method to retrive username and password from the link.

That might be because of the page layout. If you are specifying the elements size in your page in pixels then it will change according to the monitor size. But if you specify the size in percentage it will fit differert size of monitors.May be if you post a link to your page I can help.Mohammad

In your situation it's practical to store the data in an XML instead of MS Access DB. JS is very limited when it comes to data bases while it can talk easily to XML.Just google js + xml or ajax.If you post here the data structure I might be able to help you convert it to XML.Mohammad Amer
