hey guys, i need some help from you all. I had to face the ultimate tradegy 3 days back when my entire hdd crashed. it is not being detected not even in the bios. i had made some backup on dvds but still there was a lot of data in it. I will be giving it for recovery tomorrow where they will replace the faulty IC on the hdd and extract all the data. Any ideas what else i should do to save my data??

Top 13 Ways You Can Reduce Global Warming Save Energy, Money and the Environment According to the Natural Resources Defense Council, the two biggest offenders in the global warming problem are cars an d power plants.

Hi I found media player 11 on Vista having problems playing DVDs properly, there's a picture but no sound... The Business version doesn't have a DVD (= MPEG-2) decoder built in, I suppose this is the problem. There's no DVD decoder for XP either, so I went and downloaded Nvidia PureVideo for XP (which isn't free). Most DVD player software supports PureVideo (hardware acceleration via an Nvidia Geforce) but this is just a decoder 3rd party apps can use, I dont need some bloated WinDVD. Anyway, it wasn't updated since 2006 and doesn't support Vista 64, so I can't use it with Media Player x64 as it only supports x64 codecs. So, what I want to know: Do you know of any…

I found this website posted on another forum regarding the game reviews, I must admit some of the reviewers comments seem to be a little outdated Check out the Secular & Un-Christian Games reviews found towards the middle of the page especially the Bully review.

I'm tired of making endless exclusion list What than? 1) Limited User Account 2) decent firewall with HIPS(Comodo v3*/Outpost v2008*/Online Armor Firewall/Jetico Personal Firewall v2* or v1*) *all additional security options enabled 3) simple antivirus - ClamAV, Comodo AV(don't mix Comodo AV it with Comodo v3 it has integr…

I have this one windows 2003 server machine at my friends work that has problems with AV it uses, its scheduled to make updates regullary, but problem is that every now and then one have to completely remove this AV, reboot and reinstall it in order for it to run normaly. The main service just wont start, technical support could not help, they claim its because there was another AV software installed (i canot verify that claim) and in agreement stands that they are not obligated to find a solution to the problem when that is the case. The error code that AV service spits out is nowhere documented and until we find another suplier/and preferably another AV software i would…
