  1. In the admin.tools section in the control panel the applications has an event veiwer log of every error I have had since I got my computer. There is an option to delete these. Do I ever need to do this? Or is it wise to have such a list to hand.

  2. I'm sure people do care, your post may have been overlooked.

    I see in the link you gave the person's problem was solved by reinstalling msn explorer. I presume you have tried this.

    One of the more experienced people will give you specific advice soon, just hold on.

  3. I have managed to burn a videotape to dvd and this is what I did.

     

    Bought a composite video and audio cable kit consisting of 3  double ended cables with a red ended one, yellow ended one and white ended one. (these were reasonably cheap)

     

    Plugged them first into the corresponding colours on the back of my vcr player, the bit that said video and audio out. Then I plugged the other ends into the corresponding colours on my computer.

     

    Next I brought up Power producer gold (part of the powerdvd package that came with the computer) put a dvd disc in, chose analog as the place I was recording from, chose PAL because I will play it in uk, opened tools and selected things like composite and the audio source .Started vcr playing, pressed record on computer and I was really amazed at the picture quality of the finished dvd. I didn't need a lot of space as it burned the disc straight from the source and not onto the hard drive first.

    PS  Had to out my microphone while I did this.

     

     

     

     

    In case anyone has a nero package I have also managed to do it with this, but had to put on the hard drive first before burning to dvd

  5. I have had a look at "the codec 3 from your site.

     

    Question 1. It says it's tested on 32 bit computers mine is 64 bit(not that I really understand that), will this make any difference?

     

    Question . Do I have to get rid of Free cd-da extactor prog for .ogg file to mp3 converter before download?

  6. Disconnect the mike unless you want to "dub". As for the rest, I tried power dvd a while and couldn't make it work.I now use dvd shrink to get the dvd on my harddrive, and burn dvd's from there with cdburnerxp. You can also convert formats with divxtodvd (and a few other in/out codec) Maks sure you have a good codec pack installed. Divx has them. You also need gspot for solving codec quandries.

     

     

     

    Thanks for the reply gunner. I will take out the mike and try power dvd again. I don't know if you realised that I am trying to get old videotapes from my vcr to the computer and then burn them to dvd. (I already use shrink for copying dvd's)

    Also which codec pack would you recommend that I get for general use?

  7. I have a power dvd package which says I can convert my videos from my vcr player into dvd's by plugging into the svideo outlets on both computer and vcr and off you go. I have had a try but not really much to show for it yet.

     

    One thing I really want to know is should the microphone on my camera ( for msn) be disconnected as the only bit that worked of the attempt was the heated discussion recorded between me and my other half as to where to stick the cables!! :)

    Hello Mr Clean

    As some of our friends on this forum have English as a second language, it would be really helpful if you could write using full words if possible. Nice of you to join in the forums. :)

  9. Aqumon,

    The link you gave I went and checked out what was in my startup.

    Under the N's (250-299) was NvCplDeamon - a trojan!

     

    Good job I took another good look, my invdia graphic card is NvCplDaemon just one letter different.

     

    However I liked that site, (even though it nearly gave me a heart attack)

  10. Downloaded the blue energy windows theme for desktop and background (from the microsoft site) however I changed it back to my original theme as it made some bits of this forum load very slowly. I guess it could have just been a coincidence?
