Anyone know of any software (preferably free) which would allow a friend to speak and have the computer type for him as he has hand mobility problems.
Thanks for any ideas

You say "The disc plays ok on tv and computer" does that mean Dvd Shrink completed ripping and it works?
No, I meant that the disc I was trying to rip played ok on tv and computer.
It was as if shrink couldn't recognise it when it tried to analysed it. The name of the film didn't even appear in the drive just the letter. Could there be something in the disc to stop it being ripped I wondered, it was a fairly new one.

never have problems with shrink usually, but last night this error came up while ripping a dvd only 14 seconds into the analysing. (i/o device error)
The disc plays ok on tv and computer. It's a sony disc but a metallic bronze colour.
Any ideas why?

Not sure if its the same problem but Royal Mail computers were down today in England.

Had to think for a moment as gas in England is a fuel we cook with! Petrol over here is is really expensive at the moment, around 90pence per litre in the Yorkshire region of England. This is raising the price of goods in the shops also. There must be a top limit soon or we'll all have to walk to work. Sombody is making a packet at our expense I think.

It's always sad when people move on. All the best DJ and thanks for the knowledge.

My favourite at the moment (apart from the weather and clock) is the little green spaceman in the bubblecraft floating around the desktop, smiling!

Tried the cnet link twice but the download keep freezing, so I had to do it from the other link you gave. What a lot of fun little toys!! Thank you rridgley.
Will yahoo bother me at all with popups or anything?
-
This is all new to me rridgley, so I had a liittle look and downloaded kitty clock.kon. Windows can't open it. Is this because I need to download the whole konfabulater prog and that would automatically change the extention, or can I change it myself somehow?

Although not free IdeaSoft Scrapbooks Plus and Greating Card Factory Silver are two of my fav's, and they're inexpensive at $9.99 USD each.
Like the look of Greeting card silver will try and find an outlet in England as it would cost more in postage than to buy the product.

It will happily co-exist alongside all of the programs seen here.
Protects against Hijackers, Spyware, Worms, Dialers, Trojans and Keyloggers.
When my daughter had a trojan (backdoor small 38r) Ewido was recommended to remove it after I went onto Google. She had McAfee which couldn't deal with it. It was easy to download, install and update. She went on to buy it after the free trial, costing ?18 for the year and is pleased with it. She also has CCleaner, spywareblaster, avg and spybot. No conflicts.

these two interest me, firstly, the only good thing about Britain is that it spawned Canada! that and Boddingtons of course.
and secondly, thats a really good point about cameras, on a side note, why would any normal person need more than a 3-4 megapixel camera, it clearly says that 4's are good enough to make large posters, how many of us use our cameras to make posters? honestly. i think i read somewhere that a 6-7 pixel camera is capable of making bilboards, come on...
Also, Canada was just rated the 2nd best place to live in the world, next to only Austrailia...i believe the US and UK were both out of the top 5, keep up the good work and you'll be back soon. lol
My mother told me that all Canadians talk slow so that their mouth can keep up to the speed of their brain, of course Newhotness I didn't believe her as she also told my brother to eat all his bread crusts as they would make his hair curl. He went bald!!!

Thanks very much for the reply. I have taken up your suggestion for Paint Studio lite 1.2. Easy to use, flexible and with a nice little help/tutorial section.
Have a nice day!

I really enjoyed reading that!!

\The reason I asked about changing .ogg to mp3 was to put them on my mp3 player for when I am at work. I thought that if I left it as an .ogg file I wouldn't be able to drag it from my nero media to my mp3 player. Is there a way?
-
Now playing moonlight sonata while I type this! Thanks.
P.S. Easy to download and work

I have just downloaded a piece of music with .ogg after the file name. What program would anyone recommend to convert it to mp3? (preferably free)
Thanks

Just returned from a nice sunny, sand and rest holiday to read this thread. It is very important that this site stays open and working. People such as me can be likened to novice swimmers in a pool with you guys as lifeguards. To have somewhere to come with problems that are treat with dignity and respect even if they are trivial, gives confidence. I owe this site, as do others. STICK WITH US PLEASE.

Live a bit futher up country than London, but it still affects you. What has been uplifting is reading all the comments in this forum from people around the world.
What a nice bunch you all are.

Thanks for your continued support all of you now,at the risk of sounding really daft I am not very computer minded so could you explain what you mean by hard drive cranking,stupid ciscv andwhat things in the task manager should run at 99%/100%?
Also I have no idea what a Belarc Advisor log is!
I know I'm a pest.
if you do contol-alt-delete and choose the performance tab this will show you your cpu usage, as to the Belarc Advisor log give it a click on the link in dj.lizards reply and you will get a bit of an idea there as to what it is. Sometimes it helps to put the terms you don't understand into Google, I do it all the time!!

Thought I'd let you guys know that I'm a 55 year old lady. Age really doesn't mean much unless you let it. You can learn from anyone, any age, who has experience of something that you haven't. you lot have taught me so much about computers, I THANK YOU ALL!!!

in Software
Posted
First Andavari, I use decrypter in conjuction with shrink when (how shall I put this) copying a commercial dvd. I couldn't get past first base with this dvd.
Englishman, Have downloaded your suggestion, now a smilie on my taskbar. I take it there is no prog to run when using shrink and decrypter, this dvd43 just jumps in when it has to is that correct?
Thanks
