    Going to change my friggin' useless Siemens C35 for a Nokia 3310 and could do with lots of links to free ringtones and logos, most definately 70's bands like Genesis King Crimson et al. Anyone know of many ?:confused:

    A few probs - advice req !

    I dunno what the hell I've done, or installed to create the problems, but a) the windows task manager will not stay open, opens for less than a second then closes. b) Device manager is not showing either via My Computer or Control Panel - what I'm getting is "Console root" whatever the hell that...

    OpenMG Sony's minidisc software - is there an alternative anywhere ?

    Mainly due to the fact that OpenMG is a pile of shite. It uses tons of space in order to keep the RIAA happy, and as a result leaves mountains of stuff on your HD, taking up mountains of space. Besides which, the copyright protection is truly O.T.T. - you cant use a track any more than 2 - 3...

    WinMX - anyone know how....

    You see, for some bloody reason, WinMX reset itself and needed to be re-installed (how and why I DON'T know) and the load of incomplete stuff I had, lots of it 50% of and much more - are not showing in the transfers. I have tried to find some sort of resume or double clicking, but no joy. One or...

    WMA - these the windows media files ? / Overburn on NTI 6

    I noticed on NTI that under the MP3 disc creator is a WMA disc creator. Is this the much vaubnted Win Media files, supposed to be half the size of MP3's ? And if so, i thought you couldnt make cd's of them ? Also, despite doing all necessary and setting overburn features, I cant get the bloody...

    Is it just my comp, or has the site gone pear shaped ? I try to post a message and I get a white screen with "done" ditto with "new posts" or "search" Weee-eerd. :confused: If it was just Opera I would understand, being a pile of shite as a browser....

    BENQ - who makes these ?

    They were ACER. If these are still ACER's manufactured in the spindle, I'll buy them. But I need to know rather than risk them being CMC. Anyone know ?:confused: :confused: :confused:

    Plextor 24x refuses 90% of disks !

    Its not just the cheapies now. My Plex which previously recorded CMC Ritek et al quite happily and at top speed too, now refuses to record virtually everything via NTI and CDMate takes and age (45 minutes !!!!) on pre-mastering but does not START burning. Nero just freezes,

    Plextor 24x problem with cheapies

    Its for some reason decided that it doesnt like the cheapies and just refuses to write on CMC blanks. It has until now written on them (except one) but I have tried 6 in a row out of the remaining spindle, and same result on each. Is there a way out of this or do I have to be very careful from...

    WinMX and the non-sharers involved

    I have been desperately trying to download certain mp3's of bootleg albums of one of my fave groups. And since the demise of Audiogalaxy (yes it is technically still running, but words like shite or crap doesnt do it justice) I have to use Kazaa or WinMX. WinMX shhould be great but has a major...

    LG 48x writer - any good on protected ?

    I bought this at a fair for my mother-in-law as a prezzie for her son and daughter-in-laws comp this Christmas. I gathered a bit info before going to the fair about reliable protected game copiers and the usual suspects (Lite-on Plextor) came to the fore. But LG's were also mentioned as a...
