    What did you do to your bike today?

    Not just today, but over the past week and a bit, I have been working on both the Bobber, and the VW Trike. The Bobber is weirdly, somehow incredibly reliable, engine-wise, but disasterously problematic electically. So, I have gone through the entire Electric system, and found a billion...

    Why you SHOULD be using Firefox

    I use Vodafone for my Broadband. I never thought until just recently, but they provide their own VPN and so Im happy a a pig in Shi... I use Firefox for my browsing and I have never had a single issue. I have tried other browsers, and a silly amount of them too over the years, but while I can...

    Mouse suddenly doesnt like KVM?

    Ok, something that I am looking into... The PSU has failed. Annoyingly, even when I unplug it, it does not make any difference... The lights all work, and I can switch between any PC just fine. This does kind of irritate me, because that means that the USB is not just being re-directed to the...

Its got a 1650 nVidia and so its also not slow ( When I say not slow, Im also not calling it quick either, just not slow LOL ) Anyway, Its got Intel 630 and nVidia and so I have had Windows...

    What Linux Operating Systems do you like?

    For me, every time I get used to something,it changes. I loved KDE and then I moved to gnome because KDE seemed to be a bit poor. Gnome changed and this unity crud made me go to Mate and now I am preferring Cinnamon, although I do like a theme or two in Mate that I cannot quite get Cinnamon to...

    Basic networking - Getting 2 PCs to work with each other.

    Ok, been reading that Wiki with some interest. much of it is going over my head. I have some weird inability to learn things since my accident, and then all of a sudden, several weeks later, I get sparks of stuff and things happen, and I rememeber and get stuff sorted, but then I forget what I...

    Gaming ( Steam ) was great then went nvidia now its poo

    Ok, I thought I would update anyone who gives a monkeys... I know I have not been updating as and when. I have been a bit weird the last week. I even lost Thursday and Friday and I genuinely thought that Friday was in fact wednesday, so my head has taken a turn for the worse. This happens often...

    Ok bud.

    Basic networking - Getting 2 PCs to work with each other.

    Right, I have a number of PCs on my network and ?I haver had nothing but trouble since day one. So, I am going to get to the most basic thing that I can. I am ONLY going to involve 2 PCs in this question. Both PCs are connected to my switch, and that is then connected to my Modem/Router. Both...

    Gaming ( Steam ) was great then went nvidia now its poo

    Nothing against them, but simply didnt do one before I messed with it as I did not think it would be so bloody horrible. Weirdly, right now, I have the ATI setup running again. I have then deleted the nVidia files and copied the ones from, the ATI setup directly to the nVidia setup. When I run...

    How often do you reinstall Windows?

    I have used Object Desktop and Window Blinds etc, however, they had issues with Firefox and Thunderbird IIRC. So yeah. Close, but no cigar kind of thing.

    Gaming ( Steam ) was great then went nvidia now its poo

    Still not had the change to do anything. I have just been setting up the other PC. Its hell. I have copied loads of the steam games over, and I tried to run soulstorm, but its been trying to launh for about 15 minutes so far. I gave up on it. I have taken the extra HD out and I am copying the...

    Gaming ( Steam ) was great then went nvidia now its poo

    Not very slow. I would not say that as such, but certainly, when tere is lots of junk on the screen, then yeah, it gets clogged up for sure. For example, the level I played with last night ( if you know it of care ) was Kaurava, fighting the sisters of Battle. The game was flawless, and not...

    How often do you reinstall Windows?

    Yeah, its kind of annoying to know, that so many people will have 3 browsers in their Windows computer. And yes, I agree with Win 8.1 being not that bad. But then I also loved the Aero/Glass themes in Vista & Win7. I simply loathe the newer themes that look like some failed art studend made...
