Hello and welcome to the forum. Still using the TV box to connect to the internet. Connection from the TV box slows your internet speed down unlike if you used the cable modem.Your right this is outdated and I would certainly ring Virgin to update this.Then add to the mix the USB connection which is slow and again a combination of the two your speeds are going to be poor. Then add another computer to the mix you may find connections dropping out continualy. I know the guys here will input more information for you. You can use eithernet cable from the back of the TV box. Could I make a better sugestion and at least try and give you better speeds and connection? You can buy internal eithernet cards and you do not need to spend a lot of cash on them.Fit in one in each computer. You do not need a wireless router but you could buy a 4 port wired cable/DSL router.These can be purchased pritty cheaply to. JB.

The qualities of leadership Can you imagine working at the following Company? It has a little over 500 employees with the following statistics: 29 have been accused of spousal abuse 7 have been arrested for fraud 19 have been accused of writing bad checks 117 have bankrupted at least two businesses 3 have been arrested for assault 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit 14 have been arrested on drug-related charges 8 have been arrested for shoplifting 21 are current defendants in lawsuits In 1998 alone, 84 were stopped for drunk driving Can you guess which organization this is? Give up? It's the 535 members of the United States Congress. The same group that perpetually cranks out hundreds upon hundreds of new laws designed to keep the rest of us in line.

An Indian walks into a cafe with a shotgun in one hand and a bucket of buffalo manure in the other. He says to the waiter, "Me want coffee". The waiter says, "Sure chief, coming right up". He gets the Indian a tall mug of coffee, and the Indian drinks it down in one gulp, picks up the bucket of manure, throws it into the air, blasts it with the shotgun, then just walks out. The next morning the Indian returns. He has his shotgun in one hand and a bucket of buffalo manure in the other. He walks up to the counter and says to the waiter, "Me want coffee". The waiter says "Whoa, Tonto. We're still cleaning up your mess from the last time you were here. What the heck was that all about, anyway?" The Indian smiles and proudly says, "Me in training for upper management. Come in, drink coffee, shoot the ****, and disappear for the rest of the day." Ten great reasons to go to work naked 10. No-one ever steals your chair. 9. Gives "bad hair day" a whole new meaning. 8. Diverts attention from the fact that you also came to work drunk. 7.

"I'd love to chip in... but I left my wallet in my pants." 3. It's an inventive way to finally meet that 'special' person in Human Resources. 2. You can take advantage of your computer monitor radiation to work on your tan. And ... drum roll ... the Number One reason to go to work naked : 1. Your boss will never say, "I wanna see your ass in here by 8:00!" ever again. Ten best things to say if you get caught sleeping at your desk 10."They told me at the blood bank this might happen." 9."This is just a 15 minute power nap like they raved about in that time management course you sent me to." 8. "Whew! Guess I left the top off the white out. You probably got here just in time." 7. "I wasn't sleeping, I was meditating on the mission statement and envisioning a new paradigm." 6. "I was testing my keyboard for drool resistance." 5. "I was doing a highly specific Yoga exercise to relieve work-related stress. Do you discriminate against people who practice Yoga?" 4. "Why did you interrupt me? I had almost figured out a solution to our biggest problem." 3. "The coffee machine is broken." 2. "Someone must have put decaf in the wrong pot." 1.

Windows 7 Tips and Tricks.
Jelly Bean replied to Jelly Bean's topic in Guides / Tutorials / Tips and Tricks
XP Mode This time, you do not have to slap your head that same way when Vista would not run an XP application. For those XP applications that do not work under Windows 7, you can download XP Mode free from the Microsoft website and run XP applications in an emulated XP environment in Windows 7. Imagine Parallels on Mac OS X without the need to fish out money on an extra OS. An easier and quicker way to adjust multiple displays Do you constantly connect your computer to different external monitors or projectors, especially at work? Try Win + P, and duplicating or extending your display to the other monitor takes just a second. Win + P presents you with an Alt + Tab style menu, which is ideal if you give a lot of presentations at work on your laptop. Shake 'em away Ever had 10 Notepad, two Powerpoint and 50 Outlook windows open? Want to minimise all of them except the most important one? In Windows 7, you can grab the top of the window and shake it about to scare away all of the other open windows. Simple. -

Processor Upgrade Help Req Pls
Jelly Bean replied to hypnosis75's topic in Tech Support & Discussions Forum
Hello and welcome to the forum. I found conflicting information. It appears your mainboard is an older PIIII. It can take up to 2 gig RAM. Apparently depending on what version your mainboard is to what CPU upgrade can be installed. It could be 2.0 GHZ upto 2.6 GHZ but I cannot confirm this. Others will input and help you. You can use this to analyze your system or enter your service tag number,it may help? Dell : Parts and Upgrades for Your Dell JB. -
That will be great,keep us posted. You may find increasing virtual memory may help also.

Cache Access Denied error code
Jelly Bean replied to deanrit's topic in Tech Support & Discussions Forum
Ok let me post a few of these I found: Check to Make Sure that Your System Restore Service is Running (it should be)....to do this click Start, then Run, then type services.msc Then scroll down and find "System Restore Service" , and make sure it is Started and set to "Automatic". System Restore Requires this to be running. One sugestion was are you using Norton?If yes that could be the issue. Repair install: Perform a Repair Installation Or even backup all data and run either recovery console or reinstall windows. I have gone through many many pages trying to find a fix. -
Cache Access Denied error code
Jelly Bean replied to deanrit's topic in Tech Support & Discussions Forum
Have you tried the fix I posted? Try this: Start > run: msconfig >> select "launch system restore" and follow the prompts from there. Choose a date that precedes the problem. Does system restore run from there? -
Criminals are already trying to take advantage of Mac users looking for Snow Leopard.Websites offering the software for free found to be carrying malware. Trend Micro security researcher found fake sites carrying a variant of the JAHLAV family of malware that can change a user’s DNS server and point them towards a fake website - in some cases to phishing sites. Trend Micro solutions architect Rik Ferguson said that criminals were taking advantage of the “desire” and “greed” of people who were not willing to pay for the new OS when it is released. There is the deliberate act of adding malware to this illegal download of the new MAC OS so you have been warned.

Let sfc /scannow run. It will check system files. Have you tried the uninstall of the driver?It will do no halm at all to do this. -
