So I've been having some difficulties with my Laptop computer. Not the least significant of
them was this problem of not being able to find the O/S. What to do about it? How does the
computer not find the Operating System? I know that it is in there someplace, I had just
re-installed it, but the BIOS was not able to locate it. On the phone to the Manufacturer's
Help Centre. Explain the problem. Real nice guy. Had the answer right handy. Send me an email right
away. Good thing I had another machine available,huh? On startup, the powering on of the machine

About three years ago I decided to learn how to use Linux and after a lot of posts on a forum I
tried Ubuntu Linux as it was recommended as a good first Linux distro. Ubuntu is not the easiest
Linux distro to use but with its unmatched forum community support it is one of the easiest to learn
to use. One of the problems with learning Linux is that a lot of users have an attitude that Linux
should be a free Windows knock off which it is not. Ubuntu is build on a Linix core or kernel and is
a different Open Source and free as in to use operating system. This brings us to t...

I think it would be sweet to have a Google operating system. I searched google for it, and all that
I could find was a bunch of people with the idea for them to make one. I think they'd be able
to make it run all the programs we have already for Windows, Linux, and Mac, and make it a lot
better. They could integrate it with the internet a lot better that other OS's. So, do you
think they should make one, or that they ever will?...

Have you ever looked at a comparison for products of the same type and wanted to find one that was
just right for you, but there were so many options to sort them by that you just couldn't? Or
did you want to make a scoring system for a game, but couldn't think of anything original? I
"specialize" (in oher words, make a hobby) in tinkering with and combining objective rating systems,
making them very obscure but fair nonetheless. If you want an example of my work, try out my Button
Masher game (for which I designed the scoring system), or go view my webhost ...

Hi guys, I would like to transfer files from UNIX machine to Mainframe system (using UNIX machine as
client). The transfer process needs to be secure (i.e. data sent thro network should be encrypted
using 128-bit encryption algorithm). I came to know that SFTP server is not available for Mainframe
systems and hence using SFTP is not an option. Please let me know any other alternatives for the
"Secured File Transfer to Mainframe system". Thanks! ...

Well it i s kind of obvious, but i have gotten many questions from people on here before asking me
what some people ment by OS..and so i explained it to them, and i thought i might be able to explain
it to other people on here OS aka Operating System OS is short for Operating
System. An Operating System is the system in which a computer operates on. Basicly it manages all
of the other processes/programs that you put on the computer.. As defines by google it is:

Recently I was customizing a computer for my neighbor's needs. All was going well giving her the
proper amount of RAM and hard drive space and all of the components she would need to run what she
needs to run, and then we got to the Choice of operating system. There's good news, All listed
as Windows Vista. I have never run windows vista before but i heard from a friend it is much more
advanced than Windows XP, so i got on the phone with the tech and asked if it would be possible to
get windows XP on it instead of Vista But i was told that Windows Vista is the ...

if you saw my thread way back about eyeOS, this is way better. YouOS is just like that exept way
better, and it's hosted for you. it's in alpha, but it's great. If you have mozilla it
works best in that it has great AJAX and DHTML, and works really good, but sometimes it freezes up
when loading certain programs. Other then that it's really great you can develop for them,
it's all web based in AJAX. it's easy too. Some apps are an MP3 Player, file uploader,
wallpaper changer, a shell style command line, chat, instant messages, and rich text edit...

Hey, I'm currently running Joomla and PhPBB (through a bridge I found online) I'm really not
satisfied with it though...The login/registration process is very buggy (not technically bugged
since its supposed to work that way) but is very unreliable. I was wondering if anybody could
reccomend a good Forum/Portal or CMS combo I can use to post news/picture files/etc on a main
page/section of the website, and have integrated forums that run smoothly login/registration wise
with a minimum upkeep time. Any input is very valuable, anything is better than what I'm...

Ok. By portal i mean CMS portal, like php-nuke, post-nuke etc. NOT the ones that you add to your
forum giving it a front page look (like mkportal). Does anyone know/use any good portals apart from
the ones installed on fantastico. Those are ok, but not great. I wanted one where i could edit the
pages, having a blank page as a module not every page being specialised like web links etc. ...

This thread is the Discuss your OS Game! The "Discuss your OS" game is a remake of the +/=/-
game some forums do to rate people on their ideas. Basically, this is a chance for you to discuss
your opinions on any Operating System you use. The way you do this is simple: 1. Click the "Post
Reply Button" 2. Put these symbols onto four separate lines: OS: + = - 3. Where it says OS: , you
type the Operating System you use (Example: Windows XP). Then on each other line write your opinions
about that System. Next to the + write something(s) you like the most, next to the...

intermittently) monitor the air pressure in each tire.     * Notify the driver of the problem     *
Inflate that tire back to the proper level - This means there has to be an air supply as well as a
