  1. Can you post a full log of your burn, please? FWIW, I burn Ritek GO5s at 12x (their rated highest speed) without any problems.
  2. Ever been to worth1000.com? They have some great photoshops.
  3. Until Lightning_UK! adds these and other goodies for us to play with, I suggest a tool called Folder2ISO. What it does is grabs the contents of a directory (folder) and adds them to an ISO image which ImgBurn was designed to work with. It?s a very basic and simple program to operate. (It?s technically a graphical user interface (a window with stuff you can click on) for an ISO creation tool called ?mkisofs? but that?s not important). Find Folder2ISO @ the link below. It?s very easy to use and would suit your needs perfectly, I think. http://www.trustfm.net/divx/Software/Folder2Iso.html
  4. LOL!!! Mrs Shamus hates this picture. It?s why I make it her desktop background every couple of months. *snicker*
  5. How would using DVD Decrypter make everything ?Fine?? DVD Decrypter used a prehistoric version of the ImgBurn burn engine which is nowhere near as good as ImgBurn. Changing the I/O from SPTI to ElbyCDIO would be a better suggestion than reverting to outdated software.
  6. BTW, The correct question is: Angry and hungry are two words that end in '-gry'. There are three words in the English language. What is the third word? Everyone knows what it means and everyone uses it every day. Look closely and I have already given you the third word. What is it? The clue is the second sentence. ?There are three words in the English language.? So.... the words we want are ?the English language? And the third word is.................??
  7. It?s called Pride. They?re too damned proud to admit to the world that many of their decisions have been disasterous. Pulling troops out of these areas would signify a failure in policy. The USA (for some reason or another) seems to think that placing troops in various parts of the world will solve the multitude of problems that different countries face. I agree with alot of what Robin Williams is quoted as saying. I think there is little doubt Great Britain would have been overrun if not for Hitlers? woeful decision to attack Russia before GB had been pacified. The Japanese bombing the crap out of Pearl Harbour (after having beaten China to a pulp just a few years earlier), didn?t help the Germans much either. 2 decisions made by just 2 people changed the way the war was fought. Imagine how much different things might have been if Germany and Japan had launched a joint attack on the UK?
  8. Question Shamus, any reason for the FAT32? It?s what L_UK! suggested and have never thought to question it.
  9. MJ: I think you need to get out more.
  10. There was a church that had a very big-busted organist. Her breasts were so huge that they bounced and jiggled while she played. Unfortunately, she distracted the congregation considerably. The very proper church ladies were appalled. They said something had to be done about this or they would have to get another organist. One of the ladies approached her very discreetly and told her to mash up some green persimmons, (if you eat them they make you pucker, because they are so sour) and rub them on your breasts and maybe they would shrink in size. She agreed to try it. The following Sunday morning the minister got up on the pulpit and said: "Dew to thircumsthanthis bewond my contwol we will not hath a thermon tewday."
  11. I?m bored and half drunk.................... Now for the other half. WooHoo!
  12. Happy birthday, Young Fella!!!! WooHoo!! :beer:
  13. It won?t do any good. He has a photo of me wearing ?Tweety Bird? waterwings. I was just testing them. Honest.
  14. A man is waiting for his wife to give birth. The doctor comes in and informs the dad that his son was born without a torso, arms or legs. The son is just a head! But the dad loves his son and raises him as well as he can, with love and compassion. After 21 years, the son is now old enough for his first drink. Dad takes him to the bar, tearfully tells the son he is proud of him and orders up the biggest, strongest drink for his boy. With all the bar patrons looking on curiously and the bartender shaking his head in disbelief, the boy takes his first sip of alcohol. Swoooop! A torso pops out! The bar is dead silent; then bursts into a whoop of joy. The father, shocked, begs his son to drink again. The patrons chant "Take another drink"! The bartender still shakes his head in dismay. Swoooop! Two arms pops out! The bar goes wild. The father, crying and wailing, begs his son to drink again. The patrons chant "Take another drink"! The bartender ignores the whole affair. By now the boy is getting tipsy, and with his new hands he reaches down, grabs his drink and guzzles the last of it. Swoooop! Two legs pop out. The bar is in chaos. The father falls to his knees and tearfully thanks God. The boy stands up on his new legs and stumbles to the left... then to the right... right through the front door, into the street, where a truck runs over him and kills him instantly. The bar falls silent. The father moans in grief. The bartender sighs and says... "He should have quit while he was a head."
  15. I dunno about the darkside. I could be in the black book with that comment about spandex trousers though.
  16. Sorry. Can?t tell you. Secret women?s business. *cough*
  17. Good to hear, Kev-baby! WooHoo!
  18. In prison? I?m guessing his new tune will be ?Sodom and Gomorrah?. More Sodom than Gomorrah.
  19. I read it sober and still didn?t understand it. Half a dozen beers didn?t make it any clearer either. I think this thread is from the dark side of the force.
  20. I can?t see why ImgBurn would fail either. Failure could perhaps be measured against the shit job Roxio does with their burn engine. i.e Dumping it onto a disk without caring whether or not there are errors present. It?s far from being the best software available. <personal hate for roxio software mode off>
  21. The CD profile does say MCC and not CMC though.
  22. You put a hell of alot more effort into your backups than I do. I keep duplicates of files that I can?t easily replace (like my mp3s and utils I can?t do without) on a different PC. I?ve learned not to be too concerned if a C: drive bites the dust. Still, this doesn?t solve your original question. I?ll have a look around for you and see what I can find. I assume it?ll have to be able to boot off a floppy
