    LiamC's new page

    Nice site LiamC. Although, after visiting your new site and then clicking on a link for your original site, as like that one too. Seeing someone's new site and code always makes you think how you can change your own, again.

    Subject: Life was good when....

    I'm sorry Mercutio. It is sad to see a fellow so depressed. Obviously, no type of drink from me will fix that. How do you think that could be fixed, so that you could at least say that your glass was half empty?

    Gene Ziegler - a.k.a Dr. Zseuss

    The index for his online work is located here. The poem A Grandchild's Guide To Using Grandpa's Computer is fun to read, as well are some of his other works. Since he has had some copyright issues, I've decided not to reprint his work in this forum.

    Stupid P4 chipset question

    The Gigabyte GA-8IEMK would seem to fit Tannin a bit better. It comes with integrated sound and LAN, but not integrated video or RAID. The downside is that it only comes with 3 PCI slots. But considering the two integrated components, that is not bad. I suppose the most common adapter cards...

    Adcadet, just as a note, it would be best if you had a program that would write zeros to the first few cylinders on the drive. FDISK and FORMAT, or even FDISK /MBR don't always clean the Master Boot Sector. Programs such as Linux and NT write interesting code in their that helps them translate...

    As Timwhit mentioned, getting the CD-ROM support is critical. If your Windows 98 diskette is a Windows 98 Startup diskette, or if you can make one, then you'll have the necessary ATAPI drivers load for CD-ROM support.

    Thinking back on the movie: Zulu, I was reminded how Reverend Witt pathetically turned to alcohol for solace as his faith in God proved to be shallow. He didn’t represent the phrase “stiff upper lip”, which is sad, since he had the opportunity to have as strong a conviction in his beliefs as...
