**ChiangMai noon** · 22-02-2009, 09:20 PM

i don't often pop in to my windows partition anymore.

i sometimes do on a saturday or sunday night to listen to the football because try as i might i can't get BBC real player to work in ubuntu.

i have no idea what a virus manifests itself as but my windows shit thing is going blink blink blink..over and over and over.

i went to walk the dogs and it's still going blink blink blink.

blink for a second, colour for a jot etc...........

what a bolluk ache.

in the past i'd have had to call the computer bloke from work.

thankfully now, i have an operating system that doesn't go flakie.

what a pile of poo.

really.

I just got a new mac, way better than my old pc but I am finding out the hassle of some of the things I am used to don't work on macs. I'll get windows installed on it this week and run parallels. I was suprised to learn that onspeed won't work on macs with intel processors and my nokia software isn't supported (yet), I really need those two.

- What are you using OnSpeed for? Mostly to speed up downloads, or to give you a perceived speed increase of your internet access?

- Nokia has a Mac compatible software suite - grab it from here:

Nokia Multimedia Transfer 1.4 software download - Mac OS X - VersionTracker

(Versiontracker is your friend)

I had to get something printed a few weeks ago so I went to the local internet cafe as I dont have a printer, I hope they dont understand English too well as I was muttering all sorts of swear words under my breath when trying to eject my USB memory stick and just getting the "cant be ejected" error all the while

*mutter* stupid fucking dumb c**ting pile of shit, why dont you just fucking work *mutter*

Its been so long since Ive used it regularly that it just frustrates me with everything I try and do. Its just a hassle for me to use it, I'll take my laptop next time and hook that up.

my windows partition is blinking.

you the expert.

what can i do to stop it?

**lom** · 22-02-2009, 10:19 PM

You probably set your Win partition so smallish that there is no or limited swap file space.
Give it back some space from Ubuntu

You should thank Linus Torvalds and the GNU guys, god has nothing to do with GNU/Linux.

But you're right, even if the Linux distros are sometime a pain in the a**, at least it works. Mandriva 2009 on my laptop, not the best release but OK.

Since november I'm a Mac switcher, and it's by far the best OS I've had. My iMac is greaaaaaat.

Simply delete the partition, just a waste of harddisk space.

**melvbot** · 22-02-2009, 11:00 PM

What do you need the Win partition for Noony?

You could make a Win XP live CD and just use that instead.

Great innit. Have had genuine windows on my 2 1/2 yr old laptop since day one and have never had one crash/problem. Not one. Bloody brilliant to have such a reliable OS that never fails you, eh.

Maybe 100 bahts ? But the guenine CD at ~ 3000 bahts shouldn't work better.

What if someone gives you a free tool, that is better than the old tool that you bought and so you use the new free tool and say the old tool is shit, because it is shit?

That dog has different fleas... I use both, so you're preaching to the choir... It's all about using the right tool for the job and understanding what it's doing when the little red light goes blink-blink-blink...

only thing he does is clicks on firefox and clicks on a video to play it.
