Thanks

RE: Free Broadband

But surely if you are an existing customer of both Orange mobile and Wanadoo you will be saving £17.99 a month or even if you are already paying this price on say Vodafone then you could change over and save £17.99 a month, correct me if i am wrong.

Free Broadband

Hiya all,

Any customers of Orange who have a mobile phone contract of £30 or more is now entitled to free broadband saving £17.99 a month. Orange have taken over wanadoo and are offering this deal to all new and existing customers....BARGAIN!!

RE: n80 or n91

Timechaser,
I am also leaning towards the N80 as the N91 does seem too big and the N80 has better looks. Just waiting for orange to call me back to confirm my upgrade.

n80 or n91

Hiya all,
gonna be upgrading my phone very soon, but cant decide between the N80 or the N91.

The N91 is great to use as a mp3 player, rather than carry both around, but the N80 has loads of other features too, difficult choice.

Anyone offer some advice?

Steve

advice needed

Hiya all,
I purchased a laptop from pc world in September and in December it developed a fault, so i tried to return it but they said that cos it was passed 28 days they wont exchange but will repair it. So I agreed to this and had it repaired, but now the same fault has occured and pc world say all they will do is repair it again. I feel this is not good enough, the same fault happening twice in 6 months is not good.
Does anyone know if I am entitled to exchange for a different laptop or a full refund. As I feel that if it has happened twice it will happen again and I dont want the warranty to run out and I cant do anything about it.

please help me.

Stephen King The Cell Bargain

Hiya all,
thought I would share this bargain with you all. Went in my local Woolworths on Canvey Island, Essex today and they had hardback copies of Stephen Kings brand new book The Cell which is normally priced £17.99, but marked down to £13.99, which I thought was reasonable and got it for my wife, but when it was scanned in at the till it came up at only £10.99. I dont know if it was just a mistake at my branch or if all Woolworths have it at this price.

RE: taskbar icons

Hi Fred,
I know how to do that, but is there anyway of taking them of the taskbar permanently?

Steve.

RE: laptop problem

Hi Fred,
No it is not the settings cos it also happens when on the mains adaptor, so I dont know what is causing it.

Steve.

taskbar icons

Hiya,
how can I take items of my taskbar? I have found out how I can hide them but I want some things permanently of the taskbar cos there is so much on there that it is slowing my laptop down. I am using xp if that makes a difference to how this is done.

Steve.

RE: laptop problem

It is not a problem with the adaptor cos it just happened while on the battery, so all Ican think is that it has a fault, any ideas please?

Steve

RE: laptop problem

nnnnnnnngggggggg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it has just happened again, it is as if it has a safety cut out or something, but I cant get to the bottom of it.

Steve.

laptop problem

Hiya,
dont know if anyone can help me but the last few days when using my laptop via the power adaptor I have had problems.
It has cut the power off without warning and I cant seem to figure out why, it just completely switches off. So far it has happened 3 times in the last few days and is very annoying especially if you are halfway through something.
Please help me.
Also my battery power only lasts for about 1 hour or so, is there anyway of making this last longer because when i purchased this a couple of months ago from pc world the specs said it has a battery power of upto 3 hours.

Hi,
I am trying to get a new camcorder which enables me to edit the video footage on my pc, but I am a little confused.
I have got it down to a choice of 2, one has dv in and out, the other has dv out and usb connection.
Which one is the best connection to edit the video footage on a pc?

Steve.

Camcorder advice needed

Hiya all,
I am looking at getting a new digital camcorder and need advice. My current one is terrible when I film at discos and parties cos the camera automatically focuses on the disco lights and not the people and everything seems too dark, so I really need one which is good at filming in these conditions and also can attach to my pc for editing.

any suggestions?

RE: Epson R300 - What disks?

Hiya,
basically some of the white topped discs can be printed on but some cant, you just got to check when buying them. I have this printer and it is awesome, the best I have had so far.

RE: belkin wireless modem and router

I have got a cordless phone in the house, so could that serously be causing the problem. How do I go about changing the settings? And if I do manage to change it there is still no guarantee that someone else across the road having the same settings and still interfering again. Is wireless worth having if it causes this much trouble?
