    problems with grub

    Grub is a bootloader for linux, which should give you a list of operting systems to boot, did this computer come with any instructions or discs. It seems like you either have to type in the OS you want, or if yopu just want windows 2000 on it then it would probably just be easier to reinstall it...

    Converting DVD's to laserdisc

    I haven't a clue where you would find a laserdisc recorder, since laserdiscs have been out of production for years now, thats why I can't understand your idea. It would basically be spending a lot of money for not much (if any) end result edit...

    Converting DVD's to laserdisc

    Well, have you got a laserdisc recorder, if so you may be able to plug your DVD player into that, play the dvd and record on the laserdisc machine. Although the reason why I am saying that it seems pointless is that if you already have a copy of something on a DVD, then why spend time...

    Converting DVD's to laserdisc

    Are you sure this is what you want to do, convert your DVD's to the much bigger laserdisc, this seems pointless to me, as you will not gain any quality due to being unable to undo any compression made on the dvd, if you are wanting to convert laserdisc to dvd on the otherhand then you will need...

    Who should be responsible for an illegal windows copy? Poll

    I've just voted the customer who hands it to the person who is installing it, although after thinking about it i'm not sure. I think the customer is in the wrong for having an illegal copy of windows in the first place, although if the installer also knows it is illegal then they are accepting...

    Server question

    What OS is this server running? If it's windows then it's probably be best to install apache web server, and configure that to display all files in the directory your files are in, and Share the folder over the network, if it's linux then do the same thing, but you may need to install samba to...

    help with ibook

    That link you posted isn't working, although first you should check what the maximum amount of ram your ibook can hold is, then just get 200 pin so-dimm DDR PC2100 ram of your choice. I think that virtually any of these will work...

    TelNet & SSH

    SSH is a secure version of telnet (i think). They are both basically ways of connecting to a remote server to administrate it through the command line/terminal. It is like remote desktop, but in commmand prompt. I use SSH to connect to a Linux computer I have for testing stuff, and to connect...

    Is this true?

    The IT Teacher at my school asked me this once, he didn't know that either but my [probably totally wrong stupid full of nonsense] theory is that yes, it would be slightly heaver, as when you burn data the disc is been burned, therefore some kind of reaction would take place, and possibly more...

    Making a Website

    When you buy a domain you will need to set it up so that the nameservers point to that of your dad's server, and on his server you will have to setup the domain so the server knows what to do with it. I'm not sure what you mean by hosted domain, but if your dad has his own server then all you...

    installing vista

    1. You can use vista's built in partitoner, it should do the job just fine so long as you don't have any linux distro's installed 2. Vista's own should be fine, again, so long as you don't have any linux distros installed as it will detect XP 3. Not sure, best way to find out is to install it...
