Logical fallacy detected. You cannot bring up an omission (and particularly an omission by comparison) to support your theory. The preamble on the given page states: I asked to provide some source to backup your (repeated) statements , not - in the absence of them - to attempt nitpicking on the source I provided in support of the opposite. What is logical sometimes differs from reality.

Sure . Google for "record once". You will see - by the lack of any meaningful results - how any info on this widely used technology is hushed up . The "copy once" is actually re-known: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copy_Control_Information and the single allowed copy would normally go on a DVR: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_video_recorder And of course there is no technology available to duplicate such a recording and/or re-record the output stream of a playing video and/or to connect the video entertainment system to a PC. And in very few households a PC equipped with a DVD recorder is available. And noone, with the exception of a very restricted number of highly educated and specialized technicians can - when free from their daily routine dedicated to rocket science and brain surgery - actually operate those high tech, I would say futuristic, devices. Let's see if we can make some rough calculations. Cost of a "TV box DVD recorder" (where available) US$ 150-200 Cost of a recordable DVD (media) US$ 0.80/4.7 Gb=US$ 0.17/Gb TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) of a video library consisting of 200 movies = 150+200*0.8=310 US$ -> 310/200=US$ 1.55/movie Cost of hard disk storage (typical USB hard disk) : 1 Tb US$ 80.00/1,000 Gb=US$ 0.08/Gb -> TCO of a library of 250 movies=US$ 80.00 -> US$ 0.53/movie 2 Tb US$ 120.00/2,000 Gb= US$ 0.06/Gb -> TCO of a library of 500 movies=US$ 120.00-> US$ 0.24/movie Hassle level with DVD's (changing them, make a coaster from time to time, noise when fast forwarding, space to store them, time to find the actual DVD you want to watch, etc.): very high Hassle level with hard disk video recording: very low. DVD: Possibility of bringing with you on holidays or to a friend's, or however "on the move" your WHOLE movie library: NONE HD: Possibility of bringing with you on holidays or to a friend's, or however "on the move" your WHOLE movie library: VERY EASY. I would dare to make the hypothesis that the market for something that has a TCO that is at the very least three times that of another suitable alternative, which additionally offers much more comfort/features/portability (and what not) may be restricted by different reasons than the conspiracy of the majors. jaclaz

Also locking firearms into safes/special cases/lockers/etc. makes for a slower reaction in case of danger but increases security if you have other people in the house against accidental mishandling. The word of the day is trade-off : http://www.thefreedictionary.com/trade-off jaclaz

Let's talk seriously for one moment. I pay a service by means of a yearly (payed in advance) fee. Then the provider decides (please mind the meaning of the verb, it is not "was forced to" or "the Devil made he do it" or "world financial crises caused", it's "decides" ) to shut down the service, without warning and thus giving me no time to backup locally the whatever of value relevance he has been hosting. AND he asks me to give him some more money for funding his defense about something he won't talk about in detail (this time very probably because he is not allowed to). Then another service, decides preventively, to shut down as well without warning AND deletes all my contents he is hosting (in order to protect me). Ordinarily, this would lead in no time to a Class Action Suit for breach of contract, asking for damages. Imagine that you are a subscriber to (say) Disney Channel through Sky and Mr. Murdoch decides to shut down the satellites AND remotely deletes the movies you saved in your TV-HD boxes, he would additionally face charges of being mean to minors. Or imagine that you have rented a storage box where you have put temporarily some of your possessions and the owner decides to shutdown the utility, empty all boxes, without giving you a suitable advance notice. Just in the case of the MegaUpload, the actual victims are those customers that used the service lawfully and payed for a service that not only is abruptly stopped, but that also implies losing integrally - I presume a vast majority of users of those services are/were "legitimate" and were in perfect good faith trusting their data in the hands of such providers - your data. Set apart the specific reasons, who's responsability it is, and what not, including privacy concerns, it is another good reason to NOT trust the cloud in any way, your data is stored *somewhere* (of which you know nothing) and *anything* (ADDITIONAL to "Acts of God" such as wars, tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, etc.) can make it go poof in no time. jaclaz

This is debatable. The essence of the EULA (provided that the EULA actually represents a legally binding contract between you and MS, which in itself is highly debatable) grants you a lifetime right to use that OS, subject to a number of limitations. In the EULA the part related to activation should be: So, you install the (regularly bought) software,go to install it and - according to the EULA - you actually "supply" to the good MS guys the "information required" AND you do that "in the manner described during the setup sequence of the Product", but they don' t activate the license anymore. Guess who is not fulfilling the obligations in the contract? jaclaz

Can you provide *any* documentation to support these statements? Last time I checked the intention of AVG (and most similar antivirus tools for Linux): https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus was to avoid that any "Windows" virus or malware was served through the Linux server. jaclaz

It's not a problem with English. It's a problem with your eyesight. From the photo the terminals of the USB to TTL converter are marked clearly. You want to use the first three (from the bottom right in the photo) which are: GND->Ground (goes on GND or ground on the hard disk) RxD->Rx (goes on Tx on the hard disk) TxD->Tx (goes on Rx on the hard disk) WHAT is the problem? jaclaz

Again, IF you provide the EXACT and COMPLETE *whatever* sets of files/settings that currently do not work for you , THEN possibly someone can have a look at them and (hopefully ) point out what is "wrong" with them. Otherwise it would be (educated or wild ) guessing (and a not-so-trifling waste of time with possibly no useful result ). See if this clears the matters: http://homepage.ntlworld.com./jonathan.deboynepollard/FGA/problem-report-standard-litany.html You are seemingly (still) at the "I'm ill, doctor. Help!". jaclaz

I cannot see why you extend to the whole forum the total inadequacy of my suggestions (exception made for those that worked for you). You should blame ONLY me for them. jaclaz

No, not exactly If your BIOS does not support switching to "IDE emulation mode", you need to *somehow* "add" the drivers. There are several way to do that, and not only using nlite. Did you follow EXACTLY this guide for the attempt with nlite? http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/107504-integration-of-intels-sata-ahci-and-raid-drivers/ If yes, and it didn't work , try leaving nlite alone and just slipstream the needed drivers: http://www.911cd.net/forums//index.php?showtopic=189 http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/view/web/33/ http://unattended.msfn.org/unattended.xp/view/web/36/ or use a "F6 floppy" (real or virtual), or try using the drivers Pack: http://driverpacks.net/ There is more than one way to skin a cat .

No , no more advices from me, not only for this particular issue of yours, also for any other future issue you may be asking assistance for on MSFN. I wonder why, if it's clear (to you) that the event logs will not log anything, you actually looked in them, and actually tried searching for an entry you found in it (that shouldn't be there according to you), already knowing it would lead you nowhere, and as a matter of fact you went all the way and asked how to put in practice the same remedies that were made for a similar entry (which you already know that is unrelated). Interesting, open-minded approach for someone that until a few days ago didn't even know that event logs existed. If you have some spare time, check your dictionary and encyclopedia, you may find interesting words and concepts, just as a couple examples: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/gratitude http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troubleshooting Have fun.

Where did you find that "Reset to device, \Device\RaidPort0, was issued." if not in the event logs? Now, looking in the backup of the event logs you made initially, you can search for that kind of event, and see if it happened often. Likely you will find besides similar Warnings, also some errors related to hard disk devices, like *simillar* to the one mentioned in the thread "The device, \Device\Ide\iaStor0, did not respond within the timeout period." jaclaz

So let's fix first something that causes no problems in not for anyone that needs/wants to see the profile of a single user out of what? 100,000 members profiles, just because it is "easy"? Interesting approach. If technology evolved like that we would be using a very nicely decorated set of jaclaz
