Nokiamies

i mean near when higher than 1.5€. Here current fuel prices here. 1.7€ per litre is what local station shows for now. Been going up lately and soon will get 30 or more cent jump since goverment is having great ideas

what hardware it was? How much ram, what cpu, gpu, hdd etc. I had exactly opposite experience on my systems and never had those issues. Sounds you had no proper video drivers/ones provided were bad or just bad luck.

will cause major issue if work require transport with car. You cannot carry van amount stuff on hand or bus. Here fuel costs too much already. near 2€ per litre back in day many were happy to have any phone and did not upgrade it every so often or whined "but it's oooold". Then idea that "Phone can replace pc" came. For me only use my 6600 as digital calendar (sync with pc and outlook 2002 to have same notes and contacts) and random shots For proper photos got Canon Powershot g6 from 2004. It works like charm still and can even do large memory cards, record decent video, took high quality photos. Also got Nikon coolplix l29 as pocket camera. Both been lasting well and been useful I got 1gb and 4gb mp3 players that are unbranded and old. Both are those classic flash drive sized players with black and white display and backlit and serves me well. Also both got audio recorder and fm radio with rds I use mine on hiking/walking sometimes and with special Panasonic AA rechargable batteries I bought. With it I reach around same playtime as you even on cold winter. For me 1gb is enough fill many CD worth of music with decent (near cd) audio quality. I am not fan of Spotify or Itunes or other streaming services. I got my music as physical copies and thanks to law allowing backup disks to own use got them on hdd and mp3 player too. No ads, no nags, work outside carrier reception, no need pay every month for something you wont own

also blocking UPNP on network helps. Otherwise even javascript can open port from firewall even if blocked it manually. You do not need UPNP to 95% of things.

bicycle depends if lot snow and roads have not been cleared yet then might be hard but even then can walk. Old army bicycles are option for cold endurance. Full steel frame, wide tires, no gears or handbrakes. I used to have one of those then did mistake and changed it aluminum toy that went to warranty once already since busted frame... plan get another of those army bikes some day. What comes to walking just get one of those thermal bags to phones and buy army winter jacket and gloves militaries sells as spares (british, finnish, german army atleast do so). With those can walk without worries even at near -40c to work and back. I did so during this year and 2 winters ago with bicycle. Finnish sisu is not just myth, it is reality But during summer we have warm weather allowing better use bicycles. Feels good to only use T-Shirt when bit over month ago still had heavy army jacket and gloves

all you need is Windows 10 install medium. I have done clean install to ssd without preloading Windows 7 or 8.1 using win7 key

it is quite funny how many who do not understand German language proper listens german bands. German language sounds so strong I guess to be nice to listen even if wont understand

Windows 8.1 none since can upgrade only to win10 for free. And on Windows 10 Windows 10 professional

Here they also they ignore weather conditions. Where most leaders live temperature rarely reaches even -10c while rest half of the country temperature can have up to -40c cold. That will cause extremely low ranges or cause car not work at all. Consider it like cellphone or flashlight battery on cold. You will run out of it too quickly. That requires more recharges that consumes more energy, put more strain on electric grid (in Finland we sometimes at -35 reached near limit of our power grid and were advised not to use saunas on too long and avoid excess use of lights. Add 2 million or more electric cars to that on chargers. Network would need insane amount of upgrade and also lot of new plants and of course those would be "clean" nuclear power plants (let just ignore all reactor accidents in a world and fact Finland could produce energy without it). Also cold and extra charge cycles required will shorten battery lifespan and need new batteries faster. Better long term soluction would be alternate energies that could work with current cars. There has been research from biofuels here and atleast before they offered cheap e85 conversion kits to cars to run on bioethanol. Bioethanol is not perfect mostly since petrol got much more energy and for that reason needs, but overtime alternate fuels will get better. Also finland got best recycle system in world, here forest owners plants new trees in place of old ones when cut them and that helps to co2. Those in addition of alternate fuels could help properly against climate change that works well if town got living areas within 5-10km from centre and got proper walking lanes like in my home city. You can get well with car, bicycle or walking and I wont drive a lot. I even walk to work at mornings around 5-6am and walk around 8-9km in hour. Less co2 and better health thanks to it. Just enjoy sunrise and fresh air. I only needed bus few times and train few times atleast when I was kid still my parents had one car so did most of friends parents. One car did fine enough since bicycles and walking. You definitely do not need one if you got good connections on town. Car is moneywaster unless use it a lot. Any car will need spare parts at some point and depending what broke can be pain and expensive to repair so no shame if wont have one

If key has not been previously used you should be working still to Windows 10 upgrade. Just enter key during fresh install of Windows 10. I did it bit over month ago to one and it worked still with win7 starter key so it very likely still works

My favorite is Rammstein. I do not understand german language but german music just sounds so good. I also listen lot of Leevi and the Leavings, Arttu Wiskari, Yö, Green Day, ACDC, Queen, Beatles, ABBA and list would be too long if would list all I listen but those where what listen mostly

That consumption is decent for engine that size so if got excess fuel use it is not too high but may drop a bit after car light goes off blinking light is bad and loss of rpm is due misfire. Engine light when yellow or static is ok but blinking or red is serious. Misfire can be caused by multiple things. Have you changed ignotion coils and timing chain/belt? And misfire should be resolved as soon as can or may permanent engine damage on volkswagen (european models atleast) it is under steering wheel under lid

you have likely never driven Saab 900 turbo or old Volvo. French cars fell apart even as brand new. Saab and Volvo tested cars to safety since 1980 and seen saab getting hit hard to side without driver injuries and doing barrel roll and on both driver survived no injuries and car body held expect bumper and few other parts which absorded energy. They were overkill on safety back in day and still are. But yeah would avoid most of old cars for that reason. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9fw9nou_G8 here video from what topgear where they more extreme with 1980 saab 900 turbo yeah not like Volkswagen or other faked their modern car emission tests ever. VW jetta diesel versions had sensor detecting emission test and reduced engine power to pass and be was not only company which did/is doing so. So I really would not trust company wording about them. And good luck trying reach those emission or consumptions in real life. Only time had was because had water on fuel tank on one Opel (since near empty tank for too long and cold and warm). What year car you got? For most cars cheap eml327 dongle will do the trick. It will simply pop in. You can find one off ebay. Then you need diag software that can work with your car. For GM it is hardest find one since GM does something to make code access hard using third party utils (also affect Opels which were owned by GM). Newest car I know EML dongle to work is my friend 2009 Honda Civic SI. Also if your car is old enough/manufacture is kind enough to allow it there may be secret button combination to show error code on radio display or at digital mileage/metric meter on dashboard. You can find if there is any to your car using forums and others. It can be O2 sensor too that monitor exhaust emission to adjust engine. Do you have excess fuel use or lack of horsepower? For example car is not stable on idle or to accerelate. Not neccessarily catalysator fault One other thing that may trigger error light is dirty injection system. Not always catalysator unless you got exact ecu error code. If code wont point to catalysator I would recommend unplugging that battery for while, get fuel injector cleaner and add it to petrol. Then drive car fuel tank near empty and refill it to max and see if stays away. HOWEVER. If you plan pull battery make sure car manuals says you can (due some new ones got that thing on ecu causing engine not to work) and that you know possible radio unlock code. Some cars need code to unlock radio after unplugging. If car need code it is usually back of owner manual otherwise no worries. And for final do not get me wrong. I am not modern stuff hater that "modern technology is bad and cannot see good sides". I am not hating modern or old techology, I hate abusive technology. Nowadays planned obsolence, user tracking every single way, limit what user can do with equipment they paid,advertising and other so I do not want use some products for that reason. I do have lot of modern technlogy at home and can say that some things like hard drives, fan bearings/bearings overall for example have improved a lot in recent years. Had not have bad sectors on hdd and bad sectors are not ok anymore, they are defect, SSD brings speed while no need worry head crash if drop laptop or move it too quickly. I try select products that easily fixable, reliable, not too locked down or contain too abusive features. Examples of what I find as abusive features are advertisement in OS by default (Windows 95 IE4 desktop update, Windows 98FE, Android (non degoogled), IOS. MacOS, Windows 8, Windows 10, Tiger Telematics Gizmondo smart adds version (luckily Never had or saw one), modern car navigators (Android auto)) Old and modern technology can and will live in harmony just fine atleast on me. And I do not say I am right, these are just my opinions and I respect other opinions as long other respect mines and wont push their opinions down anyones throat. Like my signature has "if it works for the user"

Have patience. I got radio dongle attached to pc and use RTL-SDR to listen HAM radio. Just leave your reciever to freqs allowed use by HAM radio operators on local area and at some point you will hear broadcasting. Also proper antenna helps a lot to receieve.

Bomfunk MC's - Freestyler (1999).

I would say technology was better in 1990-early 2000. Todays tech is not meant to last and is tries actively prevent user repairs or modifications examples being efuses and trusted chain of boot(xbox and smartphones as example) that makes hard or near impossible replace cpu, flash or run custom firmware. Back in original xbox and nokia days peoples did custom firmwares to phones that could be flashed using cheap diy cables (nokias) or used with simple flash chip (original xbox) then anti modding/repair came "in benefit of consumers". I believe users should have freedom modify products they pay without company bricking it or getting sued. Back then was not uncommon for cars to have diagnostic trough dashboard (OBD/Early ODB2) if car had ecu and not carburator engine. Most cars had keycombo to print errors on digital mileage display (like both left wing buttons). At best car had tools and service manual included. But if could choose would roll back even to 2010 from todays tech since was less bad. How you supposed to drive Escort if need pay multiple euros per litre of petrol plus heavy emission tax? Here they push that to make peoples buy brand new cars. I do not want Tesla, I do not want modern car. My problem is not fact it is new it is fact that modern cars logs everything you do and send it to manufacture, they actively try prevent even simple repairs even as simple as changing battery may cause loss of horsepower or car refusing turn on unless override (which is not allowed by manufacture) or taking it to offical service to reset it. If I pay from something I want full control over it. Second issue is car as platform. For example BMW and Tesla disables some things like seatwarmers unless buy subscribtion even they are built in to car. Then fact EV performs horribly on our winters. We can get down to -40 degrees celcius at winter and seen plenty of EV and other modern cars side or road since wont start or EV battery run out. And having plug for engine block heater, fuel based engine block heater or EV charge stations wont solve issue since many places cannot have those just for simple reason as place got no electricity in place you visit. Oldschool Lada, Opel, Volvo or Saab will output lot of smoke and sound loud at cold start during winter but it will start and can drive and is relatively easy to service. That I know from experience with cars. Peoples should buy modern cars because they are better, reliable etc. not because they are forced to

Well Logitech got bad tendency to hide or remove support from products, so wouldn't trust their requirements always rather check release notes. One example was my g110 keyboard, it showed no Windows XP as driver support list but found offical driver and suite to it from 2012 that was no longer on their site Second example was Logitech extreme 3d pro that been on sales since early 2000. On it sites it showed following requirements: Windows® 8, Windows 7 or Windows Vista 70 MB of available hard disk space it definitely does not need driver since works out of box down to Windows 98, HDD space requirement is not real since no need their utility. Originally Logitech site listed Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows ME, Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 as supported OS then all expect Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 disappeared and site lists no Windows 10 as supported even it uses generic drivers. I bought mine last year brand new from retail store and it was and still is on sales so yeah hard to say what os is supported sometimes by them

Here is english Internet explorer 8 installer for Windows XP It is indeed Pos ready 2009 update but pos ready 2009 is same as xp so you can use Posready 2009 updates on xp. You only need This registry file. Double click it and click yes when asked. Then update will work That is not even noob question. I need work with new systems too often and feel like total noob sometimes even though got lot of industry experience . Better ask than just do and mess stuff up.

I got same but reverse. I trust email client more since can force all messages to plaintext and no need load UI over internet.

I said would recommend not that need to do did not notice it Any Internet explorer version was never good, but some software I use on XP uses Internet exploiter to download plugins and lack of cipher suites caused major issues (include your own downloader to code devs...). It is not to browse web rather fix possible future issues related sw using ie and needing tls 1.1 or 1.2

Hello from Finland and welcome to msfn MSFN is so far only board where criticising "teh latest and greatest" os and saying uses Windows XP does not result personal insults like "you are paranoid, stupid etc" and use "latest Windows and do whatever you did on vm" and like it for that. Can talk with like minded peoples. Do not get me wrong I am fine peoples using whatever works for them but do not like when something "mandotary" I do not like is pushed down my throat (i.e: IE, Edge, touch screen phones (my good old Nokia 6600 is going strong still but it is bad apparently since "Symbian is dead" but I wont care), chrome, Windows 8, Windows 10, anything that blocks user repairs). I defend ability to choose what you use. Market should be fair and new products, operating systems and software should be used because they are better not because they are forced as only option. first of all I would recommend update Internet explorer to support TLS 1.2 and 1.1 even if wont need it since some sw uses ie to connect. To do it you need this and this guide how enable it here. Then update root certificates using this. To browse web use Mypal by Feodor2 or Newmoon browser by RoyTam. For email use Mailnews by RoyTam. It supports O2Auth, tls 1.3 and all other thunderbird 52 supports. Easiest way install RoyTam1 browser and email client is use I430VX browser installer. That thing makes is super easy and use it myself. I am running Windows XP most of time outside my work, I got RTL-SDR based radioscanner and using SDRSharp to scan frequencies, DVBViewer with Happauge WinTV solohd tv tuner (slightly modded drivers), perihepals like digital cameras, game controllers, multimedia keyboard (Logitec g110), 16:10 24" widescreen monitor (Dell ultrasharp 2407WFP 1920x1200) I am syncing my Nokia 6600 phone contacts and calendar and transferring camera pictures, recordings with pc using Nokia pc suite for 6600. I play lot of games, listen music, watch videos/movies, edit videos, edit audio (backported audacity), check email, scan radio frequencies to find interesting things, watch and record TV and manage my Esxi home server. So yeah you can do lot on XP and even run it as daily OS and be relatively secure (nothing is unbreakable but hardening helps a lot). Windows XP board on MSFN is best to ask questions if got any sounds familiar. I got plenty of pending projects and mainboards waiting chassis. For one Windows 95 pc (Slot 1 celeron 266mhz, 256mb ram, Nvidia tnt2, 20gb hdd I ended up painting one damaged and ugly cheap chassis with dark metallic car paint because looked cool. I nicknamed that computer to Opel-PC since spray used on it and because it original fans sounded like revving engine

I bought 1tb wd black mobile hard drive to my 2006 laptop running Windows XP professional (HP Compaq nc6320) . Depending from use it may be needed. For example I got truckloads of movies, videos, music, games, software on mine also multiple virtual machines. I like that laptop for being "tank" (strong, thick and durable case), size of it and weight. Hard to find modern laptop that is as durable without breaking bank

then how can I use samsung ssd with my Windows 98 computer . SSD or hdd wont need driver, however interface it is connected (sata, m2, msata) needs magician atleast on my experience offered drive health and ability trigger trim to ssd but modern SSD got good garbage collector built in so trim is not neccessary and crystaldiskinfo shows drive health as well

good it is working for you Also in case anyone else got old machine without network card and would want use it Protoweb (like me) or just want enjoy going internet with Dial-up connection experience for nostalgia you can use virtual PPP serial modem running on raspberry pi or other linux system. It can do speeds up to 115200bps and works with standard Dial-up software. I am currently using it to browse Protoweb on my Digital Venturis 466 computer running Netscape Navigator 3 Gold on Windows 3.11 WFW. Dial-up is being handled by Trumpet Winsock. It also works natively with Windows 95 and higher built in Microsoft Dial-up networking

ok if any problems let me know
