RE: Freddy Got Fingered - The Worst Movie You will ever see

Yup, I found it really funny, and have watched it a few times. Must be my warped sense of humour!

RE: What`s your IQ?

IQ tests mean nothing. Mine is 158, but that doesn`t mean I`m more intelligent than someone who scored lower, it just means that I`m better at solving logic related problems. Plus I hate any test where you can guess the correct answer even if you haven`t got a clue, it gives you a 25% chance of getting it right before you start.

RE: ex-itv Digital viewers : Sky installed for a £1 (some conditions)

If you order things from Sky Active then it usually has to do this by dialing through the phone line, same goes if you want to watch any of the pay per views or extra films you have to pay for. The box doesn`t have to be connected to a phone line if you dont want to have any of these extras, mine hasn`t been connected for over a year.

RE: Dansai 852

It has only frozen on me once while watching `One Night At McCools`. Other than that had no problems at all with it, an excellent DVD player and a bargin.

RE: Network card for broadband

Thanks for that Mike. I don`t have one of the extra sockets you described, and the things under Network Adapter were :
Direct Parallel
RAS Async Adapter
WAN Miniport (IP)
WAN Miniport (L2TP)
WAN Miniport (PPPOE)
WAN Miniport (PPTP)

Network card for broadband

Really dumb question here, but I`m gonna get Blueyonder broadband and they have asked me if I already have a network card installed. Now I only bought my computer just over a year ago, and have recently installed XP home. How do I tell if one is installed, and if it is what sort???

yup, if its an online retailer you are after, i`d try http://www.play.com/

Lip Sync Problems

Hi..... I`ve got a Bush 2011 (same as an early Alba model), and the lip sync is out, which is majorly annoying. The dvd player is only attached by a scart to the tv (but I have got dvd attached to stereo with the red/white audio wires). Anybody got any ideas to get rid of this problem???

Hi

I`ve tried a few of my local stores but none of them have it in stock. I live in the Walsall area (West Midlands). Any help would be greatly appreciated as I`ve only got tomorrow off work :o(
