My daughter got "The Sims 4" game as a Christmas present and loaded it onto her Acer Aspire One D257 netbook but the game won't run.

Anyone else had this problem or have any solutions?

RE: MPEG vs MP4

Thanks, Rob.

MPEG vs MP4

I'm going to rip some DVDs onto a 128gb memory stick and was wondering what other forum members thoughts on which format to rip to...MPEG or MP4?

Your comments and thoughts would be appreciated.

Surely Celtic fans abuse of coloured Rangers players counts as racism?

RE: Rangers going belly up?

Rob, its Celtic who sing the anti-British songs, if thats what you mean?

Does anyone else agree that the above forum is the worst run on the internet?


I`ve just picked up my second ban in a week for complaining about harrassment but those who are doing it are allowed to flourish! Another member complaining about the same people has been banned for life! Thank goodness the mods on here are more fair minded!

vTuner

Hi all,

Does anyone else have the misfortune to have vTuner as their internet streaming provider?


I bought a Sony CMT-MX 750Ni hifi late last year and vTuner are the streaming provider. To date I have found them the most unreliable of all the streamers. They do not do regular updates for receivers (my last update was over 2 weeks ago!) therefore when they add a suggested station to their listings, the new station appears on their website but not on receivers!


Unfortunately there doesn`t appear to be anyway of adding Reciva or any other provider to the receiver...most disappointing. I was wondering if any other members had this problem with vTuner?

RE: iPod Classic Cover Flow problem

Re 2), I`ve tried this...any other suggestions?

iPod Classic Cover Flow problem

Hi all,

I have a 5th generation 160gb iPod Classic and I have an on-going problem with Cover Flow.

Cover Flow displays the cd covers but then hits two problems;
1. some cds are duplicated (with exact same track listings)
2. some (mainly various artists) cds have mulitiple listings, each showing different artists.

I`ve tried filling out the various boxes in "Get Info" in iTunes (Sort Album, Sort Artist etc) but the problems keep re-occurring. Any suggestions please?

RE: DVD Shrink not working

Strangely enough I`ve just installed it on my new laptop, using Nero 7 Ultra and Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit) and it works fine!


Anyhow, as other forum members think DVD Shrink is outdated, any suggestions what similar software I should try instead?

DVD Shrink not working

I`m running it on Windows 7 Ultimate with Nero 7...any suggestions???

RE: Radio Downloader has stopped working

Has anyone any further suggestions or have experienced this problem in the last 10 days or so has it seems to be a widespread problem among users.

RE: Radio Downloader has stopped working

I`ve tried uninstalling/reinstalling several times but no luck :(

Strangely it works ok on my laptop :/

Radio Downloader has stopped working

When I try to open Radio Downloader I get the above error message and that Windows is trying to solve the problem. The error box then disappears and nothing happens.

Any help or suggestions please?

USB 2.0 ports

I have a 5 year old Packard Bell iMedia pc which has 2 USB 2.0 ports and 2 USB 1.1 ports at the rear of the tower.

I was wondering, apart from putting USBs into each port, is there way of physically identifing which is which?

RE: Welsh Clubs in the English Football League

Just to correct an earlier poster, both Rangers (1873) and Celtic (1888) were formed before the Scottish League started in 1890 so, in theory, both could have joined the Football League.

And, if memory serves me correctly, both Rangers and Queens Park competed in the FA Cup.

RE: HELLO-----IS THERE ANYONE STILL WATCHING!!!

Unfortunately people don`t seem too interested in easter eggs anymore :(

Do dvd releases still have them? :/

I`d love a copy if anyone could oblige.

Beady Eye "The Roller"

Did anyone on here have a spare copy of the numbered limited edition of Beady Eye`s "The Roller" single which was available via the band`s website yesterday (Friday)?

I didn`t get a chance to check the site until later in the day and I missed it :(

Email retrieval???

Today I (hurriedly) set up MS Outlook and it download all the Inbox from my email server (BT Yahoo).

Is there anyway of restoring the emails to my BT Yahoo inbox as I forgot to tick the "Leave a copy on my server" option?
