RE: 14" TV/DVD Combi Only £59.99

Sweet Zombie Jesus, plus £20 postage and packaging? :o

if it`d have been £59.99 all inclusive, yes it would be a good deal and i would have got it, but £20 postage is very steep.

RE: RELISYS DVD Recorder for £89 @ STAPLES

So far i`ve tried a region 1 and it doesnt work, i`ll give the company a ring tommorow to see what the situation is, unless anyone else already knows? lol

RE: 2 computers connected to broadband at same time??

RE: 2 computers connected to broadband at same time??

hi
Cheers for the reply.. The guy i spoke to at AOL, told me that i`d definitly be able to have 2 computers on line at the same time with our seperate screen names (we both do share the same master account but have individual screen names) if we had a home network setup. He said we have 2 weeks free trial and if he dont like it we can said it back with no charges at all. I hope this is the case..lol...as the only reason i am opting for aol bb, is the fact we are on it now and we get the free upgrade.

If it does nock us off, can you recommened any good services? we cant get NTL as we dont have cable or access to cable at the present time.

cheers

2 computers connected to broadband at same time??

Hi everyone
I recently ordered broadband from AOL, it still hasnt arrived yet but theirs a few questions i hope people can help me with

firstly, We have 2 computers in our house, 1 in my room 1 downstairs, and i was wondering does anyone now if it will be possible for us both to be connected to broadband and be online at the same time??

I have heard someone talk about setting up a network, but i`ve very basic computer knowledge and was hoping someone could help?

Does anyone already have 2 computers connected to broadband? if so how does it work and how much did it cost to set everything up?

Cheers, hope this post made sense to a few of you..lol

RE: Question about Macrovision?

Yeah, a couple of my mates at work have told me about that machine, they all recommend it highly. I just bought the one from Superdrug, and finally got the hack for it, now plays VCD`s, DVDR and MP3`s. It also has the option to turn off macro, tried taping a couple of dvd onto vhs for my sister worked great.

I suppose when I really know what i`m talking about and know exacly whats what, thats when i`ll look for a main dvd player..

Anyway cheers for the help

SuperDrug player problems...Anyone help?

Hi i just bought the DVD player from superdrug, they have about 7 left in Old Trafford as of 10:00am this morning.

However i cant play VCD on it, i`ve read the post`s before, and from what i gather people are saying it does play, VCD...Their is the VCD logo on the screen itself...

I`ve put the Acoustic Solutions 421 Multi region hack on, and that works fine. Is their a particular region i set it to so i play VCD? I`ve tried setting it to all of the individual regions, but still no look...

Is their another hack that i am missing? Or do i have a faulty DVD player?

Thanks in advance

RE: Question about Macrovision?

Thanks for taking the time to answer, I`m really greatful that you cleared that up for me..

Can you recomend a good DVD player with Macro turned off, that also plays VCD and DVDR?

Again thanks for replying

Question about Macrovision?

Hi everyone

Could someone please tell me exacly what macrovision is? I am very confused. I was lead to believe that if Macrovision can be disabled, you can tape the dvd to a vhs. Could some please confirm this for me please or tell exacly what macrovision is?

Thanks in advance

Can anyone help me? (which DVD to buy ?)

Hi everyone.

I`m relativley new to buying dvd`s and have had a pacfic 1002 (I think that`s the model, half silver half black from Asda originally £85) for around 6 months.

I now want to purchase a better dvd player, for a Christmas and I was wondering does anyone know what the cheapest and best dvd is and where to get it?

Ideally, i`d want a dvd player that can play multi region, vcd and have macro turned off, and I`m looking to spend around £100 at the most.

Thanks in advance, and i hope this is the right forum for this post, if not apologises...
