Not. It's resetting the heads after every track read failure. Sounds
like every single track read is failing, so what you have there is

GA-EP41-UD3L single versus double sided memory
Thu, 12 Nov 2009 16:49:22 -0000
Just bought a Gigabyte GA-EP41-UD3L motherboard which has four memory slots.

Them bad caps get everywhere
Wed, 11 Nov 2009 16:56:23 -0000
My low energy light bulb started flickering earlier today and after about
30 minutes died.
Interested to see what was inside, I broke open the base part to find the
electronic ballast, a circular PCB about 40mm dia.
Somewhat surprised I found on it a AiSHi 4.7uF 400V electrolytic cap with
a nicely bulging ...

Network question

Okay, having consistently exceeded our monthly download limit of 50GB at
zen, I have finally installed a second broadband from Bethere - we have two
tel lines. The kids will be on Bethere, and the adults will be on zen, and
we will reduce the zen bandwidth to pay for the second broadband. And the
kids can find ...

Upgrade or by again?
Tue, 10 Nov 2009 16:29:54 +0100
Is it worth upgrading a 5 y.o. PC?
Someone said buy a new one but it's a waste of an old PC. Good parts
but out of date. I have to by parts in Oz but how do I fit them.
How to decide?
