Thanks Peter. Earlier on I did some experimenting and although Q98 won't install
normally, it did when I went inside the Win95 folder on the CD and ran 'setup'
directly from there. The 'update to latest version ...

Why no volume when playing video on BBC iPlayer?
Sat, 24 Oct 2009 06:35:28 -0400
I tried to play Question Time on the BBC iPlayer but there is only
the very faintest volume (maybe just crosstalk).

How can I fix this? The iPlayer plays inside my browser.
How can I check which audio codecs or which audio DLLs th ...

Win 7 - Update from Vista vs. Clean Install?
Fri, 23 Oct 2009 16:26:26 +0100
Does anyone have any experience of using the update route from Vista to
Windows 7 (and so keeping all installed programs etc.) compared to a
clean install on a reformatted hard drive?
If it works (well) then it will save me oodles of time, but
historically a clean install was always the favoured option.

DVD burner and blank discs
Fri, 23 Oct 2009 12:34:21 +0100
Hi,
I have an older LG GSA-4163B DVD burner and it can be quite fickle WRT which
make of discs it will burn to. This makes it a pain in the ass to buy blanks
as they don't make the one's I've been previously using. So I could buy a

Windows 7 arrived now 32 or 64
Thu, 22 Oct 2009 14:57:40 +0100
After trying 64 Vista and having the problems of being able to get no
drivers I wonder if there is any advantage for using 64 W7 ?
I do have a 64 CPU but is there any real benefit for a home user in 64 ?
Thanks ...
