We used Win2K at the college...but had auto update enabled by the time I left, so I guess I tend to fergit about such things. That and most folks barely bothered with turning the computer on and off, let alone attaching any scary external USB devices.
Well...hopefully they just decided to wait until later in the week to make a decision, no? Here's hoping tomorrow's the day!
As for me...well, still no luck. I gotta start making decisions, and I don't like my options.
I don't want to even think what the costume for ~that~ superhero must look like....
Well, my reasoning is that I looked up our house which was built in Oct. 2001, and the neighborhood wasn't exactly all there... lots of mud and maybe a dozen houses built out of 1100 that are now in our neighborhood.
Oh dear...what a mental picture!
Didja hafta go and do that?
Ah well, that would make sense then.
Hard to tell here since my neighborhood was built in the 80s.
You may need to flash the BIOS. It'll hang on older VIA chipsets.
hehehehe...
He's making a film as we speak...
That was a good episode. Glad they gave some depth to Mr. Eku.
G'nite.
Agreed.
G'nite LSA and osage!
I might try messing about with the boot order in the bios. Maybe it's trying to look for a bootable system but is failing to complete the check somehow.
Well, I'm reminded of an old Howard Stern act...
Oh lordy. *rolls eyes*
I'm waiting to see how Mr. Eko and Mr. Locke get along together.
Silly wabbit didn't realize you can't boot to a printer!
We'll have to wait until Jen and Rosie see it to speak any more on the subject, but it was well worth the wait. :-D
Hah! Maybe in the new HP driver they'll fix that. :-)
Yeah, it might be the boot sequence. I had the thought that it may be trying to find the drive before the USB is enabled or something along those lines.
I'll set some time aside this weekend to check out the BIOS. Too tired to get started on it now. :~D
Work was better today, I take it?
Sounds like Rose has it pretty well nailed. Maybe too is that it's a USB 2 drive... and maybe your port is not? OR the port is but the BIOS isn't, BIOS gets cornfused. sumpthinurotherwise.
Dunno.
