Everytime I reinstall Windows, I have to go through a routine of customizing WLM settings…   If they can remember the Display Picture and the Personal Status Messages these checkbox settings can’t be that hard.

WMP up to version 12 now, still does not support displaying multi-disc albums properly. In this screenshot you will see how tracks from disc 1 and disc 2 are mixed up together.

The MUSIC is 300 GB (279 GiB) and it is losing its free space rapidly. 64.9 GiB left. When MUSIC reaches 15% free space, I will buy another 1000 GB HDD and label it Music0001. There are two DVDs already with Music0001 and Music0002. I will move them to Archives. The current Music album will only have Music Video DVDs. Current MUSIC drive will act as DUMP. The current DUMP will become Archive0148.

Think twice before you are going to buy a casing like this:

Content so far, as catalogued using CD Bank Cataloguer. Application name is quite a misnomer. It can catalog CDs, DVDs, and also HDDs. Continuing from the old naming schemeTV0097 is the first HDD being burnt.

Got my USB Disk Dock with eSATA today for $49. I like to call it a HDD Burner as I will be using HDDs similar to DVDRs.   Now you can hook up a dirt-cheap SATA disk drive to your PC or Mac by simply plugging it into this USB docking station that works just like an iPod dock. Until now, if you wanted to add a bare hard drive to your computer, you either had to put it in some sort of enclosure, or open up your PC and install it next to the other drives in there. The USB Disk Dock couldn’t be simpler, accommodating 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch SATA disks that you simply plug into the unit. Now features eSATA connectivity for super fast data transfer. The package includes 1 x eSATA cable and 1 x USB2.0 cable.

First step is to enable this in Gmail > Settings > Labs Once you enable that in, the next time you load Settings, you are going to see: Choose yyyy-mm—dd and HH:ss and you are set.

Disappointingly my initial assumption bites the dust. TV Tuner may be not be the faulty device after all. This happened in Windows Vista 32-bit after watching a local video file. My options: Remove TV Tuner completely from the Casing and run for a few days Run Windows 7 build 7022 for a few days to see if same thing happens

Why is this not possible? I have not seen this possible in Windows XP, Vista or even in 7. I have to shut down in order to install Windows Updates. Choosing Restart makes the “install updates” option disappear. What gives?

Contrary to my initial belief, MPEG Audio does not need to be passed through SPDIF to the Amplifier. DTS and AC3 if enough. I had to untick MPEG Audio in order to get a music video sound working.

Save the following to a .reg file and import to Registry. Install MsgPlus afterwards. Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwarePatchouMessenger Plus! LiveDefaultSettingsPreferences] "LogsDateDirFormat"="yyyyMM" "ChatLogTimeStampFormat"="HH:mm:ss" Every new account loaded in WLM will automatically inherit these settings in MsgPlus. ChatLogTimeStampFormat is not required for this change but I included that anyway to enforce ISO-8601 usage.
