    Sd Card Troubles

    not offhand, but you could try a Linux live cd and see if the camera is visible from that, if the images are not recoverable then try hard resetting the thing, normaly you can find a little reset dimple or hole, stick a bit of wire in that and hold it down for ten seconds or so and it should...

    Parents Can Breathe A Sigh Of Relief

    the claim is that "how to know if your son is a hacker" is supposed to be satire, the realy worrying thing is I know a LOT of people I work with who would read and believe that article, and no I don`t work in a home for the mentaly disabled, it`s just some people who use the net totaly lack...

    In The Not So Distant Future

    looking at the posters name and sig, that doesn`t surprise me :P I doubt that would happen unless the authoritys turned into some Orwellian police state, with hardware that restrictive you would just get someone else release alternative systems and hardware that wasn`t restrictive and they...

    Guys, Need Help Do You Think This Is A Scam???

    scam! offer it to another bidder, anything to do with Nigeria tends to have more snags than a knitted sweater just been dragged through a barbed wire hedge overgrown with thorn trees, you`ll tend to lose both the goods and the money if you aren`t carefull, since all transactions are on a trust...

    8-12aas Battery Pack

    if the 3v in does bypass the regulator then maybe you could swap to using lithium polymer batteries, you need to get the correct rated cells and the right type of charger (or they explode), but they have insane storage capacities for their size and are rated at 3.6v per cell iirc so you should...

    8-12aas Battery Pack

    you don`t need any stepdown devices, just have your cells wired in two`s together and then in series, and since people can play with the mains adapter plugged in then it shouldn`t be a problem for you eitther, the voltage from two cells is going to be right since thats what the device holds...

    The Most Horrible Games Of All Time!

    I have never had the "pleasure" of owning a console, I HAVE to own something I can program for some perverse reason that eludes me, since I can`t program for ..er.....poo, but I have been caught out by only one game in my whole misspent gameing history, the only game I ever bought where I...

    Bush Lets U.s. Spy On Callers Without Courts!

    a while ago (when the the internet was young) people used to try and foil the authoritys with "spookfodder", a pile of potential "computer monitoring sensitive" keywords that would trigger a response from any system monitoring your mail, then they appended it to almost everthing sent via the net...

    Parents Can Breathe A Sigh Of Relief

    I tried to do a telnet clone so that we could connect a GP2X to the internet without a telephone line, but alas it didn`t work properly, due to the large amount of chinese components in the GP2X it kept failing to connect as it would Wing the Wong number :lol: (sorry! my medication is wearing...

    GP2X Hardware Blitter?

    LOL, thats one hell of an assumption, even their compliant C++ isn`t 100% compliant, must be hell when you want to do things your way cos your the boss and some dumbass organisation like ANSI keeps telling you you can`t do it that way :rolleyes: :D

    Gizmondo Homebrew Bounty

    asking people to buy a machine that forces em to watch adverts? they must be off whatever passes for their tiny minds, as for lubidogs comments, I personaly own a Tivo, I don`t see adverts any more, don`t watch live tv even 95% of the time, just skip through adverts at warp factor 16x and most...

    Warzone 2100

    well...I was just thinking there is a miniGL port already running on one cpu at a reasonable speed, and SDL is already on the system, and thats what you would need to run Warzone, it might be slow but I recall the system specs where not that high for warzone anyway (Pentium 166 ,16 Megs Ram ,30...
