/dev/hdb1 /media/windows ntfs nls=utf8,umask=0222 0 0
if anyone can see faults in this then comment!! but it seems all good apart from my ntfs drive icon keep's appearing in the top right hand corner making me move at every logon :{
ive also found a handy looking newgroup site www.binsearch.info not fully tested but give's the option to create nzb's from the posts within a particular group

just went and bought a pioneer 110 dvd burner and it's great!
it run's really quiet and has just minced a few games and another 25 gig or so of files very smoothly. cant wait to get my hard drives swapped over as my old one is just so tired. Then its 'hello' fast pc, it's still gonna take a while to configure my operating systems/partitions etc but should be a great system once done.
i've still another 40 gig of data to burn off but believe you me it's a nitemare deleting files from this 80 gig drive i have as ive resorted to beer for the stress of not having my media at my finger tips. it's harrowing deleting music and skate footage.
k back to the mission

talk to the hand beetch

cracked mi hand off the floor a few times today doon tha leam it proper knacked mister and looks like some kinda fanny hand thingy.
but was a canny day............ red hot as usual, massive hangover as usual and i did a frontside rock so thats it i can now retire from skateboarding.
on the other hand(chortle chortle) ive came to the conclusion that whoever told me about the arctic monkeys wants shooting..................its been about 4 weeks now and i just cant get the shit outta me head. i stopped listening to it fer 2 weeks and still woke every morn singing it in mi head maybe im possessed(to skate lol) the tunes are just too damn catchy i did like the full album but am going off some songs now but that 'still take you home' song is mint..... was cutting about the leam listening to it today
'wo wo wo, da da da da, d da da da, d da da da da dada'

new installs

beeen upgrading mi pc this week...
installed a hauppauge hvr -1100 dvb-t tv tuner which has went ok given the sofwarez which came packaged with it were pure trash but after much carry on i've now got cyberlink powercinema 4 on and it works a treat.
the softwarez that came packaged with it i 'DID' get 63 channels(when the wind was blowing the right way and the washing machine were'nt turned on)
but this cyberlink package seems to do it all tv/dvd/mpeg/music/pics, although it scans for available channels when clicking tv in the menu and i never seem to get more than about 71 channels including some digital radio stations (when the bath ain't running?)
need some better software again methinks ho him til then
