You're feeling more thorough if -- don't want my operating system did to format the old partition download a copy of the G part of live TV or the easiest partition manager. Why the old OS partitions before you install the new OS you can resize things is a non destructive to. Yeah by the way when you install Ubuntu is basically when installing windows operating system than your non windows operating systems. When you install Ubuntu and you install blasting case -- was clear before the grub boot loader is gonna take over for win seven's butler it's an awesome boot loader.

I recently got a new work band without a cassette deck with no Decker a celery in my only option left was -- FM transmitter to pick one up but it has too much static on any frequency. Now want to waste another forty bucks he recommended -- one of with a headphone input that won't make it sound like on pump an audio. A frying bacon through the speakers that Pakistan's -- Dave in New York Albany, New York."

" Yeah transmitters. And mostly -- I am super critical about them but even at the -- in the sound worse it'll clip and station and if you travel a lot you'll find the radio frequencies that are -- me. Marketing stumped by a transmitter from with music you hate town needs really frustrating whole relief although. If you're out the middle of nowhere there's the handy things the world you'd think that but -- have to go across Nevada and like every time -- went over like one little set of 2000 but I hills into another valley. There's others that radio stations so I had actually changed crossing the lot of wanted to change my way FM transmitter frequency. Eleven times. My point for bringing that up is that. Yet I feel your pain and positioning -- making huge difference depending on where what type of antenna your car or truck or van or. Whatever it is you're driving but. You know track positioning it in different places try putting -- much it up on the dashboard as possible getting little global extension cable from the truck stop put the whole thing up there. Turning it ninety degrees clipping it to the visor it's all about keeping the critically weak signal from the on board. At that transmitter it clear shot to the end you know -- your vehicle. Can be really problematic on station lines -- cars heavily. FM transmitters that are like that sort of this little story on the rear windows so there's of the right should be. Really problematic. If you find one I'd -- install them modulated platoon between vehicles radio antenna and the radio -- want that you would signal from your price. The harder to find news these days they're basically territorial counts most and use them auxiliary input. But there isn't just about every old school aftermarket CD changer in the trunk type in the stalls doesn't get lucky. Garage sale or something you could test your boss you can install hate you with an auxiliary input -- it and if you are the boss I would just do it is. You're gonna spend a lot of time -- and you'll be a lot happier. It is just. You know your not a fan of the country well there's people look like crack them open and figure in some cases there's like little wire that they -- the wire out of the case today that trickled in little like tin foil hat antennas sort of direct the signal -- Transmitters -- offering more frequencies a couple of have like war and you're really limited that in most of you basically use something you should actually if you're right FM transmitter -- what people have great results of these none of them just happened to be neat. -- your shopping. Be very careful because in some cases yet you only have three options or three preprogrammed options or the year three picked options are like -- pointed the -- ones were hard to do we have one that let us -- and anything and granted this is the party environment so my absolute audio quality was Paramount is just a matter of getting it from point to point B and having a blast really loud well. Serving for optical beverages that. Well it's you know its network well your mileage going to vary check the forums is there's so many of these and of the model's changing so fast its just hard to keep on top of them. I just turned to avoid them like the plea. But yet -- your Obama make sure it has this sort of limited selection and puts -- York stock. You know the local.

" Mr. errors rather from your cable cards which is good case we've got a question regarding. It for cable or question I threw away. Ben writes in -- a teenager cart with cable card slots available for use in windows media center. -- then the answer the short answer yes if you could find it that it. I did protect it in the eight CI they have a product called V digital cable -- the DCT and that is actually external or internal. -- device that gives you the slot need to plug cable card and you -- looks just like the old school PCMCIA here these cards like ours where it looks parasitic. So cable cards are designed to allow you to plug it. The cable line from your local cable supplier into the back of your windows media center piece he or some other insert name of your favorite. PC b.s EV ER. Only dot dot dot totally they're just impossible to find that there difficult audio for one the only way originally to get all -- even a computer that would do that for your windows based system right now. Was to purchase one from a certified we handled it. They had to be certified by cable labs the cable car people as well as Microsoft certified builder as well so there are companies that still do that HP is one of them along with some third party manufacturers yet -- buying custom system from these people with the appropriate slot. Now that cable card itself is really just the -- decoder part that allows you to view premium content. That the pay channels like HBO showtime and the others that probably all you don't you don't give a free like over the air clear error or with a call clear QA -- on. Does the un encrypted cable channels that you can use a regular tuner card for other he's just a premium stuff that he cable cards the book if you will we -- that's probably good. What's the point that you're gonna have to get that physical cable or itself from your -- cable company. Yeah I hated it it you may be easier for you to start with what level three tech support and it will be used their sales office and a lot of cases they're generally cheap too I mean the whole reason I I personally switched over cable arts is one satellite that was impractical from last wish I had to stick with cable but I didn't want to pay the cable company. For their DVR which in my -- So I -- up yet he's stuff so I'd applying TiVo series three and that's no longer made it make other products now but it has two cable card slots in the back. Got to small cable parts of the attack came over. Set it up for me but on the PC side of things as the cable cards and yeah now yesterday the call back in it -- the card impoundment starts working in the link to your account and could you transfer the cable cards from your team goes to the media -- I would think that wouldn't work I think you have to have them at least or you would have to call and and say hey I'm moving us from one device the next I'm pretty sure it's paired. With this device and a plugin and you in a decade some peace and set things. The big name is. MD TI they have a device called the digital cable -- fancy name. And it's either external USB box or it's an internal device that goes into the PCI slot but it doesn't actually. Doesn't actually. It plugs into the -- as well but there's no connection it's literally just the holder and it internally connects via USB to motherboard. And the other big challenge though was that the other part of the game was that -- needed a motherboard a specific motherboard that was certified by the cable labs folks. And had a special bios built into it. The big thing that's happened this here is that somebody who goes with a piece of software came from but now it's float around up there but you can basically use a boot loader. -- complacent your windows system and it will point instead of to the bios to look at that special pack. It will look anywhere. Or wherever you needed to see in and basically use that with any. Motherboard you don't need specific motherboard more so as the big girl -- the other to -- getting a hold that AT IN DP's hardware. So what's you have those two things and you go through the setup routine with and and of course you'll need. Arguably a recent PC system to kind of be you running either Vista hope Vista premium. Or windows seven. And you're set and use media center. To actually do the setup and configuration. -- the two quick follow the sounds like you see your cable card -- your local cable company. They'd all should offer them they'll show it off by law. FCC that the law says that the FCC says base they now want to give you want that they have to be problems news that's good news case of the year that. You secure the part where you merely and I have to download that Apple C we -- Thursday you know and -- actually provide a link for it will probably if you -- the right motherboard and and another link that with the file still exists out there somewhere that we showed. And that you basically get all this installed in hopefully not have to buy pre configured system. But that's the whole point to avoid that if you buy pre configured it better or should I call the cable guy hadn't come out. Couple branded cards put -- man her power that's the thing to. As far as I know right now the current hard worse there's two different kinds of cable cards currently out there once supports single stream and a single channel tuner percent others called multi stream so you can do multiple boards that have -- I'm using two cable program that an older cable card device that only supports the older standard cards. The newer cards work an older devices the backward compatible stool and of the you know basically turning it into a single stream -- so if you want to record more than -- time. Premium channels you're gonna need at least two cards war with the -- and -- the multi -- the -- before quark QAM. The un encrypt it. Well that so woman it will in the digital cable Hillary digital tuner actually received the basic cable channels yes -- As far as I know I've seen one yet that doesn't support your over the air tuners for your personal computers also typically support that clear Q I am. So you should be golden there if you just your basic it. You know that you don't need a fancy cable card that can always just use a regular tuner card. If you want to be kitchen that true blood. But setup that's what you want it and yeah exactly or discovery or you know National Geographic channel or any other. I'm thing -- sort of the speed and use the and it and it. All your -- it can't be done it's not easy there's no support for doing it yourself by Microsoft could. Pull the plug on the whole thing with the windows updated any time but haven't. The green button is that the green button dot com that's the windows media senator form site super site there's a lot of good information there to Soviet I think one of the first stop that would make if you really interest in -- yourself there'd been some great threats there and I've gone through.

I recently got a new work band without a cassette deck with no Decker a celery in my only option left was -- FM transmitter to pick one up but it has too much static on any frequency. Now want to waste another forty bucks he recommended -- one of with a headphone input that won't make it sound like on pump an audio. A frying bacon through the speakers that Pakistan's -- Dave in New York Albany, New York."

" Yeah transmitters. And mostly -- I am super critical about them but even at the -- in the sound worse it'll clip and station and if you travel a lot you'll find the radio frequencies that are -- me. Marketing stumped by a transmitter from with music you hate town needs really frustrating whole relief although. If you're out the middle of nowhere there's the handy things the world you'd think that but -- have to go across Nevada and like every time -- went over like one little set of 2000 but I hills into another valley. There's others that radio stations so I had actually changed crossing the lot of wanted to change my way FM transmitter frequency. Eleven times. My point for bringing that up is that. Yet I feel your pain and positioning -- making huge difference depending on where what type of antenna your car or truck or van or. Whatever it is you're driving but. You know track positioning it in different places try putting -- much it up on the dashboard as possible getting little global extension cable from the truck stop put the whole thing up there. Turning it ninety degrees clipping it to the visor it's all about keeping the critically weak signal from the on board. At that transmitter it clear shot to the end you know -- your vehicle. Can be really problematic on station lines -- cars heavily. FM transmitters that are like that sort of this little story on the rear windows so there's of the right should be. Really problematic. If you find one I'd -- install them modulated platoon between vehicles radio antenna and the radio -- want that you would signal from your price. The harder to find news these days they're basically territorial counts most and use them auxiliary input. But there isn't just about every old school aftermarket CD changer in the trunk type in the stalls doesn't get lucky. Garage sale or something you could test your boss you can install hate you with an auxiliary input -- it and if you are the boss I would just do it is. You're gonna spend a lot of time -- and you'll be a lot happier. It is just. You know your not a fan of the country well there's people look like crack them open and figure in some cases there's like little wire that they -- the wire out of the case today that trickled in little like tin foil hat antennas sort of direct the signal -- Transmitters -- offering more frequencies a couple of have like war and you're really limited that in most of you basically use something you should actually if you're right FM transmitter -- what people have great results of these none of them just happened to be neat. -- your shopping. Be very careful because in some cases yet you only have three options or three preprogrammed options or the year three picked options are like -- pointed the -- ones were hard to do we have one that let us -- and anything and granted this is the party environment so my absolute audio quality was Paramount is just a matter of getting it from point to point B and having a blast really loud well.

" Mr. errors rather from your cable cards which is good case we've got a question regarding. It for cable or question I threw away. Ben writes in -- a teenager cart with cable card slots available for use in windows media center. -- then the answer the short answer yes if you could find it that it. I did protect it in the eight CI they have a product called V digital cable -- the DCT and that is actually external or internal. -- device that gives you the slot need to plug cable card and you -- looks just like the old school PCMCIA here these cards like ours where it looks parasitic. So cable cards are designed to allow you to plug it. The cable line from your local cable supplier into the back of your windows media center piece he or some other insert name of your favorite. PC b.s EV ER. Only dot dot dot totally they're just impossible to find that there difficult audio for one the only way originally to get all -- even a computer that would do that for your windows based system right now. Was to purchase one from a certified we handled it. They had to be certified by cable labs the cable car people as well as Microsoft certified builder as well so there are companies that still do that HP is one of them along with some third party manufacturers yet -- buying custom system from these people with the appropriate slot. Now that cable card itself is really just the -- decoder part that allows you to view premium content. That the pay channels like HBO showtime and the others that probably all you don't you don't give a free like over the air clear error or with a call clear QA -- on. Does the un encrypted cable channels that you can use a regular tuner card for other he's just a premium stuff that he cable cards the book if you will we -- that's probably good. What's the point that you're gonna have to get that physical cable or itself from your -- cable company. Yeah I hated it it you may be easier for you to start with what level three tech support and it will be used their sales office and a lot of cases they're generally cheap too I mean the whole reason I I personally switched over cable arts is one satellite that was impractical from last wish I had to stick with cable but I didn't want to pay the cable company. For their DVR which in my -- So I -- up yet he's stuff so I'd applying TiVo series three and that's no longer made it make other products now but it has two cable card slots in the back. Got to small cable parts of the attack came over. Set it up for me but on the PC side of things as the cable cards and yeah now yesterday the call back in it -- the card impoundment starts working in the link to your account and could you transfer the cable cards from your team goes to the media -- I would think that wouldn't work I think you have to have them at least or you would have to call and and say hey I'm moving us from one device the next I'm pretty sure it's paired. With this device and a plugin and you in a decade some peace and set things. The big name is. MD TI they have a device called the digital cable -- fancy name. And it's either external USB box or it's an internal device that goes into the PCI slot but it doesn't actually. Doesn't actually. It plugs into the -- as well but there's no connection it's literally just the holder and it internally connects via USB to motherboard. And the other big challenge though was that the other part of the game was that -- needed a motherboard a specific motherboard that was certified by the cable labs folks. And had a special bios built into it. The big thing that's happened this here is that somebody who goes with a piece of software came from but now it's float around up there but you can basically use a boot loader. -- complacent your windows system and it will point instead of to the bios to look at that special pack. It will look anywhere. Or wherever you needed to see in and basically use that with any. Motherboard you don't need specific motherboard more so as the big girl -- the other to -- getting a hold that AT IN DP's hardware. So what's you have those two things and you go through the setup routine with and and of course you'll need. Arguably a recent PC system to kind of be you running either Vista hope Vista premium. Or windows seven. And you're set and use media center. To actually do the setup and configuration. -- the two quick follow the sounds like you see your cable card -- your local cable company. They'd all should offer them they'll show it off by law. FCC that the law says that the FCC says base they now want to give you want that they have to be problems news that's good news case of the year that. You secure the part where you merely and I have to download that Apple C we -- Thursday you know and -- actually provide a link for it will probably if you -- the right motherboard and and another link that with the file still exists out there somewhere that we showed. And that you basically get all this installed in hopefully not have to buy pre configured system. But that's the whole point to avoid that if you buy pre configured it better or should I call the cable guy hadn't come out. Couple branded cards put -- man her power that's the thing to. As far as I know right now the current hard worse there's two different kinds of cable cards currently out there once supports single stream and a single channel tuner percent others called multi stream so you can do multiple boards that have -- I'm using two cable program that an older cable card device that only supports the older standard cards. The newer cards work an older devices the backward compatible stool and of the you know basically turning it into a single stream -- so if you want to record more than -- time. Premium channels you're gonna need at least two cards war with the -- and -- the multi -- the -- before quark QAM. The un encrypt it. Well that so woman it will in the digital cable Hillary digital tuner actually received the basic cable channels yes -- As far as I know I've seen one yet that doesn't support your over the air tuners for your personal computers also typically support that clear Q I am. So you should be golden there if you just your basic it. You know that you don't need a fancy cable card that can always just use a regular tuner card. If you want to be kitchen that true blood. But setup that's what you want it and yeah exactly or discovery or you know National Geographic channel or any other. I'm thing -- sort of the speed and use the and it and it. All your -- it can't be done it's not easy there's no support for doing it yourself by Microsoft could. Pull the plug on the whole thing with the windows updated any time but haven't. The green button is that the green button dot com that's the windows media senator form site super site there's a lot of good information there to Soviet I think one of the first stop that would make if you really interest in -- yourself there'd been some great threats there and I've gone through.
