Right well, I haven't offered my manly IT techie skills yet, as my brain is too frazzled with all this packing i'm doing for my inevitable mid-September move back to the UK. But I'm here as moral support for now.

I've also taken the liberty of checking out that Jewel pic, and.... aaaargh! Even with the photo slightly blurry and out-of-focus, why does she still have to be so delicious, scantily-clad and teasing me with white hotpants! Grrr. I declare a fatwa on your feminine wiles!

Actually after a second, and third, and fourth look, it seems that the pic's fine... it's my eyes that are all out of focus. Mmmm mmmm.

Frankly, moral support is a damned sight more useful than Tech Support!

And as for that young Jewel...maybe if you boys act nice she'll bring her hotpants to Serenity 2!

What make is your printer?

It scans and the pictures appear on the computer right?

As for the laptop there'll either be a setting in the BIOS or in windows...
What make/model is it (cause they're all different).

Anyway last time I saw peter jackson it was some interview or other and he'd lost loads of weight and was looking quite fit (thats fit as in healthy before anyone says anything).
Couldn't access the link cause my internet is deciding to see how far it can push me...
Grrr...

mmmm she wears short shorts...

Printer's a Lexmark. And yep, image appears on the computer although it does have a little viewfinder thingy on the printer (see how I'm learning technical terms?!)

Laptop's an HP Pavillion DV1000.

Despite disliking the new poster so much I have graciously created a wallpaper for all those foolish folks (and Jaina) who like it. Consider it my selfless gift to the BC world!

Putting aside Peter Jackson's health, those little Superman Returns video clips are pretty cool (not that they're giving much away of course). If only Joss had done a video journal for Serenity!

(Snigger - Sean thinks PJ is fit! Snigger...)

*mummble mummble mummble*
Imature gorram...
So gonna regret that PJ comment...
*mummble mummble mummble*

And thingy is a recognised tech term, I use it myself, along with whatcha macallit and:
"if you don't start working! you see that window! we're on the fifth floor!"

As for the printer, (if you havent already)restarting both the computer and the printer, then if it still doesn't work uninstall the printer drivers and install the latest versions.

If it still doesn't work then its definatly a printer problem, tho I think thats probably the case anyway. If you wish to hear the technical term it sounds like your printer may very well be .
It must be still under warranty if tech support is saying its a computer problem, so your probably alright.

The laptop probably has an option somewhere in the control panel to set it to automatically connect (if it can do that, sometimes they won't so they can conserve battery).
Its hard to tell where the option will be without the computer in front of me but:
In the task bar at the right hand side there should be an icon that is a monitor with three semi-circular lines coming off of it. Double click that and then click "view wireless networks".

On that window click change advanced setting, then hit configure on the next window.

Make sure its one the advanced tab and try setting both ringed options to Enable.

Well, you see, Doc, its like this...
I keep having these alternating recurring dreams, first I'm a teepee, then I'm a wigwam, then I'm a teepee, then I'm a wigwam and so on...



(because nobody else did it)

You're obviously too tense! (Two tents! Geddit? Eh? Eh? Do what, turn it up!!!!)

Okay, I may need a little psychiatric treatment myself. Let me write my problems down...
