As Toltec says, go in to Disk Manager and delete any partitions you find on the Lacie drive - then create a new partition. If you want cross compatibility with operating systems prior to Windows 2000, then you'll have to format it to use the FAT32 filing system (which is what they are formatted with... |

Sorry but "balance of probabilities" is not whats practised, and I know that for a fact. I both agree and disagree with you on that one Ben. In my younger days I was a bit of a handful, and regularly spent time in the cells for one thing or another. In the early nineties I found myself in... |

Going back to my youth, I had a freind called Mick who rode and insured a nice bike. He asked to borrow my escort worth nothing for an afternoon. He was an honest person. I leant it to him. It came back. I never saw his licence , insurance. I knew which building he lived in, but not the front door.... |

Under 50 mph and booked for an average 93 mph during an overtake. What have you got? Rocket assistance for accelerating? :? That's what I was thinking, especially as he said he was going uphill when he did it. A "blat" would be a sustained high speed Just out of curiosity IG, what would y... |

A few years ago some of my friends thought I had found a drug dealer who wasn't cutting his drugs before he sold them, and their reasoning for this was because I bought a Pontiac Firebird that would just about do 12mpg if I drove it like Miss Daisy. In real life use it averaged around 9mpg, and on a... |

Was that the bit I heard on the radio- "conspiring to attend a terrorist training camp"? No Ben, that was in relation to 7/7 3 men were charged with conspiring (with the bombers that we did know about) to carry out that attack. They were all acquitted of that charge, but 2 of them were fo... |

Your post adds nothing whatsoever and is just foul-mouthed abuse, it's been reported. I couldn't give a toss whether you reported it or not to be honest, you've been here 5 minutes and talked shite non stop. Feel free to report this as well http://www.natadsltest2.clara.co.uk/img/tosser.gif |

I am assuming that this is to stop terrorism. You can guarantee that is the blanket that will be used to introduce it.

VPN, anonymous proxy, the means to defeat these lunatic ideas have been around for years.
Anyway, it's a government project so that means it will go £10 billion over budget and won't start for at least 5 years after it's planned start date. |

His forward observation & anticipation was a darn site better than the female police officer I followed down the A325 between Aldershot & Farnborough this afternoon. She stuck rigidly to every speed limit going (braking quite hard at one point to scrub off 30mph when she saw the 40 lollipop)... |
