I use Macrium Reflect (Paid Version) to create incremental images of my wife's Windows 10 laptop at scheduled intervals to a NAS. It seems to work well enough although can be relatively slow, and when I last had to do a bare metal restore (some time ago) it worked well. TazUk Always code as...

FYI Google backup is limited for app data - it is dependent on the developer implementing it - https://developer.android.com/google/backup/index.html. Uptake has much improved over the past year and it's one of the things I watch out for when selecting a new app. I have in fact recently worked...

I guess my experience of job hunting whilst employed has been radically different - I interviewed for my current role at night on the way home from my job at the time with interviewers who were quite prepared to stay late to meet and talk. In the past I've had to arrange days off but never at...

I'm pretty happy with VirtualBox - certainly can't beat the price. Only had the macbook (my first) for 2 weeks but running VirtualBox for a Windows XP virtual machine is pretty painless - toughest thing was setting up shared folders but that only took 30 minutes. I only needed Windows for 2...

May not be the cause for concern that I first thought, per: http://www.thecusforum.eu/showthread.php?p=3907 (different model NAS but much of the firmware is similar). I'll monitor it for now and create a new thread if problems persist.. TazUk Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining...

Thanks for responding Freestone. It's the basic onboard diagnostics on a Thecus N3200 NAS that are reporting these figures, hence my comment about Seatools vs other SMART reporting tools. I've seen no issue with streaming films from the drives - the NAS functions primarily as a Movie Jukebox...

Apologies if I'm hijacking, but this seems appropriate.. I've got 2 of the 1.5tb drives with SD17 firmware in my Thecus NAS. SMART information shows the following: Drive 1 (reads OK according to NAS) - Reallocated Sector Count 0 - Current Pending Sector Count 0 - Seek Error Rate : 18292138...

I use LogMeIn (free version) to provide remote support to family (it's easier than shouting at each other over the 'phone). Depending on what you want to achieve it may be suitable for use. TazUk Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent psychopath who...

The freeware SpywareBlaster is worth using for additional protection. It offers passive defence using an immunisation approach with definitions updated every one or two weeks. I've used SpywareBlaster, AVG's free antivirus, Windows Defender (since it became available) plus weekly scans using...

You'll need to clarify where you obtained Windows Service Pack 3 from, as it has not yet been released by Microsoft (due end 2007 or early 2008). This is why there is nothing on Microsoft's homepage about SP3. TazUk Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent...

A word of warning - judging from the reviews and comments I've seen on this product (example) you may be disappointed with it. The reviewer (in the US) purchased it from Dell's online store so you might want to try the UK equivalent before working through Belkin's list of online UK retailers...

I've upgraded several W2K boxes to XP Pro without any major issues. The last one was a week ago, and the only issue was that Automatic Updates stopped functioning - that was fixed in thread779-1393383 TazUk Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent...

Nicely done Freestone - sorted my dad's upgraded machine's update problems. Many thanks and a star. TazUk Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent psychopath who knows where you live...

I've been pretty happy with my Linksys WRT54GS v4 on a cable connection - was 512 currently 4mb. I've had it a couple of years and (when I used to game on a wirelessly connected PC) it gave me no issues with City of Heroes, Dark Ages of Camelot and the like. Currently it has multiple devices...

Old thread I know, but for anyone else who comes across it: GetProductInfo compiles and runs okay under XP (I had a play with it yesterday). I'm using a GetProductInfo call to return futher OS information once I've established that the OS is Vista / Longhorn using the dwMajorVersion returned...

Never had this sort of offer, but then my public-facing email addresses aren't linked to my real name or my skill set. That said, I'd probably do the same as you've done (ridiculously high quote) as I've got a massive overdraft to deal with at the moment. There are so many sites out there...
