Wall of Mouths

ok reading all of that, what’s standing there, just makes me cry :(
and i cannot start doing experiments with my pc now…my diploma is on it!
and of course that made troubles to today.
cause when i tried to copy my work on my zip-disk, it said, that this is impossible, cause my work would be writing protected…but i never put a writing protection on…and if you look under properties, there’s also no sign for it that there’s a writing protection.
so aaaaaaaaaaaaah!
i cannot save my work anywhere else at the moment…and cannot play to much with the pc, cause i don’t want to loose the stuff.

:( :( :(
any better idea?

Take it to your local IT/IS department and flutter your eyelashes a bit. Geeks are glad to help pretty girls with computer related problems.
Trust me on that.

so you want to say, i have to ask myself for permission to copy my own work?
ok! :p

whatever you do don’t take it to your equivalent of PC World (computer chains) they are shite, plus they check your computer for file sharing programs. Always take it to an independant seller, they know what the hell they’re on about and it’ll be much cheaper!

The IT department is a good idea too, probably be free! Ahhh exploiting people, isn’t it handy!?

The Devolo company took over the microlink modems from the bankrupt ELSA AG.

Drivers for those modems can also be found on ZDNet.

By the way, who still uses zip drives. Get yourself a mobile hard drive (or at least a USB memory stick), or maybe a completely new pc system. :)

Good luck and save your money (if possible) for your camera. We want excellent T? pics from the next tour. :)

Oh I feel your pain.

I think computers do it on purpose. They always break when you most need them to.

Sorry can’t help, my usual solution for bad PC is to kick it. Sort of explains why it breaks in the first place

Has anyone else been suffering from ‘bargains.exe’? God knows how the little shit got on my computer but it causes ‘customised’ pop-ups for every site you visit (even worse, it’s google-proof), and really slows it down. Be warned!

get ad-aware. Its a good program that should get rid of that and any other things that have invested you hard drive

Cheers for links. I uninstalled the program, I’m just concerned about how it made it’s way on to my computer in the first place. Will def. check out links and upgrade security!

i got in the meanwhile some answers from one guy from elsa and one from devolo…and both say, that they are not responsible for my problem.
the one from elsa technology seems to have nothing to do with the old elsa anymore…and the one from devolo says that they don’t give support for elsa products. :mad:

now my last chance is a computer-nerd who will come by tomorrow and see what else he can still trash on my pc…i somehow got the feeling that i have to kill my little piggy bank and get me new stuff :(…

yeah well that means no x-mas presents for anyone this year :(

just as information my modem is back working again :D

aaaahhh…it’s always good to have computer nerds as friends :p

i have no idea :)

well it wasn’t a virus. but there was s.th on my computer which was blocking my modem. and all i know is, that’s now not on my pc anymore. i hope it burns in hell now! :o

The prompt to connect to the internet should appear if you have ‘always dial my default connection’ set under tools - internet options - connections…

as for the links - i aint a clue…

of course this might not be the solution at all…

I got the message that I had to install this Service Pack too, but after a while I got an error message saying that my XP version is illegal :D

Stupid crap… well it’s correct, but anyway… how important is that Service Pack? Is it absolutely necessary that I try to install this fucking Microsoft rubbish ?
