I honestly thought Saints Row 4 was a joke. Played and loved 2, haven't played 3, now you're the president fighting back aliens.
Sorry, my suspension of disbelief just cannot handle this one.
Played about 7 more hours of it today. The superpowers arn't all that bad now that I've messed around with them a bit. My favorite is the freeze one, just leaping from rooftop to rooftop, seeing an enemy aircraft coming at you and shooting it in mid-air with a bolt of forst as it crashes and explodes into a building, feels good man. Getting into the story, it all feels, really nice. Knowing that the superpowers are only in the simulation portion of the game, and not the real world. The ship being a crib where all your homies hang out and you can talk/ "romance" with them was a nice little addition. Curious on how the game will end though, considering that twist during "The Real World" mission, haha. Gotta give my other new game a try after I finish this one. That new XCOM game.
So far I'm liking using the stomp ability from the air, but the powers are in general a fair amount of fun. Overall the game is great so far, with the exception of a few of the activities being annoying, but that was true of the previous games as well.
It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shakes, the shakes become a warning.
I only got to play about 2 hours yesterday but the game surprised me A LOT.
I about damn near lost lost it playing the first scene when you get thrown into the simulation.
Don't click if you want to avoid spoilers...

I'm ignoring comments to avoid spoilers but lol I just got the game. Made Step Dad go to Kmart where some rude lady didn't recognize they had Saints Row 4 and some gay guy checked him out and hit on him making jokes about how he had to rush to catch the train home.
I'm with you guys@@@part of it is downloading.

Australia doesn't get it until the 12th of September.
I love our government!
We stopped searching for monsters under our beds when we realized that they were inside us.
Tell me something, my friend. You ever dance with the devil in the pale moonlight?
Holy shit. Hard mode is a little challenging lol. I only beat the first part and a little more so far...I spent a ton of time looking for Clusters lol.
I can see why people would complain. These superpowers really do make cars and planes useless. On one hand, it's not the typical Saints Row/GTA style gameplay I like. On the other hand, I guess Saints Row had to go in a different direction with the brand than the typical gang shooter.
The typical Saints Row humor is there, but not as much as in 3. Maybe I need to play more.
I'm not completely sold on the superpowers; I really don't like how cars and other vehicles become almost entirely irrelevant less than two hours in.
On the other hand, the superpowers add a lot of variety to gameplay. Climbing towers is a lot like playing a Mario game, and so is zipping around the city sucking up data clusters. I'm about 15% in, and there's a Starfox-esque segment just before the end of the first act. Blast powers are fun, but I'd rather have grenades. The various weapons are fun, though pistols reign supreme over all else just like in SR3; if pistols kill everything in one hit to the face with just one damage upgrade, why do you need anything else except a rocket launcher for big groups of enemies? And if you can freeze people in place to guarantee a headshot...
Having to run around and grab data clusters quickly becomes monotonous. I'd much rather data clusters be rewards for doing side missions or activities rather than just aimlessly wandering around.
Radio on foot would be a fantastic addition to the game if the radio stations weren't complete garbage this time around. They removed a few of the stations from SR3 and the remaining ones are filled with a bunch of dross; there're maybe a few decent songs between all of the stations combined, which makes for a small mix tape. That said, the addition of literature to the classical station is pretty awesome, though it's hard to pay attention to it while you're busy blowing shit up. Maybe someone will come up with a way of swapping SR4 radio stations with the SR3 ones. I've been playing without radio at all so far.
I love how the "romance" options in on the ship openly mock Mass Effect. One of the most genuine laughs I've had in the past month.
I don't even like dubstep and I think the dubstep gun is amazing, makes everything dance, and the beats are pretty awesome. (3 different beats, 1 for each skin you choose.) Liking the "pop" one the best, haha. Also little easter egg hint. Go to "Let's Pretend" Shoot the employees only door until it opens. Some neat little stuff in there.
Just got a mail from the website i preordered it from that the order has been completed meaning it will either arrive in the mail today which is one day early or tommorow at the actual release in Europe.

Lamentably I must report that all is not well in Saints land. I seem to have a 100% reproducible crash when exiting a specific mission "king of stillwater". Going to try reinstalling later today to see if it's a corrupted file.

I can't explain to you guys how much I want to break my controller every time I try to grab a human shield and jump into a car.

Couple pro-tips: (So to speak)
I've been finding myself running the races for quick cache. (Money) If you're just starting up, run the easy course that you get lead to as part of one of the early side quests a couple of times to buy up all your skills. Once you get comfortable with running and jumping, try the harder ones, they'll net you 10k if you can get a gold, and are repeatable (Which makes getting all the upgrades relatively simple), This is probably the fastest and easiest way to get money and not get hounded by legions of aliens trying to kill you.
The towers scattered around town are an excellent place to go to grab data clusters, there are usually ~8-12(or more) on the way up, and always 6-8 at the very top (as well as a rather large sum of XP) Additionally, i've found 'baggage-free' alien aircraft near the top of a couple of these towers on the east-southest part of town. which is definitely good to know (and, trivializes climbing future towers if you're just looking for quick XP.)
I haven't been able to successfully garage one of the aircraft yet. I'm guessing that is by design.
Over all, the game is fun as hell (despite me not being terribly far in the game yet) controls are decent on PC, and I haven't hit any snags or CTD's in my ~5 hours playing (Knock-on-wood)

When do you get an epidural?
I think I had to wait until I was 4cm with DD... so it wouldn't slow labor. I was induced with her, but pretty sure that was the hospital rule either way. And it kicked in almost immediately. :)
DD - 11 years
Step twin-DDs - 5 years
Russell James "RJ" 7/16/13.
I was at 7 cm with my ODD, had to wait 10 minutes total from calling them to no pain.
I was at a 6 with my DS. Had to wait 45 minutes for them to show up, 3 tries and an hour later I had no pain. 30 minutes after that they had to take it out because my blood pressure dropped through the floor, he was born 30 minutes later and I felt it all. I was an 8 when they got there and 10 when they finally got it placed.
With my youngest,I was a 6 when we called them. Had to wait 10 minutes or so for them to get there, and we talked we 5-10 minutes about my last epidural and how much pain meds they would give me this time(cut the doses in half for everything). 10 minutes after that I was pain free. Woke up 2 hours later and LO was crowning.
Here they give you meds before they start the epidural so really I was mostly pain free as they put it in, with the exception of my ds. That guy was just crappy.
I know it didnt mine. I was in labor for 15-16 hrs. Would have been less but they had to stop the pitocin (sp?) a couple of times because babys heart rate would drop..come to find out w u/s it was the lil guy playing w the cord lol
~ Tyler Dean 12/5/05 ~ Gabriel Alexander 7/3/13 ~
~Juliet Louise 7/28/15~
I waited until I was 6 cm or so and it actually sped up my labor.
Jax born on 12/7/2010 Baby "Bitsy" due 7/22/2013
One boy and one girl ~ This factory is shutting down!
I was induced due to high blood pressure and wasn't dilated at all when they started the process at 2-3pm. I had period type cramps all evening/night and my water broke around 6 am the next day. It wasn't long after I was having alot of back to back contractions which were somewhat painful but very manageable but my blood pressure would go sky high when I had contractions so they gave me an epidural at that point. I was maybe 2 cm...I felt like a huge wuss! Things went super fast after that and DD was born at 11:31am!
Me (30) + DH (31) =
I waited til 7 and I couldn't take it any more. I was in transition and thirty minutes after the epidural my DD was here.
Married to KC October 9 09, DD born July 7 2010 DS due July 18 2013
Married my best friend 8-15-09
Connor 2-19-11
Ella 6-27-13
Parker 3-2-16
By 7:05am I couldn't feel any pain :)
I remember it kicking in quickly...like 8 minutes maybe. I waited until I was dilated to 4. But, there is no set time that you should do it. Our labor instructor had told us to just go with the flow, and when you feel like the pain is getting intolerable, ask for the epi., and if you never need it, great. If you do, that is fine too! I personally, wouldn't ask for it right away unless you are really in labor when you arrive, because once you have it, you can't get up and move around at all. I think the only time it would be too late is if you are like nearly fully dilated, but if you made it that far, you don't have much to go anyways! : )

The Golden Compass
We took the boys to see this last night. It was good, but...not quite what I was expecting. I haven't read the books so I don't know how closely the movie followed the books. I would definitely had waited until DVD release and not felt bad about it though. It's not a *must see* for a theater. It didn't really hold the boys interest until the last 45 minutes or so (mine either to be honest). There was only 10 cars in the theater parking lot so we almost snuck off to see Enchanted and left hubby to watch this one, lol (We went to the 4 pm matinee so that's why it was so empty)
If this movie had anti-religion tones, it flew over my head so I seriously doubt my kiddos got it either, lol I don't see what the fuss was about. It was an okay fantasy movie...that's it.
*In all fairness, I was sleepy and I'm feeling not so great again so that could have influenced how I felt about this movie. :)

Holborn bars and pubs
Find the best bars and pubs in Holborn
If you fancy a pint after work or simply want a drink in central London, Holborn is a superb place to go. Try the Princess Louise to get a sense of what it was like to drink in Victorian times. If you'd rather be surrounded by pearls when you have a drink, head to Pearl Bar. Read on to find even more great places to have a drink.
Think we've missed a great drinking spot in Holborn? Let us know in the comment box below.
All Star Lanes
Styling itself on stateside 'boutique' bowling alleys, this retro-themed venue is the more upmarket of Bloomsbury's two bowling dens (see also Bloomsbury Bowling Lanes).Read more
Bar Polski
This diminutive Polish hideaway stocks some 50 different vodkas, categorised according to descriptions such as 'clean and clear', 'dry and interesting' and 'nice and sweet'.Read more
Princess Louise
With half-a-dozen ornately carved, sumptuously tiled bar areas under one high, stucco ceiling, the Princess Louise is a classic example of the Victorian public house.Read more
Cittie of Yorke
The copper sign swinging over pedestrians on High Holborn speaks of 'beer brewed at Yorkshire's oldest brewery'. So far, so faux, but the interior is authentically dingy, wobbly and warren-like.Read more

Read an Excerpt
Jen lifted the almost weightless child onto her hip and turned towards the car approaching them, hoping the driver would stop before he reached the tents so the cloud of gritty sand the vehicle was kicking up would settle outside rather than inside her makeshift hospital.
He did stop. The battered four-wheel-drive pulled up some twenty metres from where she stood, but a perverse drift of wind lifted the trailing red cloud and carried it in her direction, so she had to step backwards in order not to be engulfed in its dust. She put her hand over the little girl's nose and mouth, and scowled at the man stepping out from behind the wheel.
Unexpected visitors usually meant trouble. Most of the small states in this area had moved quickly into the twentieth century and then the twenty-first, with modern cities, wonderful facilities and the best of medical care, but in Zaheer, the ruling sheikh did not agree with modern ways and though he himself was rarely seen, his minions made the presence of even essential aid services uncomfortable.
The man who disembarked wore rather tattered jeans and a T-shirt, not the flowing robes of the usual official sent to ask what they were doing and to be shown around, suspicion of the organisation's aims bristling in the air.
This man was very different, though why Jen had that impression she couldn't say.
Was he a traveller lost in the desert, or something else?
Some instinct she'd never felt before warned her to be wary but she dismissed this vague unease with a sharp, unspoken Nonsense! Beneath the dust on the vehicle there appeared to be some kind of logo, so maybe he was an official, or an aid worker from anotherorganisation.
She wanted to ignore him, to turn away, tired of the battles she fought with red tape, but with more refugees arriving at the camp every day she needed all the help she could get, and he might just be helpful to her.
She stood her ground.
But she didn't smile.
Which was probably just as well, she realised as the man stepped out of his dust cloud and she caught her first good look at the tall, well-built figure, the tanned skin, the dark, dark hair andsurely not green eyes?
She looked again as he came closerthey were green, pale, translucent almost, and so compelling she knew she was staring.
But all in all he was a man women would stare at automatically, and smile at as wellprobably to cover the fluttering in the region of their hearts.
Not that she did heart flutters over mennot since David
'Dr Stapleton?'
The visitor's voice was deep, but with a huskiness that suggested he might have a cold or sore throat, or that he might have cultivated ita bedroom voice, practised for seduction
Seduction? Where had that thought sprung from?
'Yes!' she managed, nodding to reinforce the spoken confirmation, knowing the fleeting thought of danger was nonsensical.
'I'm Kam Rahman,' the stranger said, stepping closer and offering his hand. 'Head office of Aid for All heard you were in troubletrying to look after the medical needs of the people in the camp as well as run the TB programmeand sent me along to look into setting up a medical clinic here and to investigate the needs of the refugees.'
'You're a doctor?' Jen asked, taking in the threadbare jeans and the T-shirt that looked older than she was, once again trying not to be distracted by the blatant maleness of the body inside them.
'Trained in London,' he said, bowing deeply. 'But my father was an official of sorts in this country so I grew up here and speak the language, which is why Aid for All thought I'd be more useful here than in South America, where my language skills would be useless. Although, given the way the world works, it's a wonder I didn't end up there.'
He smiled, perhaps in the hope she'd enjoyed his little joke, but the smile made the sense of danger stronger and Jen found herself taking a backward step and shifting Rosana so the child was between her and the stranger.
Not that the man noticed her movement, or registered that she hadn't taken his proffered hand. He was too busy looking around, his keen eyes scanning the tent city that spread outward from the end of the road.
'You're more than welcome,' Jen told him, although inside she didn't feel at all welcoming. Inside she felt disturbed, which, she supposed, wasn't all that unbelievable because the man, with his erect carriage, his strong body, high cheekbones, the slightly hooded but miss-nothing green eyes, oozed sex appeal.
Startled by the directions of her thoughts, she realised it had been a long time since she'd noticed a man as a man, let alone considered whether he was sexy or not.
But there was something else about him that diverted her from personal reactions, something in his bearing
Now, why would she think that?
'So, are you going to show me around?'
The same authority in his voice, and it was authorityof that she had no doubt.
He'd thrust his hands into his jeans pockets, making the fabric tight around his butt as he turned, the better to see the extent of the camp, and Jen was distracted again.
Aware she should be thinking about the reason the man was here, not whether or not he had a good backside, Jen dragged her mind back into order.
'You're really an Aid for All workerreally a doctor?'
He turned back to her and smiled, which didn't help the disturbance in her body, then he crossed to the dirty vehicle and rubbed his hand across the passenger door to clear the dust from the logo.
'See, same as yours.' He nodded towards the equally dusty vehicle she and her team used. 'I don't have my framed medical graduation certificate with mehard to hang things on the walls of tentsbut I do have some ID.'
He plunged his hand into his pocket and pulled out a plastic-covered tag similar to the one Jen wore around her neck.
'There, we match,' he said, slipping the cord over his head.
Kam with a K, she noticed, but the ID looked genuine.
So why did she still feel wary about this man?
Because he was so handsome?
Well, if that was the case, she'd better get over it. The people in the camp needed all the help they could get.
'Come on, I'll show you around,' she said, as Rosana wriggled in her arms.
Jen looked down at the little mite, dark eyes huge in her thin face, stick legs bent with rickets, stomach distended from starvation. 'There isn't much to see, well, not in the medical tent. It's very basic. If you're setting up a general medicine clinic, maybe we can get another tent for it so we're not tripping over each other.'
She looked hopefully at the newcomer.
'I don't suppose you brought a tent?'
He was frowning at herfrowning angrilyas he shook his head, although she couldn't think why he should be angry.
Until he spoke.
'Weren't tents supplied by the government? Tents for the refugees as well as tents for the people helping them? Didn't I hear that somewhere?'
Jen shrugged.
'I don't know, although I have heard that the old sheikh has been ill for a very long time so maybe the country isn't running as well as it should be. And Aid for All certainly had a battle getting permission to test for and treat TB in the camp, so once we received the permission we weren't going to push our luck by asking for more. The tent we use was housing a family when we arrived, and they moved out so we could have it.'
Kamid Rahman al'Kawali, heir to the sheikhdom but travelling incognito through his country, shook his head as he looked around at the tent village. Things were far worse than he and his twin brother Arun had imagined. And they had to take at least part of the responsibility, for they'd pretended not to notice what was happening in Zaheer, throwing themselves into their hospital duties, telling themselves their medical work was more important than disputes between government officials, changing what they could change at the hospital where they worked, but slowly and cautiously. They'd been constantly frustrated in their endeavours because, even ill, their father had been strong enough to refuse to hand over any authority to his sons.
So they'd worked, and learnt, attending conferences and courses all over the world, finding good excuses to not visit their father until the last possible moment when they'd come out of duty to their mother, not out of concern for an irascible old man who had made their childhoods a misery, and who had refused to move with his country into the twenty-first century.
He had despised the city that had grown where the old capital had been, the new city built by foreign oil barons made richer by the oil they pumped from beneath the desert sands, and by foreign hotel chains who had built luxury housing for the oil barons.
He had objected to the idea of his country becoming a democracy, although when he realised it was inevitable he had made sure his brothers and their sons had stood as candidates and been elected to look after the interests of the family. Then he'd hidden himself away in the fastness of his winter palace, the hereditary, but not ruling, ruler, allowing those in the far-off city to do as they wished. That aim seemed to be to make the city more prosperous, not to mention glamorous enough to be attractive to foreigners, and to ignore the fate of the rest of the country.
Which was why a foreign aid organisation was now testing for TB in a tent in this refugee camp near the border of the neighbouring country, while in the city, in nearly new hospitals, first-class surgeons recruited from around the world were performing face lifts and tummy tucks not only on women but on men who had become soft and flabby from indulging in their wealth.
Foreign aid! How could this have happened when the whole basis for the tribal life of his people was looking after their own? And the people in this refugee camp, although they may have come in from over the border, were still their own, descendants of the same tribes that had roamed the desert for centuries.
Kam sighed and looked at the woman in front of him. The smooth skin of her face, framed by a dark scarf, was lightly tanned and sprinkled with freckles that had a look of casually scattered gold dust to them, while her eyes were a darker gold, brown, he supposed they'd be called, but so flecked with golden lights the brown was hardly noticeable. Pink, shapely but unpainted lips, slightly chappedhad no one told her the dry desert air could suck all moisture out of you in a few hours?were pursed by worry or concern
And why was he suddenly so observant?
With so much to learn and so much to do to right the wrongs of the past, this was no time to be noticing a pretty woman
'I can get tents,' he said.
'Just like that? You can get tents?' Jen demanded. 'I've been sending messages to the city for months now, saying we need more helpOh!'
She lifted her hand and held it to her mouthto stop herself putting her foot further into it?
'You are more help,' she muttered, then smiled tentatively at him. 'I'm sorry I haven't been more welcoming. But tents?'
Kam returned the smile.
'Influence in the cityI grew up here, remember.'
He was fascinated by the freckles but knew he shouldn't stare, so he let his gaze rove casually over her, then smiled once more to cover the fact that his attention had been so easily diverted.
'Tents are easy.'
Jen didn't miss his casual scan of her body, but she refused to blush, although she was only too aware of what a sight she must present, her Western garb of jeans and a long-sleeved shirt covered by a long, all-enveloping grey tunic, red desert sand coating it and probably her face as well, and turning her blonde plait, beneath her headscarf, a dried-out, gingery colour.
But his inspection of her appareland his apparent dismissal of it, although she had attempted to adapt her clothing to meet the customs of the landhad annoyed her sufficiently to go on the attack. 'Good, and if you've that much influence, I'll make a list of other things we need.'
He held up his hand.
'Best if I work it out for myself,' he said. 'After all, I know these people and can assess what will suit them, while you might be imposing Western needs on them.'
'I would think clean water and sanitation would be basic needs for anyone,' Jen muttered, but she suspected he was right as far as details were concerned.
'Of course, and these things, too, can be provided,' he assured her.
'And perhaps better housing before the worst of winter blows along the valley,' Jen suggested hopefully.
He looked around and Jenny tried to see the camp through his eyesthe motley collection of patched and tattered tents, the tethered goats, the children running down the alleys between the dwellings, a small flock of ragged-looking sheep grazing on the lower hillside, while two hobbled camels slept nearby.
He shook his head.
'Housing? I don't think so. These people are refugees from across the border, this isn't their country. If we build them houses, aren't we telling them that they will never return to their own lands? Wouldn't we be taking away their hope?'
He was extraordinarily good-looking and it was distracting her, and the distraction made her snippy. Although she could see where he was coming from, she wasn't ready to give in too easily.
'You don't want these people who have lost everything to have some comfort and a proper place where they can be treated while they are ill?' she demanded.
'I would love them to have comfortable homes and a hospital as well, but back where they belongback where they grew up and where their families have roamed for generations. Back in the places of their hearts! Here, surely, if we build something resembling a permanent camp, they will feel even more lost, displaced and stateless. It's like saying to them, "Give up all hope because the war will never end in your country so you'll just have to sit here on the edge of ours and live on whatever charity can provide." I doubt there are people anywhere in the world who could accept that, let alone these fiercely proud desert inhabitants.'
'Well, you obviously know best,' Jen said, turning away from him towards the big tent and adding under her breath, 'Or think you do!'
An anger she couldn't understand was simmering deep inside her, although she didn't know what had caused it surely not this man pointing out something she should have known herself? And surely not the passion that had crept into his words as if he truly understood, and possibly felt, these people's yearnings for their home?

I have an Acer Travelmate 5520 with the Crystal Eye web cam. I havent used it (but it was working originally)and when I did want to use it I received the message "camera not found". In Device Manager there is no heading for Imaging Devices. I have downloaded updated drivers but the problem seems to be recognising the hardware. As with all things it is just out of warranty!
if it's possible to buy and install a replacement BIOS for an Acer Travelmate 2300 (as my 2300 died half-way through a flashing process-it will power on but there is nothing on the screen) or is the BIOS chip soldered to the motherboard and not possible (I've no technical skill at soldering). Or is there a way to reset the BIOS? I could find nothing on the Acer website specific for this model.

Due to some mulfunctioning of my TravelMate it cannot recognize the BIOS administrator passord anymore. how to reset it? just working on the CMOS battery doesnt work for that password (only resets the BIOS user password). is there any jumper or contact on the motherboard to reset? Can I flash a BIOS and get rid of it? Where can I find a copy of the BIOS? it seems that ACER Bios utility works under windows and requires to input the BIOS password for resetting.
I have a brand new battery in an Acer travelmate 5720. It has a BRAND NEW battery in it. at 50% power, the laptop dies as if the battery is totally drained. Will not even post to bios. Just dead.I adjusted the settings for the battery in windows to alert and shut down the computer at 50% to save whataver data is there, but this is not a good fix. There are no settings in the bios for adjusting the battery. What is going on in windows to cause this?I've read thru the threads and saw a lot of people with this problem only to be told that it's their battery or the laptop, and blah blah blah. Anything but Windows 7.

I am having problems with my brother's acer laptop. It's an Acer Aspire 5520. The first time we experienced this problem I tried removing the battery and I placed the battery back again. I plugged the ac adaptor into another outlet. I was able to get a a greenlight on the battery and on the hard drive. For some reason I am not able to get a greenlight on both indicators. I tried plugging the laptop on another outlet. It seems I'm not able to power it up anymore. Is it the battery or the power adapter?
I have an Aspire v5-571P Touch, running Windows 8.1, and for two years it's been awesome! But recently, it's stopped displaying low battery alerts. I've tried going to the Control Panel, Power Options, and using a different power plan. I've made sure that all of the power plans' advanced power settings are as follows (after a suggestion of upping the low battery level from 10% to 20%): Critical battery action: On battery: Hibernate Low battery level: On battery: 20%Critical battery level: On battery: 5%Low battery notification: On battery: On Low battery action: On battery: Do nothing (Sleep, Hibernate, and Shut Down are the other options)Reserve battery level: On battery: 9% I've read an article that suggested updating the BIOS, though there's also a red warning on that page of the Acer website; "Upgrading your system BIOS incorrectly could harm your Acer Product. Please proceed with caution." So I was apprehensive. Any way before I attempt updating the BIOS.

Acer ASPIRE 5520 Model ICW50. When I press the power button the light comes on and the fan spins but it shuts down every few seconds and repeats this action continuously.

my Acer 8204 laptop runs in the bios with just the battery, but the moment it tries to load up Windows it shuts itself off I tested it running on bios and it lasted the full 2hrs of battery But When running through Windows startup it has the splash screen and then It switches itself off automatically, with Power in it runs perfectly fine...
I found a BIOS v.3239 on the Acer.com (Pan America) driver website. However I don't know if it's for Vista or still XP, the website doesn't specify like the acer europe site did, however that BIOS version is 3234. So, does anyone know about the Panam acer site with the BIOS v.3239 for vista (or windows7)? And no I don't need my BIOS updated from the 3234 version, just curious.
I recently upgraded the bios on my Acer Aspire One 725-0670 from version 1 to 1.08. Now I am experiencing blue screen of death intermittently so I would like to rollback to the prior bios version to see if that would resolve the issue. I went to the Acer drivers website but only the newer 1.08 version is there. One way I saw on the web to rollback the bios was to disconnect the button cell battery on the motherboard - the writer says that will default the computer to the original bios. Unfortunately that involves an almost complete disassembly of the computer. Original bios available or some alternate method to get back to bios version 1.

I have a travelmate 5720g, which there is a mxmII slot that looks like it is possible to remove the current hd2600 and replace another one. I have been searching around about graphics card upgrade on acer laptops, there are cases where people have upgraded from nvidia to ati and ati to nvidia sucessfully without problems. Does that really mean as long as the mxm slot is capable of installing the graphics card, and upgraded your bios to the lastest version then it is just PLUG AND PLAY ?
i turned my new travelmate 8471 into a brick by flashing it with the wrong bios (shame on me ) - now i am looking for a way to bring it to life again - any suggestions?

I have an Acer Aspire 5672Wlmi and recently my battery went completely dead. I went to the Acer website to find out that they are out of stock which meant that I am out of luck. A quick search on amazon gave me some promising results and a few days ago I bought a battery that is an equivalent of the one I need. If I try to boot the computer using the battery I get an error saying that I have the wrong battery and I should insert the correct battery and press any key. This message is shown immediately after the Acer logo flashes momentarily during the POST so I guess this restriction comes from Acer's BIOS. Right now it seems my chances of having the right battery are as high as being able to find a key that says "any" o my keyboard. However I know that the battery is fine because it runs fine if I insert it once the latop has booted. Even if I remove the power plug after that it runs just fine. Also the fact that I am able to read the message when the latop is running only on battery is sufficient to convince me that my battery is fine and my BIOS is wrong. My questions is, what should I do to fix this problem? I have already contacted the seller but I thought you guys might know more about how to fix this. I guess it would involve flashing the bios which is fine with me. If it matters for the BIOS version, the laptop was bought in the UK.
I have not bought an Acer Timeline or Travelmate yet. I am considering going Acer because of the 8 hour battery life and dual core and I don't see any others out matching this specification set. To date no other vendor has the specs I am looking for. With that being said as of today there are multiple models out in the 3810T series and models coming out in TravelMate for 8371 for instance. Which is the absolute best model # or part # of the Acer 13.3" in the USA market. In other words, the most feature rich model with all the trimmings. Will the Acer Travelmate have the DVD and fingerprint reader while missing more consumer friendly features like better sound and the like? And if I use the pc for home and business usage, which one would be better overall? I keep waiting because the Acer seems to be the best platform to work on yet prices will drop further, more models will come out with different specifications and the like. Hard to choose which one to buy. My preferences are WIMAX, SSD, and a matte screen but I still want the dolby sound and the like which is on consumer models. Am I correct to assume I cant have it all but that the Acer Travelmate will come closest to what I want and I should wait for this model to come to the USA in the coming months?
I recently purchased dell 15R 5520 inspiron. After 4 months of usage suddenly few days back the system showed popup message that the battery charging is disabled . So I had contacted the customer service centre and after one hour they concluded that battery be replaced. They sent a new battery for replacement but replacing with new battery showed me the same message of battery charging disabled.
I have an Acer Aspire 5310 laptop which appears to have a dead bios and i'm hoping someone can help me bring it back to life. Although I'm not a complete novice with computers i have always avoided messing with things like the bios etc... so i'm struggling a little on what some of you would consider basic steps. The Laptop powers on, the fan spins for a few seconds and the hard disk light comes on..... I've followed several threads on different forums which have led me to believe that it is the bios. If i remove the battery, press and hold the fn + Esc keys and then plug in the ac adapter, the power light flashes orange for a second. While continuing to hold fn + Esc, if i press the power button the fan spins constantly and slightly louder than before... but nothing else happens??? I've tried to follow steps to flash the bios using a usb stick and the bios versions 1.50 from the acer website but to no avail.

I have a Acer Travelmate 4150. When i boot, the laptop shuts down in about 15 secs No issues with battery and hdd. The fan works for 2 secs and then stops.
I've bought some days ago an Dell 15R 5520 with i3 3110M, HD 7670M and a battery Li-Ion, 6 cells, 48 Whr. I use laptop for some browsing, listen music and edit text and my battery last around 2 hours. I turn off bluetooth. On official page of the product Dell says that battery should last for 6 hours. My OS is Ubuntu 11.10.

My Acer aspire 5542 stopped working today, there is no bios information or acer splash, just a blank screen, I have tested RAM memory, changed CMOS battery and power supply...
Many Acer notebook do have an Intel CPU which is VT-capable. However Acer does not enable this. The last BIOS versions doesnt give an option to switch it on. Now Windows 7 has an XP-modus which require VT-technology the time is come for ACER to enable the VT-bit in the BIOS for the 7720 (and proberbly more). How can we push ACER to do this?
This is the 3rd time that Windows 7 crashes in such a way that recovering/repairing is impossible. A fresh installation I put on a second partition finally seem to work smoothly and without errors when it crashes after a few days. The current installation is still working, but lags and gives errors (both came from the same source DVD) from the beginning. We're talking each time about the same machine, of course, a Acer Travelmate 5520 (dualCore 1,9 Turion with Radeon Xpress 1250). First I thought it was due to an incompatible update or some kind, but I have performed all upgrades on this copy of Windows and it is still running... So, can I acces the log files from my other (newer) installation ?
I have a new E1-572G laptop. Long story short, I installed Win 7 on it, and after that, Ubuntu 14.10. I had issues with bootloader, but after fiddling around with legacy/UEFI booting, secure boot, and things like that, I almost successfully configured the laptop. When I selected the ubuntu uefi bootmgr in the bios, in secure boot mode, I rebooted the laptop for what I thought the last time, but then it did not go past the Acer logo. Only combination that works is ctrl+alt+delete. If I remove the hdd, then the acer logo flashes for half a second, and a black screen appears, with a static console cursor at the left upper corner. I searched a lot in the topic, wanted to reset the bios, but there is no jumper for this, nor can I remove the bios battery. I wanted to reflash the bios, but I could not find proper instructions on this.
I have had a Dell Inspiron 15R 5520 since late august now. Not long ago an error message appeared saying my charger wasn't working. I knew that my battery was messed up. I went to a best buy and I was told that I had to buy a $80 universal charger. I knew right away this was false so I left. Is there anyway I can get a replacement battery off the warranty or some other way?
My laptop Dell Inspiron 5520 has not been detecting the battery.On start up it gives a error message "your battery has experienced a permanent failure and needs to be replaced.The system will power down if AC is unplugged".
I require some help on repairing a bad bios flash for this laptop. The problem started after clearing the bios from with in windows and then using acer esettings to create another password which would save the bios but it seems it did not save properly and resulted in a bad flash. The laptop no longer boots up, it just hangs with a black screen. I have downloaded the updated bios file from acer web page and used various methods for other acer models which use a usb floppy with the crisis recovey disk and rename 114.rom bios file to bios.wph but cant seem to trigger the laptop into booting from the floppy using win+b/esc and fn+b/esc. I have also tried putting the bios file onto a cd with various different file names but again it doesnt want to boot from cd either.
I see that thread BIOS Update V1.24: 4GB RAM in 9410? was already locked (yes, I missed it by more than a year). I'm guessing there are still users out there using their Acer Aspire 9410 laptops. I recently purchased two 2GB DDR2 modules. They both work fine individually and I've tested using memtest86+. When I plug both modules in, the BIOS only sees 3067MB. The Phoenix BIOS in my Acer Aspire 9410-4933 is version 1.24. I would expect that the BIOS sees all 4GB. Is there any Phoenix BIOS newer than 1.24 that I can use for my Acer Aspire 9410-4933? I've read that there may be hidden BIOS settings and I'm wondering if anybody can point me to a URL that describes how to un-hide those settings? Lastly: according to the aforementioned locked thread, the BIOS is the one limiting how much memory is addressable. Is there any way to hack around that?
My inspiron 15r 5520 is 1 year old and now it shuts down suddenly when doing slightly stressful tasks like playing games ,which i didn't encounter in the starting months. But from week whenever i play a game it shuts down in 10 min .Later i tried few suggestions from dell forums on overheating and found that the laptop runs fine on battery and as soon i plug in the adapter it turns off in 10 min .I checked if it is a overheating problem and found the cores temp at around 60 degrees celsius when idle and it crosses 100 when i play games plugged in and around 95 degrees on battery. I then checked if its due to dust but everything is clean and i use a cooling pad so this is quite abnormal. I have all the updated drivers and bios, fresh installed windows again, so what to do...
I'm about to buy a laptop and came across Acer's Travelmate C-series with the reversible screen that becomes a tablet. I thought that might be a nice bonus as I spend a lot of time retouching sketches in PS and has thought of getting a Wacom. But is the tablet on the Acer's A - compatible with PS, B - Pressure sensitive and C - any good. I basically wonder if PS-retouching would work with an Acer tablet-laptop.
I've read many threads about Acer laptops, but I couldn't turn on my Wi-Fi adaptor. I've got Acer TravelMate C110 and when I installed Windows 7 (Home Premium 32bit) I can't turn on my Wireless Network.

Why my acer + gtm382 working only bios v0.3108 not 3113 3115 3117 "not boot, display is boot is nothin and tilt " but 3108 working nice. I need new bios. Crack bios? Hack modem firmware?
It seems Acer has disabled the Intel-VT support for the Acer 7720 in the BIOS. I;ve installed the 1.43 version of the BIOS, but no difference. I;ve created a support request with Acer to ask them for enabling this option, which makes it possible to run an hypervisor like xen, kvm or hyper-v. At this moment it does not seem possible to run these. This would enable us to have almost native virtualisation of several OS's.
after some heavy usage, my Acer Aspire 7720 laptop started to accept only ~92% of battery charge and never gets out of that. Also, the battery LED flashes inconsistently (e.g. will stay on for a few minutes, then will blink wildly). I I use Arch Linux as my main OS, but it seems to be platform-independent (even when it's turned off it happens). The BIOS is the latest 1.45.
I bought an Acer Aspire 5520 few years ago. It has a partition with Windows Vista installed on that. Unfortunately that partition is deleted completely so I can not recover my laptop to its factory setting. Is there anyway that I can install that original windows Vista again? I looked behind my laptop and there is a label with a product key. Is that useful?
I got a new Inspiron 15R 5520. The problem is I can't boot the laptop from a USB stick like I did on N5040(My 2 years old laptop), and there is no option to do this. First, I hit 'F2' to enter the BIOS setup page, there are only 3 options under the boot device: Hard Drive, CD/DVD, Network. I restart the computer and hit 'F12' to select boot device, still no USB. Does Dell freeze the function to boot from USB device?
I installed Plymouth Manager a while ago and have had no problems with it until now. I want to change my splash screen (it's currently set to the Macbuntu one), but it won't start up when clicked on. I have the Screenlet Sysmonitor, and it doesn't even show the process as starting when clicked on as if I did nothing. Running Ubuntu 10.10, Acer Aspire 5520.
if there was any way to change my onboard graphics card in my laptop? My laptop is a Acer Aspire 5520, with the default Nvidia Geforce 7000m.I'm usually alright with it, but I'm trying to start playing serious games (Arkham Asylum ), and I get this error "1x32 fb render target issue".
i installed the Bios A12 for XPS M1530, my battery has been giving me the "plugged in, not charging" message. I've read in other threads that going back to Bios A09 fixed the problem for some people. I want to try that myself, but the problem is i can't install Bios A09 because my available battery left is only 4%. And the only way i would be able to install the Bios A09 is if i have at east 10% battery available. Since my battery can't charge,
i can use Xp mode in Win7, I have read it has been enabled on other Timeline models via a Acer bios upgrade.
ACER Travelmate 2420 fails to see operating system and will not restore from disc. My Acer Travelmate 2420 now fails to see the operating system. When I use the restore DVD that I had made it boots up and after a while the recovery runs. I hit a problem when the machine asks for disc 2 to continue the recovery. Only one disc was ever made during the back up session. A few facts. Before the OS failed Acer Recovery and other Acer Programs had started to not function. The C: and D: drives where NTFS Formatted. I have even considered cleaning the hard drive altogether and installing a new OS. The problem here is that I can't get into DOS Mode.
I killed my BIOS my mistakenly running a BIOS update in WinXP... Power light, power to drives but nothing else. After much searching I found I might be able to reflash it using a Crisis Recovery Disk, an external USB floppy drive and some combination of key-presses on boot. Various combinations of this have been tried (FN+ESC, Win+B, Win+Fn, Fn+B....battery in/out, yada, yada, yada) and so the fallback is to use the boot block jumper as per Acer's support information: [url] After downloading FRU guides, user guides and service manuals for loads of Acer models, I haven't got one for the 2000 series that helps, though I have managed to get the keyboard off (I understand this is the usual location for boot block jumpers) revealing switch SW5 with 4 DIP switches. Now what? :-) I have emailed Acer support but hear less than glowing reports about their responses, (I believe the motherboard is an Intel MS2154 which is used in TM20**, TM21**, TM25** and TM26** models, and maybe an Aspire one or two)
I have a crashed acer travelmate 6003lci, the problem has been pointed out as motherboard crash. I would like to buy a new motherboard or another crashed travelmate whose problem is not the motherboard. Even if you are not interested, I'd like at least to know what is the brand and possibly other details about the motherboard, its compatibility (or the compatibility of other motherboards with this model), so that I can look for it in Internet or somewhere else.
I'm looking for a service guide for an acer travelmate 230/280, can anyone point me in the right direction? I have the ones for travelmate 240/250 and aspire 1360/1520, is there somewhere I can upload them to?

I recently bought an Acer 4810T943G (su9400) with Vista. As seems to be common with Acer notebooks, it had a freezing problem, so I decided to flash the BIOS. The version it shipped with was v1.10. I went to the Acer website and downloaded v1.31, extracted it, and executed the program. The InsydeFlash software told me 'This BIOS is not for your notebook'. I tried the other BIOS recommended by Acer - v1.30, and even the special editions 2.30 and 2.31, but all came up with the same message. I then located v1.28 from somewhere else, and this flashed successfully, but I still get freezes, so I'd like to try 1.30 or 1.31. One thing I have noticed is that on the InsydeFlash software, the BIOS ID of v1.28 is described as JM41, whereas those of v.130 and v1.31 are described as AA, and A_A forms part of the file name on the v1.31 download.
I cannot turn off my acer laptop since windows 8.1 update.. whenever i do shutdown, it simply just restart after shutting down.. i dont know how to turn off my laptop.. also sleep and hibernate seems not functioning, in a couple of seconds it awakes again.. I tried the every thing about the power management to untick something about fast startup.. still no luck And i forced to shutdown my laptop during startup but it cause me a problem.. It wont power on.. and it seems dead but when i plug the power adapter the battery is charging but no signs of powering up(no power led, just battery led) whenever i press the power button.. i tried dispersing the static electricty but no luck.. the only option that solve my problem on not powering up is to disassemble my laptop and remove cmos battery. then i assembled it back.. it shows 1 blink of power led whenever i plug in the ac adapter without the laptop battery plugin.. and then it powers up again after i press the power button.. what a relief.. but it doesnt fix my shutdown problem.. the only thing i havent tried is BIOS update.. but im having problem right now.. i tried last year to update my BIOS after that it went wrong the black "screen of death" they call.. so i sent my laptop to service center.. and it fixed!.. I tried lately to update my BIOS but it says that i have already an updated BIOS version 2.19.. i guess this is the bios version installed by service center.. how can i apply the BIOS posted on ACER website with the latest version 2.15? If i want to turn off my laptop, i simply close the lcd monitor to remain it in sleep mode..
I am looking for advice on upgrading my BIOS from v0.3204 to v3238. Current Laptop Setup: Original BIOS v0.3204 Acer 6930G - T6400, 4GB DDR2 and 9600MGT 1GB Graphics GPU. Plus the usual Hidden Acer Recovery Partitions. I am currently using VISTA SP2 32bit but I plan to soon install Windows 7 64bit FULL CLEAN INSTALL. The global acer website currently doesn't list my current BIOS (v0.3204) but does list a new BIOS of v3238 released NOV 2009. Questions: 1. Is my laptop compatible with BIOS v3238 ? 2. Is it worth upgrading the BIOS to v3238 ? 3. Is BIOS v3238 needed for Windows 7 - 64bit to run better 4. Will VISTA SP2 still work with BIOS v3238 Additionally, if you look in the acer Bios zip file there is also a DOS folder containing the file zk2_3238.exe (eg DOSzk2_3238.exe). 5. Is it therefore best to create a DOS Boot USB DISK and Flash the Bios using the DOS EXE given above (since I have heard bad things about windows flash)? 6. And finally, once the new Bios v3238 has been flashed/upgraded, do you need to do anything else for the Laptop to function as an Acer Laptop (eg will it recognise everything)?
I have a acer 5920g with a 8600m gs 256mb ddr2. my bios is last version 1.3813 and my vga bios version is nvidia 60.86.54.00.27. The chipset is pm965. The vga is MXMII I have obtained a 8600m gt 512mb ddr2 from a compal fl90 free. It's MXMII too I've installed 8600m gt in my acer and when run it only see a black screen. Laptop is runnig but i don't have any image. I've read somethig about a acer vga bios for the 8600m gt but i don't know what i've to do. I don't know if i have to install this bios in the 8600m gt in another laptop. There is something patch for this card? This vga bios is possible to install in any 8600m gt?
I have an issue with my acer 5520. When I press F2 and enter setup My computer will just shut off! It may take 5 seconds or even up to 20 seconds but I got on to change my login options and it just shut off. I did this several times and it shut off time after time. My computer never turns off when I load windows and run Vista. I don't know if I need to update my bios or what.
Which will be a better choice? 5430's CPU speed, bus speed, cache and price beats 5520 easily, while 5520 is only better due to the advantage of HT, which I don't think it improves performance much... Intel Xeon Harpertown 5430 CPU Speed - 2.66GHz Bus Speed - 1333MHz Cache - 1 x 12MB Intel Xeon Nehalem 5520 CPU Speed - 2.26GHz + Hyper-Threading Bus Speed - 1066Mhz Cache - 1 x 8MB

I have an Acer Aspire One laptop and can use, with the drive's power adaptor, a SONY DRX-S70U-R external drive. However, the Acer won't power -- through just the USB hookup to the external drive -- the SONY drive without the SONY power adaptor. I would like for my Acer and external drive truly to operate off battery power in those cases where I need to do so. Is there some type of external battery that could power the SONY external drive for its use with my Acer Aspire One?
The battery on my Acer Travelmate 2310 has gradually been getting worse over time. It got down to lasting just 2 minutes on the battery after a full charge. Then one day it wouldn't start at all. I bought a new battery, charged it overnight and it semmed to work ok until the battery ran out again. I have put it on charge, but it seems dead again. When I hit the power button the battery light just flashes. Has it eaten another battery, or is there anything else that could cause this problem?

The 9th Annual Syracuse Nationals- Crank Up The HeatWritten by Chuck Vranas on January 1, 2009 9th Annual Syracuse Nationals
For many car owners, the cruise out to the Syracuse Nationals has become a must on the summer event calendar. It's a diverse happening that offers a myriad of things to do not just at the fairgrounds, but everywhere else.
Syracuse is a city that is rich in architecture, culture, and history, and it allows rodders plenty of enjoyable things to do during the day and lots of exciting nightlife to take in after hours. Being the birthplace of the Franklin automobile in 1901, it's a city that has never forgotten its automotive roots and to this day celebrates them with The Museum of Automotive History, which is packed with one of the world's largest collections of early automotive memorabilia.
If you were lucky enough to have planned an extended stay in the area, it was a sure bet that you might have checked out the picturesque Finger Lakes region that boasts over 60 local wineries, or quite possibly the National Baseball Hall of Fame & Museum located in nearby Cooperstown that was just brimming with culture and Americana. There was also the chance to have motored over to Heid's of Liverpool, which is a well-known drive-in landmark that was established back in 1883, famous for their grilled coney-style dogs and fries...you get the picture.
Settling in for the weekend, car owners arrived to the massive New York State Fairgrounds which encompasses 360 acres complete with loads of vintage buildings, tree-lined roads to cruise, and plenty of character that makes this fairground bitchin'. Despite temps that rode heavy into the 90s throughout the weekend, crowds weathered the heat and spent plenty of time crisscrossing the fairgrounds, checking out well over 200 vendors that had all of their latest cutting-edge products available. If you needed to duck out of the heat, there were numerous informative tech seminars being offered on Friday and Saturday including ones from Loctite, Air Ride Technologies, and Meguiar's with Barry himself there meeting with many of his loyal fans. Street Rodder Road Tour with Jerry Dixey and the Speed33 roadster made quite an impact all weekend long with an endless stream of visitors stopping by to both check out the car up close and to be able to talk with Jerry about what it's like on the long haul with such a killer ride.
With an event program that's jam-packed with things to do throughout the day, there was plenty of opportunity to stop by and meet entertainment legends Henry Winkler and Cindy Williams, whose popularity kept the lines to hang out with them deep every day. Artie's Party once again pulled in some of the world's leading pinstriping artists for a tremendous panel-jam with auctions benefiting charity of some of the most creative pieces ever presented. Plenty of entertainment from numerous stages kept the crowds hopping with searing sets from bands like The Royal Crowns, Fab Cats, Krypton 88, Gary Dunes, and Ruby Shooze who defied the hot temps while delivering the goods. While strolling the grounds it was easy to see that there were a multitude of build styles with everything from slick contemporary to ultra traditional rods and customs in attendance. Syracuse has become an event where car owners will often debut their newest creations with rides like John Favaloro's stoke Hemi-powered '36 Ford Deluxe roadster and Sam and Dave Wilczak's evil little chopped and channeled '30 Ford coupe making the scene.
Sounds like a pretty full dance card with all the cool happenings, right? Well, we're here to tell you that once the evening comes, you'd better grab a bite for dinner and head back to the fairgrounds, cuz the team from the Right Coast has assembled a nightly hoedown that's not for the faint at heart! Getting the evening program started at the huge grandstand area, everything kicks off with a wild tire burning competition that leads into a Demolition Derby, followed by a blistering flame-throwing exhibition by some of the country's most well-known pyrotechnic artists, and finally capped off with a dazzling fireworks display. A signature of the Syracuse Nationals is their endless giveaway program where a weekend of prizes offered to those car owners in attendance caps off on Sunday afternoon when the one lucky attendee gets the chance to win a new turnkey hot rod. This year the promoters knocked out the crowds with a stunning contemporary-styled Coast to Coast '39 Ford roadster that had everybody wishing they'd have a chance to take it home. By the time all of the excitement was over, it was Susan Lawton of Pennellville, New York, who was the lucky holder of the keys. By the time the festivities came to an end 6,790 registered cars had cruised through the gates while 67,000 visitors stopped in to dig the cool vibe. Thanks to the overwhelming support of the Central New York Car Club Association, event hosts, and area service clubs, donations were made from proceeds of the event in the amount of $70,000.00 (which included $48,000.00 from the Panel Jam auctions) to a number of local charities, bringing the nine-year donation total to $300,000. This is one event that's not to be missed so mark you calendar now for the 10th anniversary next year, 'cause we're sure it will be a blast! You can check it all out at www.rightcoastcars.com
Turtle Wax Tech Tips
Interior Cleaning
It seems as if it's just as hard to keep the inside of a car from getting dirty as the outside. Interior surfaces include vinyl, fabric and leather upholstery, carpeting, plastic or rubber floor mats and dashboards.
Before cleaning these areas, we recommend vacuuming to remove loose dirt, particularly from the folds of the upholstery.
To save time, use ICE Total Interior Care for cleaning multiple surfaces at once. It cleans, shines, and protects soft vinyl, plastic, and leather surfaces. It even works for removing stains on carpet and fabric.
To get the headlining back to its best, a coarse decorator's sponge is the perfect tool.
Rub an ice pack over chewing gum to make it hard and easier to shift.
Keep cleaner off steering wheel (unless you are using ICE Total Interior Care), gear lever, and pedals.

Tomorrow super regionals around the country will get underway, with Red Raider fans having to wait until Saturday to witness Tech's first ever super regional game.
The fans will pack Rip Griffin Park, to cheer on their team who went 31-4 on their home turf this season, including two 14 game winning streaks (one of which is still going) And didn't lose back-to-back games at home all season. It will be a tough task for the visiting cougars, and they know that so, arriving in their Hawaiian shirts, they will try to stay loose against the Red Raiders.

Who Song & Larry's Restaurant & Cantina is expected to reopen Friday, more than one month after a kitchen fire closed the Vancouver waterfront venue.
A Sept. 12 dinnertime blaze caused an evacuation and shut down the restaurant at 111 S.E. Columbia Way. Although no one was hurt, the fire caused damage that called for extensive repair and restoration work.
RM Opco LLC owns the restaurant, along with several other Mexican-themed chains that include El Torito Restaurants, El Torito Grill, Acapulco Restaurants, Chevys Restaurants, Las Brisas, Sinigual and El Paso Cantina, among other brands.

Sangster, Jodi
Infection with Mycoplasma bovis is an issue of great economic importance to the U.S. cattle industry, causing a loss of millions of dollars each year. This pathogen causes various forms of clinical disease, including pneumonia, arthritis, otitis, keratoconjunctivitis, mastitis, abortion, endometritis, and seminovesiculitis. Basic microbiological information about the organism and the current clinical presentations of M. bovis-associated pneumonia, arthritis, and otitis media are discussed.

Three impossibilities with partitioned indexesSubmitted by John Watson on Sun, 2013-09-01 10:22
There are three restrictions on indexing and partitioning: a unique index cannot be local non-prefixed; a global non-prefixed index is not possible; a bitmap index cannot be global. Why these limitations? I suspect that they are there to prevent us from doing something idiotic.
Are older releases of the database really unsupported?Submitted by John Watson on Sun, 2013-07-28 04:19
I see posts on Oracle related forums about various releases (anything that isn't 11.x or 12.x) being "unsupported". This is wrong. Of course you should upgrade any 9i or 10g databases, but you don't have to.

Oracle has leap forwarded the middleware technologies especially the database technology into the cloud. So far Oracle has been the traditional RDBMS database suitable for the private enterprise data centers within corporate walls.
"ORA-01081: cannot start already-running ORACLE" While creating a new DatabaseSubmitted by csm.dba on Tue, 2012-09-04 04:48
Hi Geeks,
When I was doing a research on Oracle Database creation, through DBCA, last week, I came across a very interesting scenario which I couldn't stop sharing with you :)
I have a cluster of machines (don't confuse it with a RAC cluster but just a group of machines required for my application deployment) with 184.108.40.206 installed and a Database instance running.
I got a requirement to remove everything accumulated in the machine as a result of the Oracle installation and the Database creation: The installation directories, the datafiles, oratab entries etc…
After removing all th

1Z0-052 Oracle DBA Admin 1 OCA Study Guide by Matthew Morris: ReviewSubmitted by John Watson on Sun, 2012-08-05 00:31
Matthew Morris (who makes many constructive and knowledgeable contributions to the forum) has written a series of study guides for the OCA/OCP exams. I asked him if I could have a copy of one to review. The result: it's very good. This is a copy of the review I put up on Amazon.

How to move a table from one schema to anotherSubmitted by John Watson on Thu, 2012-07-12 05:38
The other day, I was asked how to move a table from one schema to another. The answer, as we all know, is "you can't do that: you have to create a new table as a copy of the old one, or use export/import. It will take a long long time." Not true.

Reference partitioning and partitionwise joinsSubmitted by John Watson on Mon, 2011-11-07 08:46
Why do you sometimes not get partitionwise joins? Because the optimizer isn't clever enough. Reference partitioning has many benefits, one of which is that the optimizer understands it. You will always get a partitionwise join if your tables are reference partitioned.

Progress status of an index rebuild or creation, or other long operations.Submitted by David Lozano Lucas on Fri, 2011-10-07 08:12
When we launch a long operation, such as a RMAN backup or rebuild of a large index, we can come to despair of not having an estimate of the time it may take. We can even come to think that is doing nothing.
For the progress of a long operation we can query the view V$SESSION_LONGOPS, first obtaining the process ID from V$SESSION. In the case of DBA, we know exactly which user is rebuilding the index, so we can simplify it into a single query.
The following example shows the progress of the reconstruction of a partition of an index.

Constraints and performance: you want as many constraints as possibleSubmitted by John Watson on Sun, 2011-09-18 10:14
Several times I have had to deal with people who do not want to define constraints. I have never understood why they don't, because my experience is that the more constraints you can define, the better Oracle will perform. If anyone knows where the idea that not defining constraints is a Good Thing comes from, I would be interested to know.
Following are two very simple examples of constraints allowing the optimizer to develop better plans.
First, foreign key constraints. These give the optimizer a lot of information about the data that may mean it can cut out whole tables from a query.
