you have a 30GB memory card? that's a strange size... they're sized in generally powers of two.

That's generally the case, but some lower capacity SSDs are specified in tens of gigs. try googling for 30GB/40GB SSD. ;)

I think it's standard training for the Israeli secret service. (and some other security services around the world) Something I'd like to do, but my current lifestyle has to go.

As other have already pointed out. Direct connection to USB is hazardous to the health of the USB ports. However, perhaps if you got hold of a USB-Serial adapter it should be possible to use it on the Carrier Detect/CTS/RTS/DTR/DTS. whichever is available at the serial port. an additional smoothing capacitor & resistor above 1K-ohms in series should help filter out the switching noise/limit current demand.

What does the Event Log say exactly? Windows scripts can power-down/reboot remote machines *if* the policy is in place to allow that.

None of the replies (so far) have suggested this, but it could be network 'magic packets' that are able to wake your machine (WOL) to do admin/maintenance. My first guess was BIOS RTC. Now that you've disabled that, it's just a case of wait and see. :)

I've tried ebooks/pdf viewers. But it's just not for me. X|

I suspect you maybe right. something *convenient* and to do with cpu condition flags. :)

Take a look Here. :)

This isn't a Microsoft thing. BASIC is the issue. non-zero = TRUE. But it's still idiotic, and yet another reason to avoid lecacy crap such as BASIC. X|

Or get a computer shop to build one to his requirements/specifications. The prospect of self-build can be daunting for some people. So many options and pitfalls if you are unfamiliar with hardware jargon. :)

Thanks for helping a beginner out!

No problem. Semicolons in javascript are a bit of a nuisance because there are some nasty surprises with return statements in particular. Two books you definitely ought to have handy. Javascript the Definitive Guide 5th edition (O'Reilly), and Douglas Crockford's Javascript The Good Parts (O'Reilly). The language is a b*stard of a mess. Even the original 'official' language specification is crap. :mad:

Your test script is attempting to pass three variables (which don't exist) named Woods, Trista and M. Ditto for the lower case as well. surround them with quotes. "Woods, Trista M"

Brosnan's funniest moment was wasting the voice assisted car. "bitch!"

Even Connery's plot lines weren't very good. Daniel Craig has had more down-to-Earth stories, none of that idiotic bowler hat weapon shit.

How about when a bad guy asks a hacker how long it will take to crack something and they say 10 hours. The bad guy then puts the gun to his head and says you have 10 seconds and somehow he does it. :) :laugh:

And gets a complimentary blowjob too. Man I really hate that hollwood BS. :mad: ;P

I usually avoid anything involving computers/hackers in the story. There complete bollocks. Including the Matrix.

Better to have left it in the over-tight situation. You could've sanded down the ends of the PVC pipe.
