Itunes and drive letter

DO you know if you map any folder with the same drive letter as ur ipod\’s mount drive letter, iTunes will give a ipod corrupt error message. It\’s took me a while to find a answer, I even formated my ipod thinking some thing wrong with ipod, why can\’t ipod give a clear error message, 🙁 now I lost few songs I bought before my vista computer, I have to try mailing itunes see what they say 🙁

BBCiPlayer Beta

Got my invite today, works really well but shame they force you to use IE and windows media player and you have to install active x to link IE with BBCiPlayer which manages downloads, it\’s not instant download I get better performance on torrent. all in all great idea as I can re watch all my favourite comedy again and again 😀

open source windows

come a cross this article through digg, interesting read, but I don\’t really think MS will do that though, but what they can do is make their windows 9x code open source It\’s dies down now. all though win 9x code base is a shitty OS they run well on low end systems with just 16mb. so if that code goes to some cleaver people they can do wonders. and create fun little embedded devices etc. I know Linux can run well on low end system, but not as well as windows 9x though and allready lot of apps written for 9x platform

Shadow copy

I always enjoyed the shadow copy feature on win2k3 and winxp environment, as I have a habit of deleting the files I need, It’s saves lot of time with out going to backup tapes and restoring etc.

Now vista bring that functionality to home with out a win2k3 server, I didn’t know this till last week when I accidentally deleted the original rip from a DVD instead of a converted wmv file, (too big to get stored on Recycle bin) I kept both on a same folder, so I got mixed up, any way I did some googling to ways to bring the deleted the files and found out Vista have this option and brought it back with in 2 mins how cool.

My new job

 

I’m so use to work on single corporate IT departments,  which is lot easier  than my current job,  as we manage lot of company’s IT, It\’s a different challenge every day.  It’s hard and stressful but I love it. I should have done this long before I would have been  a expert. Only worked here for 4 weeks but I learned lots about windows 2003 AD and exchange. Working with lot  of IT people help me learn new stuff as well.
