EFF: No Broadcast Flag No Watermarks

Saturday, June 30

Ack.

Ack,

And ACK again.

Damn st00pid computer's giving up on me. For some strange reason, after rebooting my PC one day the sound card had magically uninstalled (the drivers) from the Control Panel, and now my very dodgy E drive (was damaged in transit originally I think) has decided to start dieing on me - taking my 5gig MP3 collection with it. Have to hurry up with that new drive and get it installed.

I've managed to half-resurrect an old ISA card, but that's dodgy too. Due to a botched Win2K install previously (involving a naff MBR, or Master Boot Record) I can't install 2K on the other good drive, meaning I have to stick it out with crappy 98 until at least July 4th. Grr.

Also, if an app is running sound and another app calls the sound card's routines, that's it for sound until the next reboot. No sound :(

Oh well, have to listen to the radio :D
