OK, I've done it, I've deleted both higher and lower filters but its no different, I've also tried uninstalling both drives in device manager, when I rebooted Vista tried to install both devices but couldn't. ** Just done a system restore and they are back and functioning, would be nice to know why it happend though.

How about this little Gem: GLENN ROEDER could not care less about anyone trying to nick his job at Newcastle. When the Toon boss recalls the brain tumour which left him fighting for his life four years ago, no battle is too great. Roeder came out fighting last night after Sam Allardyce was targeted to replace him following a season of discontent on Tyneside. The heat is on to produce a winning end to the season, starting today against Blackburn, with Allardyce waiting in the wings and the Toon Army growing restless. Newcastle have failed to score at St James’ Park since February 10 and are set to end a season of mediocrity in mid-table. But Roeder said: “Do you not think we’re despondent? I think it was Alan Ball coined the phrase ‘I pick the players up but who picks the manager up?’. “Four years ago, when I was on the canvas, I could’ve curled up and died but I got up and fought on. “The one thing I learned from West Ham was it wasn’t personal, it goes with being the holder of the job. “I’ve had praise and a few slaps up here so it really doesn’t bother me. I thought what Roy Keane said about football not being the most important thing in his life was right.” Free agent Allardyce is the man wanted to replace Roeder but the current boss added: “This club, for whatever reason, is a soft easy target for speculation — whether it be players or managers. “It was Bobby Robson, Graeme Souness and now me. “The good thing with my personality is that I’ve slept very well, it’s gone right over my head, I’ve only focused on winning this last home game. “That’s my nature, my personality. There are other issues in my life that don’t compare with speculation about my job. “I’ve had several meetings with the chairman recently and there’s more planned. All we’ve discussed is what we’re looking to do next year — that’s all topics, not just players. “We’ve had Owen and Ameobi out and, conservatively, there’s 35 goals between them in a full season. “Anybody, I don’t care who it is — be it a manager in work or a manager out of work — would have struggled with Michael Owen and Shola Ameobi out. You can’t get away from that fact. “It’s not been a great season but no one’s trying to make out it is. “I’ve never brushed things under the carpet, I won’t try to deceive, con or cheat people. “We’ve not done anywhere near as well as we could have done but there are strong reasons for that.” England striker Owen will make his first appearance at St James’ Park since December 2005 but the row over drafting him into the national side continues to rumble on. The hitman has been pencilled in for the England B international against Albania on May 25 at Burnley. But Roeder rapped: “Does Michael Owen need to play for England B before he puts on the England shirt again? I would say no. “That would not be my decision but I would be surprised and I would not want him to play an England B game. “I do not think it is necessary for him to have to play in the B game, personally. Training sessions will be more than enough.” OK Glenn, where's the evidence of that ?

I would, but thats not saying much to be fair.

Laugh ? I nearly passed the fags round.

Eto'o signing for Newcastle His best friend is a certain Albert Luque, do you seriously think he'd sign for us after his experiences ???

Oh this sounds so familiar............ Let me guess, Vista still installed? The frustrating thing is they have been working fine for the past 2 months of using Vista. * Just been given the following advice, don't know if this helps you or not Craig, I'll try it myself when I get home.

You probably have that opinion because he chose to reveal this fact to the press himself. He can't even do it without taking credit for the genius of his thinking. and you know me from where ??

Mourinho may come out with some utterly stupid wankerish statements from time to time, but in my opinion its a clear tactic used to take away the focus from his players, which works brilliantly, and he's not the only successful manger to do this.

Leeds United, who were already on the verge of relegation from the Championship, have entered administration, incurring with it a 10-point penalty. United appointed administrators KPMG who immediately agreed to sell the club to a newly formed company called Leeds United Football Club Limited, the directors of which are Ken Bates, Shaun Harvey and Mark Taylor. Richard Fleming, joint administrator and KPMG restructuring partner, revealed Leeds' debt totalled £35million. Fleming told KPMG's website: "We were asked by the board of directors to advise Leeds United on Monday 30th April 2007. The club has experienced significant financial difficulty for some years and was burdened with historic debt and wage structures. "It was necessary for the club to enter administration as its balance sheet dated 31st March 2007 indicated debts totalling approximately £35million, with a cash injection of approximately £10million required to continue trading. "Further, Her Majesty's Revenue & Customs recently issued a winding up petition for approximately £5million. If this debt had not been paid by 25th June 2007, the club may have been forced into liquidation." Football League rules state any club entering administration is to be docked 10 points. Administrators understand that these points will be deducted from this year's total and not next, thus confirming the club's relegation to League One, but also ensuring, crucially, that The Whites start next season with a clean slate.

No "if"s mate, it's already happend.

Suddenly both of my DVD drives have stopped working, they appear in device manager but with an warning, when I check the properties I get this message: Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39) I have tried clicking the update driver button, but it tells me that the best driver is already in use, I've also shut down and unplugged the mains but this has made no difference.

According the league, the points deduction happens with immediate effect, which is almost certainly the reason for going through this process now rather than later. Although it seems crazy that the business can be sold to a group fronted by the existing owners.

Shocking parenting if its true, but they will be inside-out with guilt and worry. Lets hope she's found soon, alive.

Which part ? the systematic sexual abuse of domestic pets or the part where Jose Mourinho would not be welcome as Newcastle United manager ?

'Drunk' Hasselhoff tape released Actor David Hasselhoff has said footage leaked on TV and the internet in which he appears drunk shows him relapsing from treatment as an "alcoholic". In the film made by his daughters, an apparently inebriated Hasselhoff is lying on the floor, clumsily eating a hamburger and slurring his words. One of his daughters can be heard asking him why he gets drunk, to which he replies that he is "lonely". In a statement, Hasselhoff has said he is now back on track with his recovery. "I am a recovering alcoholic," he said. "Unfortunately, one evening I did have a brief relapse, but part of recovery is relapse." The tape's existence was first reported on Thursday by US TV tabloid shows The Insider, Entertainment Tonight and Extra. Clips were quickly posted on their websites. The star said in the statement that he had asked to be filmed so he could watch himself back. However he insists it was never supposed to be made public. The 54-year-old actor says the break up with his former wife, Pamela Bach, after 16 years of marriage has not helped with his recovery. 'Positive relationship' "I have been going through a painful divorce and I have recently been separated from my children due to my work, I have been successfully dealing with my issue." "Because of my honest and positive relationship with my daughters, who were concerned for my well-being, there was a tape made that night to show me what I was like," he said. The former Baywatch star, who is currently appearing in a Las Vegas stage version of The Producers is warned on the tape that he could lose his job for getting in a state. "Dad, you need to promise me you're not gonna get alcohol tonight, OK? A doctor's coming over here in the morning to check your alcohol level and if there's any alcohol in your system you're gonna be fired from the show." The girl also asks him why he continues to drink. "Cause I'm lonely. I have trouble in my life," he says. Last year it was reported that the actor had been banned from boarding a flight from the UK as he was drunk. That was later denied by his publicist, who claimed he had chosen not to get on the plane as he was not well. In addition to Taylor-Ann, the couple have a 14-year-old daughter, Hayley Amber.

From what I saw there was a lot of tentative suggestion - his son is a crook and he's a manager therefore.... The main difference between the alegations is that the those aimed at Allardyce were implied where as Bond was filmed openly discussing taking a bung. Although I don't think that Allardyce is whiter than white, there is quite a difference between what Allardyce and Bond were accused of.

By definition, it should be refered to as the lap, I can't remember to much honour this season.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but were any of the allegations aimed at Allardyce himself in the Panorama programme ? I thought it was just his son, Craig, that was the centre of the controversy ?

Whats up ? have you got a midget to conseal ?

When it comes to being a twat mourinho is in another league. I don't want anything from him. Any toon fan who did laud in his achievements would get no respect from me, and I'll think you'll find that's how most Chelsea fans are viewed aswell. I'm lauding him. Honours * With F.C. Porto: o Portuguese Championships (2): 2002/03; 2003/04 o SuperCup Cândido de Oliveira: 2003 o Cup of Portugal: 2002/03 o UEFA Cup: 2002/03 o UEFA Champions League: 2003/04 * With Chelsea FC: o FA Premier League (2): 2004/05; 2005/06 o Football League Cup(2): 2004/05, 2006/07 o FA Community Shield: 2005 I meant any achievements here. I don't give a rat's fanny what he's done elsewhere, respect the man not the trophies. So he's a wanker, I'll take a successful wanker over an inept nice-guy every single time. I'll take a decent man who is a decent manager over both of those You must be fairly happy with Glenn Roeder then. How do you come to that conclusion then? Most would agree Roeder is a decent bloke but a shit manager, so considering your previous statement about managerial qualities he score reasonably high for you ? The statement wasn't an order of preference. My apologies, I clearly didn't read the rules properly.

I've managed to avoid watching it so far like. It's overrated like. Aye it is. Russell Crowe grunting his way to an Oscar ffs. Can't bear Crowe And yes, I continue in my quest to avoid Pulp Fiction too, and I succeed

I've managed to avoid watching it so far like. As well as Pulp Fiction ??
