I think you mean:-
If there isn't any resistance measured then the brown wire is NOT connected to earth.
In theory there should also be a low resistance been ground and neutral, but this is Spain!

If you look up where 192.192.1.45 is you will find its allocated to a Taiwan location! Are you sure that is what they gave you as its your IP address? What is the IP address after you rebooted?

Re: HELP need pound sign urgently
If it is a laptop without the side numeric keypad then you have to turn on the numeric keypad. Using the normal numbers does not work.
It's usually an F? key to switch on the numeric keypad.

Re: Enrique and other PC wizzards. Spec me a machine please.
Before you part with your hard earned cash I would make sure that your internet connection is, fast enough / band-width is sufficient / throughput etc is high enough, for online gaming. I am not a "gamer" but I am sure somebody else can give you the minimum requirements.

Re: Convert Dynamic disk back to a Logical disk
Hi,
Suggest you make a search on the Internet. Plenty of solutions around depending on what you have and want to do. See
http://mypkb.wordpress.com/2007/03/28/h ... sic-disks/
for an example. Microdoze have an "offical" solution it seems, assuming you are not Mac.

Re: How do I get Channel TELECINCO
Hi,
Do a search for Telecinco as some information is available.
One site said they have Digital Terestrial but there is something here as well:-

Looking at the information the satellite channels are encoded though.

VGA to HDMI is not simple, as you say it requires analogue to digital conversion. This means it is not a straightforward cable but requires a box of electronics. This of course is not cheap.
