My First Windows Vista Problem
Posted by: Sean | Posted on: May 23rd, 2008 | 4 Comments
I have never had any problems with windows vista. I have always heard of people going on and on about how they hate vista for a serious amount of reasons, i have not had any issues with all these problems people have been having with vista. I have to say i am very happy with windows vista i have not run into any problems whatsoever up until NOW!! Unfortunately i have found my first 'flaw' in vista, while watching videos across the internet i have always enjoyed the feature of being able to watch the video's full screen, well you are probably thinking now that it is a given that we can watch them full screen, but i could not believe what happened to me the other day.
I was on youtube and wanted to watch a video full screen, for some reason my screen went black and i could not see the video but i could hear the sound, i immediately wondered what the hell was going on and pressed ESC and it went back to my normal browser window. I tried this a few more times and as a result i got this nice picture on my screen:

As you can see i got a BSOD, i had thought these had gone and instead your screen went white, it is common for programs to freeze and as a result your screen goes white instead of going the old way of blue. Well when this blue screen came up on my laptop there was no way to get rid of it except for pushing the power button and restarting, i submitted my error report to windows thinking that there would be no contact made back to me on what the hell happened to my screen but to my amazement i got a pop-up saying that a update is available that might be able to fix this problem, so i decided i would get this update, the update was to get a newer version of flash, i thought i already had the latest version so i went on over to www.adobe.com and got the newest version.
Hoping this would work i went back over to youtube and guess what, no joy
. So i still have this stupid thing going wrong with these full screen videos and have no solution to it. I know it has nothing to do with youtube because i have had to reinstall my OS before for other reasons and before i done that there was always a problem with the full screen. I thought it might be a problem with my video driver and checked for errors and checked to see if there was any new updates for the driver and there was none. I now have no idea what to do with it and i know for definite that it is a windows error so if you know of any solution i would be very happy if you could give me some help![]()

Exams almost over
Posted by: Sean | Posted on: May 15th, 2008 | 2 Comments
All this week I have been doing my summer exams in college. I have to say so far I have breezed through them with little trouble, so far I have done programming, math’s and databases. All I have left to do now is a Computer Systems test which is tomorrow, and I think I should do allright in it, as far as I can remember I have almost got enough to pass so hopefully the test won’t be too difficult tomorrow.
Anyway on another note I have decided that this summer I will try to make my own wordpress theme for this website, I like to do website designing and I am studying it at college also. I know a fair amount of html and css so that will allow me to understand a fair bit of what I need to do for the wordpress theme. I have been looking up how and what I need to do to make a wordpress theme on the internet and it does look doable, but I am sure I will run into some complications along the way, but no doubt I will be able to find the solution somewhere on the web.
