    Avast Help

    Hi all. Installed full version of Avast anti virus the other day. But since that day, ive noticed that a few things have stopped working. The windows update always stops...something about system32 having an error or something. I also cant open window media player or DivX...or get sound from youtube or similar sites. TVU player also says there is an error and cant open. anyone know what to do?
  2. ive never had any problems with them. had them for my old stock bike and they lasted a good year. better than dengura thats for sure!
  3. i also read...i think it depends how much time you want to devote to it. you could do it in 4 years but that would be full time, and 6 years if you do it as a part time course. the part time would be more suitable for me. thinking into getting a degree in early childhood education or maybe business..little bit at a cross road these days.
  4. it seems to be the only university in England i can find which offers distance learning. want to obtain a degree whilst staying and working in China...as i have a nice salary for easy work with a 16 hours a week workload.
  5. thanks. my sister recently bought an xbox360 and we both have left for dead, so i said would have to hook up and have a co-op...half a world apart.
  6. anyone know anything about the open university? good or avoid? would like to get a degree by long distance learning but not sure how legit it will be.
  7. not a hardware problem but im wondering..how easy is it to connect to the internet? do i need to buy some sort of membership? because might be a little hard for me being in china.
  8. problem solved...my friend bleed it but using a different way to the video i saw on this site. now i wonder how long it will be until i need to bleed it again. thinking of investing in a magura hs33 once the weather starts to get warmer.

    Pet Hates

    dont come to china!
  12. haha me no speaking engrish. just venting my frustration on why people have to act stupid to other people (especially a chinese person towards a foreigner) to the point that they try to attempt to damage my bike just because i didnt let him touch it. he didnt damage my bike, im just annoyed that he did it and then he got all aggressive because my friend told him not to do it.
  13. just why are some people complete tw@ts? was getting my bike sorted out at a friends shop when some loud mouth a$$ came up and said he wanted to look at the bike (apparently with his hands...not his eyes) but my friend has just finished fixing it and i was just about to hop on the pedals to try it out. then he started kicking my bike because i wouldnt let him "look". then my friend got pissed off and started calling him names (couldnt quite make it out-chinese), started saying shouldnt kick a foreigners bike and that it makes a bad impression of chinese people. kinda wished i slapped him around a little out of pure irritation but then i would have started the fight and couldnt say "it was self defense" are there stupid people like this in england?? its been a long time and ive forgotten
  14. thanks all. think i will try Eduardo's way..sounds simple enough. now to find a spare cross over in this city. if not then its a wait until february...when chinese new year is over
  15. hi everyone. with me being in china and the chinese new year coming up...and with my dengura menstruating, does anyone know how to make a quick bleeding kit?syringes are easy to buy here but not sure of size. what else will i need to make it? thanks all in advance

    Bleeding a Dengura

    thanks for this...had no idea how to do...have a feeling ill be doing it alot until i get some hs33's
  18. Hi all. Not sure if this have been a topic before...did a quick search but found nothing. Im currently running echo cnc brakes on the rear wheel and as of late i found them to be...crappy. often doesnt hold and have to pull the lever...often until its touching the bar. thought it might just be because its cold but then found it to be that the fluid is leaking. does anyone know if this is repairable or should i send them back to echo for the warranty? thanks all.
  19. havent had one for a very long time...hope i havent just jinxed myself

    does anyone know where i can watch the NFL (for free would be best) live on the internet? living abroad in a country where american football is REALLY unpopular means that i missed last season and dont want to miss another one. i have TVU player but there doesnt seem to be a channel that shows the games (live) thanks in advance

    Czar 20"

    beautiful...i want to get one now
  22. i guess when chinese people ask me, in chinese, if i can speak chinese is a pretty stupid question.
  23. just a few photos from a bike show i did at the weekend for a jewelery shop that opened. here in china...opening a new shop is a big thing and they also put up a stage and have performances and crank up the volume so that people with in 500 m can here it (police even came and told them to turn it down) got paid for it too which was a bonus...as well as get some fame also riding the mod as i couldnt get the stock repaired in time

    Owning A School

    Yes i can see what you mean. of course she only gave me the idea today and we will talk alot more about this next week. then i will try to come up with a list of things that might go wrong and then think real hard as if i want to BEGIN to commit myself to this. i have worked in other kindergartens before and know some bosses...i think best thing to do for now would be to ask them for advice as im sure they all went through the same. of course there is a big demand for parents wanting to have their kids learn english...some parents even push their 5 year old kids EXTREMELY hard in learning english (have witnessed it on many occasion) so i also see this as a good opportunity to make money. but thanks for all your help..its valuable and please keep it coming
  25. Today I was given an interesting business proposition today from a friend I used to work with. She wants to open up a bilingual kindergarten here in China, with the second language being, of course, English. Of course, ive had the idea of owning my own school for a while but always thought it was a wild idea. But now ive been given an opportunity to open a school. It will cost around 30,000 RMB to open and i can imgine..it will take a long time to get it anywhere near the other kindergartens i have worked in. As of now...im 80% positive with this idea and will have a better idea after monday when i go to talk to her in person. Has anyone else ever started a business or anything similar and can give me any pointers or words of advice.
