[Corrupt Data on a Flashdrive]

Hey, just an update. I managed to recover what I needed, with the exception of an important text file, but I can live without it.

 

 

 

So if anyone has the similar problem in the future I recommend Zero Assumption Recover (ZAR) which can be found here: http://www.z-a-recovery.com/index.html

 

 

 

It has a free trial version which allows you to recover 4 folders everytime you run the program.

[Corrupt Data on a Flashdrive]

Hi,

 

 

 

I have a Memorex 2 GB MiniTravel Drive, and unfortunately all the data on it was corrupted. I was wondering if anyone would have any recommendations (software, methods etc) on how to recover the corrupt data.

 

 

 

The flash drive is only 2 GB, but after right-clicking and clicking properties it says its about 150 GB used and 1.5 GB free :?

 

 

 

Thanks!

[How was school?]

 

 

 

@LP, I really think I would be homeless if I said that to my mom.

 

 

 

As would I, my brother, and my sister.

 

Same...its just something u wouldn't do :shame:

 

 

 

Truth be told, I've got trapped. I'd catch up to my work, only to realize that i fall behind and once i catch up i'd fall behind again. So far it hasn't been bad due to flexible due dates, but I'd really wish to catch up and stay caught up ;)

[asians...]

And when people call for me and don't remember my name they just yell out, "Hey, you! The Chinese kid!"

 

 

 

Oh....and so you know, the people who yell out "hey you, the chinese kid!" probably don't intend to be mean. It's just...well...it's obvious that you're being addressed. I mean hell, if there's some kid with red hair, I'd probably say "hey you, kid with the red hair!". It works, simple as that. No harm meant.

 

 

 

Its quite easy to differentiate (sp?) from what they mean. Personally, I dont see that as offensive, but then again usually im addressed as "hey you [racist term]" or some other racial slur.

[.:.:.:. Are you afraid to speak up...? .:.:.:.]

Well, if I told my friends that I play, it will be no surprise to them. I'm one of those nerd/geek types and generally dont have a problem with it.

[Why are Moss Giants even uglier now?]

im just wondering what the gray stuff is coming out of a firegiant's head is...is it smoke or odd marge simpson hairdo? :|

[Why I dont like astronautics.]

if youre really so worried about money then why dont you protest agains recycling?

I am not worried about money, Im worried about the way it is used.

 

 

 

Yeah, its quite disturbing to see all that money pouring into developing something, and then have it fail due to technical problems. At the same time, you can't put a price on knowledge, and space exploration has brought us many new developments, not only in space, but also at home. There's nothing wrong with pouring the money into the research aspect, its just that the government isn't spending it wisely.

[RS loading screen freezes in Ubuntu Help please?]

I switched over to Ubuntu and started using their xubuntu desktop to reduce some ram. I'm running a Pentium II at 300 mhz, 256 mb of RAM. I sent a query to Jagex, but they said something about going to windowsupdate.com

 

 

 

So heres the problem:

 

I load runescape. It loads fine for the first few seconds and then freezes at the Getting Updates screen. I'm assuming the problem is that its trying to write a file onto the harddrive but security settings prevent it. (I remember loading it in windows and I needed a to create a rscache folder.) I'm thinking I have to create the same folder but I don't know where or I can lower the security settings; but how to do that? Any ideas :|?

 

 

 

Thanks in Advance

[Biking - Any tips or tricks?]

When it gets frosty and wet, You might want to consider some fenders, so your back doesn't get all muddy and wet.

[Which Linux Distro?]

Well, if you really want Ubuntu, but your computer's too slow, how about XUbuntu? It's Ubuntu, but it uses Xfce for the Desktop environment. I would not suggest Kubuntu on your system, since KDE takes up much more resources than Gnome, but if you really want it all you have to do is:

 

sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop

 

 

 

so would i type in:

 

sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop

?

[Which Linux Distro?]

I was redhat's package management that drove me crazy. It would drive me in loops on end. For example if i wanted to isntall File A, I needed File B. I want to install file B it wanted file C. I try installing File c, it needed File A.

[Which Linux Distro?]

Wasn't fedora an extension of Redhat?

 

The reason i didn't go with fedora is because i had a bad experience with redhat.

[Which Linux Distro?]

I went with Ubuntu...seemed very easy and simple to use. Just wished i had read about kubuntu before installing Ubuntu...but oh well. Thanks Guys!

[A 6-year old swearing at me. Loudly. In Public.]

I've had some experiences myself.

 

 

 

I was riding on the road in the bike lane going at my own pace on a residential street. Then this suv comes up and a lil kid about 7 sticks his head out of the window and yells "Get off the F***** street!" When he's sitting right next to his parental unit. Apparently it seemed that the parent didn't really care which is more distrubing.

 

 

 

In your case issy, I would've picked one of them up, and set them in a high place where they can't get down and leave.

[Outrageous things you thought as a kid]

For some odd reason, I thought that we lived under a giant dome that was painted blue on the inside, and that would open up during the night.

 

 

 

I thought that ATMs would spit out cash when ever some went up and pressed a button. But that idea was squashed when i tried it out >.>

 

 

 

And that Grocery Bags would make good parachutes.

[Getting Into College]

Well Extracurricular activities aren't necessary a must, but they allow you to develop you're talents and generally help develop skills for later. Most importantly is that you should pick one activity and just stick to it, showing that you are dedicated and responsible.

 

 

 

Even, if the college doesn't require them, its a good thing to have.

[Best Day of Summer Vacation '06]

August 5 ^.^

 

 

 

that was the day we went camping and my friend and I stumbled upon a dead whale on the beach. Other than that my summer has been boring. Nothing like a dead whale to kick you out of boredom ^.^

[Could you use 1 terabyte hard drive space?]

you have 3 gigs of harddrive? lol

 

 

 

Can you get 1 tb of ram??

 

 

 

lol yup 3 gigs ;) its very very old...just need to last me another year until i get a new lappy for college.

[Which Linux Distro?]

I tried Linspire...but for some reason, it wouldn't install, everytime, it would come ton an error.

 

 

 

But I'll try Slackware. Thanks.

[Which Linux Distro?]

but is it easy to use? like installing stuff and mounting drives?

[Which Linux Distro?]

Its close to a new school year for me, and I'm a linux newbie so I'd thought to start the year with a clean computer.

 

I'm currently running:

 

 

 

Pentium II at 300 mhz

 

258 mb of RAM

 

3.2 GB of Harddrive space

 

Windows XP Pro Serivce Pack 1 (too lazy to get service pack 2)

 

 

 

I used to run Redhat 9 but it was way to complicated for me and I can't install linspire for some reason.

 

 

 

I'm looking for something that doesn't take up more than 2 GB of space and is easy to use. I'm thinking of Ubuntu, but I'm not sure if my computer is fast enough.

[Could you use 1 terabyte hard drive space?]

agreed with hulk, im using a 3 gigabyte harddrive now and has 600 mb to spare so a terabyte is way overkill for me.

[Poll: Would you eat this? v. BK Stacker]

ahh In N Out's 100x100...well i think the 20x20 is more manageable

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unfortuately they don't make either of them anymore...at least not at the store i work at.

[what is your runescape mastercard commercial?]
