  1. A safe is sort of useless if you can't attach it to some thing big, some thing to bare in mind (Can't get in the safe? Steal the safe!). Also, biometric locks while convenient and a bit Orwellian are not necessarily the most reliable things, I'd personally prefer a good old fashioned lock and key or number pad or combination lock.

  2. lol, ok, well, at least it's not a file access problem :P

    Change it back of course.

    I have to wonder if this is a problem on the server and not the client. ssh-keygen isn't asking you for a passphrase is it?

  3. Did you associate .lnk files with virtual box?

    Best bet to fix this: Go in to the registry, and delete the key that associates the lnk extension with virtual box :/

  4. my bad, it does not successfully get into safe mode, when i pick the safe mode option, it starts to boot, but restarts when loading acpitabl.dat

    Nope, it's my fault, I read your post but magically managed to blank out all the negatives. Any way, stick in a Windows install disk, doesn't really matter which one (Vista, 2k3, 7, etc.) and run a file system check from the recovery console.

  5. It will be in a holder of some nature. There are a few different designs of holders, some require you to press on a clip of some nature to remove the battery, other just use some nature of spring to hold the battery in. Since you know relatively little about the insides of computers, I suggest you give this a read to avoid accidentally damaging the computer.

    It's quite easy to avoid causing static damage, just make sure you touch an earthed piece of bare metal before you start touching things inside the computer.

  6. Disconnect the computer from the wall power socket, open the case, remove the motherboard battery for a minuet. This will cause the BIOS to restore the default settings. If the default settings contain a password, google for the default password.

  7. My internet goes through a series of routers and I would have to set it up on all of them. Could I do something like reverse port forwarding where my computer is looking to see if someone is trying to connect to a different ip and forward the connection to itself?

    You could use a VPN service like hamachi.
