  1. You don't need one mate, just learn by mistake, I know it sucks but it's the best way. My Backtrack install was a right pain had to re-do it 4 times before it was correct (don't ask :S).

    What are the spec's on your machine? If I were you I'd just VM it, so much easier!! I know having a dual boot machine is handy (Mine is WIn7/Backtrack5) but I use it for work mostly. Other than that I've got a machine with Win7, Ubuntu and XP all VM'd. It makes a whole lot easier and also you don't have to worry about this happening again! Besides it's stupid easy to build a Pen Test Lab this way.

  2. http://sourceforge.net/projects/ms-sys/

    Linux program for writing Microsoft compatible boot records. This program does the same as Microsoft "fdisk /mbr" to a hard disk or "sys d:" to a floppy or FAT32 partition except that it does not copy any system files, only the boot record is written

    ms-sys.sf.net

    Another possibility to try out.......an no floppy drive hehe I still got mine in my main machine, never know when they will come in handy!!! (Almost never ofc :P)

  3. Also try K-Lite Codec Pack. It's very good. I was having problems with the VLC player and after I used the player that comes with the K-Lite Codec Pack, the problems seemed to vanish. Good Luck to you. :)

    Cheers I did mention I've got K-lite :P I'm downloading them them now and there all fine, will hunt down the problem later, if it starts up when I download season 3, we shall see I am sure :)

    Cheers for all the help guys.

  4. Kind of straight forward me thinks -

    http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Boot_Sector

    Go here follow the steps. They speak for themselves really. If it works WOOT! If not! Run fixboot from your XP Disc (you do have one or?)

    Then once thats done, do what the guy says "sudo update-grub" in the terminal since you've got Grub2.

    Try that and see what happens........then we carry on :P

  5. Aloha,

    So after finishing S1 of Hak5 I've moved along to S2 so as I have been downloading them all, from there individual pages in mp4. An so I've come across a little problem. Got all of S2 however, only episodes 1,2 & 4 have sound the rest don't -.-

    I just know this is going to be something so stupidly small I'm going to slap myself :S

    Any ideas as to why I've downloaded an cannot hear a dam thing :(

  6. If there are Uni's that don't have this this they should do! I don't know if there is anything offical in the USA, over here in the UK, we did a few RootThisBox type challenges while I was studying against few Unis that our Uni had partnered with.

    You should get your own going man, drop a line to head of tech asking for contacts at other Uni's work it that way. Not speaking for him but I'd contact Sam Bowne from CCSF (google it), he might be up for something like that :P Unless he's busy :P

    Either way doing it yourself, may be a chunk of work, but would be an epic project tats for sure. I'd join in with that for sure.

  7. Aloha!

    Network Admin is my main job, studying to for my CHECK Team Member exam atmo over here in England. Found Hak5 on iTunes watched a few episodes and now am starting from the beginning and working my way through. Up to S1E2, an it's all good :)

    Been in IT 10 years, enjoy what I do, just looking to learn more.

    See you around ppl.
