  Accessing External Drive.
Posted by: driftwood - 04-12-2024, 03:44 PM - Forum: PressF1 - Replies (2)

I have a USB drive plugged into my Router that can be accessed by my various systems.
I have done a re-format on one system and now I can't remember how to set up the connection.
I used to have a shortcut on the desktop called Mydocs which would go straight to the drive. 
I know what the address is, as I can see it on the properties of the other systems shortcut.
But It's not working for me.
Any ideas?

  More fabulous news for health...nah, not really.
Posted by: Lilith7 - 03-12-2024, 02:56 PM - Forum: Opinion and Politics - Replies (10)

Slash & burn, slash & burn; this govt has become so blatantly uncaring that you have to wonder whether some people may be somehow involved with private health providers.
 Govt had assured everyone last year,that frontline workers would not be affected.
Now clinical staff will have to do those things. How many people might die as a result? What number would be sufficient for govt to change this idiotic idea? Or do they not care at all?

Angry Angry

Frontline health workers told their jobs could soon be gone...those who make beds,tidy wards & replenish supplies to ease the load on staff may be out of work next year.

  New poll delivers hung Parliament
Posted by: king1 - 03-12-2024, 09:10 AM - Forum: Opinion and Politics - Replies (6)

This latest poll seems to suggest some New Zealanders are suffering buyers remorse...

Quote:A grinding recession and racial tensions have ended National's honeymoon with voters, who would deliver a hung Parliament if an election was held today, a new poll shows.
The Post/Freshwater Strategy poll shows National slipping four points since the October 2023 election.
Labour has gained four and leader Chris Hipkins pulls ahead of National's Christopher Luxon as preferred prime minister, meaning the race for 2026 is very much alive.

  Asus Vivobook Problems
Posted by: driftwood - 02-12-2024, 08:06 AM - Forum: PressF1 - Replies (6)

Having two problems with this laptop.
It's been losing the wifi intermittently and not resuming from sleep.
When the wifi goes out, it doesn't show on the device manager.
A reboot sometimes fixes this, or it may just come back on it's own.

This system started out on Windows 10 and then updated to 11.
I read on a forum, this problem could be caused by the latest windows 11 drivers not be totally compatible with the system.
So, I reverted it back to Windows 10 and the default drivers.
All was good for about a week, then both faults started to return.

Any Ideas or solutions would be appreciated.

13-year-old Barbara Kent (center) and her fellow campers play in a river near Ruidoso, New Mexico, on July 16, 1945, just hours after the Atomic Bomb detonation 40 miles away [Trinity nuclear test]. Barbara was the only person in the photo that lived to see 30 years old.
