  • Colecovision games not working?

    I have a colecovision system and expansion module one. So far none of the colecovision games have worked, but a few 2600 games have.

    Any ideas on what could be done? A few sites have said the power supply can cause problems but then the atari expansion shouldn't work.

    I'm hoping that there's a solution, I'd loveeto play on my colecovision.

  • 2008 ford truck won't start in the cold?

    i have a 2008 ford f-150 with the 5.4 triton engine in it. the last few days here have been cold -30 as a high and even though my truck has been plugged in all night it's not starting, it's not even turning over all it does it click a bit. i thought at first it was just the command start because i was able to go out and start it later but today i just tried with the key and it wouldn't start.

    before it got cold we got close to a foot of snow and i had to go driving through that, not sure if that and then this deep cold worked together to cause me grief or what.

  • videos not showing on ipod touch?

    i have a 4 gen ipod touch 32 gig. everything is up to date. i was having troubles syncing it with my desktop so i plugged it into my laptop and the syncing went fine. but now if i want to charge it or put some music on i have to hook it up to my desktop (unless i drag my music onto my laptop and drag the laptop itself out every time). now that would be fine but when it hooks up to the laptop i have various movies on it and music as well, when i hook it up to my desktop all those disappear. in itunes it tells me that they are there and i can even watch them on my computer, but on the ipod itself it says that they are not there.

    not all of the movies are on the desktop, nor are they all on the laptop. both computers are authorized, and yes the videos are in the right format, i have watched them on there before.

    any help would be useful, i don't want to delete my downloaded copies because they were a one time only code so i couldn't redownload them for free again (which is stupidi paid for a digital copy i should be able to download it again if need be)

    any help would be useful

  • how to undo strange bolts for my dodge ram's starter?

    i want to change the starter on my dodge ram (2500 diesel 4x4) i have the new starter and everyone that i've talked to has said that it is a simple thing to do. the guide i have only has 5 steps to switch starters around. however the bolts that are holding it in seem bizarre, i cannot seem to get any type of wrench on them at all. i have tried different sizes and styles, metric and imperial, and nothing is working. they don't seem to be normal hexagonal ones instead they seem more like a multi sided star with at least ten "points". is there some type of tool that i'm supposed to be using for them? everything said just use a standard socket or wrench.

    also i snapped the small wire that comes off of the starter, can i just put a new end on it and reattach it like normal when i put the new starter in?

  • recharging the a/c in my truck?

    ok i have a 95 dodge ram and my a/c is out of coolant.. refrigerant i guess. i had it filled up professionally a couple years back but it all leaked out within months. and since that cost me an arm and a leg i would like to do it again on my own. now the local canadian tire has the necessary supplies but i am just wondering how to go about doing it.

    for example the simplest kit comes with two bottles of refrigerant and the proper hose, connectors, and guages to fill it up. but i have a leak. so i can also get a leak fix and a seal fix. one presumably would fix up a hole in the line somewhere and the other would fix up the seals if they are worn out or dried up.

    sooo what should i do? go with the leak stop of the seal fix first?

  • right turn on red, cameras on intersection?

    ok i recently got a ticket for "running a red light" making a right hand turn. now this was a month or so ago so i don't know the exact details. i mean it was me in those pics. but is it not legal to do a right hand turn on a red light? i mean the pics don't show if i came to a complete stop or not they show me on the one street and then they show me just after i turned onto the other street.

    basically a couple of questions, if i had waited for the light to be green then wouldn't i be running the other red light onto the street i turn onto?

    and do these cameras pick up whether or not i have stopped and then take a pic? or do they take a pic whether or not i have stopped. to me a still photograph doesn't show if i ever came to a complete stop, it shows me on the one street and then turned onto the next street, no pedestrians no traffic that i cut off.

    in fact the one pic shows another guy on the far opposite lane doing a left hand turn and he was definitely in the intersection after the red light.

    odds are i will just pay the ticket but for future events i would like to know so that it doesn't happen again.

  • choice between trucks, dodge vs chevy

    ok right now i have a 95 dodge ram 2500 with the cummins turbo diesel and i have the option of trading it for a 97 chevy 2500 with the vortec 350.

    both are similarly equipped 4x4, club cabs, the dodge has 350,000 km, the chevy 200,000 km.

    is this a good trade (i would also have to pay 3500 bucks on top of the trade). i've had no problems with my dodge, any advice?
