The Abbey

I have a Maxtor 500GB external hard drive and I want to be able to connect it to an xbox 360, so it needs to be FAT32.

I don't want to pay for software since this is a one off need but I can't use the built in Windows format utility because the drive is too big, and I'm not sure I want to partition the drive into 30gb sections (plus I couldn't work out how to do that either).

Advice please!

The font size in the playlist is big but overlapping. When I run the mouse over it, it shrinks but is then too small. How do I make it big without it overlapping?

I have just migrated from Musicmatch (which was really good) to Yahoo Music (which so far looks rubbish and has lost a lot of my settings)

I am not impressed!

Yahoo Music is NOT an UPgrade from Musicmatch.

I have found a great set of hair styles for my sims. I have downloaded the hair and the mesh but I am unsure where I am supposed to save the mesh file. (the hair is showing in the list already but not correctly)

I cannot figure out how to put a collar on my cats. I have been to the shop and bought two collars but don't know what to do next!

If staff don't use the same desk all the time or are sharing a desk with another person, how can a company give staff a proper workstation assessment and ensure their desk is set up correctly for that person to avoid injury?

I would love to hear what others think about this.

I'm just a bit miffed at the moment because I'll not in a position to speak up, and every day I have to use a different desk/chair set-up, the computers vary in resolution/screen size and even the lighting conditions differs depending on which bit of the building I'm in.

I love those large cookies that are all soft except for the very edge, but they are expensive to buy in England. Does anyone have a great tried and tested receipe?

I've heard so many stories!

Is it true that you are not able to upgrade them?

My computer is so slow and I want to have a go at building my own one. I would love some opinions on whether the following hardware will go together well or if anyone can recommend better:

** XFX GeForce 7600GS 512MB DDR2 AGP8x DVI TVO

** Crucial 2x1GB 184Pin DIMM PC3200 Non-ECC Unbuffered

** Asustek S939 nForce4 SLI X16 ATX A L R

** AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 4600+ Socket 939 512KB Box

... and I plan to install it into the DabsValue Alien Gaming Case which has a 480W power supply.

I'm terrible at first person shooters like Project Dark Zero (or whatever it's called) so I don't like to play them.

I do like platform and puzzle type games, am really enjoying the new Tomb Raider game and loved Kameo.

Obviously the main issue is how to be fertilised but aside from that ...

Could do with a good laugh right now, so please tell me your favourite lightbulb jokes.

Q. How many ants does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

A. Two, but God only knows how they got in there in the first place!

If I'm around I'll watch them to make sure they aren't actually hurting each other (which they don't seem to) but my instinct is to break the fight up. Should I actually leave them to it?

We're thinking of taking a day trip to Coney Island this summer, is there much there or is it past it's hay day?
