  • Looking for an old Science Fiction book?

    Hi, I am looking for an old sci fi book i read years ago.

    from what i can remember it is set on a prison planet, the main protagonist is a man, the locals go to war with one another but do not aim to kill, instead they use chalk tipped spears and if anyone got marked they were out. Also there is a woman who chose to be bald and companies the protagonist.

  • Looking for a book title?

    Ok so I read this book a while back and i can't remember its title.

    What I can remember is that it is set in the future, it is sort of a sci fi book, the story itself is set on a planet for prisoners. The main character is a merchant who sells stuff to the natives who are animal like but can speak. The humans and natives fight each other with long sticks with chalk on the tips. A bald woman comes to the planet to get away from the corporate world where woman are treated like sex objects.

    In the sequel of the book, the descendent of the main character from the 1st book is the main character. He is on a planet which has no technology so they think he is a magician.

    That's about all I remember

  • How to repair error code 0x490?

    Ok so today I turned on my pc and all it did was give me the option to start windows normally or go to startup repair. If I choose start windows normally the pc restarts.

  • Is this a good price for a second hand ps3?

    Ok so a friend of mine is selling his ps3 80 gig for R700 (south african rand) which is about $91 (us dollars).

    He has no cables or controllers but it is good condition, he hardly ever used it. I have the cables so I just need to get controllers.

  • Looking for an old pc game ?

    I remember playing this game years ago. It is a 2d game where you only use the mouse. The point of the game is to go through the level playing pranks on your neighbor and if he sees you, you have to start the level again. I think one level was on a ship and another was in china. I think the word neighbor was in the games title.

  • Can I repair my xbox dvd drive?

    Ok let me list the faults

    Firstly if I do not leave a disk in the drive, it won't open it will just stay closed even though on the dashboard it says opening, I have to fidle about with it to get it to open.

    Secondly whenever the drive opens it does not open fully the green lights on the xbox always flashes and after a few seconds the drive will close automatically. I have to pull it a bit to get it to open fully.

    Thirdly it has problems playing my games. It always says disk unreadable and must clean disk and sometimes it won't even read the disk, it just says open tray. Something it takes about half an hour before I can play a game.

    My xbox is old and my drive is the samsung ms28.

    Do I have to replace the whole drive or can I just change the lens or something?
