  • My face as suddenly become very dry and started to flake?

    Recently I have had a infection called pityriasis rosea, which is caused by a virus, it is meant to affect areas such has the chest but not the face, and it has basically cleared up now but I have now got a very dry face which is all over my neck, face and my eyelids and scalp.

    I was wondering if anyone could tel me why this is happening.

    It can be itchy and does not look very attractive to have skin flaking off my face all the time.

    My face has now been like this for about a week.

    and had the orginal infection for about 3weeks.

    can some one please help and give me any suggestion on what i should do?

    Many Thanks

  • Network Attached Storage Help? plz?

    I am currently using a iomega 150d NAS and this is old and has become slow.

    I am looking for a replacement but i do not know much about NAS as I am working in a small office and i did not purchase the old 1.

    I am looking for a fast and reliable device that will be holding upto 2tb of important company data.

    I have been asked to do some research on these devices and determine the best replacement for the company, but because i have not had any experience with NAS can anybody please suggest some devices and links to reviews and website if possible.

    I have a budget of around £800.

    Thanks for the help in anticipation.

  • My GF doesnt trust me?

    So, i met this girl on holiday nothing happened(last year) and she happened to working in my town for the last couple of days so i went and said hello. My girlfriend then rang me while i was talking to her and said come back now youve been over there for ages (10mins) so i say ive got to go and go back over.

    My girlfriend then says shes going to the toilet wth her m8 and then this girl frm holiday txts me saying so which is your gf? bcus my gf had obviously gone to check up on who i was talking to, so i txt the girl back saying and she text back going i dont thnk she likes me, and i was like no i dnt thnk she does shes in a mood now lol.

    My gf then ask to borrow my phone, she then goes on my texts from this girl( i had nothing to hide) but then text her back without me knowing saying something and then deleted the messages all of them even the ones i sent. I asked my gf about it and she was like i didnt delete them. So i knew she was lying.

    So after this i was pissed of bcus she had lied to me, ad also bcus she obviously doesnt trust me. We had a massive fall out i didnt talk to her all day after this.

    We then make up the next day, i go home and shes text me saying you best delete her off your facebook and your phone!

    This made me really angry bcus to me this is just showing thats she is jelous of someone i dont really know and this girl off holiday has a boyfriend and she was working with him when i said hello. this isnt the first time she just generally doesnt like me tlking to girls although most of her friends are lads and i dont cry everytime she talks to a guy.

    So what shall i do? I havnt seen her in 2days now or really spoken bcus i sed we need time apart. Did i do the right thing? and what should i do now?

    We have been together for about 5years she is 18 im 20.

    (lots of other issues in past)

  • My IOMEGA StorCenter Pro 150d 2TB is running slow?

    I have an IOMEGA 150d and it is running rather slow. The drive is about 6years old. I used to be able to open a file straight off the NAS but now i have to copy it to my desktop to open it otherwise it takes forever or just doesn't work. This takes up time and it never used to run this slow. The drive is under half capacity at the moment. The drive did reach full capacity and thought this was the problem but when I removed some of the files stored nothing changed and continued to be slow. It is connected to 4 desktops through a Sitecom 8port network switch - Model No. LN-119 v1 001.

    The 4 desktops (all different makes) are running different operating systems Windows XP and Vista and also are running different versions of software which i am using e.g excel and access. (Don't know if this would make a difference)

    I have used the software that came with the NAS and used Fix Drive option and also updated it to the latest firmware.

    The options i came up with are:

    1, Format and restart?

    2, Update all PC's with same software (stab in the dark)

    3, Defragment (but not sure if possible on NAS)

    4, Scrap it and get a new 1?

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks
