Re: Cover Disc unusable.

I will resume buying the mag when the coverdisc problem is sorted out. As I said earlier the disc and Luis Villazon are my only reasons for getting this brilliant mag. the rest is just added bonus.

Re: Cover Disc unusable.

There are 2 reasons ONLY that i buy PCF: 1) Cover disc. Because although you may feel it is for the disconnected, there are some damn good apps that come on it that you would never have found by yourself. 2) Luis Villazon. It's the first part that I read and it is the last part. Most of the rest of ...

Bob, have you mailed cdsupport@pcformat.co.za at all regarding this? I've been looking for someone to send me a disc damaged by glue for the last month or so, so we can 'prod buttock' as Captain Carrot says. It has been cropping up in some areas but the discs that we get in the office never seem to...

Cover Disc unusable.

Greetings, I am now livid....... Third time in a row that the past 3 months my cover discs have been totally unusable. The dvd seems to be put into the cardboard cover too soon after the cover is glued together. The disc is almost impossible to pull out of the cover without damaging both the cover a...

Do PCF readers care about the planet?

I have been a avid reader of PCF for a number of years now. The other day a family member gave me all his old copies from 2005 to 2008 :mrgreen: I was overcome with joy to sa the least. A few days later, with very sore strained eyes I looked at my sister with utter disgust as she asked me "can ...

Been reading PCF for far too long now. and I have to agree that it would be a waste of time. The benchmarks are probably the ONLY part i o not bother reading.

Re: Custom Error pages using asp

Which IIS version? IIS only went big on web.config files from the Server 2008 editions onwards, although the .NET framework has been using them since long before. If it's a Windows Server 2003 box and not a .NET web application, web.config files won't help you; you'll need to configure IIS itself (...

If I point my browser to a non existent page I get the normal ugly 404 page informing me to use IIS to set custom pages. This is where my he...
