make a password for the computer. I don't agree with be glad it's just video games -- addictions are addictions and can affect the family life just as bad as alcohol, porn or any other bad addiction.
If he's ignoring his family due to the games and it's creating a problem, then it IS a problem. I'm so fortunate in that my DH doesn't even know how to turn on a computer. He's never had an interest.
Password protect the computer. Tell him it's off limits. He will get used to not playing anymore.

I have one work computer (sm)
in a corner of the living room at my real desk (with places to put reference books and such) and one on the dining room table until I can get another desk. It's Grand Central Station. Have learned to concentrate while blips and bleeps and music are coming from PC on which son is playing. First thing people notice when they come in is the unusual number of computers in one place.
I work 2 and use my own computer, so yes
they are both on the same computer. However, if you are using a company-furnished computer, you CANNOT work your second job on that computer.
This is not my work computer and I am not scanning. This is not my job, so __

I need computer help. How do I make PRD work
PRD is on my old MQ program, but I can't seem to get it moved over to my Microsoft Word page. I can't seem to get my Stedman's Spell check over there either.

Computer work area...
Does anyone have their computer work area in a computer armoire? I am thinking about changing my work area to that, but I am used to an open desk area, and I am wondering if you feel at all boxed in by the armoire.
Just wondering...

They should definitely ask. I have a lap top in addition to my work computer and it is for the..sm
kids and anyone else who wants to use my computer. I'm not saying I'd never let anyone use my computer, but I'd have to trust them because this is my livelihood.
The MTSO I work for on my own computer
block certain sites when I am connected per their system. The internet is not disabled, but I have to disconnect from them to check my e-mail. However, research sites are still allowed.
your computer will work as long sm
as your generator is running. High speed cable would work if you have that outlet hooked up to the generator. Usually a generator is not hooked up to the whole house unless you have a "whole house" automatic generator. If the power is on and the cable is not out, you can work.
Computer crashed, cannot work for two days.
How do you prepare for something like this??? I wonder if the big "S" has compensation for this type of thing. Hard drive needed replaced. Egads. And I cannot work off my schedule as I would be, you know, cheating. This is a major financial hit.
How can a backup computer be used with Spheris? You work on sm

Question: If you work for national that provides computer,
can you ask their Tech support to move their files onto the laptop computer?
One other question: If you are required to have HSI connection for dictation and files, do you have access to that and how?
Anybody here work only on a laptop and not use desktop computer at all?
Does it drive you crazy with the small keyboard and small screen? Maybe it's something you get used to and compensate for when working. I'm considering getting a laptop just for work to keep things separate but looking for pros and cons of this. I figured somebody on the board has some advice on this.
I work for a hospital from home on my computer and they do this too. sm
I was told that it is becoming more and more common to see this happen as the internet can open the hospital to too many vulnerabilities. It's my computer but I am on their clock, so I am OK with it. I prefer my books to internet research though so it is not so bad for me.
Good luck with this.
Are you on a network or single computer at work?
Lots of things can make this happen. It depends on the normal.dot if that's where you are saving them. Some networks won't let you save to the normal.dot.
Two versions of Word on the same computer will only work

Playing CD-R
Do you have a photography program, such as Adobe Photoshop, etc.? In order for me to view my photo CDs, I have to open them through my Photoshop program.
Try this:
1. Put your CD in the computer.
2. Open your photo program. There should be a choice, such as "Get Picture", etc. Click on that.
3. You should then have some sort of choice of where to get the picture FROM, such as "Folder", "Drive", "CD", etc. etc. If one of the choices is from your CD, or the drive your CD is in (mine is "E", yours may be different), click on that.
4. If that works, you should then have a list of folders, or a list of picture titles, or whatever. If you click on a folder or picture name, it SHOULD open it in your photo software.
If I just want to view stuff QUICKLY, I invested in a wonderful software program called "Quick View Plus" from Inso Corporation. I love it because it really IS fast, and it'll open just about anything. You may be able to find it at:

You should try playing around with those
settings. In order to move my screen to the right or to the left, I have to push 1 button in to tell it whether I want it go vertical or horizontal and then push the other button to adjust that way.
Since your screen didn't reset when you rebooted, I would have to think the problem is with the monitor itself, i.e. adjust your settings or you have a blackout, which I think means you would have to replace it.
Have you visited the monitor company's website for troubleshooting tips and how to work those settings. There may be free tech support available there.
Your mother was right - but not playing the
sisters games and not allowing her to use you for holidays does not mean you don't love her.
Not playing fair-other ad too
Seems to me moderators don't play fair here. Another "job" ad has been posted since 6/17 with NOBODY objecting to it.
Look for ad by NSDExpress on job seekers
Over 1200+ lookers but NOT banned. Guess one has to funnel $ to the moderater to get posted on this board.
And that was after the guy playing a video game
..
Thanks for the info. I have no idea why he is playing
these games when he just sent an e-mail stating everything is now under control. It is just so sad that they take something that has the potential to be good and turn it and distort it and make it ugly. If in your search you run into Davis Transcription, please beware. They operate in a similar manner and in the end...you will pay for it. Good luck!
Seriously, I think it's Bill Cosby playing...
mind games with us because I do the same thing with Jello! I never make it, but I can say I have at least 3 or more boxes of the pudding and the Jello at all times. My children often see it and beg me to make it. What's the deal? Really, I think it's a leftover 'Bill Cosby' thing for me. I don't know what makes me buy it, I don't even like it. It's an illness. I'm sure of it.
for playing test file.........sm
when you click on the attachment, you should see open, save, or run. You could save it to your desktop and then open it with Express Scribe, if you have it. Right click on test file, you should see 'open with' with some options. If you have Express Scribe, this should be one of them. Media player or other media players will play it, but not with a pedal, so Express Scribe is your best bet. Good luck!

Hope everyone has a wonderful turkey day.
Cirie has done a wonderful job playing the game.
I'm thinking if anyone else keeps her that she could win. They all talked about getting her out way back at the beginning, but she's gotten this far. GO CIRIE!!!
Terry has done a great job getting the immunity to keep himself in the game, and we all know he has the idol for extra immunity, but I do believe he's getting cocky and that rubs me the wrong way. He'll definitely be around awhile, but can he make it to the end?
If the other two, Aris and Danielle(?) got to the end, everyone would have a hard time choosing who should get the money, so they certainly should stick to working together, don't ya think?
I always have satellite radio playing in the background. sm
There's a good variety of relaxing music. I have it on even when I'm not transcribing.
I think it also relaxes my dogs cause they sure sleep well when it's on:)
Express Scribe not playing end of dictation?
Every once in a while I get a file that Express Scribe can't play the last 2-4 minutes of. It appears to be playing, but the sound cuts out. When I send the reports to QA, they say they can hear the whole file fine. Has anyone else had this issue? Is there something wrong on my end? I checked the NCH website and others have posted this same problem but have received no responses so I am trying here instead. I also tried to play the file in Windows Media and it stops at the same point, but says it can't play the file. I am just confused why QA can get it to play, but I cannot.
I listen to music and pretend that I'm playing the piano.
Lots of instrumental, classical and new age stuff. Have you played TyperShark on popcap.com yet?

How do you break a kitten from chewing on and playing with your cords and wires? I just got my
daughter a kitten. I haven't had a cat since I was a kid. I'm kind of a dog person. The darn thing keeps playing with all the cords and wires under my desk and jumping on my desk and walking on my C-phone and keyboard and knocking stuff off my desk. I'm losing my mind! He's very playful and he is very rough. He is always attacking my feet while I'm working and not to sound like a baby, but it really hurts! I put him in "time-out" by putting him in a separate room and shutting the door for like 10 or 15 minutes, but he just goes right back to his bad behavior. It's definitely not like training a dog!
Help me please! My line count is suffering on account of his silly cat and I don't think my boss is going to buy my cat as a legitmate excuse!

It depends on what kind of voice files you're playing.
The sound on Express Scribe is terrible. I think it's worth it to find a player that plays your voice files with good sound. If you use wav files, a Bytescribe wav player would be excellent (get the dongle version so you get unlimited installs). They also have a version that converts DSS to wav. I complained about the DSS files not sounding clean on speed up and slow down so they told me about another version they have. If you have a Bytescrive wav player, it's already on your computer. Of if you're using DSS files you could also use a DSS player. (I've never tried them).
It should stop the play when you lift your foot from the pedal. Don't think it keeps playing othe

Is it their computer? Why are they installing a firewall and autocorrect on your computer? That sm

E-mailed glossary from work computer to PC but glossary isn't readable.
After literally two days of working on this, finally got my glossary to my personal computer and into IT V Pro which I upgraded (thank you Christina!!!). But my entries are all garbled.
I hope this isn't some safety feature used by my national to keep us from using company glossaries though I did create this myself over three years.
Job starts in three days (radiology) and I so need this glossary. Hate to start over again...as you well know.
Anyone? TIA :)
