Answer» I now that an hear it all the time but I just dont think restating at times when you mentioned something should be nessary. The red ball fell. The red ball is red. See what I mean it becomes repetative.Quote from: squall_01 on November 19, 2008, 10:29:23 AM I now that an hear it all the time but I just dont think restating at times when you mentioned something should be nessary. The red ball fell. The red ball is red. See what I mean it becomes repetative. your red ball analogy doesn't really hold water. the first sentence "the red ball fell" conveys the information provided in the second, since it also specifies the color of the ball. Now, if you had sentences such as "the red ball fell" and "the red ball popped", you could say they were repetitive, but on the other hand, you can simply say "the red ball fell, and popped" and provide the same information, with the benefit of the second verb actually having a subject, instead of forcing the reader to disambiguate, possibly wrongly, exactly what the subject was. As an example, take your post: Quote from: squall_01 on November 17, 2008, 10:55:57 AM dont now if you can flash it back but there is a way to roll it back. Service pack three is the most recent heard there still was issues. It's informative, and answers the questions. However- look closely at the second sentence. Disambiguating it leads us back to the first sentence, about BIOS flashing. I, for one, was thinking exactly what Dias posted. Now, we could reconstruct the sentence to be less ambiguous: Quote Not sure if you could roll back a BIOS flash, Some manufacturers allow it. You might need a more recent service pack to get windows to install properly.Sure, it really doesn't change a lot- but- it is now clear that the service pack comment is referring to a windows service pack, as opposed to say a BIOS service pack... whatever that is. It might get repetitive, but the idea is the pass ideas to other people, not save yourself time typing. Take special notice of my above sentence. you'll notice my first clause was "It might get repetitive..." Which helps you identify exactly what I was referring to. Basically- it doesn't matter how well-informed your response when nobody can make heads or tails of it. Thank you, this has been a grammar/idea provision lesson by BC_Programmer. Now anyway- I have an on-topic suggestion- Non-SP versions of XP could not access more then 137GBs of disk space, if I RECALL, and have problems with some very large drives. TRY creating a slipstream CD, viperx45, and see if you can install XP with the slipstreamed SP.Yes that is true however you still did get what I was saing. Yes thats all so but you should be able to install xp without any problems.SQuall does not speak or write English. Everybody knows that. I dont do it fluently there is a big differnce. dont like to use the spell check on here ether hard to get too. Should have mentioned that.Is it hard to get to because it's RIGHT at the bottom of every Post page ? ?spelling isn't the issue anyway- it's grammar. I'm Pro-Grammar, after all. HA HA! get it, programmar! lol. that was a terrible pun...patio do you to borrow the duck?Boy some do HOWDY yaaQuote from: squall_01 on November 21, 2008, 09:41:59 AM patio do you to borrow the duck? And then we have instances like this, where we find a mysteriously missing "want". Where did it go? was it assasinated? perhaps it was on BREAK? we may never know.Quote from: patio on November 21, 2008, 02:29:06 PM Boy some do howdy yaa For some reason that made me laugh so hard. I'm probably going to find myself saying that out loud at some point in a really weird voice, and then laughing like a maniac.Quote from: Calum on November 22, 2008, 10:01:04 AM Quote from: patio on November 21, 2008, 02:29:06 PMBoy some do howdy yaa try to avoid doing it in a crowded area. Unless you want quiet- things tend to get really quiet when you do stuff like that.you now what my part time job is |
