Too wet to dry up

Sadly, the rain continued to fall yesterday after work so I didn't do any PVA-ing. I did, however, manage to change the outside lamp that needed replacing so that will help no end when I finally get stuck in.
I also had a play with the satellite card in the dual core desktop test PC. I couldn't get it to work at all for a while and decided to see if there were newer drivers that might help. Yes there were, and in spades! The new drivers are optimised for Windows 7 and they have even re-written the applications in order to take advantage of the new OS. It's all most impressive. Best of all, however, is the integration with Media Centre that it allows. I am so impressed, I am considering using this PC as a super PVR.


The above was written yesterday, Thursday, but only published today, Friday. Now for today's words.

I spent a while yesterday recording and converting a movie in order to check the Media Centre. All went well, but it is a bit long winded and I lost audio synch towards the end of the recording.
