I hadn't thought about the DRM nonsense. You may be be spot on.

I had a similar problem with the new Pink Floyd CD I bought it and it wouldn't play on my machine but would on my son's. Mines an older LG but never had a problem with any CD playing on it.
New version: WinHeist Version 2.1.0
My goal in life is to have a psychiatric disorder named after me.
I'm currently unsupervised, I know it freaks me out too but the possibilities are endless.

Silly question I know - but you are sure it's a CD not a DVD? I don't think 8.1 plays DVDs out of the box - don't you need 3rd party software?

Pretty sure it's a true CD. I checked the properties in Windows and both CDs show as being formatted with CDFS. I also used ImgBurn to check both discs and the information returned was essentially identical except for the total data size.

The usual cause in these cases is demonic infestation caused by the ripeness of your expectation that there is a rational answer, which attracts the evil entities like rotting meat attracts horse-flies.
The same demons that also mis-led you into posting this question in this forum, rather than on the "Joan Murt Memorial Software and Hardware Weirdness" Forum.
cheers, Bill
p.s. It's generally a waste-of-time to try and figure out which flavour of demonic entities caused the problem, whether mazzakim, rakshasa, ifrit, etc. As written a few thousand years ago concerning demonic beings: "If the eye could see them no one could endure them. They surround one on all sides. They are more numerous than humans, each person has a thousand on his left and ten thousand on his right." (source: Babylonian Talmud)

Can anyone recommend a free tool that allows you to deploy a sql statement to many different sql servers/dbs with a single click?
It's easy to build one but I figured someone must have a good suggestion on an already built tool.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

...is performing at the local Rooty Hill RSL tonight. Just so happen to have 3 tickets so it's me, the Missus and the Boy going. Got a bit over AUD$300.00 for food and drink, hope it's enough.
The Boy is hoping he performs his Absolute Sunshine Of A Day song. Been more than 7 year since the Missus and I saw him last. Hoping his daughter Genitalia from Australia is the supporting act again.

I think that's a fine phrase indeed! I shall not only use it, but teach it to the BoyTM as soon as possible, looking forward to the next time his teacher asks for an opinion on the maths lesson!

So what's up with your trademark? When will we be seeing an "R" version of it? You see - the people* have already started using it. 
* The OP, in this case.
Your time will come, if you let it be right.

I'm assuming when you say an 'R' version you mean a 'Registered' version - and not R-Rated?
If the latter, then the OP would be far better placed - perhaps "The Elephanting Boy ©"?

I meant the "Registered" version. I'd never bring such topics in the Lounge which would require members to have their mother to accompany them.

ok, only if you'd like the BoyTM suspended or expelled
My sister did retort back to a teacher once something to the effect of 'are you deaf as well as stupid ?' <snigger> we have rebellious blood in our veins

No good I'm afraid. The saying is As ugly as a hat full of arseholes. It is quintissentially Australia but is only good for describing looks.

That's cause you're a Pom and therefore have no decent sense of humour.

Can anyone recommend a good Web Hosting provider for an ASP.NET site?
We're in the US - West Coast region.
I'll do the legwork to see if they have all the features I need but I'm looking for mainly the best low cost provider I can get for a non-profit group.
Thanks,
Chris

Why not do the legwork to just Google for "ASP.NET hosting providers" and look for first 5 results and select from one of them.
As you mentioned non-profit, you can set up your own environment; laptop or computer, to a hosting environment. There are quite a lot of good articles out there too.

Have been using Arvixe[^] for a while; low cost and ok but they have their moments.
Alos, take a look at Discount Asp.Net[^].

I'd second Arvixe - been using them for a few years now and they aren't bad, particularly for the money.
Though they have just put it up by 20% here by adding VAT...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
