I am interested in 2012, notably - the Mayan prophecy about the end of the world 12.21.2012. Many people talk about it now, besides, the movie comes out soon. I'm interested to read something about it. Disclosing this theme. Advise me some articles please. Thank you Hello.

If your Windows XP fails to run due to an error corresponding to lost HAL.DLL, invalid Boot.ini or any other important system boot files you can fix this by using the XP installation CD. Simply boot from your XP Setup CD and enter the Recovery Console. Then launch "attrib -H -R -S" on the C:\Boot.ini file and delete it. Run "Bootcfg /Rebuild" and then Fixboot Regards, Carl Hello Everybody

As a moderator of a very large forum (30-40 active mods), I get paid nothing to perform my duties. We do it because we enjoy the community and want to contribute...and we have a bit of free time available to do so. As mentioned above, if you don't understand the rules, or want to post something that you aren't sure is allowed - ask a mod. With most forums, there are very easy ways to tell who the mods are. 1) At either the top or the bottom of the subforum, a list of moderators assigned to that subforum. 2) On the forum's main page, look for a link labled something like "View Forum Leaders". That will be a complete list of mods, often also listing their assigned subforums. 3) Mods will often have a different color username, and/or a special user title under their name. For example, on the forum I mod, regular users are blue, paid members are bold blue, mods are green, and supermods are red. 4) Most forums I visit will have a "report this post" button, usually in one corner of each post. If you see a post that is offensive or violates the rules (spam, flaming, etc.), don't respond to it - report it! Help us do our job, so that you can better enjoy your visit. Remember, like you, most mods have lives outside of the forum. Jobs, family, real-life responsibilities. We can't be on all the time, nor can we be everywhere at once. Also remember that just because a mod doesn't have 10,000 posts, doesn't mean they aren't lurking. Different mods have different styles, but we all care about the forum community, or we wouldn't have accepted the invitation to be a mod. Also remember that moderators are nearly always volunteers.
