My nice Mecca Bingo win (02/03/08)

02 March 2008 - 10:02 PM

Just come back from my local Mecca a lot better off....


£1000 FH + a bonus £1342.50 for calling FH under 50 numbers (I called on 42 numbers --- Wish it had been National then I would have had £80,000+)

FREE Mecca Bingo - 11am-11pm then a £29,000 FH Game

29 February 2008 - 09:35 AM

Just in case anyone is not working today (Friday 29th Feb) - or if they have access to a comp at work.

Mecca Bingo are doing FREE bingo ALL day from 11am - 11pm
Then there will be a guaranteed £29,000 prize for the 11pm game (but this game isn't free - tickets are £1 each, but if you win on the FREE bingo why not give it a shot)

See ya there ..

Speed up your internet connection by 20%

04 February 2008 - 12:54 PM

Found this -- seems to work fine on my system

=======================================
A nice little tweak for Windows XP. Microsoft reserves 20% of your available bandwidth for their own purposes (suspect for updates and interrogating your machine etc..)

Here's how to get it back:

Click Start-->Run-->type "gpedit.msc" without the "

This opens the group policy editor. Then go to
Local Computer Policy-->Computer Configuration-->Administrative Templates-->Network-->QOS Packet Scheduler-->Limit Reservable Bandwidth

Double click on Limit Reservable bandwidth. It will say it is not configured, but the truth is under the 'Explain' tab :
"If you disable this setting or do not configure it, the system uses the default value of 20 percent of the connection"

So the trick is to ENABLE reservable bandwidth, then set it to 1%.Dont choose zero as its been patched to default back if you do.

This will allow the system to reserve 1% , rather than the default 20%.
