    Misc Wii ruins computer's internet?

    Sounds to me like the router has a maximum number of IP addresses to allocate - and that maximum number is below the number of devices you're trying to connect...

    Hardware Wii optical drive

    Makes Bannerbomb impossible... you have to run a game-based exploit (ie. read an optical disc)

    Gaming What are those games that use Dance mat?

    The Family Trainer series do too. For those watching in PAL "Walk it out" is "Step to the Beat" for reasons known only to Nintendo.

    Hardware PAL Wii connection to input TV

    I'm 99% certain it will not do the autoswitching - physical presence of the pin means nothing if there are no electronics to drive it... heaps of the right type of cable on eBay delivered for under £5/€6/$8 worldwide...

    Hardware PAL Wii connection to input TV

    The SCART/Peritel standard has had RGB since inception in about 1977... just cheap manufacturers didn't play ball. Anyway the case here is the Wii, the Wii has RGB on an RGB SCART cable and the display equipment will autoswitch to that input if it receives the signal on pin 8 (ie. should happen...

    Hardware PAL Wii connection to input TV

    You use something like http://www.game.co.uk/Accessories/Wii/Cabl...19/?s=wii+scart - not rocket science.... Yes it does send the signal on pin 8. What exactly would that prove? You could simulate it in the video by having someone press the AV button off-shot...

    Hardware PAL Wii connection to input TV

    Do what? Wii here connected to TV via "proper" RGB SCART cable (ie. not cobbled together composite cable plus adaptor) does exactly what the OP wants (provided his TV supports it - which it would appear to do based on his home theatre experience)

    Hardware PAL Wii connection to input TV

    Which also won't (generally speaking) do the auto-switch to the right input like SCART does (it's a step backwards in that respect)...

    Hardware PAL Wii connection to input TV

    The supplied cable doesn't have pin 8 switching on the SCART (since it's a composite video cable with an unintelligent physical adaptor). To get that you need the fully wired SCART cable.

    Hardware Got a new WODE, need some help

    It'll work, many games won't because they need newer system versions... just like the original games that you own.

    Hardware Intec Balance Board

    Does he have any original ones in stock? I'd suggest that he doesn't and is looking to make a sale, any sale by telling you what he hopes you want to hear... if he had the originals in stock he'd be looking to make the sale on that instead because it's no doubt a bigger dollar amount.

    Gaming Gamecube related WODE issue...

    If it's a GC ISO it should be 1.35GB, as far as I know the WODE can only do GC ISO and no other format.

    Moving out soon - which ISP should I go for?

    Go take a look over at DSL Zone UK (http://www.dslzoneuk.net) or ISP Review (http://www.ispreview.co.uk) - both have "rate my ISP" type graphs... you'll see where the "big names" come out and why I too would avoid them.

    o2 Broadband - ISP UK

    Nobody at the front desk of O2 will have a clue what you're talking about... it's the same with most ISPs in the UK (and probably further afield too). Is this unbundled O2 or O2 via BTWholesale? If it's the latter, then they recently changed a lot of T&C and policies on "fair usage" (read that...

    Gaming Did uTorrent break my router?

    I see the OP is in the UK - many shitcan ISPs here throttle your connection, the whole thing if you start up a torrent prog and either don't release the throttle for 24 hours or until the connection is dropped and a new one made... Name the ISP and lets see if you have that "joy".

    Hardware NTSC Wii on a PAL TV?

    Most PAL TVs made in the last 10 years or more will handle NTSC input without missing a beat. In fact I'm hard pushed to recall the last time I had an issue with NTSC input on a "PAL" TV (I say that because so many are multistandard, despite being sold as PAL)...
