    Burning Crusade

    If you are, like me, having problems installing the Disc 2 of the Burning Crusade to WoW, well my problem was that after installing Disc 1, and after inserting Disc 2, the installation window freeze and becomes 'not responding'. Good thing someone posted the solution to this problem as well on the net but there was only just one person. So if you dont find that one and found this here, the solution is to install it using Safe Mode (spam F5 button during start-up) and hold down the shift key when inserting Disc 2. Why the shift key, no idea, but it worked even though it took me two hours to install in Safe Mode... but hey it worked.

    MSN Alerts on your own Space is a great way to enable people to get instant updates whenever you update your Blog!
     
    While it definitely requires a little more work, it's actually pretty easy to set up.
     
    1.  Install the PowerToys "HTML Container Part" - click here to learn how to do this:  (http://spaces.msn.com/members/thespacecraft/Blog/cns!1pBU8QRvZvOfXG4QTjpv_GFg!127.entry)
     
     
    3.  Receive Welcome Email - Accept Terms of Use
     
    4.  You'll receive another instruction email with HTML code for your Alerts signup button.  Copy and paste that HTML code provided in the into the HTML Container Window.  Here's an example of mine:

    6.  You're all set!  Users can get alerted whenever you or a friend updates your space!

Granular control combined with existing Spaces layout and module configuration allows for almost endless customizability and personalization.

    Custom HTML PowerToy:

                                   
    The Custom HTML Power Toy is designed to allow you to add a sandbox module to your Space in which you can enter text, link to images, and use other HTML features. The Custom HTML Power Toy supports all of the same HTML that you can enter into a Blog entry and can be moved around your Space as a separate module, just like a list or any other Spaces module. Additionally you can control the Title of this module and whether the borders for this module are displayed or not.

    The Media Player Power Toy is designed to allow you to play audio and video files within your Space.

This will allow the people viewing your Space to watch or listen to the media file you have linked. You can customize the experience even more by altering the player settings (like auto start, times to play, and player mode) while editing your Space.
