  • CSTV isn't ready for the new Internet Explorer 7.

    And once you've downloaded it and have begun to use it, there's no going back to 6, without going to the trouble of totally removing IE, downloading 6 through another browser such as Firefox, and then downloading 6 again.

    As a result of my misstep, I'm having to use my laptop (which still has the old IE6) to watch the game this evening.

    Last year it ran on Safari, Mozilla, Mac, and just about any operating system on either platform.

    I understand that next years network will involve a string and a Campbell's soup can. It will cost an additional $12.95 per month and you have to supply your own soup can. Be careful though, it won't work with Progresso or Heinz.

In the middle of this school, there's a fountain. Each year, on the exact same day, the exact same hour, the water to this fountain is turned off. And in this moment, once every year, throughout the town, throughout the school, time stands still.

  • :) Campbells has refused to be linked with this crappy organization.  You must now use either Kroger brand or Western Family soup cans.
    It also must be the 24 oz can as the 12 oz will not be fast enough.

    Nope... tried that. Microsoft does something that detects if you have the latest edition, and then denies you the ability to go back to the old.

    And W0lf, all I know is that there is a "Watch" link this week, just as there was for last week's game, so I was presuming that it would be the same set-up... which essentially is, you get to watch the Jumbotron and listen to the radio play-by-play... we shall see.

    I was joshing around, but if you really want to go that route ->

    Take an XP OS cd, boot to CD and run setup, delete the primary partition (typically c:\) and recreate the partition with NTFS formatting that should take care of it.

  • Nope... just b/c it says "Watch" doesn't mean that one can actually "watch"... CSTV disappoints again.

  • sturt,
    I just did the same thing this week. I didn't even think about CSTV having a problem with IE 7.  I loaded it on my laptop. Now I am screwed because I like to take my laptop and use a S video cable to hook it up to my tv.  I guess I am going to have to remove IE and go back to version 6. :oops:

    They are consistent. Gee those boys at CBS that decided to buy CSTV are the kind of brilliant entrepreneurs that has made American business the great institution it is today.

  • Makes you wonder what CBS is doing. They buy this company to try to compete with ESPN and they can not even hold there A/V cables. Very third world looking graphics and sound is aweful.

    They may have bought this company as a Web outlet and not care less about the TeeVee.
