Well your security features are not our fault, jsut do a temp. shut down for 15 mins. it will re boot your firewall.

I couldn't get the soda can to work...it was too flimsy...but the metal from a floppy did it. now That I understand it a little better...I'll bet the soda can will work too. very cool.

Shrub actualy posted a video of the Tricircle 265 being opened with shims.

It CAN be done.
Time has passed, and I have loved many women. And as they've held me close, and asked if I will remember them, I've said, "Yes, I will remember you." But the only one I've never forgotten is the one who never asked.

USMAN,

Ok fair enough you cant do it yet for whatever reason, are you really in so much disbelief that i now have to make some shims from a pop can to prove it can be done?

The tri-circles are so poor you can some times hit them with a rubber mallet on the side and they open.

Forget shims and pick, if you cant pick yet then practise, shimming is no rocket science and is of no advantage to a hobby picker.
