cds are a lot cheaper than harddrives... another check is to see if it is a hardware problem. Does you BIOS detect the drive, because if it doesn't than the above 2 ideas are pointless. check this by hitting <del> or <F2> right at startup and go to the corresponding menu for IDE or SATA HDD...

your right,.. all they did was take 19.6/sin(15). should have been 19.6/(2sin(15))

Hi, I was just wondering if Heisenbergs uncertainty principal is about position and velocity (or energy and time),.. then how come we can know that a photon travels at light speed (its velocity) exactly and also know that it hit some detector (its position). If we know the velocity exactly...

Hi, first post. I'm not a physics buff at all and this is probably an easy question to answer. when looking at the fundamental theorem of calculus you take the limit as say t goes to zero (t being time). But does quantum physics say that t is not continuous.. something like a smallest time...
