What are short board pile foundation?

if its what i think it is , a pile is used as a deep foundation support for a building structure for use on soft ground to give solid support for the new building to "rest" on , short and deep piles are used by a drilling rig and filled with steel cages and concrete and then the pillars of the structure are set onto them , hope this helps im sure you meant SHORT BORE , the smaller and lighter the building the smaller piles that are needed (think of a 4 legged chair the legs being the piles the seat being the building and hey presto).


Your CD and dvdrw drives wont run on your dell dimension 5150 the trays open and close ok then a spinning sound for a few seconds then nothing Any ideas please?

Very likely that your lenses are dirty, especially if the computer is in a room where someone smokes. Check first to make sure that your computer operating system recognizes the drives. They should be listed and have drive letters assigned in "My Computer" for Windows systems. If so run a cleaning disk through them. If that doesn't work you may try manually cleaning the lens by opening the drive and gently swabbing the lens with alcohol soaked swab. Note that this will void your warranty, so if it is still in effect get it fixed by that route instead. If your drives are not recognized by your operating system, then possibly the IDE cables have become disconnected, devices connected in the wrong order on the cable, or jumpers are improperly set on the drives.


How do you remove scratches from LCD screen?

Some suggest rubbing it with toothpaste and a piece of clean cotton but it could be a bad idea. A cracked or broken LCD displayis not repairable and requires a new LCD screen to be replaced. You can replace the screen yourself (it is surprisingly easy to replace even if you are not a technical person). Replacing your laptop screen on your own is a great way to save money not only on the cost of the laptop screen, but the cost of labor as well.


How do you clean the contact edges of an interface card?

Great question. There are different "cautions" depending whether the contacts are only solder coated or most likely gold plated. Unless you have some really old stuff like I do, let's assume the contacts are gold. In the electronics biz, gold is expensive and though the contacts look like gold, they only have a 15 or possibly 30uInch layer of gold (sometimes only 10u" of gold). Thus the actual gold layer is very thin. There are basically two approaches: If the contacts are gold plated, then using ONLY a soft rubber eraser, gently "erase" the oxides and markings from the fingers, then blow or wipe them off with a cloth or paper towel. It's strongly recommended to use a ground strap on your wrist connected to the computer's chassis. Lacking that, first touch the chassis, then the card, and place the card on a grounded (chassis) surface like the power supply (unplugged of course). Use gentle pressure on the soft eraser and wipe the fingers back to gleaming gold. Too much rubbing or using a harsh eraser can remove the plating. Remember to do both sides! If the fingers are silver colored, then they are simply lead (solder) plated and not as delicate. I would still use a soft eraser, but you can use a little more force to scrub the solder bright again. If you are asking how to clean off some other foreign substance, I'd use a Q-tip swab with water first. If that doesn't remove the debris, then use isoproponol or medical rubbing alcohol to clean the debris off. If there were debris you had to clean off (hey accidents happen!), then once dry, use a soft eraser to buff the contacts until they're bright and shiny. Remember, don't go using an "ink eraser" which is very harsh, and use a soft pencil eraser or better yet, a white plastic eraser like those used for drafting (Mars plastic?). I forget the name brand, but they're among the safest erasers to use. When done, don't touch the contacts, but look at them under a light. They should all be uniformly bright and clean. Now, if there was an "accident", you would also need to inspect the connector for debris. For that, since an "accident" typically is some water based liquid, a moist Q-tip gently used along the connector contacts should help clean them up pretty well.. Be careful not to leave cotton lint in the connectors! Barring the connector cleaning, once the card has been cleaned, insert into the connector and pull it out and reinsert a few times, gently. this will tend to clean the connector but after doing that, you might have to touch up the card fingers with the soft eraser. If the connector is ok, and the card contacts are all shiny and uniform, then you should be good to go.
