Been a dish customer for 4-5 years, never under a commitment sine my original 18 month one. Last fall, after trying to figure out ways to save money due to both my spouse and I being out of work, I called Dish to see what i could do to get my bill lowered. I lowered a package level...

No more "offers" tab, i liked to check that now and again to see if i can get some premiums free for a couple of months

right, but my system could not find 548, even after 2 reboots/check switches, i was authorized for the ppv, the service rep saw i ordered it, but it wouldnt find the channel no matter what we tried.

Ok, a quick background, a few months ago we disconnected our home phone to save money, and have been paying the $5 a month for not having our dvr hooked up. I wanted to watch the UFC(HD)pay per view , and knew i would probably have to run an ethernet cable to purchase it, but then i found...

I bet your apartment management can help you out with everything you need.

I had it too, with my local fox station, and when i contacted them, they blamed the provider, which for me happened with Comcast, and then again with Dish. I bet its the equipment that the Fox affiliates are using.

Really? is that why the Seattle Post-Intel ceased printing and has gone online only.

I am 99% confident in the issues being not related to spyware/malware. I have fixed literally a couple hundred PC's with those type of issues, as i diagnosed and fixed issues for a side job for a few years. This is somethign different, and i had never seen the CPU usage monitor exhibit the...

Its nothing out of the oridinary running as far as i can tell, that was one of the first thing i looked at, ran spyware scans and they wre spotless (at least for as long as i could afford to let them run with the issues, completed 100k files worth). No real downloading or anything is done...

Additional information, the PC takes about 2 minutes to boot up if not longer.. at first i thought it was the HD failing and causing these issues, until it began to happen when just trying to open "My Computer" to access the list of drives sometimes taking 30 seconds or more. it even can...

It started yesterday with random freezes on the PC, while the wife was online playing warcraft, could only get it to work by doing a hard reboot. last night i was trying to diagnose the issue, and it took a long time to reboot, i tried scans and multiple other issues and came to this one...

great thanks for the help, i figured as much.. but didnt want to face the wrath of the 2 year old if we couldnt watch all the Noggin shows we have accumlated on the DVR.

If i lower my package, Can i still access shows on my DVR that are from channels in the higher package?

maybe not everyone wants to sit in front of the PC to watch their shows? its 99 cents, its a fair price for some extra convienience. Also, is it commercial free on dish? NBC makes money by selling ads on their site, as does Hulu. NBC may require the payment as part of the agreement...

Its more than the hole at 3B, it gives them another power type player to help balance the batting order, and protect Morneau, health is the only issue with him. They lost the division in the playoff last year, but this year they have added Crede, they have Cuddyer back after basically a lost...
