iPod 1.1: How to Scroll to Any Point in a Song: "1. From the Now Playing screen, press the Select button (in the center of iPod). A diamond symbol indicates the point in the song that is selected.

2. Use the scroll wheel to go to any point in the song. The diamond symbol moves as you scroll, and the elapsed time and time remaining indicators change.

Using XP Automatated System Restore (ASR) to restore backups from network?"

Google Groups: View Thread "Use ASR to restore backups from network?"

ASR backup sets are to be stored on tape devices, removable media, or a
fixed drive that will be available at restore time. Storing an ASR backup
set on a network share is not supported by Microsoft...

But...it is possible...Go through the ASR process...the restore process
should hang at the point when NTBackup is called to start restoring data
back to your system. At this point, you will need to a map a drive to the
share and point ntbackup at this share. If you are needing to load drivers
at this point for a NIC....you may be at a dead end...
