XP Service Pack 2

For those of you updating XP with Service Pack 2 there are a few issues you need to know about.
Firstly a compatibility issue with some Norton software, such as Goback. Completely uninstall this software before upgrading otherwise your computer will crash -as we found out to our cost. It took us a week to fully recover from upgrading!
Secondly, the Service Pack removes all elements of Java from the system. This means most of our games won't load. This means you now need to install a new Java environment on the computer. This used to come as part of Windows and was installed at the same time. The link below is for Sun Microsystems. Here you can download the FREE Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment. Click on "Download J2SE JRE" to start. Download Java


E-Bay Parents licence

Keep a look out on E-bay for the full set of parent licenced worksheets being auctioned. We do this about once a month with the money going to a local charity, Bolton Lads and Girls Club. Search for'Maths CD' and you should find us. The latest auction is starting today!


Puzzle

Jane had 15 pennies and 4 bags. She divided the pennies up into the 4 bags so she could pay any amount of money from 1 p to 15 p without opening a bag.

How did she do this?



From everyone at 10ticks, have a great Christmas break,


10ticks WebMathster.
