I just tried
and can no longer get to it either. I just get the standard screen saying it's unavailable and suggesting trying again.

Weird...I just tried it and got in immediately....maybe a ISP issue or routing?

From the video's that I have seen (from Power-Trac) you can do some hydraulic work you self, like changing the motors on each wheel. It also sounds like Power-trac will give as much assistance as possible.

MossRoad - As to the toughness of construction of the PowerTracs, a friend of mine who went with me to the factory to look at the 2465 said "The only thing that could hurt one of these things is a bigger one."

I tryed to see your video also. All I got was the little square with red X in it at the upper left of my screen. JIM

Re: Problem getting to PT videos

MossRoad:
I finally read the whole page that I got when I tried to get to the videos. Down at the bottom, it said:
<font color=red>Cannot find server or DNS Error
Internet Explorer</font color=red>
I don't think there have been any DNS changes here recently, but I don't understand what they are anyway. Our mail service provider made a change, but in SMTP (?) address, not DNS.
I did download something or other from Microsoft upgrading security, which certainly could have done something, but I haven't a clue what. Any suggestions, anyone?

Re: Problem getting to PT videos

A clue, I guess. I logged into AOL, pasted the video URL in the address box and got right to it. Clearly the problem is my IE 5.5 browser setting going through the service supplier on the T-1 line, but I haven't any idea what setting to look at or change . I would appreciate any suggestions.

Re: Problem getting to PT videos

Charlie, I'm using IE 6 with a 24k dial up connection and got right to it by clicking on the original link. Of course, it took about 4 minutes to load./w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif

Bird:
Since I got to the earlier ones easily, I have to assume it's a setting that recently somehow changed, but I can't guess which one. Hopefully someone on the board can help. I, too can get to the videos either dial up or Tcp/Ip connection to AOL, but not through Kivex/Allegiance, my supplier.

My guess is that it is my ISP as sometimes you can get it and sometimes you can't. (What do I expect for $15.00 a month/w3tcompact/icons/tongue.gif). I'll call them again tomorrow and forward the information. Thanks for all of the replies on the problems. If they weren't so big, I'd just attach them like a photo, but they are way over the 150K limit. I could save them as smaller movies, but then you couldn't see anything as it would only be about 2 inches across.

Are any of you able to save them to your hard drive, then play them? I don't have the option of right clicking on it and choose "save target as", it is grayed out.
