Works for me Jay. Tug could do with a coat of paint though.

I take it you logged on.

Or it could be that bug of yours. I had to have a new hard drive because my computer just did its own thing and to hell with what I wanted it to do.

They work for me - even without logging on.
The link is to a different video (Prince Turning).  You can select the others at the top right.
The ones with the little white tug are "Berthing 1" and "Berthing 2".

I believe the 'flashing' problem stems from a, pardon the pun, flash problem.

You need to get hold of and install the latest copy of 'Flash Player' from:

Well - if we were all computer experts, we would be able to diagnose and assist you in your dilemma, however I personally (as one of the "works for me brigade")
was just passing a comment.
Remind me of your answer when it's something I DO know about.

As one of the "it works well for me brigade" maybe if you had explained more about what you were trying to and how, I might with my limited IT skills have been able to help seeing as how I have only just updated my own Flash Player. But, hey, next time I wont bother.

Well Dicky D if you had bothered to read the first line of the thread the answer was there and my second answer I said it was flashing, but what the heck it now works,so in the future if you dont want to answer anyone it does not really matter it is your choice

Maybe they got thrown by the initial question. One has to read it, then re-read it, then mentally insert some punctuation in order to get the gist.
Gotta give them 10 outta 10 for trying.

OK, so we have the answer to the problem. Now the posts are getting sarcastic and unnecessary.
