Now that Firefox has dropped Win 98 support and any claim of being a multi-platform browser, Win 98 users should consider Opera. The new version, 9.50, is not stable, and I would not recommend it. However, the preceding stable version, 9.27, works fine, and I can recommend it. Opera 9.27 has file extensions for cache files, and you can easily work the cache with an ordinary file manager. They dropped the extensions 9.50 only to be met by a chorus of boos from users. See http://groups.google.com/group/opera.general/browse_thread/thread /ed7b283c48d2be3f/35dff7608561bf99?lnk=gst&q=cache#35dff7608561bf 99

Greetings everybody. I'm new here and I'm making my first post. 'Amazing Facts' (http://www.bigsiteofamazingfacts.com) -- superbrian

Hey guys, Can I do a dual boot setup with above software. I currently have vista64 installed on rig and I have a new hard drive to install server on. I am concerned, however, about file accessability, but I would think Server08 would be 64bit. What do you think? Also, unrelated quick question. Does upgrading a cpu and/or mb effect your software licenses? Thanks

I am having trouble after win 2008 datacenter install on first boot setting the password. say that password is not complex enough.

I am just puzzled and I know this is an easy question but how can I make my replies be formatted correctly and not have the text jump all over the place or is that just a limitation of posting within a web based interface compared to a specific newsgroup program like Outlook Express or Mozilla Thunderbird.

Hello, We try to save energy for our remote desktop system. We have two PCs for outside sales using remote desktop connection to login. If we setup standby or hibernates mode, then the outside sales cannot login after one night. How can we save the energy without turn off and turn on these 2 PCs? Thanks

A few days ago I implemented the FSRM quota system because I prefer the directory-path-based quota system to the file ownership-based system. Since then, and on a few occasions, I've received alerts about quota violations for directory paths that have NOT reached their quota. Case in point being a path (let's call it D:\User) that had a 500MB quota. With 450MB in that directory, new files were unable to be written because of the quota. I deleted the quota entry in FSRM and recreated it, and now the quota works as expected again. Any idea what's causing this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. TIA!

I have already invested in 5 rounds of email question/response w/ Intuit on this - they have given up and have sent me to their phone support line. So, I know that I am doomed to suffer an intermitable amount of time on the phone with them. But before I submit to that, I was hoping to get some insight/ideas on how to diagnose my problem from folks on this site. My issue is that, after several years of using a number of versions of Quicken - up to Quicken 2005 - they are now forcing me to upgrade to 2008 or lose the ability to download data from financial institutions. I'm ok with that - but the problem is that Q2008 won't install and I am quite anxious …

Hi all, I have a network between 5 pc on which there is installed Windows XP Pro SP3. PCs are physically connected through a router. On one of the PC, what I acts as a server, are shared some directories while the other is not shared anything. Now, of shared directories on the server you find one that I make accessible to 2 machines "client" and not at the other two. I tried to make this thing in the properties of sharing, eliminating the rights of "Everyone" and setting those of individual machines but I have a problem: when I try, in the textbox "Path", I not find the other machines on the network and I see only the server machine that is the same which…

I recently re-installed XP SR3 on my home-built box and now whenever I attempt to run any of my games, I get a black screen on my monitor. I know the games are running since the audio comes in fine and the keyboard/mouse responses can be heard through the audio. Additionally, if I use my old CRT monitor, there is no issue but my Viewsonic flat-panel displays the black. My first guess was that it was video crad driver related so I updated nvidia drivers, then I went to the Viewsonic site and used their specific driver. No luck - I even tried rolling back to pre-SR-3 update and that doesn't resolve it. Anything I am missing ? Any help would be welcome ? …

I just bought a laptop with XP on it, and I can't find Windows Explorer. Did Microsoft do the usual thing and delete a feature because it was too simple and easy to use, or am I just not looking hard enough?

I've got a 4GB CompactFlash card that I'm trying to format through my card reader/writer external unit. I've tried a quick format and a full format. When both formats are complete, the summary shows the correct figure for the drive, but when I right click and view properties on the drive, the card is showing as only 1.96GB. What have I done wrong and what should I do to make the drive the correct size of 3.**GB? Thanks for any help.

Hi all Have noticed, all of a sudden, duplicate icons of add\remove in control panel. Appreciate any advice on how to delete one. Thanks in advance. franktee

Once or twice a day my cursor will become catatonic...I will move it and 15 seconds later the little arrow will move. This will go one for five minutes or so then things will go back to normal. The only clue I have is that I've noticed (using TaskInfo) that when this happens the Interrupts Time Placeholder will be using up to 95% of the cpu%. This may also be related to the 1-3 times a day lock up I'm getting...I'll be moving the cursor/mouse and either in mid movement or as I start to click on an icon or menu item...the cursor will freeze in place. I've waited for an hour and more to see if the computer will unlock but it never happens, I always have to reb…

I’m having problems with something called Windows Installer appearing and taking longer and longer to install MSN Explorer on desktop as I have to access my Hotmail accounts. Before SP3 download, MSN Explorer just opened, but if I have to put up with this latest fiasco for much longer, I’ll b forced to open accounts with Yahoo! Any ideas please? - Andrew.

Hi, I have installed the Windows 2003 R2 adminpak on my XP SP2 machine. I use Remote Desktops (part of Adminpak) to manage my servers. I lock my machine when I'm not around. However everytime I come back to my desk and unlock the screen I see an error saying mmc crashed ( and I have to reopen Remote Desktops again ). I don't see any high CPU activity or very limited memory available or such. This seems more like an issue with mmc rather than Remote Desktops but I haven't been able to find any solution on the internet. If anybody can throw some light would greatly appreciate. My sytem is latest Lenovo T61, plenty of resources. Thanks in advance …
