How do I turn off the Pop-up Description Baloons. I do not mean the Folder and Desktop Pop-up Description Baloons, I mean all of them. They drive me crazy. As I scan thru a document or anything else, the damn thing keeps popping up. I mean right now, as I put my curser in this window, a pop-up description pops up and tells me to "Enter your message" I hate these things... HOW DO I TURN THEM OFF ????????????? Thank you -- Geoff

I am trying to install Dungeon Siege 2 on my comp but every time the game tries to open, a box stating "Exception Detected" appears and then another message appears stating that Microsoft has encountered a problem and it has to shut down. Then the game program shuts down. Can someone PLEASE tell me what is going on and how I can fix this problem. Also, how do I find or change the "resolution". I was told it needs to be set at like 1400 X (don't remember) but it is probably set at 800 X (don't remember). Thank You, Michelle =-)

USB Autoplay not working correctly
by Guest Benny- 1 reply
- 150 views
I have Windows XP Pro. When I insert a USB memory stick I only get the Auto option to open images. I no longer get an option to "Open folder to view files using Windows Explorer". I have checked 'Properties/AutoPlay' for that drive but I can't see anyway to reset defaults. Mixed Content is blank. If I select 'Prompt me each time to select an option' I get the image downloads option only when I insert the USB. I have also found that the PC taskbar at the bottom freezes. Any ways to get it to work correctly again. thanks Benny
