Need to display many bitmap files
by Guest AAaron123- 5 replies
- 228 views
I have a set of .bmp files that represent views taken at one second intervals. I like to display them, one every one second. They are named like: file000 file001 file002... Window Picture and Fax Viewer would work if I could set the rate to one second. Can I? Or maybe MovieMaker if I could Import the files all at ones rather than one at a time. Any suggestions? Thanks

I have a very slow laptop. I am sure that it is very clean. However, I suspect that over the years the Registry may have suffered a 'bump' or two. If the reason for the slowness was there, would an upgrade from XP Home to XP Professional make sure that any problems withe registry and other parts of the system would be totally solved? Thank you JB

One of the SysAdmins created a domain account (Win2k Server) user with the same name as the workstation name. Once someone logs into the domain using this account browsing network shares is no problem, however, after 30 minutes there's about a 5 minutes lag when trying to open up network shares? Can someone tell me why this is happening? Thanks in advance.
