USB Jump Drive
by Guest Al- 2 replies
- 411 views
I have a Gateway Performance 500 computer about 8 years old and using ME . I would like to start using a Jump memory drive (I don’t know the mfg.) After I installed the Jump memory drive and restarted the computer, I got a message that said “cmdnist caused an error in user.exe.” I found the USB disk and clicked on update driver, but I don’t know what to enter. I would like to find a new driver (free, I hope) that I could use. I would appreciate any help I can get? Thanks

Backing it all up 1 2
by Guest caroloyl- 31 replies
- 1.5k views
Having three C drive failures in just two and a half years requiring me to reinstall and re-set up every program I use (which I'm doing now) makes me wonder if it's possible to copy/backup my entire new C drive to a comparable slave for switching out when this new primary master also goes belly-up down the road. I've replaced enough internal hard drives now to know how to switch them and their jumper pins so the mechanics aren't a problem. But will this duplicating idea work to give me a fresh bootable functioning Windows et al with a minimum of trouble? My thanks in advance for your experience and insight. calamity carol

Hi Folks I'm always SO glad to find you guys here :-))) I'm still using and loving Me and have had no problems with the OS for ages but have just reinstalled it after yet another C drive failure--my third in two and a half years :-( Maxtors and Samsungs) I've been reinstalling my essential programs and helpers for a week now but before I reup and setup my favorite image handler (PhotoImpact) I thought I'd ask if anyone has ever tried moving My Pictures out of My Documents (where it's buried!) and what the results might have been. I notice that TweakUI offers the option to move it but I'm reluctant to try that without knowing if the default folder-view of …

Programs Folder
by Guest Ed Meza- 2 replies
- 469 views
When pointing to Start | Programs , most all the folders like Accessories, Avast, CCleaner, etc. have a yellow folder *blocked* by a square that appears to have a diagram on it. When displaying Folder Options, I see this diagram on the General Tab and *Use windows classic folders* is checked. I don't know what changed the appearance of these folders. There has to be a way to get such programs folders displayed just as *solid-yellow color folders*. I have tried just about everything and have not been successful to change them. Would appreciate any help. Thanks, Ed
