Lost savings bond files, no idea why or how to get it back
by Guest peisenbe- 6 replies
- 236 views
I had saved a number of savings bonds from a website directly onto the desktop of my computer. Now, they have disappeared, and I don't know how that could have happened. I am not the only user of this computer, but I do not think any other user (only my family) would have deleted or changed the files, at least not on purpose. I tried searching for the file names using the Windows XP Search option, and I found the file names in "Recent Documents", but when I clicked on them, I received a message saying that the links were shortcuts, and the original files that they referred to had been changed or removed. Is there anything you can think of that might have c…

New PC's: 64-bit hardware/driver issues?
by Guest (PeteCresswell)- 5 replies
- 222 views
I've been anointed to provide a PC for somebody in the extended family. All they do is web mail and web page browsing... period, although I'd think any solution I provide should also be capable of rendering You-Tube videos. My first thought was dumpster diving, a little extra memory, a low-end LCD monitor and a cordless keyboard/mouse. Got an old Compaq Celeron 1.1 ghz/500-meg that I rescued from the trash sitting right next to me as my own spare PC which does all of the above adequately. Thinking, on second thought, that maybe a new box would be cheap enough tb worth the lack of hassle, I went down to Circuit City today and looked around. A guy the…

Warning before they've nested a file too deep
by Guest Boe- 2 replies
- 309 views
I believe the issue is that a folder is more than 255 characters in entire depth of the folder name e.g. c:\user info\templates for 2007\client templates\master library.... and Windows pretty much won't let you copy files there etc. Is there a way to have a 2003 R2 server to scans to make sure folders aren't beyond a certain length? Thanks

USB Mass Storage problem

The IDE drive is from a laptop and runs with the USB cable power. I can hear the drive running when I hook it up. It was working on the laptop before. I have seen the Disk management but nothing there. The problem seems to be that the windows fails to install the new hardware. It gives me message that recognised "USB-IDE" then as "USB Mass Storage " then it pops up saying "Failed to install new hardware" reason being that device is not recognised. I dont know how to solve it.
