  2. Kelly's Korner is a great site for XP fixes, tweaks and all kinds of stuff for XP. If this is already posted sorry.........check it out........Kelly's Korner
  3. Lately I have to urge to wash my hands several times after I visit over there. Must be all the crap eh?.....
  4. I know G4 was haunted, I hope they didn't follow me over here......Hahahahahaha.....
  5. But I can't win the lottery though....... Now it just worked.......go figure eh?.....
  6. For some reason when I try and use the Fast Reply I get an error that tells me I do not have permission to use this feature. Am I the only one or is this something special on here?........Hahahahahahaha.....
  7. Not being a wise ass but I think I would just get another larger drive and use the software that comes with it to copy your old drive to the new one. 10gig is not much space for XP. Of course I know this costs $$$ but drives are getting so cheap anymore........
  8. I think I will lurk over there as long as it's up. I am not fond at all of the "new" rules, language and porn links and all. Not whining you see but I do get one here with my grandkids on my lap sometimes so......
  9. Has anyone tried this beta of Acrylic from M$? I downloaded it but if it's a piece of crap I don't even want to install it.........Hahahahahahaha.......
  10. On mine USB keyboard support is disabled in the BIOS by default......
  11. If you can't get into Safe Mode you may have to use a solution like this to repair the reg file......Reg Repair
  12. Oh my gosh!.....HAHAHAHAHAHA......Het Jeff you going to ever let me back in the chat room? One of you people kicked my arse off so I never returned........hahahahahahahaha....Slip of the tongue you see but I guess they didn't see the humor in it.......Hahahahahahaha
  13. Hey Jeff I didn't know for sure where to put this for the most exposure but Dave just said the G4 Tech board is gone as of tomorrow. hahahahahahaha.....I hope all those people come over here but I don't know......Kinda sucks but I just hope we can all settle in here eh? I hope you have no plans for a shutdown soon.....
  14. Yea it's a pain but it also will not show special codecs like Nero and etc....No big deal this is just a lot easier to use and for me to REMEMBER!!!.....hahahahahahahaha......
  15. I found this little program that will find and list all the codecs on your system. Kinda nice when you are not sure if you have the correct one......http://www.updatexp.com/sherlock
  16. Haven't had much time to play with this speed test but it looks interesting. Especially since it's non-Java based...... Dam Elwell"s Broadband Speed Test
  17. Hi Marty have you tried this?..... 1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel. 2. In Control Panel, click Performance and Maintenance, and then click Power Options. 3. Click the APM tab. 4. Check to select the Enable Advanced Power Management Support check box, and then click OK.
  18. First thing I would check it to make sure the sound device is listed and working OK in the device manager. If not just reinstall the drivers and see if the sound returns....... I can't seem to find my note on reinstalling the sound file. It might be on the other machine.....
  19. If you do this in time new drives usually have transfer programs with them to move all the data from the old drive to the new one. I would try that before the drive totally chokes on you. If the software doesn't come with the drive they usually have it on their websites for download.......
  20. If you have it set to boot from the CD and you get a BSOD it is not a reg error doing that. It should just boot right up and ask what you want to do, install, load up the repair console and etc......make sure you have the boot order set in the BIOS so the cd is the first boot device........
  21. All that command will do is convert the file system.......
  22. Try this link Restore Reg on XP Machine that won't boot it tells you how to restore the reg on an XP system that won't boot. It's rather tedious but it does work......Hahahahahahaha.....
  23. Who cares if you choose not to have "The State" sanction your marriage, more important that you two do......hahahahahaha......End of Wicca 101....and an adventure begins my friend and I wish you and your family well........
  24. Hey Marty just as a gas when you have some time you should try the trial version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus Personal version. We use it at work and it is very fast and see to really be on top of things. Of course it's not a free program but worth trying if you have the time to mess with it.......... Two Av's? I have heard of them detecting each others definitions and updates as virii before........
