Here is JSKYs page about cleaning and repairing the Prefetch folder.
thanks TT that is the secod time my compt has crashed
the pretch article is quite interesting
and to delete isnt as important as it is cracked up to be it is there for a purpose
i was taught to delete them ewvery now and then
\but in jc"s
article it is better to let the sys take ite natural course
this time layout didnt come when i installed windows
as it was i changed my hdd
to a bigger drive
but layout is there now
my compt is quite fast on cable
connection
i wasent looking for speed
i though prefetch was part of the cleaning
any how thanks ime going to install it on a flash drive

hi team i want to mention the quake in japan
my sympathy goes to all those people who are affected
and if there is any japanese posters n the board
ide like to say i know what you are going through
for the size of the quake
the loss of life was small thank goodness
compared with the size of the population
the japanese peo-le have to live with quakes
so they are better prepared than most othere countrys
tho if only one is killed that is a tragic
give a thought to those who lost lives

Glad to hear they gave out vouchers. Are the stores open yet or are you supposed to redeem them at some sort of relief center?
Are the stores open yet or are you supposed to redeem them at some sort of relief center?
yes some stores are open much is free
and if you get a voucher from the earthqake comm
it is free
i see all peole on a old age benifit
who have ahd some sort of damage
like comt and tv crashed and shelved and spilloed every thing to the floor
i can claim $500
i would prefer it go to some one who needs food and shelter for the children
but that is the earthquakes commissionjs policy
i have very goos neibors
as my water ins on yet many have bought me bottles and plastic bags of water
this makes me very humble
there are still godd people out there
this morning a lady bought me muffins
and ive never seen her before
must be away but keep in touch every one
spot ya later

Hi Marty. I was just thinking about you. Glad to hear you're OK.

Send me a new one?
Thanks,
Joe

of the need in emergency
i went to a relief center this morning and got a npther voucher
for water and food
as ime an old bugger
i have an old buggers identity card
it was a peice of cake
i need to mention a lady two doors from has bin cooking all through this crisis and dilevering it to local house hold

ok i got a food voucher organised
for $250
plus a petrol voucher tho i dont drive my friend drove me there
so the 4o galls will go to him
at first the organised relief was abit lax
but now every thing in full swing and weel organised
the center i went was the nz red cross
and i must give them a plug
they are a fantastic team
as a diabetic
the food i need it
different and more costly but it is some thing
tho i have plenty of money my bank is closed for repairs as all banks here are
so the voucher comes in handy
if any one is assocciated with a red cross in your area
say a kind word for them from nz for me

thanks team

hi team
ive just managed to get my compt on line
yes it was pretty devastating
more so with the deaths
and worse still i knew some one who is missing
this quake was 3-4 times bigger than the sep one
my house had no damage structurely but any thing a foot from the floor crashed
some one quoted 6.3
bullshit if they lived in my house they would know different
ishould say somwhere about 8.5
the deaths and the
devistation
will proove that
i saw a statistic on after shocks has bin a thousand since the big one
some you couldnt feel
and others had me running for the door
one ot the worse factors
no water no toilets no power
and no road access
and you can imagine all that made me wished i was living
on the moon
as i only bin able to get my tv going that i can catch up my self
as the news comes a cross
ile keep you in touch
thanks for your concern
in the first quake i near shit my self
this time i hit the jackpot
love ya all
marty
ps:
if any one in this thread

That is one of the costs you face when you go with a new OS, often you find that your hardware is not compatible.
Yes, you can try running things in compatibility mode, but remember that it may cause problems (freezes, crashes , conflicts with other devices..)
Since it still works on the XP machine; you may find that the best option is to keep it connected to that one and use it if you need to use the device. Then eventually go and buy a new win7 compatible one for the new machine.
yes pete i agree with your post
ive confined it to the winxppro machine
i tried to do away with the compatability sys
when i loaded win 7
i didnt checked the boxes
but it made no difference
it is there so ime stuck with it

hi TT
yes there are many aftershocks
at least two or every 2-3 hrs
it is the first time in all my years ive had to sleep with the passage light
and the front door unlocked
in our drill we get out as fast as wee can
tho the after xhocks have bin small it is enough to keep you awake
ive gotten used to them now and carry on life as before
but many thousands have left the city
ive just recently came home from a holiday in australia
and would i have loved to shift there
2 words YOU BET
BUT MY FAMILY ARE HERE AND I NEED TO BE NEXT TO THEM
thanks for your help as it seems when i post for a fix
you are an invaluable poster and ime glad
marty
