PC_LOAD_LETTER

Not hardware related exactly but hardware specific. I own a Logitech MX1000 and a Logitech MX Revolution and i use middle click (not autoscroll) frequently the MX1000 and Setpoint play nice and I can get almost any button assigned to what I need. However the MX1000s middle click wears out VERY easily in my experience (had my first replaced 1 month after i got it) and my 2nd one is 50/50 hit/miss on middle clicking so before i got my new MX Revolution, I came up with the idea of remapping left scroll to Middle Click (horizontal scrolling isnt a problem with 24" widescreen monitors) and got so used to it I found myself left scrolling on the new MX Revolution because Setpoint would not allow me to set Left Scroll to Middle Click. The MX revolution also has a way to toggle from smooth scroll wheel mode and the classic soft click that every mouse has. I found this feature quite nice but unfortunately I can only bind it to middle click. However there is a useless 'search' button directly above the wheel that I would like that feature mapped to. so to Summarize: I cannot map the Left/Right scroll to Middle Button (3rd Button) -not to be confused with autoscroll/Universal Scroll I cannot map the Search button to 'Shift Scroll Modes' This aggravated me and I set out to fix it and believe it or not, I actually succeeded! Here is a rough walkthrough on how I did it: C:\Program Files\Logitech\SetPoint\default.xml C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Logitech\SetPoint\user.xml (C:\Documents and Settings\User\Apllication Data\Logitech\SetPoint\user.xml in XP I think) the default.xml file contains the lists of allowed button binding sets for each binding type the user.xml are your users settings (no changes need to be made to this file manually but if you have to lookup a button binding name you'll have to open it) in this case I set my middle click button to 'Shift Scroll Modes' using the Setpoint software and opened user.xml <Device DisplayName="MX Revolution" --parameters snipped to save space--> <Buttons> --snipped to save space-- <Button Number="3" Name="3"> <Param IconLoc="" Type=""/> <Trigger Class="ButtonPress"> <Param Button="3" FirstRepeatDelay="0" RepeatDelay="0" Silent="0" Type="0"/> <TriggerState Name="ButtonDownUp" HandlerSet="ManualShiftSet"> <Handler Class="HandlerManualShift"> <Param/> </Handler> </TriggerState> </Trigger> </Button> Take notice of DisplayName="MX Revolution" be sure this matches the mouse you wanna edit (if you have had/do have other Logitech mice connected they will be listed in here too) We see that the HandlerManualShift is in the HandlerSet ManualShiftSet. ManualShiftSet is the information we need. copy it and open default.xml around 40 lines down the file you will see a bunch of lines that start with <HandlerSetGroup Name="AdvnSearchOtherMiceGroup" HandlerSetNames="--parameters snipped to save space-- <HandlerSetGroup Name="AdvnSearchMaderiaOtherMiceGroup" HandlerSetNames="--parameters snipped to save space-- the Variable HandlerSetNames is a long comma separated list of HandlerSets from our other types. I added ManualShiftSet to both of the lines quoted above. before saving the file, right click on the Setpoint tray icon and click exit. Then save your changes to default.xml and restart Setpoint. Select your previously useless search button and choose "Other" and then Select 'Shift Scroll Modes' from the list and hit apply. I also added MiddleMouseButton to all HandlerSetGroups that had the word Left or Right in their names (prolly only had to add it to one but didnt wanna miss one and have to try again) I have attached my default.xml and user.xml for reference. In thoery you could create a huge Mastar default.xml that had all handler sets for all buttons but i dont know 1. if the software will handle it or 2. if anyone else wants to modify their mouse buttons as much as i do Oh yeah, back up your files before editing, I am not responsible if PC blows up, burns down your house and your wife leaves you at the exact moment you hit save.

Anyone feel free to correct me if Im wrong but AFAIK, the only way to reduce the file size besides File->Data File Management->2xClick on file->Compact Now (which never reduces the file much for me) is to reduce the size manually (clear deleted items/sent items/Junk/Drafts/Large messages/etc) I usually only keep around 6 months email in outlook at a given time. The rest are in separate PSTs. File->Archive. Select All Folders Set the date to 1/1/2005 Browse and create pre2005.pst Wait File->Archive. Select All Folders Set the date to 1/1/2006 Browse and create 2005-2006.pst Wait File->Archive. Select All Folders Set the date to 1/1/2007 Browse and create 2006-2007.pst Change the names/remove the files from outlook in File->Data File Management Customize # of month per file as needed. Files can be burned and stored on DVD (you can also add a password in File->Data File Management) I store mine one of our file servers. When you need an email from a certain time period, insert DVD, Open Outlook, File->Data File Management->Add->Browse->Wait

awesome. at least he admitted to his mistake. Quite a few journalists don't seem to have that ability.

agreed. use dvd if at all possible because even if you get it down to less than 700 you may unknowingly take out something you wanted to keep or youll run out of space when integrating updates

plus 'magical jellybean' is just fun to say

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?...B;EN-US;Q316666 QoS it a non issue regardless of XP edition. if your network hardware does support it (and if it does its almost never enabled by default) then it could potentially use up to 20% of your bandwidth but it would have almost zero performance impact even in that most unlikely scenario.

if you need to pause for ~4 seconds you can also use echo pausing for 4 seconds before continuing... ping 127.0.0.1 > nul echo resuming... or echo pausing for 10 seconds before continuing... ping 127.0.0.1 /n 10 > nul echo resuming... i have that in one batch for a plugin installer that doesnt close immediately after install and will error if i try to access it immediatly

I setup a spiceworks server here after seeing it in a post here on msfn and i know it will scan and show what workstations have a product installed and the product version but it wont show the serial. -but it would at least give you a list of machines to check (assuming you dont already have one)

yeah i didnt have a huge problem with it until they stared using the same # for different CPUs I had a 3200+ that ran at 2.0 and had 1mb L1 but there was also a 3200+ that ran at 2.2 with 512 L1 -any that was in the 64 market -there was another 3200+ in the 32bit line too i think

I have this one and couldnt be happier with it http://www.gateway.com/accessories/product...000R.php?seg=hm they also have a 22" version but its not on their UK site http://uk.gateway.com/products/catalog.html?category=monitor but this place has it http://direct.tesco.com/q/N.1998895/Nr.99.aspx the 22" has 1 set of component in and the 24" has 2 component ins the 22" is native @ 1680 x 1050 and the 24 is native @ 1920 x 1200 (which is awesome BTW) the 24" can rotate 90 degrees too (dunno if the 22" will) but i read comic books on mine rotated 90 and its awesome P.S. i know zilch about stores in the UK so i just used the ones gateway linked to

here is what i got from what you posted. You have your PC setup to automatically login to your account when it boots. The account you are auto logging into does not have admin privledges. Click on Start, then Logoff. If your computer logs you off and immediately back on, Click on Start, then Logoff again but immediately start holding your left shift key. this will halt some autologon utilities Once you are on the Logon screen, if you don't have an Administrator account visible, hit Ctrl+Alt+Del twice to get to the classic login prompt where you can type the name of the administrator (Default is "Administrator") and that accounts password. of course, I could be wrong because as Idontwantspam said, your post was not very clear about what your were wanting to know. Im just taking a guess

Didn't say it was. 2008 - 13 = 1995

nope. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_MythBusters_episodes

just saw this on engadget http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/05/perpetu...n-machine-isnt/

what your trying to do may or may not be legal under the terms of the EULA for Jedi Academy (likely it isn't because usually the EULA will only allow for installation on 1 PC) but even if it was legal under the EULA, dicussing circumventing copy protection here is against the rules I realize you aren't pirating anything but rules are rules so it would be best if you didnt discuss circumventing the copy protection anymore.

CCleaner is the only thing i would recommend

//not mine ///actually like vista

Beta is a relative term. There is a huge difference between a normal beta and a XPize beta. I think XPize is very stable for what it does.

just saw this on fark.com and thought id share. http://www.orlandosentinel.com/business/co...n?coll=orl_mezz yeah its January again so now every fool with a blog is gonna be dispensing advice and top 10 lists. This guys wasnt too bad until he got to #5 1. Download the Firefox Web browser Ok did that in mid 2004 but still good advice 2. Buy your domain name Ok did that back in 2000 but still good advice if you can get one you like 3. Get a USB flash drive Cant remember when i got mine but this advice is like saying "Don't forget your right arm when leaving the house" 4. Photo management Yeah organize your photos -putting them all in "My Pictures" doesnt count as organized 5. Clean out your computer Delete all the big files on your computer and be sure to delete all your installer .exes too beacuse they arent used for anything like uninstalling, changing features etc. see the joke here is this was supposed to be a top 10 list but after he deleted a bunch of files for resolution #5 hes been having PC problems

what happens if you try to "Update Driver..." on the unknown device? can you save/view data on the card using the PSP itself? also do you have any other pen drive or removable hard drive that works/doesnt work on this system http://www.us.playstation.com/Support/PSP/...ds/default.html

if you have an "Unknown Device" in device manager i would say just rightclick and uninstall it, restart your PSP (popout the battery) start it back up, plug it in turn on USB mode via the menu and windows should redetect it. Its just a mass storage device like a pen drive or anything else. only other thing that should be mentioned is if you map a network drive to the drive letter that device was previously installed on, you will need to change the drive letter on compmgt.msc under "Drive Management"

id take a look at this information (kinda a summary of this thread)but i would recommend using a XP SP2 with all updates. There is nothing groundbreaking in XPSP3 thats worth risking an otherwise stable system for.
