Lord knows it needs it ! 1.Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries: network.http.pipelining network.http.proxy.pipelining network.http.pipelining.maxrequests Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time. When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really speeds up page loading. 2. Alter the entries as follows: Set "network.http.pipelining" to "true" Set "network.http.proxy.pipelining" to "true" Set "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to some number like 30. This means it will make 30 requests at once. 3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and set its value to "0". This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives. Or > http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/Browser...Optimizer.shtml

only seems to display this behaviour if i use a cracked/hacked release or run UISO as a standalone exe , with no install.

i have tried easyboot and could never understand it. far from 'easy'. i reckon the long way still rules, but i used balder multiboot last nite...superb !

hmm, well, to Remove the icon Open your registry and delete the value named 'IsShortCut' from the keys [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\lnkfile], [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\piffile] and [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\InternetShortcut] so maybe you could check those keys more @ http://www.winguides.com/registry/display.php/75/

so whatz stored in the system volume folder ? mine is full of 520MB of stuff. i have disabled system restore.

excellent. i did all the file updates and it worked. thanx alot

ok, but what if there are 3 I86 folders on the CD ?

Slipstreaming SP1/2 into my multboot XPCD ? can this be done ? can someone please post a link or guide ? thanks

Firefox Web Browser? Why do I want this? YOU DON'T ! why ? well, is it not obvious that using FF quickly transforms a person into a bigoted, unthinking moron ? Hark ! i hear the crash of fragile egos. RE:Maxthon. IT'S a COMPLETE browser straight from installation. Not some half-baked JOKE that requires 1000 "extensions" to make it run.

1. i never advised that persons should abandon FF. use what u like. what do i care ? 2. FF is great - for the ignorant who don't know how to run Windows XP with Maxthon and NOT get spywared.

gee, i'd rather use Opera than FF - and that's a slow, UGLY, JOKE too.

FF is SSSSSSSLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWW a browser for snails and sloths. renders many webpages like an amateur's Cubist oil painting...fractured unprofessionalism. i am not trying to make any "points". this is my opinion. i am entitled to it.

FF is U.G.L.Y it could make an onion cry ! itz UGLY ........................................ use Maxthon like me

you overclocking your cpu ?

from eldergeek>>> The Role of the F5 Key and Shutdown Problems When I first put this page together I meant to include this information. Unfortunately it totally slipped my mind. One of the hazards of being an Elder(ly) Geek, but better late than never. Thanks to reader Glen M. for jogging my memory. When XP is first installed it tries to determine what type of BIOS is available on the computer. Newer systems have what is known as Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) capability. Unfortunately, XP doesn't always recognize a computer BIOS is ACPI capable and doesn't install the support for ACPI. Even more unfortunate is the fact that if ACPI support isn't determined at the initial install it's virtually impossible to correct this at a later time short of reinstalling XP over the top of the previous XP installation. To do so requires changing the Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL). The chances of successfully changing a HAL after XP has been installed is pretty close to zilch. Once you drop the CD in the tray and fire up the computer to install XP, the first thing you'll see at the bottom of the screen is the option to press F6 if you need to install a SCSI or RAID controller. Don't press F6. Press F5 instead. This will take you to a separate menu of Hardware Abstraction Layer's where you can choose an appropriate HAL that supports ACPI. The choices will be: ACPI Multiprocessor PC ACPI Uniprocessor PC Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC Compaq SystemPro Multiprocessor or 100% Compatible PC MPS Uniprocessor PC MPS Multiprocessor PC Standard PC Standard PC with C-Step i486 Other In the majority of installations the 'Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC' HAL is the one you will want to use. A few cautions are also in order: Obtain and install the latest BIOS for your motherboard before you begin the XP installation. Equally as important as using the proper HAL on ACPI capable systems, is NOT using it on systems that are not ACPI compatible. The install may complete but the system will almost surely fail to start when it reboots. There are situations where it is definitely not desirable to use an ACPI HAL even if it is supported by the BIOS. This predominately applies to servers, but to ensure that an ACPI HAL will not be used or automatically detected and used, press F7 instead of F5 as discussed previously. Considering the number of problems that users have with systems not shutting down completely I wonder why this feature is not prominently mentioned and documented. It could save many headaches, but now you know. A good piece of knowledge to have tucked away for your next XP install. As a final note, to determine if your computer was detected as being ACPI enabled: Right click My Computer then click Properties > Hardware > Device Manager. Expand the entry called Computer. If the entry is 'Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC' you're all set. If it says 'Standard PC' the computer BIOS was not detected as being ACPI capable.

no problem with mce 2k5 on 2 systems i have with ht intels. mce 2005 is just xp pro+sp2 with extras. when you install, press f5 instead of f6, then choose your cpu/machine setup.

odd. windows never reinstalls the screensavers when i delete the files in dllcache first. how can it ?

i think FF is ugly and slow

thankz. what i was trying to do was simple, but i though irfanview would allow it ,but no !. anyway, mspaint works brilliant ! see >

don't exactly know what you are mean by 'PLAYABLE'. it can very much depend on the type of image/bin file you have . some guides @ http://www.network54.com/Forum/336827

not sure what you're after. i do know that the below reg file will change defaults systems fonts to tahoma. maybe you can work something out from it ? Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontSubstitutes] "Helv"="Tahoma" "Helvetica"="Tahoma" "MS Shell Dlg 2"="Tahoma" "MS Sans Serif"="Tahoma" "Microsoft Sans Serif"="Tahoma" "Sans Serif"="Tahoma" "MS Shell Dlg"="Tahoma"

what i am trying to do is load an image into ANY image program and then draw on it or mark out a section...like this i tried photofiltre but i cannot figure it out. anyone with ideas and EASY instructions please reply. thanx
