  1. while logged on to the network, you may have mapped drives, and office may be saving some profile settings on a network drive. Also if you have the mapped drives, when you try and open a document it will be slow because windows is trying to find those mapped drives. try unmapping your drives it you have them
  2. Thanks for the Heads up on the update.
  3. the only way you are going to be able to do it is to boot with a dos diskette and access the ntfs partition and then delete them in dos mode. I have seen this time and time again and that is the way I do it. I have a bootable cd and a program called ntfs professional and I am able to get rid of all the folders just fine that way.
  4. I will run fine, my sons computer is a PIII 500 with 256mb ram. Works well, now he got a little older and wanted to do some games, so I upgraded the memory to 512MB and it rocks for him.
  5. also when you are in d: drive veiw your items in details mode and then right click on the say Artist listing and then you can disable the items you do not want it to display, like Artist, Album Title, Year, Track number, duration, and then you could go futher by selection More... Hope this is what you are talking about.
  6. cant you just right click on my documents and do properties and change the path there, one you change the path it will ask you if you want to move the documents to the new location.
  7. Probably a driver like Zxian said, but you could also try a registry cleaner like Registry Mechanic to get rid of invalid enteries in you registry.
  8. maybe you could try and download the windows installer KB898461 manually and reinstall that installer and then try to update the rest of them.
  9. that would not work, if you read the warning, it tells you not to connect them this way. Also taking them apart and hooking them in a series is a bad idea, because the circits that come with the ups will not be able to handle the extra load of the other batteries and hence cause a fire. If you have the one ups, install the monitoring software and tell it to turn off the computer when electricity fails and put the computer back on when the lights come back on.
  10. Norton Corp Ed. will do the trick too. Note: Before I make an image of a computer using norton I do some cleanup first. Delete all temp files, and internet temp files. Empty Recycle been. Turn off system restore, (this will delete your restore points) which may have gigs worth of backups, then reboot to dos mode and delete the hybernation file and the pagefile which will free up some space. I can get an xp install backed up to about 3 gigs after doing these steps.
  11. sounds like that netfinity should be able to boot from CD, check the Bios to make sure you have that option enabled so that you can do the install from the cd without using the floppies. Also are you sure your install cd is bootable.
  12. you could try booting in safe mode and doing a scan from there.
  13. Try right clicking on the file and go to properties, then go to the Compatibility Tab and have it run in compatibility mode. See if that helps you.
  14. no they do not, what software are you using to make your backup copy. You could try using magiciso to make an iso image first, then use the same program to burn the cd from the iso image you created. As long as it is for a backup copy of the CD.
  15. you have taken the right steps as stated. you could also try Conversions Plus to convert your document.
  16. Thats intresting never heard of this technique, but hey if it works great, Quesiton though, what about when freezing you HD in a freezer bag, like you say, you take it out and plug it in to your ide slot, It is going to start generating heat, so what about the condensation, it is water, does it not fry your electronics.
  17. just download the driver for the laptop manufacture, Toshiba you mentioned, go there and enter you model number and get the drive from them
  18. sometimes this happens because when outlook is downloading the mail, for some reason or another, it looses connection with the mail provider as it is download the emails so it nevers gets the reply from you client that the mail was already downloaded and recieved so it will redownload all the mail until it gets that notificaiton that it has been recieved. It is by design that this happens, if in fact this was your case.
  19. intresting reading, also I got to download the latest version of Process explorer.
