  1. Which of the four did you install? And why?
  2. Unplug the power overnight to fully drain all capacitors. Then try with a different data cable.
  3. I do have an NT4 install disk but have never used it. Hopefully saving custom folder settings is possible. I currently use Tweak UI 1.33 and TweakAll 1.2.3 on 98 and SE. The 98 options I added for any post-NT4 users who might stumble upon this page.
  4. 68.14.5b just posted an hour ago.
  5. > I don't think it is possible to write (in a short time) all the parameters that you would have to change to get a more secure and private browser. How about some, then? > Also the settings of uBlock Origin are different in my Edge than in Firefox. Let's start with Thorium settings first.
  6. Tweak UI: Explorer > Save Explorer window settings TweakAll: More Explorer Options > Save Explorer Settings In 98: Any Explorer window > View > Folder Options > View. Or Start Menu > Settings > Folder Options > View
  7. So for Thorium on XP, what default settings should I be changing?
  8. In Windows, right-click on the shortcut you use to launch the game and edit its Properties: Advanced->MS-DOS mode->Specify a new MS-DOS configuration->Configuration....
  9. If running the DOS game inside Windows, try [386Enh] LocalLoadHigh=1 in System.ini instead of the DOS LOADHIGH and UMB methods.
  10. For DOS games, use a slimmer boot sequence. Or LOADHIGH some things into upper memory.
  11. Use a process viewer to see if those are the ones PD uses.
  12. If the other laptop that didn't have the boot delay does have all these recent VC++ runtimes, I'd say "yes". In order to run correctly, Panda Dome must need a more recent version of the runtimes than was previously installed. The installer should be checking for and reporting the deficiency instead of allowing it to behave so poorly.
  13. I was hoping to see evidence that the service would go to sleep at launch if offline. Go into the app and look for ways to disable as many scans and downloads as possible, especially system scans at launch. Disable it as much as possible without actually uninstalling it. Use Dr. Watson and other process viewers right after boot to determine what drivers and services have been using lots of CPU time since boot.
  14. Probably online. The laptop maybe not. Power off your router so you know they are all offline, then recompare boot times.
  15. It's cloud-based. It also downloads News and Ads by default. Are you online or offline when experiencing delays?
  16. From the printer's control panel with only power connected? Then the printer needs servicing. Go to HP's support site and look for printer diagnostic software or info on how to interpret the alarm codes.
  17. Agreed. Possibly made or refurbished with recycled parts.
  18. Actually, I did. It's a slightly different implementation of the reference design, but still exactly what it claims to be on the box.
  19. Fake of what? Looks like a no-name clone of the ATI reference design. "Accelerate" LOL
  20. For you? In the current configuration? (I have lots of second-hand equipment and your description makes it sound to me like maybe you just acquired this printer from someone making claims.) Test the printer by reconnecting it in the last working configuration. Printers have lots of parts including capacitors. Something may have gone bad. Connect only power and check the manual for how to do self-diagnostics and print a test page. If this fails, recycle and replace. Report back if successful.
  21. Options: no definition, stub definition, forward: Leave it blank and hope it doesn't get called. Determine a stub definition such as "z4" by disassembling the ordinal function. Many "unnamed" api's have names unofficially documented from official debug info.
  22. Use the USB ports for external audio and networking. Or try Linux. If that sees all devices, you can run Windows in a VM.
  23. ScanDisk can check files for duplicate names. If ScanDisk doesn't like it, it's not safe. Otherwise, it should be okay if the drive is only accessed by Windows.
