I'm building a very complex Lcars theme for windows 7 (star trek computer) I'm replacing the taskbar with circle dock http://circledock.wikidot.com/ Now my qeustion is is there a way if i click a button in the designed circle bar that also the wallpaper chance with it ? simply explained if i click in the start button on for instance on configration can i let the desktop wall paper change on the moment my configuration screen opens ?

As far as i could see when i had it open the video chip is mounted on the motherboard and it use shared memory although it's called dedicated memory. I have run memtest and the memory checked out good. Video card is giving a directdraw error but that is not strange because i disable it. Thx for the help though

Oke i know and read and watched the youtube clip of the cooling and the Nvidia combo But there is hope for this laptop it's a Acer Aspire 9300 Amd Turion 64 clocked at 1.61 Ghz 2 G of Ram Nvidia Gforce Go 7600 128 MB Windows XP Sp3 Now it has the following trouble when i enable the video card it gives a memdump (BSOD) or just stripes in different colors even in the bios it give strange letters as if i'm watching the matrix When i disable the videocard i get in windows as if i have dead pixels in my screen but they are in differnt colors. During start up i get stripes in the acer logo (cracks) Is there a way to solve this ? Things i treid myself already Open the laptop and cleaned it very wel cooling and everything (geezz so many screws and nasty tricks to provent people from opening it) Format and install XP, treid driver but durin bios strips, windows logo wierd colors in the logo, windows itself strips then black screen. Disable videocard now i'm working on it but it's as i have dead pixels sometimes a lot sometimes non. Any advise would be great but i fear the answer

I was wondering because at the start of vlite you have the choise wich version you want to adjust. What if i want to make a all in one DVD from windows 7 with slipstreamed update's do i have to update each version of windows 7 seperate ? ***oops found it already so ones again asked a stupid question *****

Found it what was wrong Patiance i'm used to installing XP and that goes a lot faster Thx for the help

During install it keeps on hanging in different parts when unpacking. I'm doing a clean install of windows vista home basic but everytime when it starts to unpack the files it hangs. sometimes at 1% sometimes at 3% or 39% what can i do to chance that It's a 2ghz pentium 160 GB Hdd 768 MB mem (yeah i know at least 1 Ghz mem, that's why i install vista homebasic) Thx for the help infront.

You better can't remove that cause it's a backup from your windows XP. So if you delete it there is no way of going back P.S You could read it during the install of Vista (setup of vista)

I'll second that, that is one awesome desktop.. do you have a link for us Mr Spock? Wincustomize Dreamland Here you are one dreamland to go The wallpaper is in a seprat link you can find on the same page. For the transparent toolbar you need indeed windowblinds 5.0 for the icons i used iconpackager Globe icons

I just have to post mine Sometimes i'm just dreaming away, thru the window Clean little bit busy

Little update : Phew lucky me i found with my favoriet computershop (better said the seller) found i new Mobo for me and it's working like a charm again Now i checked out the broken motherboard (by doing a electronic mesurment) and indeed there where some Electrolytic Capacitors broken. So i i hope i can find those Electrolytic Capacitors and build a extra comp with it, stil got a celeron 2.4 and some memory so who knows Thanx for all the Help

@ Ken J I have have studied electronics so replacing 1 of them would be no trouble but there isn't 1 Electrolytic Capacitors that is looking strange The board has no jumpers for the cpu speed and it have been running for more then 3 years without any trouble. Also i did no overclocking, cause like you said it can give the most strange behavior. I think it's the powersupply i gonna chance the one now in the computer and see if it gonna chance something. Still ofcourse i checked out the log files of WinXP and now SuSe but i can't see any strange things in it. By the way a picture of the motherboard

@ ssmokee If i do a dos based burn in test (from the techie's boot CD) it keeps on running without any trouble But before i formated my HDD i did a burn in test with sisoft sandra and indeed it hang after a short while. Now a question is the PSU al handed by the Voltage regalator or is there also a part done by the motherboard ? It's easy to chance the Voltage regulator but not the the Motherboard Also have any one experince with the brand chaintech By the way thanx for the replay's

@ m3n70r I formated my HDD cause of the fact that my windows XP was constanly hanging (couldend move the mouse even on keyboard was no reaction ctrl+alt+del) only a reboot would work then after the reboot it sometimes hang in the startup of windows and most of the times after a few minutes. So i cleaned lowformat the HDD with Maxblast from the maxtor site, even put my MBR all at zero's so it's totaly clean still the problm remain. I checked up on the GRUB Bootloader error ofcourse and it had to do indead with the MBR. Now i have again a total clean HDD and i gonna try again to install SuSe 10.0, but i'm not sure what it's gonna do because i have treid a other HDD already and then the same problem i wasn't able to install XP. But because i was able to install SuSe i will keep it with SuSe for this moment. Still the strange part of it all is I have a CD (techiez toolkit@hiren's bootcd) with all kind of hardware test's (dos based booted from CD) and no mather what test i do, no mather how i format (full low format maxblast take's a long time about 24 hours on a 200G HDD) it keeps on running. But as soon i start to put a OS on it it gets that strang behavior. P.S Little Update Working now from out of Suse 10.0 on the trouble computer. Even in linux it hangs (no reaction from keyboard nor the mouse only a reboot then it works again) I chanced the GRUB bootloader to the LILO bootloader and it restart without any trouble. So the trouble still remain, but at least i have a OS on this computer. So i'm still open for advice where to look But please remeber i'm a BIG noob on linux

@Misha the PSU works fine i think because when i run Maxblast and did a lowformat it kept on running all the time. (did the full (long version) It has no chipset fan only a CPU fan and that is working fine i cleanded it and i got the site pannels of cause i thought that it was a heat problem @LLXX Did a bios upgrade already with no luck Little update i was able to put Suse 8.2 on it and instead of the GRUB bootloader i use the LILO boot. But now i try to put SuSe 10.0 on it and it keeps hanging again during the installation. I'm really don't have a clue anymore what it can be At least thanx for the tips i hope somebody will come up with the golden tip

Little update After removing all the partions i was able to install linux SuSe 10.0 but when i treid to reboot i got a error in the GRUB bootloader with the code 16. @tarquel What do you mean with PSU ? Memory brand is twinmos but i have check that with memtest388 (if i have the name correct) and no errors with that

There is a very strange thing with my computer. I had the problem that my windows XP constantly started to hang, so i formated my hardisk and treid to install windows XP again, but now i'm not even able to install windows XP back again. It's a pentium 4 2GHZ HDD Maxtor 200G Motherboard is a chaintech CT-9BJF Videocard ATI 9200A Soundcard Creative live 5.1 Memory 512 MB Somehow i can't install windows XP or Linux SUSE 8.1 Or 8.2, but i can install windows 98SE With Linux it don't want to boot after the install Not with the Lilo kernel or not with the Grub kernel. With the windows XP install it hangs during the install not even ctrl+alt+del works Windows PE is working no mather wich one i use Things i did to try to solve. Hdd test gave no errors and after a lowformat things still remain the same. (used the one from the Maxtor site itself) Memtest gave no errors even after 10 runs. CPU test gave no errors even after a burn in test of 30 minutes. Updated the bios still the problem remain. Did a videocard test still the problem remain. Did a CMOS reset and still problem remain. Put in a extra Hdd disk still problem remain. Chanced the videocard still the problem remain. Dismanteld the whole computer and put it together again still the problem remain. Renew the MBR of the HDD still the problem remain. Treid a other chip still problem remains Still the strange part is that i can install windows 98SE and it works with no hanging or what so ever. I would expect that i did every hardware test possible that somehow there would come up some kind of error. Even treid different window XP CD's but constanly i get the same problem. The problem is also that i can't find a new motherboard that good inof for a pentium 4 2 GHZ and for sure i don't want to buy a second hand cause big chance i buy the trouble of somebody else. And i'm not rich inof to just buy a new computer Have anyone a idea what i can check out or what it could be ? Any help would really be apriciatted

I use my main computer for downloading and sharing, and because i bhought a cheap router it can't handle a lot of conections. It start to hang when i have to many incomming connections. I checked my computer on virusses, also on spyware but nothing showed up. So it's really strange.

I got over here 2 computers both working on WinXP The first computer has 2 networking cards 1 is conected to the internet and the second nic contected to my router is conecting the second computer. It's in principale working fine. Although when i have done a clean install of windows when i want to transfer 1 file to the other computer it goes very fast about 700 mb in 4 min. But lately the same file size take's around 25 min. I chanced both nics speed to a 100 MB and that didn't help When i chance the cables and internet to the other nic and the networking to the other it is again transfering very fast while the nic speed is standing at auto detect, but after a day or 2 it's transfering very slow again What can it be that the transfering of files suddenly get so slow ? any advice will be very apriciated

I try to repair a compaq presario 1700 laptop with the following error ASPI Manager for USB mass storage Version 2.15 © copyright Panasonic Communications Co., Ltd 2000-2003 Controller :00-07-2 VID=8086h PID=7112h (0000h-0000h) UHCI : I/O=1060H-107Fh Error : Target USB device not found. There is windows 98se on. But i can't boot from DVD-rom and i can't boot from the HDD cause of this error is there any one who knows how i can solve this I have treid to install the Usb driver thru dos (can boot from floppy) but that doesn't run in Dos mode Thx infront

The second new HD that i treid was a IDE but the same error was still there it just hangt in the blue screen licance screen. so the basic installation it want to do but it's the part where it actually start to unpack and really install Win XP. Bios update i can try cause i believe i flush every buffer that maybe full empty then.

Update: Finnely i got the chance to see that costumer his computer again. Things i treid 1. mem86 5 times run like a charm no errors. 2. Did a maxblast test (It's a Maxtor HD) it didn't want to start up with Caldara-Dos got a lot of weird fonts (not letters or anything readable) 3. Put in a new HD same error hangt at the Setup. 4. Did a motherboard mem test no errors. 5. let Microscope PC dignostics (Only bios test program that wanted to run) test the rest of the bios and it checked out oke. 6. treid other bios check programs but a lot gave the message divided buffer overflow or buffer overflow. 7. Reset the CMOS no luck error still there. What can it be Is it possible that they put in some kind of protection, then still remain for me why was i able to install Win2K then. And why can't i install Win XP home back what have alway's been on that computer. Only thing that's in a PCI slot is the network card Video card is on AGP, sound card is on board I treid a Windows XP cd which i'm sure of have no errors. for now i'm out of options

Yes finnely fixed it It's a mather of fixing the IPs thru the router. The main computer where the ISP is on have to have a shared internet conection, when you do that it give the second Nic IP 192.168.0.1 that IP nr you also have to give it in to the router. Then it's just a mather of apionting the other computers with there own I.P and that's it. Just plugin the UTP cable's to the Lan gate's and it work like a charm, no falling away of the DNS or anything. Hope this help other people who might have the same prob, or having trouble with there router which can't handle to much connections.

Thx for the page but it isn't help me. I have treid the following. 1e nic is the ISP on 2e nic treid that without any IP number or anything just enable internet sharing on the first nic and put it in my Wan poort of my router that's not working 2e nic gave it IP 192.168.0.1 connect the cable into the lan poort (router itself use 192.168.123.254) no gatway not working and even my orginal internet conection droops dead. 2e nic disable internet sharing on first nic use IP 192.168.0.1 gateway router IP not working and internet conection droop dead. Is there any one who can help me step by step how to conect my router to my second nic and i can keep my ISP on the first nic. And i'm able to share folders thru the router network and i'm able to connect more computers if needed and if possible also use the internet on the other computers that are connected to the router.

I have a U.S Robotics USR8003 router. It has the following problem, when ever there are to many conections (P2P) going thru it it starts to lock up. Already treid to contact U.S Robotics, but they never really understood it cause they kept on talking about hooking up more computers then 4 and that, that was possible, explainded it over and over and now not getting any answer at all. Also read on the net already that this problem exsist with this router. so now i still can't go on to the net with both my computers or share file's between the both of them. (don't want to switch cable's constanly) Now i have on my computer where my i-net conection is a second NIC, so i was wondering of i could use my second NIC to connect both computers thru the router. Then i can hook up more computers if needed, and also i the file transfer goes much faster then just linking the computers thru a crossed UTP cable. So then i can use 1 Computer for P2P and i still have a network over the second NIC.
