  1. Does it look like this? Do you have this problem with both the Quick Reply (the reply at the bottom of a thread page) and also the regular Reply (or the More Reply Options button)? There is a button that makes the toolbar turn into that. It looks like a gear. The purpose of that button, I do not know. Anyways, if you click it, maybe the labels show up. I found the gear picture: Also, speaking of the labels. The GUI uses that method of having all the images in one physical PNG file and using coordinates to determine which to display. I do not know the name of this method as I've never learned it! But whatever this method is, maybe it is not supported by your browser as it is a fairly recent "development" I've seen on Websites. The images for the Reply Editor are used from one of these links: http://www.msfn.org/board/public/js/3rd_party/ckeditor/skins/ips/icons.png http://www.msfn.org/board/public/style_images/shift/editor/icons.png
  2. Not to send the guy on a wild goose chase.... WAIK term stopped at Windows 7 SP1. Windows 8 has one called this: Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (ADK) for Windows® 8 I personally prefer the WAIK, I think the ADK adds a bunch of stuff into the bundle that I wouldn't ever use.
  3. I missed it at first. OP put the software name in a thread tag: Paragon Partition Manager 12.
  4. Well if you take a look at our users, OS death date means nothing. Windows 98 and 2000 are still going strong here!
  5. That picture hurts my eyes. Also reminds me of the kind of things I could create with whatever bloatware came with the Windows 95 on my old Packard Bell.
  6. What exactly do you mean by this? If we are using the same words, I see editing controls when I create a new topic.
  7. I know what you are talking about. On some OSes, if I am working with a mounted image, *sometimes* it won't let me change some files. I have attributed this to Windows being "dumb" and treating any folder called System32 to be the one of the booted OS. But I rarely do any work using a Desktop OS (where this seems to happen most) and never have a problem modifying an image from a Server OS.
  8. You are using the built-in Microsoft driver. I think even on Windows 8, the Intel drivers do not install. I have heard some complaints of USB3 not working as expected (speed related) using the built-in drivers. I know the actual driver file names you need for this (iusb3xhc.inf and iusb3hub.inf) but not specifically which package (there are 2 different ones with the release of the 8 boards).
  9. There are actually 2 images in my test post. However, I have heard others say they cannot see that image on other forums. Its a PNG file (not sure if that matters) and the link to it is here: http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k63/Tripredacus/sigs/GumballWatterson_avatar_zps1df3bcaf.png
  10. View New Content operates within the section you are currently located in. If you do this from your profile (being in the user section) you see new users. If you use it on the forum index (the topic section) you see new topic/replies. I'm not certain that it is a bug. In fact, all the IP.Boards I visit do this same thing, for example Reboot.pro and Tformers.com.
  11. Probably. Windows protection would likely prevent you from replacing some of those files after the fact, or be restore from the store after a reboot.
  12. Server 2012 R2 Essentials Preview has this problem too. EDIT: removed URL, its in the Partner portion of MS Answers which I'm not sure everyone can get to.
  13. Oh yeah, sorry about this topic. I had crafted an awesome response to this but it was on a day that the database got rolled back and I forgot which topic it was. I had suggested that you import a NIC configuration with netsh, and have the configuration be an invalid static IP address.
  14. Ok well I will say then that it can and does happen. Apparently not 100% of the time. The reason being is that IE10 doesn't have a Welcome Page. So just so you know that you could run into this problem at some point. BUT I also learned something new! It is only deprecated on Windows 8, but doesn't throw an error on Windows 7. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff716441.aspx
  15. I'm not sure it is a Windows 7 thing, but I never use Window's built in zip compatibility. But when I had, it usually has a check box at the end to open the contents, but it doesn't run anything automatically.
  16. For the "friends online" widget at the top, is it possible to change the background color of the number bubble? It being red makes me think there's a problem, like I got a PM or there is a report. Maybe it can be green or something?
  17. The article says it is a modified F-4 Phantom. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F-4_Phantom Of course, even the military's drones aren't particularly small, but they are smaller than the F-4 at least.
  18. I'm making this post to demonstrate the new function to our users, since most cannot see posts in the test forum. The new align codes allow to wrap text around an image when making a post. Here is a quick example: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.

  19. Especially IE10. For example if you have IE10 in your image and use an answerfile that has DisableWelcomePage, you will get an error during install.
  20. Many years ago, I once wrote a driver that allowed Iomega's backup software to see the sound card as a tape drive. It did work but trying to backup files to the soundcard ended up with a BSOD.
  21. For the longest time I always ignored these types of programs because, like you, I had always older boards that didn't seem to give me any sort of readings. I only had one of these already, the GPU-Z from when my old video card was failing. I was surprised when opening it that it showed me the video card temperature which was why I went to find the other one. My only complaint is that it doesn't pick up the fan speeds, but that is probably because most of them run off the PSU. I will have to check again later to see if any of them are actually connected to the board. NO. jaclaz Thanks then that is good to know. Also on a side note, thinking about that airflow animation and what Charlotte said before... I think I can made some stride in increasing airflow to the area where the intake that blows over the hard drives is.
  22. I'm only wondering because if I replace both drives, going from IDE to SATA, Windows could potentially change the drive letters couldn't it? Even if I did clone the IDE drive to SATA and everything would be the same, Windows still would know it was a new disk and enumerate it that first time...
  23. Recently gave one (two?) up to recycle for $5USD each. And a 386.Some people end up all nostalgia and want to go back. There's just something about using old software on small CRT monitors with less colors, or maybe a purple blob in the corner of your screen. DOS4GW errors, and taking an hour to install something from your 2X CD drive.
  24. Well we aren't so bad yet on the game system front. I do not want to be all doom and gloom regarding how people just expect their new thng to stop working in 10 years because the server will get pulled. If the product is successful enough, their devs can certainly make it so you can keep using it if you want. And the computer thing in business, this is largely due to companies still not understanding how to be using computers. By that I mean that people who are not involved in using the products, or who are not technically inclined are the ones who make the decisions. They often wait until the last possible moment to upgrade and always spend large amounts of time and money to make things work on the new platform. Most computer people would tell you that you should be looking at the new technology right away and plan for a transitional period. Do you know how many companies are still using extremely old databases that they just can't justify the costs involved with upgrading them? In the health care industry, many of the (old) mainstay companies still need to use terminal emulators because their customer database is in a 20+ year old mainframe system. I worked with one company awhile back that had to go to XP in 2004 (They were still using NT4 Workstation) and the biggest problem they were faces with was none of the terminal emulators they had access to worked with Windows XP! But maybe these companies are in the same mindset we are in, we are "old thinking" and go by the idea that if it works, why change it? Well the world is changing around us.... As far as the USB thing, I think at the time Firewire was still a popular new thing it was only really competing with USB 1.1. We already know that Firewire wasn't really something to use as an input device connection replacement because it was kind of a waste. USB was definately fine for that. I think USB 2.0 pretty much killed firewire... But they still make computers with Firewire ports so there must be some use for it today. Maybe what MY complaint about USB is.... Why do companies still need serial ports? Many companies that work in the POS channel still (absolutely) require hardware with serial connections. I understand that a lot of equipment in the field may be older and have serial connectors, but why hasn't USB replaced those devices yet?
  25. Welcome to the MSFN!
