Well, now I feel quite stupid. After finding the right search terms on Google, I came across this:

However embarrassing it is to put this, it's...

After an incredible amount of odd behavior from my computer, I had no choice but to reformat the thing yet again. Every time I do so, it only starts bugging up after another 6 months, presumably...

Thank you so much! :) I feel much better now. I know it's over a year away, but I tend to worry about things well in advance.

The reason why I preferred an upgrade was because I thought it might...

I don't have a Windows 2000 computer, but allow me to explain why I would want information on upgrading one.

Vista has been the source of a great deal of worry for me over the past few months. I...

Hmm, but wouldn't this disable auto-login for the main account? Is there a way afterward to delete the temporary account and turn it back on? If so, this would work great.

I have a folder stored on my main computer. The computer main computer is a Linux computer, but it's using Samba to connect to the network. I have a new laptop that I want to accessthis folder with...

I have one account on my new computer, which is currently labeled "Best Buy". I want to rename this to "Kamex", including the folder in Documents and Settings. I thought I'd ask how to do this to be...

I have Linux on my computer as well, but this concerns both versions of Windows I have. They both share the first of my two hard disks, with the first partition being a 10gb FAT32 (with Microsoft...

I too have used Window Blinds. I actually bought a year's subcription to Object Desktop and used all of that year.

I really did like the Object Desktop suite, but there were problems with it....

In my opinion, an unwanted program is not only an issue because of hard disk space, it's an issue because of clutter. I personally dislike having programs I don't use, and removing shortcuts doesn't...

Hmm, is it possible this problem could be hardware related? If it's doing it in the setup too...

Can anyone verify this information? I'm deeply concerned about this because I defragment my Windows XP partition weekly to avoid waiting a long time later. I have several friends who are also doing...

I triple-boot Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition, Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 2, and SUSE Linux 9.3 Professional.

For those that don't know, Linux has special user...

Today, my brother Scott and I were able to figure out the problem. When the hard drives switched places, XP was able to load fine. I then killed every partition on what had just become hard drive 2,...

Well, I wanted this setup because I didn't want to clutter the two operating system's programs together. The only two things I want to share are my Firefox bookmarks and Thunderbird profile, which...

I've been trying to get a triple-boot set up with Windows 98, Windows XP, and SuSE Linux 9.1 Professional. Here is the setup I had BEFORHAND:

Hard Drive 1:
- Partition 1, FAT32, 80gb, Microsoft...

My apologies. Here, lemme show you a screenshot (http://theelectricuniverse.com/hostedimages/whatimtalkingabout.jpg).

I did this by right-clicking on the taskbar and selecting toolbars > address...

I long time ago when I used IE, I had the address bar toolbar on my taskbar. I found it very helpful for getting to pages quickly. Eventually, I got rid of it because even in 1280 x 1024, it took up...

Yes, but what's the command for starting 98 in MS-dos mode using boot.ini? I want to be able to pick weither to start 98 in MS-dos or graphical mode with different boot options.

I like it better to have names as specific as possible. It ends up being better looking that way. True, shorter names take up less space, but the words "Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition" don't even...

I have Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 2 and Windows 98 Second Edition on my computer. When I start my computer up, I am asked if I want to start either "Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition", or...

I turned it off, but now I have a red shield system tray icon warning me that they should be turned on. It clutters up the tray and keeps making stupid speech ballons every five minutes, minimizing...

I prefer to update my computer by myself, without automatic updates bugging me all the time. In SP1, I was able to turn them off, but now it's very difficult. Whenever I manage to turn it off, I get...

Does anyone know what could be causing this? My Dad says the program will still run afterward, but the error worries him. He's had the problem for about two weeks now.

He's using Windows XP...

I must have not explained it correctly, sorry. ATI's Linux drivers suck...in fact they're so terrible that its not even possible to compile games when using them. I cannot afford to purchase an...

As far as I know, Federa does not use RPMs, nor do any of the other free distros out there. The ATI installer is only available as an RPM, and since at the time I believed that these drivers would...

A good while ago (maybe 7 months), I discovered Linux. I was very happy with it, and I liked all of its features, but in the end, I could not get programs to install. Every program I compiled gave me...

I have been trying to ignore the problem for a while, but I can't stand it anymore. I have a Dell Dimension 8200. I am using a Turtle Beach Montego II I got out of my Mom's older Dell Dimension XPS...

I have always had trouble with my various computer controllers. What seems to happen to them within a few months is that the control sticks suddenly become completely messed up. And I don't mean it...

Try temporarily disconnecting your keyboard.

The problem is that many programs still open things with IE regardless of your default browser.

It's a shame its not possible, oh well.

Is it possible to move IE to something other than c:\program files\internet explorer? I want to use that space to put a Firefox installation so that applications trying to open IE will open Firefox...

Well, I had been trying to get DOS games to work long before I discovered the majority of them I'm using now. A Doom TC I liked to play was not running on my new computer, and I tried for 3 straight...

Before attempting to install DOS, I tried to get Windows 98 working. It simply doesn't go because I have too much ram in my computer (1gb). I found a site that told me a line to put in an ini file to...

The reason I ask is that I'm using FAT16 to dual-boot with IBM DOS 5.0. It's the only way I can play the older games. Even if FAT16 is no longer supported by Longhorn, I can still use DOS on my...

Does anyone know if Windows Longhorn will be able to read FAT16 partitions like Windows XP, or is it too early to tell?

I use GAIM and have no use for Windows Messenger. I have managed to make it hidden so that it at least does not clutter up my system tray, but it still runs in the background, which annoys me to no...

Dwoopies! Thanks for pointing that out. :p

Yea, you'll want to back up your data before you do this, because this creates a new partition, all data on the old partitions will be gone. The data on...

If I am currect, only one hard drive is split up?

When you set up XP, during one of the steps, it says "To Delete the Selected Partition, Press D" or something of that nature. You can use this to...

I've seen some stuff on the internet about doing this. They say it's much faster for your computer to do this, but I simply want to try it for learning purposes.

What I would like is some...
