Thanks for your response marioz988, but there's no ongoing problem. As I said in my first post, it only took a reboot to get Windows back to...
Every now and then, usually when Windows hasn't kept up with my impatient clicking, everything disappears from my XPPSP3 desktop. This is usually...
Google, as always, is my first port of call. My second is WindowsBBS. Telling me to search elsewhere isn't really helpful. It's like saying,...
I'm confused. How widespread are ISPs that require this protocol? I mean, I've seen this WAN Miniport PPPOE thingy on many laptops over the years...
Hi all. Working on a Vista laptop (Acer 4520) that has a facility labeled as above. My guess is that it's a kind of inbuilt broadband modem. In...
Thanks very much PeteC. That's a very useful little app, it'll be added to my 'must-have' collection :-)

An XP Pro SP3 machine has lost its Windows games folder, including Spider Solitaire, Minesweeper, Freecell etc etc. I've tried the recommended...
Yes, it's a nuisance, isn't it? I've noticed the changed color in other areas, too. I use EditPad Lite instead of Notepad and the new color...
Thanks JohnB. Actually, I'd tried that but it didn't have any effect. Perhaps I needed to reboot before it'll 'take'. I'll try again when I'm...
I'm asking this question here rather than in 'Other>Software'' because I think that there's a Windows setting involved.(XPPSP3) Question: In...
Direct from the HDD, Mattman.
Thanks ephemarial. The E6600 Core Duo CPU seems to be functioning OK, temp is around 50c according to Asus 'Probe', which is well within specs....
Thanks ephemarial, that's kinda what I thought. Thing is, I've been running a Powercolor Radeon HD3850 (AGP) and it'll play Oblivion OK with...
