    - Memory Upgrade Performance Question I am currently on a DELL (1GH) with 256Meg. Could I expect a dramatic increase in performance if I upgrade to 1Gig Memory? I know its sketchy but if anyone has done it they would know. Thanks Bob PS By Dramatic I mean my current booting takes 2-3 minutes. Tag: And a new AdAware update Tag: 288390

    - WinXP - or not? At the last computer show I was ready to get my WinXP CD, when someone next to me mentioned, that with all Windows Systems, except 'Win2000', there would be a refusal to reinstall in case of a crash. For that specific reason the Europeans (Germans) adopted the free Linux System instead and, happily so. Does this reflect reality? I already have the CD for the Linux System, to be installed on a single and seperate 80GB HD. Would or should I want more? Harry. Tag: And a new AdAware update Tag: 288368

    - Problems After Running Defrag My laptop has been locking up after internet usage during shutdown. I finally decided to run defrag over the weekend. I have owned the laptop since 2001 and never ran defrag b-4 this past weekend. It took approx 1 hour for defrag to complete. Now when I open internet and try to type in e-mail certain letters such as D, F and G executes commands as if you were hitting control and then letter (ex. ctrl B=Bold). I cannot type because when I type the letter, the keyboard executes certain commands. I thought it was concentrated only in aol internet but then tried to type in Word and the same thing happened. Has anyone else experienced this problem? If so what did you do to fix the problem. Comments are welcome. Please HELP! LA Tag: And a new AdAware update Tag: 288277

    - USB Mass Storage Device Hello, I'm experiencing the following problem: Scandisk reports the presence of mismatched FATs on a freshly formatted external USB HDD. When repaired Scandisk reports that it has fixed the problem. However, the problem persists on the next running of Scandisk. The same result is obtained for multiple HDDs. The following is known: Device Manager does not report any problems and has two relevant entries - Disk Drives: USB connected HDD is correctly identified and shown to be working properly & USB Controller: USB Mass Storage Device (usbstor.sys) is present and shown to be working properly. Windows Explorer lists the connected USB HDD (Drive F in my case) and allows full access to it. However, data transfer is pains-takenly slow (i.e. hours to run a thorough Scandisk on a small 2.5GB drive). Is this a known problem with a known solution? Tag: And a new AdAware update Tag: 288269

    - Need DOS help Hi folks, I'm writing a batch file and need to check for the presence of a folder. I find that the "IF EXIST ...." syntax only works for text in WinME. I can use this in WinXP but NOT in ME IF EXIST C:\TEST GOTO END :START RENAME C:\START\SAMPLE.TXT JONES.TXT GOTO DONE :END ERASE C:\TEST\XXXX.TXT YYYY.TXT GOTO DONE :DONE EXIT Running this batch file in WinXP works fine but in WinME it does NOT follow the directions. It simply drops to the next line after the IF EXIST statement. Same thing happens if I use IF NOT EXIST - just goes to the nest line. Can someone advise on how to check if a folder is there and how to jump to one or more places in the batch file for other actions? Thanks, Fred Tag: And a new AdAware update Tag: 288264

    - Where is my file 2 Would someone please take a look at my thread of "where is my file". Maybe you know the answer and can also tell me why I seem to have tilted Mike. Not sure if it is related, but I ran across something strange this morning. Browsed to archive where I keep some data. Specifically a folder that contains data and forms for Vietnam Vets and noticed a file name that I never created, except unknowingly. DDCC7300 No extension even. I did a search for *DDCC7300*.* to see if I might have passed over a file of same or similar name with pointer and accidentally saved to that name in a different folder. It only returned the one file. So I have no idea how it came about. But if I open it is an excel file. An older version of a database that I have since added more sheets and data to. Note, my original thread was about search, and am now double bewildered. Any ideas to how this file came about or my stupidity about search are appreciated.

    - Looking for Security Software for Win ME Hi there, My 6-year-old Win ME computer was happily running some ISP supplied AV and firewall software until the ISP upgraded it to a newer version which is no longer supported on an ME system. They no longer issue or support the "old" version as it was with a different company. So, I'm hunting around for the basic stuff to put on my ME system, i.e. Antivirus Firewall Antispyware Antiphishing etc. Just because these will be used on an older computer I would prefer to use free stuff. I have hunted around on the internet, but it seems that Win ME supported software is getting harder to find. Suggestions and recommendations would be much appreciated. The system is a 433 MHz Celeron with 192 MB RAM. So don't want to install applications that will use much RAM. Thanks in advance! By the way, I need to get rid of fragments from previously installed apps, what would be a good program to use? L. Tag: And a new AdAware update Tag: 288173

    - problem with scandisk or what? Yesterday after an apparently normal close down, next time I re started, the computer went into scandisk "improper shutdown", but with the thorough option dotted, automatically fix errors ticked and all options greyed. SD went through about 3/4 of the bars, then checked some 28,600 sectors, then started to scan 1,800,000 sectors. Does this every time. Also the same in Safe Mode. Scandisk in DOS mode shows no errors (surface scan not done - will still be here tomorrow if I let it scan). Any ideas out there? Are the 28,600 sectors scanned first "different" to the 1,800,000 sectors scanned secondly. I did have a similar happening some months? a year ago but I "cured" it by SD in DOS, then SD in safe mode, allowing the first 28,600 to check thoroughly and stopping SD, then rebooting normally. (improper SD not appearing.) BTW just killing SD in normal mode prevents ZoneAlarm from opening - get a yellow X. Opening up ZA from the yellow X gives me a "System Error" notice where the open programs list appears.

True. But I never open this up till noon or later, so you have loads of
time to best me.

I just realized I beat you by exactly FIVE hours.....referring back to
your post about the time difference.
