Internet Exployer Favorites menu bar Look How to ? customize ?

As an alternative to IE I use a small browser called Flash Peak Slim Browser, that allows you to set up groups for favorites, even so far as opening the group all at once. Maybe this browser could help you out. Jest a suggestion :)

My MSI K7T Pro 2A died. Good replacement?

I have the ECS k7s5a and I really like the board, very very stable, i used 256k of pc133 until I was able to upgrade to pc2100 DDR ram and have had no problems with either configuration. I recommend the ECS board for now until the kt400's come out, or until AMD makes a 133 fsb athlon :) Good...

Best socket A mobo for xp 1800+ under $100??

I recently built a system with an ECS K7S5A board (~$55) and I love it. AMD 1600+ works great, however, I have also heard very good things about the Shuttle AK31A with Via kt266A chipset, and also the Shuttle AK35GTR also with Via kt266A and ATA 133 (both sub $100 boards). Good Luck! :)

K7S5A Arrived yesterday....and *EDIT - I'm a Dork!*

I have to say that some ppl here seem to get all hyped up about brand loyalty... And also that I just built an ECS K7S5A system (see Champ in my rigs) and it went beautifully. I did end up changing the cpu hsf, but that is no fault of the board, the retail hsf that came with the Athlon XP 1600+...

Norton's defragramenter vs. default Win 2000 and Win 98 defragramenters

I have used both Norton Utilities 4.0 and Norton Utilities 2002, and for win98 i really like the Norton's 4.0 defrag. Running win2k right now, and Norton's 2002 defrag seems ok, but i think MS's defrag is ok too, both defrag about the same way and at the same pace. If anyone knows what Nortons...

Can my Chieftech PSU be the source of my "FF" problem with EPOX?

With an epox mobo, the FF means that the motherboard has cycled through its codes and sent the process on to the operating system. When the OS is up and running the FF code will stay right there on the mobo, meaning, all is well...continue computing... :)
