Was using IE. I just installed Firefox and tried it. It worked great. I'll just tell her she has to use it. Thanks for the help!

Yahoo Pinochle & XP

I tried that version of java just now. I got the same results. What could I be missing? I did a clean install of XP, loaded java, and went to Pinochle and it hung up on exit.

Yahoo Pinochle & XP

Thank you very much for the reply. Do you know where I can still download v1.5? All I can find is 1.4.2 here: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html and the latest one at java.com. Thanks!

64bit mobile athlon XPs?

64bit mobile athlon XPs?

I think you guys are right and that is what I was thinking except there is one big thing... HP has branded it and markets it as an athlon XP-M notebook. It also only runs at 1.6GHz as you can see in the screenie. So, it can't be based on tbred/thorton core because it runs too slow for its...

64bit mobile athlon XPs?

I'm writing this on a notebook with an athlon xp-m badge, but it also shows "physical address extension" in system properties. So I fired up CPU-Z and found some interesting info. Here is the screen shot: http://members.cox.net/dextrous/ss.jpg This laptop is an HP pavilion zv5320us. Also, I...

make $210 after rebate sony T610 TMOBILE

"The security certificate for this site has been revoked. This site should not be trusted." Doesn't look hot to me. On a side note, I just got the same phone with the same provider as this deal (t-mobile) from foncentral.com but they "only" give you $50 for taking the phone.
