I think it's the brightness and contrast of an LCD compared to an CRT. A CRT is much smoother in brighness and contrast because of the thick front glass compared to the LCD. You'r eyes will get used to that though. Anyways best to lower the brightness, if it hurts more than a small anoyance of...
I don't know when and how it hapened, but one of my HDD's sudenly refused to let me acces files and folders on it. I learned that I needed to go into safe mode to take ownership and that solved the half of the problem temporarily. I could acces the hard disk now, but it was useles to share...
Whenever I get a virus that I can't clean or delete I save the log to a txt file and reboot in Safe mode and remove it manually, then rescan. In safe mode you can delete or modify any file, even ones unaccesable in normal boot.
OK Rebate I got it. I was on a diferent computer and had to keep the system on so I couldn't reboot to Safe Mode and test it there. But I got on mine and I solved it.
Now I have another big question. Since until now I never tempered with the ownership of folders will I have to do this every...
How do I get into the Security Permissions on the folders and files I can't acces. Under proprieties I find no security tab.
Alos I have a new update. On the same PC I added a 80GB HDD that I needed to clean up so I copied the files I needed on the one that gives me trouble. I was able to...
I already tried disabling NOD32 plus in XP64 I have no anti-virus and NOD is inactive.
In Safe mode it still doesn't allow me anything. It keeps saying that I need to check if the disk has full or write protection activated. But only on thsoe folders.
Nobody has any ideas???
I did a full SpinRite6 check and it showed no problems. The Check disk tool finishes with Fix file system errors and scan/recover bad sectors checked yet nothing gets fixed.
The drive is fully functional just some folders and files won't work at all. Nothing I do to...
OK I have a Maxtor 300GB 16MB/buffer and I work a lot on it since I film and edit videos. As of late I have a worring problem that never hapened to me before. Some folders and files (non of the esential stuff yet) cannot be done nothing to them. I can't open some folders and documents and files...
Just got XP64 on and I clearly see 4.00 GB of RAM.
So is it WinXP32 on my hardware?? Or what? Hardware alone seems OK and in 64bit no prob. In 32 bit...
Thank you for the explanations.
I'm sorry I sounded agresive on my previos post. It just seemed you gave a quick look and answer.
From what I know Vista will come as a 32/64 installer, and depending on hardware it will install acordingly. Even if I have to choose the Vista 64 is the obviouse...
Did you read the first post?? and my last one??
The CPU is a AMD64 4400+ and the MOB is a nForce4-SLI chipset Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe. It's BIOS let's me enable the memory swap. So how could it be a CPU/chipset problem in my case?
Also why is the system reporting full 1/2/3GB when 1/2/3 stiks are...
Yeah:
300GB Maxtor = refused to answer anything but format (all important data was on another HDD as well)
200GB WD = broke it's read/write head after 3 months of use (all important data was on another HDD as well)
80 GB Maxtor = my little brother broke 6 pins in the conector for the ribbon...
I guess I'll wait for Vista before I plug in all 4 sticks. I think it's WinXP fault and not the board. In the BIOS I can see all 4 GB and I can enableboth software and hardware swap functionality for 4 or more GB of RAM.
Microsoft should be more clear on what is WinXP limit.
Has anyone got...
