    Changed printer (in Me) & now quicken won't print

    As I already mentioned all other software is happy with the printer. That includes notepad and even wp5.1 for DOS! It is only quicken that will not play ball. You can print - but nothing happens. Absolutely nothing. No hour glass, no print, nothing in the printer queue, zilch, nothing. What...

    DVD problem

    Basically it's all to do with dye sensitivity and reaction speed. The faster the dye reacts and the less power from the laser it requires to change state then the faster the data can be written. Sometimes it helps to get a clean burn by reducing the write speed from the maximum. You will never...

    How to set new browser to be opened in a maximized Window?

    Couldn't agree more Rick998. It's all a bit of a nightmare. I don't use automatic updates for that very reason. I know people who swear my Norton - but myself - I can't stand it.

    How to set new browser to be opened in a maximized Window?

    I agree, but something must be causeing that bug to manifest itself. As to what, I haven't a clue. Personally I would probably live with it. But if ie behaved itself recently & thelordoftherings has a suitable restore point that must be worth a go. Generally speaking, when software suddenly...

    How to set new browser to be opened in a maximized Window?

    Apparantly so, for you. It shouldn't be like this though. Something is wrong with your setup. But as to what, I have no idea. If it bothers you enough, you could try. Totally ensuring your system is malware free. Running one or more of the registry fix programs. Returning to a restore point...

    Modem Dialer take-over...

    Only an Admin user can change the dial up settings. So, if you make you Dad an ordinary user after first setting up a separate Admin account for him then he should be safe on the net. He will have to switch to the Admin account to do things like a microsoft update - but that is a minor...

    How to set new browser to be opened in a maximized Window?

    There's something odd going on here. stduc is right - what he says is normal behaviour. So, I would ask thelordoftherings. Are you an admin user? Are you a member of a domain with limited rights? I might even get suspicious that some kind of malware was at work here. So I would close all ie...

    can't boot pc after win xp pro install ??

    You could try checking for compatability issues by re-loading 98 and then starting the XP CD and requesting it check the machine out before loading. Did you upgrade or a fresh install? How much RAM have you got? How much video RAM? When in safe mode is there anything in the bootlog that gives...
