    file deleting

    Odd named folder in in a download folder. I can drag and drop download folder with odd named folder in it, to another fold but can't drag and drop odd name folder by itself to another folder. I also cannot drag and drop either folder to recycle bin.

    IE window size settings

You adjust the the size of the window by putting the cursor on the corners and the hit two key strokes, but I can't remember what they are. Something like Alt+m or Windows key+g. Then when the window comes up...

    Installing Hard Drive

    Is there a top or bottom to a HD? Should one side be facing up? What about a twist in the IDE cable. It seems everytime I install a CD-Rom or a new hard drive the IDE cable barely reaches.

    remove startup items

    Sorry to seem so novice, But could you guide me through backup? I did go into reg and deleted one item which caused me troubles. Nothing more than re-installing things. Startup item name is "5-2-46-112" I think it is one of those telephone pay sights that pop up from time to time.

    remove startup items

    roamer1 This program, Does it do the same as msconfig? I don't see any difference. crusty Thanks, I think we're heading in the right direction. If I go to the startup tab in mscofig, there is there is a program/file name not seen in registry. At least not under the run area.
