How may I query XP for the USB version my PC supports?
To bcastner, SYAR2003, & linney: Thanks folks! Your reply has convinced me that I don't have USB 2.0 on my XP-PC. The following quote from the 'faq' article makes me think I have to have a USB 2.0 card so apparently I need some hardware & not just an updated driver: "If you don't have a...- bromberg

How may I query XP for the USB version my PC supports?
I purchased my PC in August 2002 and have since put on XP SP1. How can I tell if my PC supports USB 2.0 ? The Control Panel shows USB support but not whether it's 1.1 or 2.0. Thanks, Danny- bromberg

Does anyone here use ECLIPSE ?
JVZ & Stoolpigeon: Yes, your comments are of help. I've used JCreator as an editor which always suited my needs for simple Java programs. Since I've seen ECLIPSE in the weekly Java newsletters I subscribe to, I'm tempted to give it a go. Thanks to your impressions, I think I will. With... -

Not much help in answering my question but thnx anyway. Danny -
Does anyone here use ECLIPSE ?
I stumbled upon the ECLIPSE website and it looks promising. I'm in the market for a free IDE but so far I only write simple programs for my amusement/edification and don't intend to distribute my code for an enterprise or anything full-blown. Is ECLIPSE for me or is it overkill? I thought I saw... -

How to use this JAR file?
Expostfacto, Well that certainly tells me nothing. Show me one sentence where he demonstrates HOW to execute his class. Sorry, but jar files are somewhat new to me and the only ones I'm familiar with are the executable jar files, which this one isn't. If you could point me to some doc on how to... -
WinXP Power Toys-Virtual Desktop/Timershot
I installed XP Desktop Mgr & can see the 4 different backgrounds, but I cannot get each one to display the different shortcuts I intend for each desktop; ie, I want 1 desktop for my workstuff, one for my fun stuff, one for my educational stuff...etc. No problem seeing different backgrounds...- bromberg

XP PowerToy Desktop Manager question
Hi, I just installed PowerToy's XP Desktop Manager and have a usage question. The 4 destops I now have available all have the same shortcut icons on them. My impression was that each desktop would have its own (different) set of shortcut icons that I could control. If not, then what's the...- bromberg

How to use this JAR file?
Hi, I've used jar files before by executing them as: java -jar jar_file_name but when downloading the 'caramel' jar file from this website, http://ajax.sourceforge.net/caramel/index.html I am unsure how to use it. The author did not reply to my usage question so hopefully you can help. Why he... -
Running Sun's Demo Applets
Thanks, JavaDude32. The plugin is installed fine but Ithink I need to re-install my IEv6 since I deleted MS's JVM thinking I could easily point it to Sun's JVM. Even though my IE option's panel shows Sun's JVM, IE refuses to use it?!? I guess part of my question is where does SUN document the... -
Running Sun's Demo Applets
Hi! I downloaded & successfully installed the Sun JDK 1.4.1_01. I was playing around with the 'sort' demo in the directory: DannyJDK\demo\applets\SortDemo\example1.html . I received this error message stating to "download & install the Java Virtual Machine". However, when I execute... -
Running the SUN demos that come with the SUN JDK
...correction: The error message states that I need to "download & install the Java Virtual Machine" (which is essentially what I said about needing a JRE). Danny -

[bold]Need to put back Win XP's MS JAVA VM[/bold]
napoleao: Thanks much! your recommended site has been bookmarked & looks like I can still get the MS VM even though not available at MS itself! Still think I should be able to configure the Sun VM instead of installing the MS VM. I would've thought by downloading the full Java 1.4.1 release (37...- bromberg

[bold]Need to put back Win XP's MS JAVA VM[/bold]
I uninstalled the MS Java VM that came with XP thinking that when I installed Sun's Java VM it would replace it. However, even though my Sun Java install was fine I can't seem to run applets now (whereas I could before), so I think I need to put back the MS VM. Does anyone have a download link...- bromberg

WIN-XP not recognizing Sun Java VM when executing HTML w/applet
Has anybody had any bad experiences installing XP SP1 or SP1a? I've read some mixed reviews whether or not to put it on. NTmare: Haven't seen a reference to Sun's Java VM now being part of SP1a but I'll look into it. Thanks. linney: I'll look into your 810030 link, but I'm pretty sure I'd...- bromberg

WIN-XP not recognizing Sun Java VM when executing HTML w/applet
I have Win-XP/Home edition and just successfully un-installed Microsoft's Java VM via the Control Panel. My intent was to replace MS's VM with Sun's (1.4.01) VM that I downloaded and installed. An applet that successfully ran with MS's VM now does not run. I'm sure my Sun VM install was...- bromberg

Win XP not recognizing Sun's Java VM
Egobbitz: The option you suggested is already checked on my IE panel as you described. In fact, I have no problem compiling and executing a java program from a DOS window (ie, XP does find my bin directory where javac.exe & java.exe reside, which tells me that my PATH statement is just...
