I'm just throwing this on here for opinions. This morning - my SO's PC would not connect to our network. To summarise 1. Cold boot failed 2. Repair of network connection failed 3. Fixing the IP address - worked! Now - I would have said - OK - reboot the router. HOWEVER I tested the physical...

All of a sudden, or so it seems, Word2007 docs with a printdate field are NOT being saved after printing. i.e. - open doc, print it - field updates (all good so far) then click save and close the doc. It is not saved! What have I done? What do I need to do to fix this?

I started getting lots of these recently and running a chkdsk with the f flag and rebooting finding no issues. But still kept getting up to 20 55 events a day "The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable. Please run the chkdsk utility on the volume Boot." To cut a long story...

Has anyone noticed that recently (I assume in the last few months) that running chkdsk on the C drive never gives a clean result? At least not for me on 2 machines. If you use the /F parameter and reboot then no errors are found! A typical live result is like this. Thoughts? anyone?

Clutching at straws here but I would like see how long bits of a macro are taking and the now() function seems only to get the time to the nearest second even though I am using the following format mm:ss.000 I have also tried mm:ss.ms but I don't get the correct results displayed or the time...

I seem to be getting quite a few of these warnings in my Event log lately. Should I be bothered? If so, what do I need to do to prevent the problem?

It's a minor nuisance but sometimes I just get to see a popup in time to watch it fade away! I am not talking about windows notifications - like 'new updates available' - I have already increased the display time for these. I am talking about Skype say - telling me a friend is online maybe - but...

A while ago Microsoft identified a security issue with gadgets and sent out an advisory about stopping the sidebar completely. However, I rather liked gadgets. 1. Does anyone know if that is that - or is there any chance they may come back? 2. If they are not coming back is there anything for...

thread1726-1659129 I've been a bit too busy of late but finally have a moment to share. I finally got around to buying more RAM It was very little extra to get 8GB than 4GB so that is what I did. I therefore now have 12GB of RAM. The net results can be summarized as:- NO benefits regarding...

Broadband access at my Dad's has never been good. He's at the end of nearly 7 miles of copper. However. recently BT supplied him with a Home Hub 3 and brought fibre to within a mile or so. Speed went up initially to around 2Mb and then 3.5 and then suddenly the connection became very unreliable...

Excel 2007 I use Option Explicit as a typo preventer amongs others. Recently and on occasion I mistype and the cariable is compiled. How come? Has anyone else experienced this bug? If that's what it is.

Original thread - thread1726-1643813 Well, what with one thing and another I finally got around to it tonight [blush] I hadn't used the machine in an age - I allowed it to download all new updates and installed them in chunks until all updates except IE9 and a couple of 'voluntary' ones were...

There was a brief discussion at work this week on the alternative ways to shutdown Windows 7. If anyone knows of a definitive list I would appreciate it if they posted a link. Academic interest only - so please don't spend any time looking! Cheers

What happened to the "Windows 7 - CD ROM didn't eject" thread? I got an email saying BadBigBen had posted and when I clicked on the link I got a 404 error and on searching I can't find it. Did it get too silly? or was it just too trivial?

Suddenly, or so it seems to me, Excel is doing a full recalculate if I change some code. Even simply adding a comment to some VBA code will do it. I can't for the life of me think what I may have (inadvertently) done to trigger this behaviour. Or is this normal - because at the same time the...

Problem is word simply hangs if I click on the office button, then send to then email. In Internet options, Programs I don't have an email option though. So I think that's the first issue. I have Thunderbird installed as the default email program. So, given the above how do I get internet...
