It's likely the Recycler folder has become corrupted on the problem drive(s). The files ARE going in there, they're just not showing up in the Recycle Bin window (Windows Explorer). A file manager...

This is an interesting one - after some testing with various browsers, and looking at the HTML, I've come to the conclusion that IE6, despite appearing to be the only browser that displays the page...

That site uses a LOT of javascript - don't confuse it with Java, it's totally different. Opera 10 reports "Opera has modified the JavaScript on www.shutterfly.com (Array splice throws on 0-length...

FYI GIFs are harmless non-executables, animated or not. They may be used by a virus or trojan as a transport mechanism, but in that case, you're already infected. The issue with Outlook is that email...

If you use IE, the pages you view are stored in Temporary Internet Files as PNG images with URLs http://books.google.com/books?id=(whatever). If you copy & paste they all end up as books(1).png, so...

Pressure from bloggers and governments brings climbdown on compulsory censorship software
In a last-minute climbdown, the Chinese government announced today that it will delay the launch of...

Could be a problem with packet size. There's a bug in TCP/IP "MTU discovery" that can cause this behaviour when a modem or router is using NAT, which I experienced myself some time ago. I couldn't...

I'm using W2000, but the procedure should be the same for XP.
Depends on how you're displaying Device Manager. If you're getting to it via "My Computer" (right-click)/Properties/Hardware: Enter...

Have you run CHKDSK/F ? It'll schedule a full check and fix on reboot.

My VL400 has 2 slots, each of which can take a 256Mb PC133 module. You won't find a BIOS upgrade to allow more - I've looked VERY hard! The info Broni found on the Crucial site refers to an older...

No-one has mentioned rebooting which is essential if attempting to change controller modes.

Yes, you need to debug your startup problem. The sharing problem will disappear once that's done. What's happening is that Windows is seeing a new USB device when you hot-connect the USB drive, and...

May well be an MTU problem. MS have made extensive changes to the TCP/IP stack in Vista. Extensive changes = new code = bugs.
Reducing the MTU to something like 1460 could clear the problem.

I was under the impression that ALL HD manufacturers used the "metric" gigabyte - WD is just doing what the others do. I spy a 2 Megabyte floppy disk over there - you don't get 2Mb (unformatted), nor...

I can - it's called WINDOWS.

Unfortunately the URL file type is for Internet Shortcuts, i.e. desktop or quicklaunch or IE favourites for example, and not embedded URLs. I had a problem a while ago with links not working in...

The "Connection forcefully rejected" means that the router is ignoring packets from whatever IP Windows has allocated automatically following DHCP failure - it won't be in the subnet range the router...

Identical to a problem a friend of mine had up until the end of 2005. She has NTL (UK) cable - internet, TV and 'phone, and the Internet connection would hang for about 10-15 minutes at random...

You're not meant to consider it - you're meant to panic and buy their software! Sites with less hype and more substance will usually explain how they got the information about your PC, and tell you...

There seems to be rather a lot of exaggeration and hype on that site. Your internal IP address is not visible to the internet.
They say "The method we used will sneak past most firewalls" - it'll...

Programs and installs should use Documents and Settings\<Username>\Local Settings\Temp for temporary files but some still use Winnt/temp. Type SET in a command window and you'll see the TEMP and TMP...

Yes, they can. Tell him to change something in desktop settings in safe mode, e.g. wallpaper, or change screen-area to 800x600, and APPLY the desktop settings. It's worked for me in the past.
