I only have 1GB of RAM. I have just formatted C Drive and done a clean install of WindowsXP a week ago. How do I see how many restore points I have to free up space. This is the first time I have seen this happen. Just yesterday I had over 2 GB of space free. I haven't installed anything new...

I tried that first thing, but wasn't expecting it to find the missing 3GB. Disc cleanup only gets rid of data that is accounted for but not really needed. I have a whopping 3 GB missing and unaccounted for. Something is taking up that much space but I can't find what that something is.

Hi, I just want to ask if anyone can explain this. My hard drive is partitioned in 2 sizes. 50 GB and 10 GB. The 10 GB makes up my C Drive. When I go into "My Computer," it shows C Drive to be 9.81 GB with 111 MB Free Space. But when I actually go into C Drive and "select all" and then right...

Hi, I was just about to upgrade the memory on my HP 510N. It only has 256MB or RAM at the moment. I wanted to add more. So I went on the HP website and looked up my model, it says it can hold a maximum of 512MB. Now I am running WindowsXP, and thought that I would be able to have more than...

Actually I just starting using the email at this job. So the first attempt to send email to my work address has failed. I forgot to mention, that i sent my home an email, along with 4 people at work at the same time. When I got the email at home I hit reply all, and all email came back...

Just wondering if anyone can tell me... I have always been able to receive email at various jobs. I have just got a second job, and noticed that I can't receive email at work. I can send email out to anyone, but just can't receieve from anyone outside of work. Is this normal for work places to...

Not exactly sure what your meaning. But let me just add, when you are saving to a .pst file, make sure to check the box where it says, "include subfolders." So if you go to the "personal folder" and save from there, and include subfolders, it will save the whole shabang. Just my 1 cent, cuz it...

Quote Warez Monster: Try a repair install, were things working before you converted? Just tried a repair install, and still can't install MS Streets and Trips 2006. And yes, things were fine before I converted. I only converted because I was told that NTFS is better file system in terms of...

Oh yes, the programs have been installed, and so far seem to work. The only thing is, it seems to be getting worse. Because MS Streets and Trips stops installing in the middle of the install. I watch the program files folder as it installs. Because nothing else can be seen as it is installing...

Hi, I have a problem with installing software. I am running windowsXP Pro. I just reformatted and installed windows. Originally my drive was Fat32, but i converted to NTFS, and then installed windowsXP. I used this command: "fromat c: /fs:ntfs", without the quates of course, to format and...

Well thanks for the suggestions. I allowed for error logging. And what I got was different errors each time. First I got a "Page Fault In Nonpaged Area" error. I started thinking maybe bad ram. Then it happed again, and I got a different error. So then I decided to uninstall Nero 7. So and I had...

I've got a strange problem. My system reboots at different times for a reason I cannot figure. These are the times it will reboot. - Sometimes when I put in a disc(blank or not, DVD or CD) the system will reboot once it's done reading the disc. - Sometimes when I'm done a burn and just as I...

That didn't work, but thanks for the suggestion.

I'm not sure what happened, but for some reason my icon text now has a border around it. It's basically the color of the solid background, in my case black. I have always had no border so that the text looks like it is written right on the background. When I go into CONTROL PANEL -> PERFOMANCE...

Hey thanks, it worked, I now have true color 24bit 800x600 display. I just also realized that I have no Audio as well. When I try to play an mp3 I get: "Cannot play back the audio stream: no audio hardware is available, or the hardware is not responding." I know I have on-board audio. I...
