he's talking about the back side where you made notes about what's on the cd. I think the idea is that with a crack all the way through, the laser sees that and there is nothing behind the plastic where the data is stored for it to reflect from. If you put the tinfoil over the crack on the back...

On win98, which is what I'm familiar with, they do. Here is some info about using Norton Ghost. http://ghost.radified.com/ghost_1.htm

In regard to ghosting the drive, have you tried XP compatible versions of Norton Ghost or Powerquest Drive Image?

That's really annoying and I've been using the same thing dansdad suggested, changing the orientation to landscape before printing to get around it. I saw another thread recently, which I cant find right now, in which it was suggested to reset the right and left margins to the minimums allowed...

Here are two examples of what you are looking for. I have not used either of these companies and am not recommending them more or less than anyone else-these just looked like good explanations for you. http://www.pccables.com/00504.htm http://www.bixnet.com/adfor25to35h.html

dont know if it would make any difference, but you could also try-either for reading it or with the data recovery programs-using an older slower speed reader.

kippy13 On my machine at least, I think it was a cheap power supply (Deer). It was replaced around 2 years ago and the box has been on an APC back up unit - which if I understand correctly is supposed to help with both surges and drops. We replaced a bunch of power supplies about 2 years ago...

Will the stuff like spybot and NAV run in safe mode?

Re crow's suggestion FAQ760-3862 contains a list of online scan sources. I've seen the trend micro suggested a lot, I've used the panda soft. If the same software that is causing the registry problems would also be blocking workings of an on-line scan, another suggestion I've seen made is to...

In the last 6 weeks we've had trouble with my machine and another one at work having intermittent shutdowns. In both cases replacing the power supply fixed the problems.

Start Settings Control panel display settings advanced performance (in win98 - dont know about me) will show a graphics acceleration slider. You can try reducing the level of graphics acceleration and see if that makes any difference. You could also try removing the mouse and its port in device...
