I have Acrobat 5 (full version) on my system -- but I haven't installed the Acrobat 5 Reader. I have the Acrobat 6 Reader installed. When I click on files having a PDF extension OUTSIDE of my IE browser, Acrobat 6 is loaded (and that's what the Windows File Extensions say is associated with...

I have a new motherboard (ASUS A7V8X-X) and since I installed it I can't update the MBR on my hard drive. Both LILO and DOS's FDISK both think they're writing to the MBR (ie they don't produce any errors) but the MBR is unchanged. I tried a different hard drive with the same results, so it's...

I used to be able to hear a "ding" when I would click the horizontal bar on the audio slider. Now, nothing. Likely it has something to do with the sound files -- any suggestions?

I've been trying to reorganize my hard disk (master) with PM. I make the changes using the GUI interface, the program reboots my computer, xmnt2002.exe "starts" to execute (get about 5 periods) and then "zip". I have to cold boot, and then press a key to abort the above...

I just installed an LG 4040 DVD burner. My system chose PIO 4 and DMA 2 as its settings. I discovered that the same settings were used for my additional two CD burners. Should I change the IDE channel settings in Device Manager to use DMA mode instead of PIO mode for all my burners? They...

I got hit with SPOLER.EXE in the past day or so. NAV's current definitions don't seem to "find it" but it appears that the definitions to be released on September 8th will... It appears that this is the W32.Randex.J worm. I just deleted two lines in the registry (as per instructions...

All of a sudden, SVCHOST (one instance) closes down on me with an error log created somewhere. This action prevents "cut and paste" operations and the control panel no longer displays its operations correctly. Any suggestions on how I can "fix" this???

All my "event files" work fine, but I can't get the "ding" sound to play when I click on the volume slider. I have reset all the events back to their "defaults", but still no "ding". I had this problem once before and fixed it, but now I have forgotten...

Fred Langa, in his June 23rd ezine writes: "Fortunately, I found an amazing replacement that combines the functions of PowerQuest's Partition Magic, Drive Image and Boot Magic--- software that PowerQuest sells on multiple CDs for $140. This alternative tool fits on a *single floppy* and...

Somehow I managed to get this virus on my PC. SARC documentation tells me to edit the registry and to remove a value: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run in the right pane to delete the value: "PowerManager"="%windir%\svchost.exe" I don't...

I have a USR 56K Voice Pro PNP external modem. It keeps "disappearing" from Device Manager on bootup. I continually have to go to the Device Manager and do a "Scan for Hardware Changes" and then it "reappears". I have an ASUS P4PE mobo. Any help with this...

For some reason, the Enternet Profile "window" always opened on Startup. I'd always have to manually close it. Now, all of a sudden it's opening TWICE, forcing me to close TWO windows! Any suggestions on where to go to prevent this window from opening at all??

At boot time, I've got a lot of programs that get loaded. It seems that they prevent the desktop icon images from being displayed (about half appear correctly and the others don't have their images displayed). If I refresh the desktop after all my programs have loaded then all the icons appear...

I've been running the Norton Commander under CMD.EXE. After it has been running for some time it appears to go "wild" --it seem to take control of the whole CPU. I've switched to "Total Commander" but am curious if anybody encountered a similar problem with the NC.

I arrange my icons by name. They get sorted by name, but it appears there are two SETS of icons, each sorted alphabetically. I don't know what causes this, but I'd sure like to be able to have all programs sorted alphabetically rather than two sets of them. I have deleted shelliconcache but...

Is there any way you can get NC running in its 18 file standard DOS character mode? If I have it load into a full window I get 42 files displayed in a small font. If I have it start up in a "window" and then press Alt-Enter I get what I want -- an 18 file display in the program with...

I went and lost my Sidekick 95 CD (it was free on a CD I got with a British publication). All works well with it under Windows 98. I used Alohabob's "PC Relocator Ultra Edition" to move the app to my Windows 2000 hard disk using the "intermediate device" (CDRW) route...

I have experienced this problem with Windows 98 and Windows 2000. I can connect perfectly fine using the EnterNet software, but when I try to browse or get email, it seems as though that software thinks I'm not connected to the net. I've gone through the Connection wizard and selected LAN...
