    Monitor problem

    I have a Samsung SyncMaster 913v flat panel monitor that I bought about a year and a half ago. Lately I've noticed something amiss with the left side of the screen. Text along that side of the monitor seems a little too dark, or maybe a bit fuzzy (kind of hard to describe). Could it mean the...

    IE 7 and OE 6 balking on boot up

    I get this problem occasionally when I boot up my computer in the morning (HP xw4400 workstation, Windows XP pro). I'm connected to the internet via a cable modem and a linksys wrt54g router. Sometimes IE 7 and OE 6 refuse to function. It's not a modem or router issue, because other computers on...

    Mystery program brings up desktop

    I have a strange problem with one computer running XP Home SP 2. There is some program running that regularly causes the desktop to come up. This can happen while playing a game or when the screensaver is running (I don’t notice it happening while working with other apps). I can't really tell...

    Outlook Express refreshes

    I'm using Windows XP Pro SP 2. Outlook Express (ver.6.00.2900.2180) has an annoying tendency to refresh the email list of the inbox whenever I return to OE from another application. It's like a quick blink of the window and it only does it once, whenever I return to look at my email. This...

    Hover flyouts in IE7

    I have three computers, all running XP SP2 and IE 7. On one, when I'm looking at a certain website forum (dslreports.com), if I hold my mouse pointer over the title of a post I get a flyout with all or most of the post in it. Very convenient. Saves me having to click on the post to read it. But...

    Can I move slave drive to different computer

    I'm getting ready to retire my Windows 98 computer. I added a 40 GB drive to this machine about 3 years ago, It's only 1/3 full. I was wondering if I can just pull it out and put it into my Win XP machine, also as a slave ddrive. Will the data be available on the new computer, or do I need to...

    Random disconnects with dialup

    I'm running Windows XP SP2. This machine has a 56K dialup Ambient modem (Intel 536EP), and lately I've been having a lot of random disconnects. I recently reinstalled XP over itself and the modem wouldn't work at all until I ran the SP1 update (I then reinstalled SP2). Most everything is back to...

    USB device not loaded on cold boot

    I purchsed an ABS Bravado 2500 last month, loaded with Windows XP Home. After that I bought a new Visioneer One Touch 7100 USB scanner. I've noticed that lately Windows will not recognize the scanner on a cold boot (after the computer has been off for several hours), that is, no scanner is...
