I just wanted to share this tip for all those guyz who hate to wait for windows to boot up and load
into memory.. And not only that, after booting, it starts loading all the startup programs into
memory. If you are also fed up doing this, You can use the HIBERNATE option. :-) All you have
to do is, configure your PC to use HIBERNATE instead of SHUTDOWN. About Hibernation, QUOTE
Hibernation is a state in which your computer shuts down to save power but first saves everything in
memory on your hard disk. When you restart the computer, your desktop is restore...

Step 1 --> Open up microsoft word if you have it. If you don't.... try another word
processing program... or else your screwed... sorry. Step 2 --> Go to open. Step 3 -->
Enable all files for opening. (Right underneath where you would type a file name) Step 4 -->
Select something gigantic like google earth, etc... Step 5 --> Wait a minute or two... you
have gigantic hunred thousand page documents! Well... nothing you can really read or understand

My computer has been slowly getting slower by the moment, I have no current internet connection but
I've had one before. I've ran every anti-virus program I could think off. It seemed to speed
up my computer, but only slightly in a few programs, but windows, for example display properties
would take over a minute. I figured it could be a hardware issue, but I don't know where to
start, I ran a bad sector scan and my harddrive and it found plenty bad sectors that it had to
rewrite. What could be causing this and how do I fix it or make sure it is my hard drive...

This is a constant problem whenever I try sorting my files, suddenly Windows Explorer shuts itself
down by calling in Dr. Watson. Then restarts and repeats again after awhile. It doesn't happen
all the time, but the crash problem comes frequently and I have no idea how to diagnose the problem.
Appreciate the help. If any of this should be of useful info, I'm still using Windows XP Pro
Edition SP1 and using IE 6 (not intending to update this because of complaints i get from other
people regarding SP 2 and IE 7. The same goes with Vista.)...

I have come across a lot Live CDs for different variants of Linux. I was just wondering if the same
thing can be done for windows OS. And how can this be done? Please need it urgently....

It has been over 2 years since the next generation operating system has been in development and
there are many voices saying that Windows Vista has too much eye-candy then our CPU and RAM can
afford. And they seem to be true. Bill Gates and Microsoft seem to forget that we don't have 52
billion $ to spend on hi-tech computers. I have a AMD Athlon64 3000+, 1GB RAM, nVIDIA 6600
128Mb Video Card and I don't even dream to change my computer (or some part of it) for at least
an year. Returning to the subject ... I downloaded the lastest Windows Vista build (5308)...

First of i want to state this is my first mac and i have been using a PC for probably since i was
4-5 which was 11-12 years ago. I have never used a mac, except for in school rarely, in all that

like them a lot. Sorry, i am getting off topic. I just wanted to show you that i am not stealing
what so ever. I own one desktop computer with Windows XP Home and my laptop with Windows XP Media
Center Edition. The only problem is that i bought the computer with Windows XP preloaded o...

Ok, I got a problem. Recently, an old Windows 98SE computer my friend has, messed up. All the DOS
programs that were on the computer, started claiming that they were out of memory, and after he shut
it down, he went on it later only to find that he cannot load Windows because there is "Insufficient
Memory to Initialise" it! There is nothing wrong with the hard drive, however - I tried to use
Safe Mode on his computer recently and it worked fine (with some restrictions, of course). I
personally think it could be a problem with how much Virtual Memory has been allowed...

Hey. In the vent forum I have been spending some time sharing problems with my windows pc. I have
windows ME, and it used to run great, but it getting worse and worse and worse. I can switch to
Windows 2000 which I have a copy of (never tried it) or re-format and stick with ME (in which case
I'm fairly confident it will slowly over a period of 1-2 years again become unusable. But Linux
I've heard is free and lightweight. Also, consider me not entirely interested in a Mac. They
can be more stable than Windows (though I think XP is fairly equal to a mac in stabili...

Hey, guys. Well, I have read various articles here and elsewhere about how equally distributing the
contents of your computer to multiple hard drives can enhance its performance. As I was installing
a new game to my computer, I figured that it might be a good to start transferring my data. My
first hard drive (C: Drive) is 229 GB with 171 GB of free space on it. My second hard drive (D:
Drive) is 465 GB - all of it is free. I was thinking that perhaps it would be best to put all of my
games on one hard drive and my other programs on the second. Also, I thought it&#...
