yeah it's pretty much just utorrent, then [/thread] it's just an untoppable program

Yeah I've used iTunes, but Winamp is my music library now (and has been for years - although I still use iTunes when im on most other people's computers). It has a lot of features and you can really customize it, but all the features don't take away from the usability: it's just blatantly...

It doesn't do anything for me, but I'm glad to see something like this developed - it's a really good idea and really cool for people with PS3 with a really nice home theater system. If that was my case, I would probably even get this. You can also use keyboard + mouse with PS3, right? I have...

lolz - but I meant only block the porn, let him go to (almost) every other site (I just mean don't make a whitelist, that's so restrictive)

For 11 and 13 year olds, a standard filter (keeping out teh pr0n and such) and a briefing on internet security (personal and computer, like viruses and such) should be sufficient. Just make it a good filter because a 13 year old can figure out how to download firefox. Whitelisting a 13 year...

I updated last night. This machine I was updating had always had problems one way or another, for the last 7 years probably; and I mean but problems. I've reimaged this computer so many times, but this time, however, the update went through with no problems. Although, the computer is still as...

Firstly, I'm organized with my folders and filenames - but I use Winamp because I love it and have no desire to change to anything else. My skins are beautiful, it's low resource, works without being in the taskbar at all, remote features, on and on...

I would just hit up the Gamebridge, it's popular, available, cheap, and it works as well as it should (some people have some issues with it, many other users have none) It's a little interface that on one end you plug in your classic Yellow, White, and Red cables and the other end is USB -...

I have a black 5thG 80 gig ipod - i got it because it was the biggest available - but the 160 gig? I want it now!

*gasp* Honestly hearing that is like hearing Chinese.

Good enough for me. I didn't realize the HP was a TN, and are all NECs S-IPS or is it the luck of the draw?

How do you guys think the NEC compares to the HP 2207? And is there a 22" version of the NEC? 500 seems a little steep, and I'm not a fan of the speaker, but if it's the best then it's the best.

Make good use of Imgburn, it's the program that everyone should have.

My solution was: uninstall Quicktime install Quicktime Alternative I hated Quicktime for things like that.

Ok well I went into auto update before and apparently there were errors going on and it hadn't updated in a while (puzzles me), but after fiddling around forever it somehow magically became updated - and on restart these scripts have gone away. I haven't seen a dialogue since restart - magic...

I don't see any plugins in WMP11, can you give me a link to what you saw or give me instructions on how to fix it?

Oh sweet I'll check....(since I do have a number of VST plugins..)

I'm going to reimage I think, it's starting to get out of hand. No A/V or anti-spyware is getting anything.

I'm currently running Vista Ultimate and I get these dialogues all the time - ALL the time they don't go away. Does anyone have any idea where they come from? They seem to come up when I'm browsing the internet, but I'm not sure if they're exclusive to that. I googled this and all I got...

If a capale program exists I'm interested.

Well I do agree with you (as I said about the dirty feeling of stealing). I was just getting it out in the open that one does exist, although for the 35 dollars it costs for NOD32 why not buy it? It is a good thing to support this sort of software.

FYI There's a legal crack of NOD32 (it changes a registry value, which is legal) - you don't feel clean when you do something like that though. I think Avast has become more bloated over time, it used to appeal more to me.

There was a nearly identical thread to this one in a different forum a long time ago - i think the number one choice was picassa i dont do anything like this though so i have no experience.

My vote is completely for Media Player Classic - I never even considered it before. I much prefer it to VLC, WMP, and I use it to play all media files (I use Winamp only for music/video library and for the ipod, it's not the default player). After I had MPC, I then installed Real Alternative...

Well it's not a bad image at all, I just decided I wanted some of the features I was missing out on. I have a new image and I guess I'm doing the custom install. Thanks for your help.

So am I doing a hybrid upgrade? I do this by selecting "clean install" and then I'll get some options for storing files and programs? Thus just putting all my files in Windows.000? So then all I have to do from there is reorganize my files and reconfigure my settings?

Wait - so what am I dealing with here? My possibility now is I take the installer DVD, put it in, select the "Upgrade" installer, which will keep my files and programs, and then reimage with all my programs and files intact. So is this method flawed? I didn't double install the first time, I...

What will retrieving them be like? Will it have every file mushed together in one big folder? And what about programs?

Alright thanks a lot for your input - I appreciate your help a lot! That's just what I'll do then, so all my files, programs, and settings will remain in tact right? Super.

Can anyone tell me if running the upgrade install of Vista to upgrade FROM Vista will cause any problems?

Alright, thanks a lot that's what I needed to hear. I think I'll just do that. Will that be okay upgrading FROM Vista though? Because that's designed to upgrade from XP... I'll have to see if anyone has done that before, the last thing I want to do is lose my unbacked-up files in a hostile...

Don't you think I know that? I already said that, 1) I annhilated my install CD, and 2) I downloaded the image. I know it's a hacked image, one of the lighter images (i specifically found other downloads with names like "vista ultimate no DVD or media center", which isn't what mine said...

Alright I went to Ikea today and purchased a Mikael desk and it works fine. So I'll let this thread die now....forever and ever.

Yes, that's the idea of what I will do if there's no other way. But I'm trying to avoid the pain of backing up all my files somewhere, installing a new OS, reconfiguring EVERYTHING (which did take a while), getting all my files back on, and I still will have loose ends. Speaking of which is...

Dammit I guess I just got a shaved image I could have sworn it was stock. Eh well if there's any other way than reimaging just feel free to atleast PM me if not just reply.

Ok...what's in there that will help me with my problem? When I go to the "Windows Vista Ultimate Extras" or whatever it says it gives me two (already selected) options - Bitlocker Prep and Key Backup. Should there be more options in there?

I don't see anything about 'adding' a program. The Add/Remove programs has become "Programs and Features" which allows me to uninstall, change, or repair. My Vista disc was broken in half more or less, so I got an external ISO (which is perfectly legal). But I need to assume that this ISO was...

I currently have Vista Ultimate activated on my computer, but the image I used didn't have all the programs/extras that come with Ultimate. More specifically, I'm missing: -Complete PC Backup and Restore (I think I'm not sure...i ran a 'start' search for "backup" and nul) -Windows Fax and...

Quite awesome but weeks later and I still have no desk. I need help here I'm seriously thinking about just going to home depot and getting a surface like 34" deep, 60" wide but then what would I do about legs? And how hard would it be to accomplish this? Because I seriously need a desk and...

I would defenately considering getting a larger HD (especially for your needs), and Vista has the bugs worked out now. As far as I know everyone pretty much agrees, I'm running the latest version of 32 bit Vista now and have had no trouble with my home-brew PC (which I did not check any of my...
