I ran that wonderful FREE registry cleaner in pcmagazine. cleaned registry, and a few other things. never could get back to Zero. machine would not boot. with only oem win XP on a separate partition, was easiest just to overwrite XP. so I rebuilt the computer. not that difficult. is a crummy compaq with a an amd 3400+ semperon.
1. I am unable to get the display adjustments to stick. I change font/point sizes on the scroll bar, icons, fonts and they disappear when I reboot. have changed them using right click on screen and <properties<appearance<advanced<okay<apply. No good used control panel<display<etc. and still no carryover. how do I get the changes into perminant memory? 2. I bought and installed a WD internal drive. came with a utility that allowed: When copying from partition to partition, if the destination partition is a primary partition , Drive-To-Drive Data Copy will make the partition bootable anyone ever tried this. I will probably pull the bootable C drive some day soon and try to boot form the L drive to see if it flies. if it does, is this not pretty much what people using ghost and acronis are looking for? happh thanksgiving all. ************************************************************************ * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
