Hello I manage a quite high traffic website. I send my readers a direct link to download a file, which sits on an Apache server (no 301, nothing special). The file is in a Wordpress "upload" directory, but this should have no impact on the bug. Firefox users can click on the link and download the file without any problem IE users click on the file and they receive a "downloading..." message, but the file is not downloaded and cannot be open, until a popup appears : "download error" I have lots of these bug reports. Here you have one of the links with the issue : Link Continue reading...

Laptop Battery - Controlling the Re-Charge Threshold
by Guest JCW2- 0 replies
- 119 views
IBM Thinkpads offer a cool tool in their proprietary "Battery Maximizer" software under "Battery Maintenance" that allows you to set the charge level at which a re-charge is triggered. This is supposed to maximize battery lifetime by reducing unnecessary re-charge cycles on a computer that remains plugged in most of the time. But I don't have this Thinkpad software. Now that I've found some related and equally cool tools that are native to XP SP3 itself (e.g., PowerCfg to manually set the processor throttle for lower power consumption, and Wembtest to determine both the maximum AND the CURRENT processor clock rates), I'm wondering: Does XP offer any such control ove…

NetBEUI on Windows XP SP3?
by Guest JCW2- 0 replies
- 115 views
I know, I know, this very obsolete stuff, but... I would like to know if there is any way to get NetBEUI running under XP SP3. I have a small Workgroup that still has some W2K machines running NetBEUI for file sharing within the LAN. (TCP/IP file sharing is turned off I was advosed long ago that it was safer this way because of various Microsoft vulnerabilities in NetBIOS over Tcpip.) I have two XP XP3 machines on this Workgroup that were upgraded from SP2 AFTER NetBEUI had already been installed, and they are networking just fine. Here's the problem: I am now upgrading one of the W2K machines with a XP SP3 new-install CD -- there is no way to uninstall SP3 and re-i…

I turned on my laptop yesterday morning and was going about my business on facebook and such when suddenly my computer "Blue screened". Ever since then my computer takes about 10 minutes to start up, after the Windows Vista loading bar, it says "Please Wait", on this screen is where I have to wait. Then once I log in I instantly get the "Windows has encountered a critical problem..."(My computer doesnt restart, I can't even manually shut it down, I have to hold the button down on my laptop to turn it off.) even before my icons have come up, although it does take about 5-7 minutes to get my icons up. Once they are up, I can open programs and games with ease, but anything W…

We have recently purchased Hp PC's and 2 work OK, the third has a USB external drive attached. This one originally wouldnt boot, so I changed the boot order in the bios to boot from HDD not USB HDD. The system now boots fine, but will not shut down. The user clicks start shutdown, and Vista goes through the process but the system reboots every time. We have closed all of the programs so nothing is running, unplugged all external devices but still it reboots. Any clues on how to resolve this? Continue reading...

by Guest Reproman- 0 replies
- 150 views
I need help in fuguring out why Vista rejects the HP LaserJet 5200DTN driver when we print from Autocad 2008. For some reason it allows for us to print an 8.5x11 page but it will crash if you choose any other type of page size. This is what Autocad generates each time. Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: acad.exe Application Version: 23.1.51.0 Application Timestamp: 45d00500 Fault Module Name: StackHash_4ecb Fault Module Version: 6.0.6001.18000 Fault Module Timestamp: 4791adec Exception Code: c0000374 Exception Offset: 00000000000a6e97 OS Version: 6.0.6001.2.1.0.256.6 Locale ID: 1033 Additional Information 1: 4ecb Additional I…
