This dumb **** is such fun to pick apart. The **** keeps falling out of his mouth as fast as this idiot can move his lips. The TRUTH is Bill is on cracl/cocaine most of the day. You people are talking a language that Yanaire RyanAire does not understand. It contains LOGIC and FACTS! The Moron has studied SQL Server as a beginner in 2007, and attempted VisualBasic, making some living off these Microsoft products and hence promoting Windows. His brain is too primitive to learn a real language like C or C++. Or be a man enough to code in Assembler, machine codes, octals or just binary. Are you aware of what OS most supercomputing …

Just fyi!

WOW! I just had a Vista computer doing the same thing. I used a slight alteration of the method described to but essentially the same fix. A bad .manifest file. Also, I had a bit of trouble copying a new file into the location and had to change some file and folder security settings to allow copy-to access. Thanks to Mindless Automation for the post on the fix though. Learn something new every day in computers. All is good. Now I just got to get rid of those nasty viruses and rootkits.

I guess you think people can't read news for themselves. Did you know that females have a vagina and men do not? You seem to be confused when you ask the men in the forum about their vagina. Men don't have a vagina you TURD. On another note, you will NEVER see a real vagina again in your lifetime! HA HA HA HA HA HA.

Has anything happended with regards to disabling mandatory driver signing for x64 Vista? Still not possible? I have a computer I hardly use because I can't install several programs. Are there any other solutions to my problem here? (Install linux (probably the other half of my programs won't work), install windows 7? OSX? Buy a mac?). -- rodnebb

Going to Start Menu and then to Control Panel, I have it set so that Control Panel displays as a pop out menu. How can the font size be changed on this pop out menu? I have tried the Advanced Appearance Settings and can make the other items on the Start Menu any size I wish but, not the Control Panel pop out. It is way too small of a font size. Any ideas?

Hello, and thank you for reading my post. For some time now, I noticed that my PC's "click sound", which normally appears while surfing in IE 6, wasn't working. I'd learned that I'd need to visit the Start Navigation sound in Control Panel-->Sounds and Audio Devices, and select Windows XP Start.wav...which I'd do, but it wouldn't stay in place as soon as I clicked on "Apply". Because of this issue, and others, too, I reinstalled a "clean" version of Windows XP SP2, and then upgraded it (&, by extension, IE 6) to SP3, over the past weekend, but, while that sound DOES now play, it still doesn't stay permanently associated with the …
