My computer is doing the same thing! It just started yesterday! It randomly shuts itself down. I have an HP Laptop with Vista. The motherboard was replaced last year, (defective straight from factory). Everything else is good in it. I can't keep it on long enough to do ANYTHING with it, updating or anything. I can't keep it on long enough to run my anti-virus scan to see if this was a virus. Then once I turn it back on I get that, your computer unexpectently shut down, check the disk drives, etc. HELP ME PLEASE!!! I need it fixed by Monday morning (today is Saturday morning here). I have to use my laptop at work Monday, but right now I don't see that happening. I'm fully …

HAD THIS PROBLEM SINCE LAST YEAR AND HAS SINCE BEEN LOOKING FOR A SOLUTION. Windows Installer CleanUp Utility DOES WORK! JUST LOOK FOR THE OLDEST VERSION OF ITUNES INSTALLED IN YOUR SYSTEM AND REMOVE. AND THEN PROCEED TO INSTALL THE LATEST VERSION. :WINK: :SMILE: :BIGGRIN: -- Allan Avila

When I am in excel or word and I am using a mouse with a scroll wheel and the mouse cursor is over the ribbon and I scroll the wheel on the mouse the ribbon moves. Is there anyway that I can stop that from happening? In the older version of word it didn't do this and in the add-in program that I am using it makes me crazy.

Currently I'm using "PropertyGrid" control for my C# application. My problem is that when I input some "alphabetic" values(e.g. abc) for a property which only accpets “Integer†values, I get the error message below - "Property value is not valid", in the details panel, the information is like this - " 'abc' is not a valid value for Int32". Could I customize this error message?(e.g. showing some user-friendly message instead of "Int32").

I had the IRQ_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL problem for weeks in early 2010 (XP Pro). My investigations informed me that it was probably a bad PCI network card....but it was not. Finally, (after weeks of my wife nagging me for poor web performance and crashing blue screens etc.) the program 'combofix' diagnosed an 'MBR rootkit infection' (master boot record)...and I used the fix file MBR.exe to fix it. All is well now. No BSOD's for 2 weeks now and webpages are fine and fast as ever. dasgregorian wrote: Another IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL situation 29-Jan-10 So, I have been getting the IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL BSOD for the last couple weeks.

Hi There, I've reinstalled my laptop, but did not do so while connected to my docking station, now the Undock button does not appear in my start menu. How can I enable this? Thank you.

This is an annoying problem that's haunting me for month: In any Office 2007 Open & "Save as" dialog box there's a location selector for "My SharePoint-Websites". In this location there are a number of SharePoint sites that have accidentaly been memorized here. As the owner of some of these sites has not given permission to me to access these sites, trying to access one of those will pop up a login box and that's exactly what happens in any Office application (Outlook, Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc.) at random times. I'm not aware of any special user action that triggers the connect, so you couldn't even avoid it by not opening and saving any fi…

XP SP3 I got this error pop up box intermittently from last week: Visual Studio Just-In-Time Debugger -------------------------------------- An unhandled win32 exception occurred in explorer.exe[440] Possible Debuggers: New instance of Visual Studio 2008 Yes, I have install Visual Studio 2008, 2 months ago.

Suppose I have a file type (such as .cpp or .vhd) that is opened by program X by default. Then I change the default program to Y by selecting "Open With...", choosing a new program, and checking "Always use this program". Whenever I do this, I've noticed that the icon for files of that type does not update to Y, but instead stays with X's icon. Is there a way to "refresh" the system so that it associates the correct icons with file types? -J

We have a need to turn off AutoFormat replacement of "straight quotes with smart quotes", "fractions with fraction characters", "ordinals with superscript", and "hyphens with dashes" on a 1,000 of our 13,000 installations of Office 2007. I can use a specially filtered group policy with the Office 2007 group policy templates to disable those options in AutoFormat As You Type/Replace As You Type, but there is not a similar group of settings for AutoFormat/Replace. Does anyone have any idea how I can accomplish this aside from emailing manual instructions to the group? Thanks, Tom

When you run Windows Update, choose custom to search to search for the uodate instead if express. Custom will find the update, and includes a box that says: Do not show me this update again. Checking this will hide the update.
