"Could not get shell folder ID list" Java exception
by Guest JeffG- 0 replies
- 126 views
I am developing a Java application on a Vista Home Premium system. Suddenly, whenever I click on a browse button which creates a File Open Dialog (JFileChooser), I get an exception "Could not get shell folder ID list". This has always worked before and I have changed nothing that could cause this problem. The program runs correctly using the same jar file on my laptop, also running Vista Home Premium. I am convinced this is a Vista-related problem. Another weird thing is that when I start Windows Explorer, it starts up in C:\Windows\System32 which it never did before. Could these two things be related? Could you please explain what the original exceptio…

monitor unable to go to sleep

I am trying to enable the monitor to turn off. It's a new computer and when I first had it it would do it fine. I did have some trouble with automatic updates, it got stuck trying to download one of them and kept asking to download again and again. Got it sorted with a Microsoft tech guy who suggested download and running winupsecureWinXP.bat. This may have nothing at all to do with anything but I thought it might be worth mentioning. My monitors are two Philips LCD. The monitors will go off and stay off for about one or two seconds then come back on again. If I reboot and go to the welcome screen and leave things, then the monitors will switch off as the…

Hi, I have written window's service. I neeeded to run external application from this, but I read that in noninteractive apps this will not be possible.

hi, All: I'm using Windows Server 2003 R2, patched with the latest SP2. But I'm meeting problems with the option of numproc=N in boot.ini, after specifying the option, Windows cannot provide the large page support in running applications. If I don't specify the option, I can use large page successfully. (I have enabled my account in the local security policy by assigning the my accout in "lock pages in memory".) Is it expected or problems of current Windows Server 2003 R2? It exists in SP1. Would some one shine some lights on this issue? Thanks. -- Chen

Console input from keyboard is terribly SLOW
by Guest vanyatka- 0 replies
- 102 views
Hi, When I work in a console window (Run: cmd), the keyboard input is sluggish, far slower then what I have in normal graphical windows. This is especially noticed when you press and hold the key e.g. the arrow key. In console it is about 3-4 symbols in a second, whereas in other windows it's no less then 20 (the shortest delay, the fastest repeat). The problem also spreads out to other console programs, like FAR Manager. It becomes hardly usable at all, you cannot move the highlight of files comfortable enough. Can anyone suggest possible solution? Thanks,

Vista Basic boot problems
by Guest Jim Dalton- 0 replies
- 116 views
After the last round of upgrades my Vista basic will not get past the start screen before it reboots. I inserted the Vista disk and tried to repair the installation but it could not. It told me to remove any hardware that had been recently installed. nothing had been changed on the system. I then tried to reinstall the OS but it required me to execute from within windows probably because it was an upgrade version. How do I fix this catch 22 ?

Restrict printing to black and white only
by Guest myfaux@gmail.com- 0 replies
- 107 views
Hi, I have one printer shared from Windows 2003 server. I would like to restrict certain users from being able to go in change the printing preferences to print in color. I have the everyone group in the security tab of the printer and it has only print checked off not manage documents or manage printers. When logging in as a user i can modify the printing preferences to whatever I want. I thought this would be greyed for users unless they had rights above just print. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance.
