make an ultimate boot cd, there is a utility they have in there called "registry restore wizard" that lets you pick previous registry restore points. An invaluable tool...it is far simpler and easier then messing with what your trying to do, which I have done with varying ...

I heard that 127.0.0.1 is the fastest IP address you can get. I know for me I get <1 ms speed all the time.

I don't know if you want to do computer work, but I know you are smart enough based on what I've read on here Zooner, so you may want to check out a website called OnForce.

www.onforce.com is the address, and it's pretty simple to get it setup. You have to create your profile, go through a couple ...

The new Helio Ocean phone has been getting good reviews from multiple sites....don't know about the service.

myself I just signed up with Cingular/ATT for 2 years...I hate contracts, and have not had a cell phone for 7 years now, but for less then $60 dollars I got a 2GB MicroSD card, Motorola ...

Description
The 0xc0000022 error is a security error. A regular user does not have rights to read a file that one of our software programs use.

Cause
Some 3rd party programs can errantly change the permissions on a file

I'd go to safe mode and see what programs are starting up...

I worked at a BBY for 6 years.. it's hit or miss, depending on store management, as to whether or not you'll have a pleasant experience.. more often than not, they hire idiots.

I just got hired in a few weeks ago at my Best buy here...I don't think I'll last 6 weeks heh. Which is a shame since ...

klif.sys gave me a blue screen error....then when I rebooted I got another blue screen.....had to goto safe mode and delete klif.sys. :( too bad cuz I really want to try Kapersky.

it's probably my system though....i've done too many tweaks too it, some service is probably disabled or something ...

drdoug99

do you have an extra anti- static bag from a hard drive or something? you can put the CPU in that and then that will work fine too. or really any kind of like plastic ziploc back would work, something non conductive, that lets you easily package it with bubble wrap and everything.

drdoug99

try going to http://www.drivermagic.com and download the Driver Wizard software. It might give you another driver to use. Usually a generic AC97 audio driver, which should work.

Though I've never experienced a problem from a Gateway driver like that before, usually the manufactuer drivers work ...

thanks bigmo, but there's no CPU cooling software installed.

i'm going to try and take out the old memory, maybe the memory is bad or something...have to run memtest and see if anything comes up....

drdoug99

yea my 550mhz k6-2 has XP on it, with the regular Luna theme and it plays movies and mp3's fine....so something is screwed with the computer, which sucks since everything else about computer is good...no conflicts in device manager, I disabled all unneeded ports in BIOS. I don't think I turned off ...

I got this Pentium 4 HP system from work for free, and well I know why it was free cuz it's junk... :D

It's a P4 1.5Ghz, 384mb Rambus memory....has PCI sound card, PCI video card, and a TV Tuner card, plus PCI NIC.

Did a fresh install of XP on it, everything on the computer works great, pretty ...

drdoug99

I might see it again actually....reading more reviews of it, majority seem to like it...I'm sure there's stuff I missed the first time around...

My major complaints are....why do they change character names....your supposed to be Harry Mason....the mason family, and they have a different last name ...

drdoug99

it really is a great networking resource....I use it for keeping track of bands and music.

I was real Anti myspace too, thought it was for kids or whatever, but it can be useful.

Sure you have the sicko's that look for girls, and the punk kids that post about school shootings, or beating up kids ...

After spending $80 dollars each on one of the latest MIMO Super G routers and desktop NICs, it's been nothing but frustration.

It's a DLink DI-634M router, the Super G MIMO 108G....with the compatible network card, DWL-520 I think....

5 calls to tech support that I can't understand, and walk me ...

drdoug99

so you jumped from 1 gig to 2 gig and didn't really notice a difference? how about performance in other uses?

i'm building a computer for music production/video recording and editing....you think 2 gig would be worth it?

But the quality of the memory is good though otherwise? Thanks

drdoug99

very sorry to hear Humboldt....

drdoug99

BSOD's not good....hardware issue of somekind. Reseat RAM, run MemTest 86 or other memory test software to check....SiSoft Sandra Benchmarks..whatever to find out the cause of instability.

Is this a fresh install of Windows?? if not, do a fresh install.

drdoug99

Cool man! Let me know how you like it, I see that Patriot RAM on NewEgg all the time but haven't heard much about the brand.

drdoug99

well they've replaced my card with the 7800GT for 299....

the 6800GT Leadtek wasn't even listed when I checked on Newegg...

so is 225 too much? It's going on Ebay probably later tonight...

drdoug99

A while back I ordered a plain Geforce 6800 video card, and ended up getting the 6800GT instead. Been planning on building a new computer, since my current computer is only AGP, but haven't had the funds, and now this months' gas bill has somehow shot up to 3 times it's normal size, I need to sell ...

drdoug99

do you have any other hard drives to test? or sata cables? replacing the sata cables would be an easy and cheap way to rule that out at least..

both hard drives are messing up? from re-reading, it looks like just your first "primary" is the only one giving problems?

the Hal.dll error is related to ...

Anyone who pays that much for any concert or event is just nuts...

I'm glad I'm young and don't listen to crap like bon jovi....all the bands I listen to I can get tickets for anytime, if they go for 20 bucks that's getting up there...

drdoug99

why does this Uwe Boll guy only direct videogame movies?

I checked IMDB and he has like 5 more game movies coming up....and from what I read none of his movies are even any good...

drdoug99

we've got several of the cameras around where i live...I don't see why you'd be "fuming" unless you like to speed and go through red lights....the cameras have never bothered me. :)

Speed limits don't need to be changed either, at least around here.....people still go at least 10MPH faster then ...

drdoug99

my gas bill at least....Columbia Gas of Ohio...they were supposed to raise prices for this month like 49 % or something...but I guess they found a way to not raise them so high....I'll have to wait and see how much my next bill is. :mad:

i have one....my neighbor has one....I think it's pretty cool. He has Ridge Racer DS, which is neat since I can download the game from his system, and play 2 player wirelessly. I've got Zelda the Minish Cap, Shining Force, Mario 64 and that's it so far.

Look into the various cards they have ...

drdoug99

from what i read, that workaround unregisteres the Windows Picture and fax viewer, from opening the Windows MetaFiles...(WMF)....your thumbnail viewing won't be affected with that.

To change the view, make it go to List view, which is what I use as well. Then you have to go to Folder Options ...

drdoug99

damn man....what a nice attitude that guy has....time for a ass kicking plus lawsuit....

I hope something can be done to recompensate your loss....I'd be ballistic if some jerk off game and smashed my guitars...

on Christmas no less....

here's a good site that lists the differences between the AMD64 and Opteron...

that's bs....why do they sue against people that only have a few songs....specially with 5 kids, I'm sure that will be real nice for her to have to pay around Christmas time...

Yeah, that's just too over the top....damn money grubbing women...

clothing, shoes, and accessories ($15,000); dermatology ($3000); laser hair removal ($1000); massages ($600); jewelry ($5000); gifts ($5000); and vitamins ($500). There are plenty of other costs Richie listed--like $20,000 annually ...

Doh....i fell for it too....i was all into moving very slowly to get the last part of level 3...and then.....

drdoug99

I agree with BigMo...everything is after rebate, you've got the crowds to deal with, etc.

plus in a few months all these items will probably be on clearance sale anyway...

drdoug99

yea i forgot...

i have my cd drives hooked to a Promise ultra133 tx2 card...normal PCI card

didn't see a way to set the DMA mode for that....4 hard drives hooked to the motherboard primary and secondary channels.

yea i used a craftsman air compressor...

well it seems to be something hard drive related...as when i remove the hard drives, i can then access the bios, and the computer works like normal...except without hard drives of course it is of no use. :D

once i connect the hard drives back, i get the ...

season finale allready??

I just got into the show about couple months ago...I love it. Not happy to hear we have to wait a whole year or more before season 2 though

Pullo is one of my fav characters too...

drdoug99

Ok...so my friends computer needs a monitor. I take it to work with me, (one of my jobs is a part time PC tech at a small computer store) and test a monitor and it works great. The computer is very dirty, so I blow it out with the air compressor.

When I get home, I hook it up at my friends house ...

I notice when I burn a DVD, whether data DVD or a DVD movie, Nero shows it going at 1x speed, even though I have 16x media and a 16x burner, and I select burn at 16x speed. Now I know it's not going to burn at 16x really, but it should be a lot faster then 1x.

any ideas on what to do to help speed ...
