areid
I have a USB ISDN modem (Hayes Accura), which I want to use with my laptop pc. Whenever I unplug the modem from the pc I get the famous blue screen, and I have to reboot the pc! I have downloaded the latest driver from Hayes, but it makes no difference.

Virus "worse then AIDS"

Mr.Guvernment
from another forum Quote:Virus 'worse than AIDS' THE deadly SARS virus could infect more than one billion people worldwide within a year - and end up being more devastating than AIDS. The grim warning was issued by a leading UK scientist last night.

iTunes music store

ViolentGreen
So do you all think this will be successful? I think when it finally gets ported to windows I will use it. You have a guarantee of quality and of download speed plus the ability to preview. I don't download all that much anymore but I think I will use it when I do.

NTSwitch & Windows Server 2003

altered_computers
Has anybody tried this with RTM Win2k3? I remember that you could change XP Pro to Whister Server but it had a bad memory leak. I don't have a copy of 2003 to play with, but I assume anything that NTSwitch changes still works.

Yet another Nero Question

ViolentGreen
Actually two questions. 1) Nero detects my Lite-On 52x24x52 as having a max write speed of 40x. I have burned at 52x before. Anyone know why? 2) I have used Nero to find the max speed of my cdr media but I can no longer find where this option is.

vs.net 2k2 hang

zoooom
There is a 10 - 15 second hang whenever i try to run an application in vs. net 2k2 on win2k3. debug or release doesnt matter. start without debugging does the same thing. If i run it again it gets faster.

Screensaver - Reg Hack Question - Win95

Lotus
Is it possible to set a screensaver to startup after say a 20 second idle? It will require a reg hack I believe. Or if not, is there a program out there that can do this? Gotta love HIPAA.

Question about Splinter cell

el_vago32
OK, i'd like to know (just curiosity) if the Splinter Cell's engine (or all of the Game's engines) uses a different refresh rate that the one i have selected on the displays properties. I've actually selected a 1024X768 Res.
