Need some quick help

INFERNO2000
I have a file, data. bak that's used by MS Office XP. I need to find a way to make that one of those protected system files, so it won't get deleted by another program I use to clear up registry entries and useless files(EasyClean, to be precise).

RIO Riot

OK, is this the worst idea they could come up with, or what? The idea of using Flash RAM in an audio player is that it is solid state. That means that, since there are no moving parts, getting bumped or moved will not cause the music to skip.

Hey all, I've buggered my brain for about two weeks now, trying to figure out why I can't get into any secure web pages. What ends up happening if I try, is I get the standard DNS Error/Page Cannot be displayed error.

Higher FPS in UT

ConQueso
I've changed my monitor to run at 120 Hz in 640x480 (highest safe Hz according to the manual), yet when I run UT at the same resolution, the monitor goes back to 70 hz (as the UT screen image fills the whole screen (I hadn't resized 120 Hz to do so), and as the FPS peak at 70).

joystick issue

ConQueso
Got Mig Alley working in Win2000, with a hitch. It detects my Logitech Wingman Force 3D, in the control screen, where it's bound to flight, rudder, and throttle control. It doesn't allow me to disable it (if that means anything, I don't know).

Uninstalling WinWasher

SnapperOne
Used the trial version of WinWasher once or twice over the 30-day trial period. Appears to be a nice program. Didn't use it enough, however, to determine if I wanted to spend $30 for the complete package, so I tried to uninstall then reinstalled the demo.

WMA vs MP3

Atreyu
I decided one night to make a. wma file to see what Microsoft was boasting about. The file size was super small, WAY smaller than your average MP3 and sounded just as good. I'm considering converting my MP3 collection to.

Disabling Java....

McBane
It used to be so simple (win2k/win98) to disable java. . . Why do I need to disable java? It makes for a nifty Popup killer without the use of 3rd party programs. . . I went ahead and disabled all the scripting crap under security in Internet Options, yet the annoying ads (Like the crucial one on this page) still a ...
