How to enter a .reg file into the registry automatically ?

philbarnes

When you double click on a. reg file it pops up with a warning box saying do you want to add this information to the registry? How would you make a batch file to enter this information without giving the user the option to mess things up and press no ?.

Are Win2k Service packs essential?

Tom-boy

This issue has probably been answered before, but I can't find it, so here goes: I've had some serious probs with Win2k lately. Lost the hard drive twice, the other went completely kaputt, and I've also had a couple of crashes/re-installations of Win2kPro.

Performance before and after XP SP1

jwl812

Well I have suspected Windows XP's SP1 to be more of a problem than a fix and now they are confirmed. I did some benchmarking with and without SP1 installed and the numbers are intriguing. First off, my modest system - AMD Duron 1.

GeForce 3 Upgrade Question.....

Silverado

I'm considering upgrading to a Geforce 4 Ti 4600 from my current video card, which is a first generation GeForce 3. . . . . not a Ti200 or a Ti500. My question is, would I see a noticeable difference in speed?.

Hey Gang, I just got a message from Windows saying you've held down shift 5 times and sticky keys has been enabled. . . . I told it to ignore that sticky key combo and that put a keyboard tray icon in my system tray.
