  1. i only changed it on 2 of the three tabs.... didnt notice the shit on the third.... thanks.... tinyxp isnt that bad at all.... looks more like 2k though.... and the driver thing is a pain in the testicles...... will photoshop and shit run on it?

     

    i got a MB, HD, p4 processor and a few other random scrap from a sony vaio laptop.... the thing suffered some blunt force trauma to the screenage and and stuff, but i completely took it apart and kept the parts worth keeping... how much of a pain would it be to build a laptop? i think id only need a screen and some memory and i should be good, but that shit dont look as easy as building a desktop... .

  2. its a coworkers laptop that theyve had since before i got here and they gave me every disc they had which did not include windows or backup discs or anything.... cant get into windows to run tuneup....

     

     

     

    oh and seffiks, im actually gettin put out in a completely different position doin service on electronic fuel management systems and oil tank monitoring systems and shit with a huge increase in pay and bennies.... plus itll be a union job.... less 12oz but much more $$$... a big part of the reason im getting the position is because of all the computer shit i do for them..... i wont forget those who helped me...... haha....

  3. bsod ( boot into safemode by pressing f8 or f12 one of them and then select safemode with NO networking when it boots up right click my computer select manage in that window find event viewer looks for any warnings the big red circles with x's in them click and research the error in the microsoft knowledge base see how to fix it

     

    you might have a conflict somewhere

    loose memory module loose hard-drive cable, so go back in and press everything down and in

     

     

    tried all that, bsod no matter what... safe mode, system recovery, start windows normally... thats where i started.... then i pulled it apart and checked all connections... removed everything and set it tightly back in place.....

     

    only way it boots at all is off the cd... memory just passed the diag testing....

  4. no problem thanks for a new question its been slow around here lately

     

    but was that a touch of sarcasm i sensed from that thanks for the help....

     

    ???

     

    but did you get it completely removed??

     

     

    not at all man... i really appreciate the help... i solved a problem at work that would have otherwise required outside help which made me look fucking great... and yeah it took a minute, but the toolbar is gone... why would the google toolbar cause problem,s like that? weird....

     

     

    another problem if you guys are up to it:

    dell inspiron 1100 laptop getting the BSOD.... running diagnostics off the bootable cd and it kept shutting down during longer test like the memory and HD tests... i opened it up, cleaned the (fucking filthy) processor fan.... now it overheats less, but still getting the BSOD if i dont boot off the CD... am i on the right track by just going through the diag shit? or is there something else i should be doing/checking?

     

     

    thanks again

    /no sarcasm

  5. after disabling every add and enabling 1 by 1 it looks like the google toolbar add on is whats fucking it up.... and when i try to remove it in add/remove it frezzes again... any other wat to get rid of it?

     

     

     

    btw thanks for the help...

     

     

    edit: problem officially solved.... and on that note im going home...

  6. just opening IE makes it freeze.... way before tryin to connect to anything... its a problem with the IE i just have no idea what or how to fix it.... firefox runs fine.. everything else on it runs perfectly.... its just the IE has something fucked up about it..... if it was anything else im sure uninstall and reinstall would fix it, but i dont think thats a good idea here.....

  7. im doing real good.... moved to a new place with a lot more space and im right in boston now... nice little promotion bout to happen for me at work... bout to make a shit ton of major purchases cause me and the lady have been saving on some ebenezer scrooge shit for months now and its time too spend... *edit: hope you caught that, but im not leaving it in the open cuz im not tryin to fuck with people who share their info with me...

     

    is portable tune up different from the regular tuneup? i ran that, adaware, defragged, did updates and everything on all the comps in the whole office over the weekend and everything else but the IE on that one machine is running fucking great....

  8. one of the laptops in the office is having trouble with IE... yeah yeah i know, fuck IE.... but this particular machine belongs to one of the people who do payroll and she NEEDS to use it to connect to the ADP site in order to do that shit... basically when you first open IE the little green loading bar stays there for like 5 minutes and the shit freezes... same thing happens with new tabs/windows every time... after the freeze sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt... ive done some searching and havent been able to come up with a solution/cause... anyone heard of this shit happening or have any ideas?

     

    ps. its been a minute since ive been in here... hows everybody doin?
