    New Motherboard Doesn't like to Cold Boot

    C, I meant with a Digital MultiMeter. The voltage reported by software utilities can be far from accurate. At best, they can show a rise or fall from a known benchmark for reference. Try taking a reading off of a PSU power connector at boot and see if you can find an abnormal reading. This is...

    New Motherboard Doesn't like to Cold Boot

    I know you are contemplating a Nforce2, but fair's fair, Mercutio...My next video card upgrade will likely be a R350 (Maybe R400 depending if my patience holds out) based ATI. 8)

    Barton appears on my price list.

    Especially considering I don't have a motherboard that supports Bartons. Bello?

    Barton appears on my price list.

    It just needs the current bios revision flashed in. The last two (maybe three) 8RDA+ bioses released by Epox have had Barton support.

    Car Accident

    The instructor I had for the FAA Powerplant license course explained this to the class one time. He spoke of less damage be inflicted on the body of a relaxed person than one who has all their muscles rigid for the same reason a cooked spaghetti noodle bends and an uncooked one breaks. I'm not...

    Thanks Tim. No worries, I try to keep my shields up against crap like that. The only one that ever got in was "Comet Cursor" when I was using IE because I had the "Download Signed Active X Controls" set to "Enable". At least that one wasn't too hard to get rid of.

    FYI: Popup blocker for IE on Windows

    ZoneAlarm Pro has a built-in privacy module that the user can configure to block cookies, banner ads, pop-ups, animated gifs, javascript, vbs scripts, and other things. I can report that it works with both IE and Opera.

    If you were to buy a laptop: brand?

    If a person was looking for a high-performance laptop, I would suggest looking at the Area 51 by Alienware. They are meant to be gamer oriented, so it might not be that attractive to someone seeking a laptop for more mundane tasks. I would then suggest that they consider one of the other 5-6...

    FYI: Popup blocker for IE on Windows

    The lack of pop-up control is one of the reasons I avoid IE. Besides a tweaked host file, another good defense is the freeware program CloseIex. This program, once installed, simply gives you two more commands under the IE "Tools" menu. One of them closes all IE windows except the active one...

    The only problem I see with the new Opera besides the gripe that Coug mentioned is that the sorting of bookmarks by one's own order doesn't work.

    Opera 7 released

    The only thing that would prevent you from being able to check "Use default forms design" is not having a check next to "My style sheet" in the Author mode (not User Mode) section of the Page style preferences. Should look like this:
