3951.	Solve : About the latter strokes of typing a long post, also in profile settings??
Answer» Why does this forum allow a certain amount of text to be entered while composing a post or entering text into the 'signature' section, then, after whatever amount is the limit, 12 lines I guess, it starts making you scroll down to the latter section after every single key stroke. It sure irritates me. Does anyone else experience this or do I just type too much? I haven't ever had this problem on any other forum that I can remember. I remember reading a thread somewhere around here where somebody commented on a post as being the longest post ever on this board. I think it was bc programmer but I can't remember. That post was like 30-40 lines or something if I remember right. Why can't I compose a post containing approximately 25 lines and spaces without having to spend hours chasing the veiw of those latter lines for editing purpose, or, just simply trying to see what I'm typing? Is this some setting I have wrong on all 10+ PC's I use to access this site? I don't mean to complain, but I've worked 7 days, 10-12 hrs for many weeks now and have to sacrifice sleep and other needed functions of my life to log onto CH. I log on because this board is like a home to me. Many cyber friends here for 4 years now and I thank you all. But it took me 2+ hrs to post my thread about my latest PC I got today. It's just the SMF forum MO I guess, but If somebody can fix this, or explain the reason for the settings being as they are, I'll promise to try to keep my post shorter, when applicable. Well,there this samme problem goes again, I can't see what I'm typing and I'm not going to chasdse this posst . Sorry about the long postg agin but Quote Why does this forum allow a certain amount of text to be entered while composing a post or entering text into the 'signature' section, then, after whatever amount is the limit, 12 lines I guess, it starts making you scroll down to the latter section after every single key stroke. lectrocrew, I believe I know what you're trying to explain and I've experienced it and I agree it's very annoying. This reply will be short so it will not cause the problem you're describing since, as you've said, it occurs when the text being typed for a reply exceeds 12 or so lines. Well, let me ramble on here just to make this reply longer and see whether it happens for me now. You mentioned this happen on every computer you've tried and you've tried quite a few. What browser do you use? And, what's your OS? And, do you get a scroll bar on the right side of the message composition box when your typed text (along with any quoted CONTENT) exceeds 12 lines or so? The problem is not happening for me as I type this. And, this reply is not long enough that it would be happening if it were to occur. Now that I think about it, I believe I may not have experienced the problem since the recent upgrade of the SMF software used for this forum. Also, I'm using Firefox 3.6.10 to type this and my Firefox was updated to this version perhaps about the same time as the forum software update. So, I can't say for sure why I'm not experiencing the problem now but, indeed, it's not happening as I type this using Firefox 3.6.10 on my Windows 7 computer. People keep bringing this up and I have yet to experience what they are referring to, and considering the length of a lot of my replies, you'd imagine I would have encountered it. Therefore, the best conclusion I can think of is the issue is at least partially on the client-side (browser, OS, etc) In fact, I do recall Nathan noting that it was related to IE in some way quite some time ago. No idea if that is the case now. I know it at least happens on IE6; not sure about later versions.It doesn't happen to everyone. I experienced it with IE (ver 7 & 8 ) but have not had it happen with Firefox.Quote from: soybean on October 01, 2010, 09:35:02 PM What browser do you use? And, what's your OS?

And yes there is an active scroll bar (there is always a scroll bar but the scroll arrows remain inactive until text box content exceeds the alloted space in the basic text box). If there were no scroll bar then there would be no way to view or edit the content of the text located below the allotted basic veiw of the original text box size. - This problem exist only when the amount of text entered exceeds the space in the basic text box, then, with every stroke of the keyboard, the text box goes BACK to that basic box veiw (automatically scrolls to top).

3954.	Solve : problem with script error message?
Answer» I am new here, and hoping SOMEONE else has had this problem. I tried to send an internet page from Outlook Express, and WHETHER it was received I don't know, but a copy of the message is in my Sent folder, where it brings up an error message box telling me that there was an error in the scripts on this page, and asks, "Do you WANT to continue running scripts on this page?" This error message seems to be dysfunctional itself, and clicking on either Yes or No does not GET rid of it. It sits there stubbornly and prevents me from doing anything else on the PC, until I close the whole OE program with Ctrtl-Alt-Delete. Is there any way I can delete this message, or do I have to tiptoe around it forever? My best computer-savvy friend hasn't been able to help me....Aha! I already figured out the answer: I right-clicked on the Sent folder and did a Find SEARCH for the message, and when it was found I was able to delete it right there from the edit menu. To anyone bothering to read this, Thank you very much anyway!Thanks for posting back with self-solution

3955.	Solve : Fiber Optics - Internet speed?
Answer» Some ISP such as COX or Quest had some kind of internet speed using Fiber Obtics.. which is obviously what phonelines/telephone poles use today.. (instead of wire). Does anyone here use this kind of internet? I'd imagine that the only limit to internet speed is the sever itself.. like whoever hosts 'www.google.com'. I was just wondering.. Let's see some reviews for people who have it!I think Verizon has that to my neighbors are using that its PRETTY good.I have Fiber Optics from Northwest Internet, a SMALL local company. I get anywhere from 20MBPS to 60MBPS, usually around 40MBPS. These are my current stats: (www.speedtest.net - great speed testing site) (Remember when WWW used to be something you would capitalize? That was a long time ago..) It really depends on your service provider, how far away you are from the service provider, and also, how many people are using their CONNECTION. My speeds vary depending on how many people are using the network. According to Northwest Internets website, I can get "Up to 100MBPS" I don't think this topic is really "off topic", Ill move it into the MAIN "Others" board.

3956.	Solve : Colour laser printer problem?
Answer» HI Can anyone help me with a printing problem? I have a HP laserjet 1600 running on Windows XP with service pack 2 installed. The problem is that when I print a document with a lot of red, the colour is faded at the sides of the SHEET but is perfect in the middle. I am using the correct media including genuine HP toner cartridges. I have tried replacing the cartridge but it still happens. It ALSO happens with yellow but not as noticeable when printing stickers etc - yet if I print a yellow filled box in MS Word , it is perfect. If I repeat this with red ie, a rectangle filled in red, the fading occurs! The other colours seem fine. It doesn't MAKE sense to me. Can any one advise? Thanks PhilJust as a step of troubleshooting, SINCE it could be that both cartridges were not properly proportioned, do the cartridge dance (yes, I do actually call it the "Carthage Dance") Take the cartridge, and shake it back and forth (not too hard, its kind of like shaking up a 0.5LBS milk carton). This distributes the contents of the cartridge across, so that the outsides, or inside area, are even, and wont have faded marks on the side or middle. Just a reminder: Dont touch the drum inside, there should be a flap "hiding" it, that's to prevent light from getting in. A small amount of light isn't bad, but, prolonged exposure is a bad thing. (The round bar thing inside) Hi Yes, I had already tried that but to no avail. Any other ideas???

3960.	Solve : ~$1000 Pre-Built Computer?
Answer» OK, so I know a lot of you GUYS here will say "just build your own computer, bla bla bla" lol. I've been thinking about building one myself but I'm just scared that I won't be able to get it all together and working once I get the parts. So I'm coming here for some help on finding the BEST pre-built gaming computer for around $1000. If anyone could provide a link to something good it would be greatly appreciated . Thanks.Well, what exactly are you looking for? The best place to get parts is probably www.newegg.com I did a quick Google search to find you a tutorial... Check this out: http://www.build-your-own-computers.com/Worth too comparing Newegg with techforless too - between those two there is PLENTY of choice. Do check out a ''scratch and dent'' section ---- my current HP 4600 was 53% off list price because of a case ding and a badly fitting SIDE panel - looks don't bother me - but function does!

I dont know why, or for how long, but lets hope it stays that way. crosses fingersSounds like it could be that the keyboard had come loose... Let us know if it happens again, the keyboard may need to be INTERNALLY disconnected and reconnected to assure its in correctly.

3962.	Solve : Rock Band guitar fail?
Answer» Gah I thought this crap was fixed a while ago... My rock band guitar stopped working completely, it won't connect. Before when the batteries were dead or it was out of range and I pressed the connect button the red light would flash but now it doesn't do anything. This isn't one of the first guitars with the messed up strum problems, it's a newer one with the magnetic sensors. I don't get why this HAPPENED, it was working perfectly fine yesterday. I TRIED putting in new batteries, and the SWITCH on the back IS on. I opened it up and all the wires are ATTACHED. The warranty is expired, since it's 60 days and I bought the game in May. Anyone know how to fix it? Also would it be cheaper to send it to EA or to buy a new one?

3963.	Solve : Hard Disk Myths and the Truths!?
Answer» Hard Disk Myths and the Truths! I found this interesting article that talking about the commonly held myths and the real truths about all our favour needed item, the Hard Disk! Hard Disk Drive Myths Debunked The Hard Disk Drive Myth Guide This guide was written in response to the numerous fallacies about the hard disk drive that are still being propagated in many forum discussions. Although many articles have covered these topics, it is apparent that hard drive urban legends are still more popular than the simple truth. So, let's get down to basics and examine some of these common fallacies or myths and debunk them! Myth #1 : FORMATTING a hard drive too many times will cause it to fail. Truth : To put it shortly, formatting your hard drive will NOT reduce its lifespan. Yes, formatting is popularly thought to reduce hard drive's lifespan but that is nothing more than a myth. Formatting is NOT a stressful event for a hard drive. The read/write heads do NOT touch the platter surface, so damage to the platter only occurs if there is any shock to the drive during operation. You can format your hard drive 20 times a day, 365 days a year and it will be no more likely to fail than a hard drive that is not formatted at all. Myth #2 : Formatting a hard drive causes a layer of [material / dust] to be deposited on the platter surface, creating bad sectors. Truth : Formatting will not deposit any layer of "anything" on the platter. The read/write heads are not in contact with the platters, so it is physically impossible for them to deposit anything on the platter surface. In addition, the hard drive is a sealed environment assembled under clean room conditions, so there is very little dust inside the hard drive. Even if there is dust, why would formatting deposit anything on the platter? The platters are constantly spinning - any dust would not be able to deposit itself on the platter, much less create bad sectors or an alien colony. Myth #3 : Formatting the hard drive will stress the needle (HEAD ACTUATOR). Truth : Formatting is done contiguously. This MEANS formatting is done in a serial order - sector 500, sector 501, sector 502, etc. There is very little movement of the head actuators. Therefore, formatting will NOT stress the head actuators, which is why you don't see jokes about psychiatrists prescribing Prozac to head actuators. ------------------------------------------- [LINKS removed]

3964.	Solve : My Computer will not recognize dvds or cds, says: insert disc or access denied.?
Answer» Cheers! My Acer computer is less than a year old, I am the only user, I have Windows xp and have Powerdvd . A few months ago, something happened and whenever I load a cd or dvd, a box pops up and SAYS insert disc, either that or access denied. I checked the device manager and it says that everything is running fine. This is driving me batty, please, can someoe help me? Do ALL discs have the problem? What are you trying to do?Thanks for replying. Yes, this is with all discs, all that I am trying to do is either play a music cd, or a dvd movie or DOWNLOAD software from a cd. It doesn't recognize any cd or dvd.I have adaware and Avast, I did have spybot but did not like it that much, Don't KNOW if this is relevant, just thought I would mention it.So the problem started a few months ago? Can you recall any changes around the time of the problem? (downloads, installs, hardware changes, ect...) What is the exact error MESSAGE?I just put a disc in, I hear it whirling but nothing is showing up on the screen. I click on the power dvd icon and Powerdvd comes up. I click the play button and a grey box shows up that says: D:/ is not accessible access is denied. I try and click the eject button and nothing happens. But I still hear the disc whirling inside the PCBack in Device Manager, are there any Yellow Question/Exclamation Marks anywhere?I Don't recall intalling any new software and such a few months aga, just to note: I have tried the system restore, you know that goes back several months or so, and nothing happens. It doens't restore anything.I just looked in the device manager, there are no yellow question marks.It still says that the device is working properly and to troubleshoot if I have any problems, HOWEVER, the troubleshooting thing is useless, no help at all.I would unplug the power to your computer and then open the case. Once inside, unplug the CD Drive, and then plug it back in. Boot the computer and then see how it goes.What might that accomplish? Would that just make it revert back to the original setting?BTW that last comment of mine was not meant to sound smart alec,It's just to make sure nothing is loose or unplugged. ok done, but still the same thing happens when I try and play a disc. This is driving me nuts

3967.	Solve : Vertical colored band running through center of monitor?
Answer» I have about a 2" vertical multi colored band that flickers running through the center of the monitor. I have DOWNLOADED updated drivers, checked registry, checked to be sure everything was plugged in tight, taken the monitor to a repair PLACE who left it running for 24 hours and the problem did not show up. Then took the tower to same place and left it for a day. Problem did not show up. Device manager says video card and monitor are working properly. Repair place wanted to replace video card (over $500) on the premise that it must be that since the monitor showed no problem when left connected so LONG. If it were the video card, why would the device manager say it was working properly? Some days it is FINE and most days the problem occurs. Sony computer, FLAT screen, 3 years old. Any ideas? Thanks.Device Manager isn't always correct diagnosing hardware... Remove the video card after unplugging all power to the machine...clean the contacts with rubbing alcohol or a pencil eraser and re-install it. Check to see if the fan on the vid card is running properly as well.Not to mention, checking to make sure the heat sync is clean. Does this card still have a warranty? I did check to be sure all was clean and the warranty is out on the card. The fan turns around so assume that it works properly. I will clean the contacts as suggested. Thanks.

Answer» I just put a video up on You Tube and I can't find it. It is called Art Movie and when I TYPE that in everything else comes up but my video. So I thought there would be a Link that says My Videos or something like that but I did not see it. Can anyone help I need to know how you find your Videos on You Tube? Thanksgo to your youtube channel by clicking on you username, its at top right of the screen. or try to search for your video by searching username?Sometimes the video processors can take a long time to actually show your video...

At the top right hand side of the page, click your username. Your videos will be listed under Videos.

3971.	Solve : First Robotics: Duel On The Delaware?
Answer» So today I went to my first ever FIRST Robotics competition. I gotta say it was pretty amazing. I am on Chuck 84. Our team didn't make semifinals (due to a piece of rug that wasn't TAPED down well enough getting stuck on us; consequently in the match after a staff taped it) but we got something amazing done at least. We took with us 3.5 tons (7,000 lbs) of books to the book drive, accounting for about half of all the books donated. So we got a big trophy for that. If you WANT, you can check out the website (http://www.fsrobotics.org/moe365//duel2008/duelhome.php). I can't get the webcast to work. Also as it was happening, me and my buddy were in the LOBBY on his laptop and we were getting the same timed out error on FireFox. I read on a forum that we need to open the link (http://asp.shinraikon.com/duelvii.aspx) through VLC but I don't know how. I'll keep messing with it tonight but if anyone could just tell me how to stream it, that'd be awesome. I honestly never thought that robotics would be quite this fun. I think this competition was so incredible. It's kinda like a free roam do what you want thing, with people walking all over in the pits, and dancing (see girl in skirt on webcast; she danced soooo much). They played music the whole TIME and it was like a great energy. I think people there were more enthusiastic than I've seen people be at sporting events. So much fun, I recommend FIRST Robotics.

3992.	Solve : Winamp not staying maximized upon first opening!?
Answer» I posted a thread in the Winamp forum on this, but didn't get the answer I was looking for, so I thought I'd try you guys. I'm running the latest VERSION of Winamp Pro on Vista Home Basic x64. Many TIMES, but not always, when I click on the Winamp icon in my QUICK Launch taskbar, the program briefly opens, then quickly minimizes back to the taskbar. I did check in properties and Run is set to Normal Window. I even tried switching it to Maximized once, to see if that would do any good. It didn't. I also check in Winamp OPTIONS and Always On top is checked. I also reinstalled the program right on top of the existing one and that made no difference. Then I completely uninstalled Winamp, then reinstalled it, but I STILL I get the same problem! And like I mentioned, the problem is intermittent. I'm stumped!

Answer» i have a 500GB SATA HDD. the power connection is in tact but the DATA connection has snapped off! is there any way that i can fix it or replace the whole connection front of the HDD? thank you for any helpSo you mean the hard drive itself is damaged?no as far as i know, the HDD itself is fine, it's just the port where you connect the SATA data cable connects to the HDD the black plastic bit that holds the cable in place has snapped off and it wont stay onThat means normally that whole controller piece needs replaced...problem is you need to get ONE as close to that batch/serial # as you can to get it to WORK and even then it's a crapshoot. Try EBAY for a dead SATA ...enter your serial# when you search.

3999.	Solve : Windows XP freezing during Printer Installation?
Answer» I am fixing my friends notebook. Her computer was badly virused and needed a clean install. I went ahead and reinstalled everything. Her USB ports dont work due to wear and tear from her siblings yanking cables off. I told her to get the PCMIA card that has USB connection. The Ipod connected and worked fine, when I connected her Cannon MP600 printer it asked to use windows update to locate the files. I clicked yes and everything seemed fine until it said hardware found installing. Windows XP froze literaly, nothing moved. I waited for 3 hours but nothing happened. I had to reboot by holding the power button I downloded the drivers from cannon and installed before connecting the printer.All installed fine, when I connected the printer. the computer froze I restarted the computer in safe mode and connected the printer. The printer connected fine and didnt freeze. I tried to print but it said the print spooler SERVICE is not available in safe mode I went ahead and restarted the computer again with the cable already connected. Windows loaded and just as all progams finished loading it froze. Only programs it has running in the background is McAffee Antivirus, Nero, and Groove 2007. I connected the printer with the same usb cable to my notebook and it works fine. The computer is a HP Pavilion ZE2000 Windows XP SP3 AMD Athlon 1.60 Ghz 256mb RAM 60 GiG HD Any ideas on how to resolve the matter ? thanks!Do you have the CD that came with the printer? If so, use it and REINSTALL the printer. Also, does it work properly if it's already attached?I did use the ORIGINAL cd but no luck. the moment i connect the printer via usb it causes windows xp to freeze. I erased printer drivers via uninstall, I CHECKED for any remains on the registry but still no luckTry this: While your printer is plugged in, or else it wont be detected in the device list; Right click "My Computer" (which, may be in the Start Menu, or on the desktop) and go to "Properties" Click the "Hardware" tab, and find the "Device Manager" Find your printer driver. Double-Click it, and go to the "Driver" tab, and click "Uninstall" This will remove the driver, after doing so, restart your computer and follow the installation instructions.
