Damn sprint is more tempting now, get my wife the pixi and me the pre. But as my verizon contract isn't up till feb, I won't make a move until then. Maybe the next gen pre hardware will be out then or at least some details on it. I want the one with the SD card slot at least.
I'll agree that capacities will get higher and prices will drop. But I don't think they'll get that much faster. I think the controller chips are pretty good right now. I don't see how they can improve them.
I just removed OE via these instructions. Though I didn't delete all those dlls. Just the ones from the program files\outlook express folder.
Problem seems to be solved now. I'll reboot and see if it is gone.
If instead of changing the permissions on the dll, I change permissions on the registry tree, I get a different message:
Outlook Express could not be started. The application was unable to initialize the global options manager. Your computer may be out of memory or your disk is full. Contact...
And it can't access my archived pst files.
Anyway so there is an issue with the solution.
Now windows wants to install KB973354 over and over and over again.
I also have search in windows defaulted to the old search not windows desktop search. This is because most times I know where the file is approximately and I need to search inside the file for a specific function name or some bit of text.
So I only use windows desktop search to index my...
You need it if you want outlook to index your archived e-mails. I have huge pst folders with my archive messages that I search at least once a day. I can only keep so much mail in my main outlook folder due to size restrictions.
And just to clarify what was happening. Windows Desktop Search was incrementing the value everytime it started up. So I exited windows desktop search and started process monitor with registry events shown. Then I started windows search. Sure enough a search for "Compact Check Count" in...
Found a solution from millerswing85 here. It basically denies permission to OE. Windows Search no longer increments the value when it starts.
The Fix:
0. Exit Windows Desktop Search
1. Locate the msoe.dll file at C:\Program Files\Outlook Express
2. Right click on the file and go to...
I had forgotten about this thread but my compact check count is increasing. Currently at 69. Problem with registry monitor (process monitor) is I'd need it to start when the computer starts as it seems to occur right after/during login. But I'll give it a whirl anyway.
I moved from mint to quicken because my bank wasn't supported. I sure hope they bring mint up to the quicken level of support for banks. I didn't really like the quicken interface. I tried to use it for tracking what to pay and my paychecks but it didn't work very well in matching up the...
The problem with the subaru's is finding them. They are rare cars to begin with though it is probably easier in the northeast where I'm at. Then add that you are looking for not the base model and it becomes harder. Then add the fact that people keep them a long time and you get the idea...
So after the second rs25 not working out, I'm moving on to other options like the subaru legacy and the acura 3.2 TL. I found a TL local to me here. Quite a few miles but it drives well and seems good when I looked at it last night. Only issue is that the 1999 to 2003 acura 3.2 TL's have a...
I'd think the cat hair would be more dangerous inside the computer than the cat hitting the rocker switch. Clogging up fans and creating electrical pathways. I'd try to keep my cat out of there.
My cat likes to try and sneak into the bottom of my printer stand/table right next to the UPS. I...
I just remember having to update this bios to support 1TB drives.
See the F7 bios revision here:
http://www.gigabyte.us/Support/Motherboard/BIOS_Model.aspx?ProductID=2534#anchor_os
Anybody know if the intel GMA 3100 graphics chipset in the G33 chipset supports windows 7 aero? I ran the upgrade advisor and it says no. But it has directx 9 support.
Mine is supposed to be delivered today from newegg according to the tracking.
Guess I know what I'll be doing this weekend (aside from looking at used cars).
I see what you mean about the bios based on the screen shots.
The only suspects I see are the Power On function in the I/O Device Configuration
And the Console Redirection settings.
I think it is the wake on mouse setting in the BIOS. I know you said they are disabled. But unless the bios/chipset is malfunctioning, it seems odd. What motherboard is this?
Uda, you're on my ignore list so I don't see your posts. But I read this one. The kids will 99% of the time not be in my car, it will be just me driving to work. Secondly any car built by a reputable manufacture this century is not that bad in safety tests. Sure side airbags would be nice...
Yes if finding a 2.5 RS does not work out I am all over the place for other cars to consider. I'd have to pick one, I'm not there yet, so not making that decision.
Honestly if it makes above 20MPG I'd be happy.
I drove one, it moves just fine for me. I can't talk horsepower.
I believe in zeroing in on a specific model and year and becoming sort of an expert.
If the RS doesn't work out by the end of the november when the lease is up, I'll start considering...
Bah! Found a 2.5RS, automatic though, in my preferred blue color. But by the time I got there tonight, someone already put a deposit down. And I offered $300 over what he was and they still wouldn't budge.
At least I know they exist I just have to jump on them faster.
In my new house the computer isn't in my living room anymore. It is in a basement office. As such I'm really regretting building a desktop instead of getting a laptop.
This computer just sits in my basement office used once every couple weeks to pay bills and maybe once a weekend to download...
Bah! Still looking. Saw a nice 2001 subaru impreza outback sport. But it was priced so out of my range at $6950. That seems like a crazy price to me for a 9+ year old car. But you wouldn't believe the used honda prices.
The used car market seems hugely inflated to me.
Using process explorer I see that windowssearch.exe is using msoe.dll. This is the dll I couldn't delete. So I shut down windows search and deleted the outlook express directory. It initally was empty and then all the files just came back like a zombie.
Yes I removed it long ago. It is listed as 0.0MB in that screen.
But the directory still exists in program files.
And I can't delete the files in there. I tried. I get a system error and they come back.
I get a prompt that says the following when I start my computer.
"To free up disk space, Outlook Express can compact messages. This may take up to a few minutes."
I know how to get rid of it temporarily by resetting the "Compact Check Count" in the registry to 0. When it gets over 100 it...
why would they IPO now? Either they need the cash or they want to expand is my guess. Expand how though, seems like they have great coverage already?
And why go public? A profitable company still held privately? That is great.
Do the owners want to cash out or something? Maybe some of the...
My washer finally kicked the proverbial bucket... well it vibrated so loud it sounded like thunder. Anyway we bought a samsung with that fancy VRT. Specifically model WF219ANW from sears. We got it for something like $650 US.
It works and is so quiet we only notice the dryer now. Well you...
2000 Subaru impreza 2.5 RS with 159K miles. Dealer was at 4200, I offered 3200, he came down to 3800. It is pretty far away (2 hours) so I'm going to have a local mechanic look at it for me. Looks good on outside, seems like some wear on the inside from the pics. PM me if you want the link...
I got a chance to play with a pre my friend has. My only gripe is the hardware feels very version 1. They weren't kidding about the sharp bottom. And the difficulty sliding. I think I'll wait for the inevitable revised version.
my cfls have lasted 5+ years. A couple have failed early (less than 1 year) but those were failures in the base of the bulb that looked like arcing occurred.
That 2000-2001 subaru impreza 2.5 RS sedan from the article seems like a good fit. Found two on autotrader but they are both about 75 miles away.
The acura integra's are also not under 5K at least those year 2000+.
Indeed you end up with a very used car but hopefully not an abused one. But I'll be basically babying it with mostly highway miles and use as just a commuter car. The price range is determined by how much I can take directly from savings at this point in time. I'm not afraid of older cars. I...
- High MPG
Most of my miles are highway so anything about 20MPG highway or higher is fine. I average about 22-23 MPG now.
- Low miles on the odometer
I pretty much expect any car in this budget to be high mileage.
I was expecting around 150K, over 200K would be worrisome.
- Available warranty...
So my mazda lease is up in november.
So I've started looking at used cars.
This is a commuter car with 40 miles round trip each day.
I have a budget of about $3500.
What car would you recommend?
Where do I find good deals?
I've been tracking some stuff on ebay and autotrader.com and cars.com...
