I would do a format. Thats what I do every months anyway. Takes away all the sh.it that clutters up over time.

This is very good advise Manners, to keep your system running smoothy and at its optimal level. Like you Manners, i also format my system at least once a month.

I use Goldwave to split mp3’s. You need to use Lames mp3 encoder (free) to save the media to either mp3, ogg, wma and most other formats. It’s not free (45$) but if you want the license key to unlock this prog, pm me.

Me help Temptress??? :lol: :shock: . No offence Trapps mate, but me and Lisa aint exactly ‘cool’.

I’ll leave this for Owen/Burt or someone else.

Glad to see you back Trapps mate.

Xp always makes the default setting of the VM volume 1.5x of the physical RAM instaled as we already discussed. So this would mean she has only roughly 98 mb of pysical RAM? :? What physical RAM does she have instaled?

Further to this ‘if’ she has 256mb? of RAM and 144mb of VM making a total of 370 mb of RAM she should still definatley have no…[Read more]

If you were getting VM probs with the default setting of 384 mb resetting it to a lower volume of 286 mb would of surley made it even worse.

The default setting was 144MB. :?

So if the XP default setting for the VM volume is 1.5x of physical RAM, and the VM was set at 144mb of VM RAM, that means she has…[Read more]

I reinstalled XP the other day Ellen and straight away had the same problem. I set mine to 286, following Owens instructions and I`ve had no probs since. May just be the OS and not neccessarily anything suspicious on your puter? :?

Distributed denial of service (Ddos) is when a collection of computers are owned by an attacker/zombie master who then runs stress testing tools or bots against the victim.

Zombies are normally found by block ip port scanning for systems infected with Trojans listening on there respective ports, these scanners are very powerful ad can scan a…[Read more]

Well Ellen it seems that Spybot removed this FunWeb for Poshcat so you now know how to get rid of it.

Now set your VM volume to the default setting (384 mb) and see if you still get the VM errors. If you do then theres something still on your system draining at your RAM.

Poshcat your system is fine, although i’d advise anyone to run a registry…[Read more]

You have a small screen (14″) you may want to check if the game supports the resolution your screen is set to. If you know your comps, try setting the screen resolution to 960×600 instead of 768×1024 to see if the monitor displays the game properly.

It may be worth investigating the colour depth because old style monitors have problems running…[Read more]

LMAO, Now i will post a smug grin!. :D

See Owen, you should’nt of instructed Ellen to increase the VM volume and turn off the performance and graphics of XP, as i said all the way along in this topic you need to hunt what is causing the problem and not hide it.

I read this article about the adware/malware Ellen has been infected with.

Owen fixed it Ellen?.

Anyone who knows there comps would tell ya Owen has not fixed your RAM drainage, more like just hidden what ever is causing the drainage on the RAM in the first place by increasing you VM volume and getting you to turn off your graphics for XP.

Owen i take it as you did’nt know that XP makes the default setting of the paging file is 1 and 1/2 times the physical RAM installed on the comp and this would make the default paging file exactly 376 mb on Ellens machine with 256mb of physical RAM instaled.
