On a closing note, you can set the paging file as high as 1152mb on a system with 256mb (not recommended) but the paging file should be instaled on a seperate partition on your HDD and kept seperate from your program files, this will enable your comp to read the paging file much quicker, but you will still suffer from high HDD usage when using…[Read more]

I didn’t play around with anything honest guv !!! I’m a firm believer of “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it” unless “you know someone who can make it better !”

I had a brief look at the paging size today [but was reaaallly busy :roll: ] and it was still around 390’ish so I assume it only increased it slightly ???

Sorry Morty ignore the post above. I thought you said your paging file was only 1mb.

The reason your paging file was increased in volume was because all those applications running are too much for a comp with 256 mb of RAM to handle so the paging file increased its volume to handle these applications and to stop itself from crashing.

If it ran…[Read more]

Well if there’s no navigation ball to clean Soulie, it means the mouse has had it.

LMAO a mouse with no balls? What sought of mouse you got Soulie?

I had this prob were the mouse strangley moves itself.

Soulie, have got clicklock on? If so turn it off.

Turn your mouse over undo the fastner that holds the navigation ball in place and make sure theres no debris or crap in there if it’s clean go out and buy a new mouse, cause that one’s had it.

Cheers for that Dave – I will let Anubis do the honours with Lucky (if there are any to be done that is) as he is far more technically proficient than I am. Anyway my wife may well want to delete my Operating System if I went ‘surfing’.

As for your ME issue. As ME does not require registration as such you could borrow a copy of…

Hi PB.

I’d do a clean instal any day before i’d use system restore. I have used systems restore once and i never would again, as it butchers your system.

I know that if i was actually sat at Daves computer i’d definatley of removed this Minibug/Weatherbug. I could only take Dave so far as my knowledge of the ME OS is limited as i have never used…[Read more]

No probs Dave. I think a clean OS install maybe your only solution here.

FFS, LMAO.

Dave i’ve tried all i can to help you out. According to the Hijack log the file has already been deleted which makes me think you maybe getting a false positive from Norton?.

Right Dave before we start deleting anything can you go start>my computer>drive C>windows>system 32 and look if you can find this MINIBUGTRANSPORTER.DLL and tell me if it’s there?

The systems32 folder stores all dll’s alaphabetically.

Dave Hijack has found it but i need about half hour to pull this log apart dont delete anything untill i post.

no AWS file there !!!!

No it’s a hidden file it has an extension of .cab you wont find it in the programs directory.

You need to download Winzip then download hijack this (make sure you save Hijack this to your desktop) and post the log Dave.
