Computer Problem Thread

[Dr. Wily II]

Ok, this is a trivial matter, but it's annoying the hell out of me...

You know when you save/open files, the subfolders and the files are all in alphabetic order, with the subfolders listed first then the files?
Well, just recently, the order is reserved; instead of a-z, it's now z-a, with the folders at the back instead of front.

If I access the folders directly (like Start -> My Documents), the order is maintained as it should.
It ONLY happens when I want to save stuff from the net, or I try to open them from programs like MSPaint/MicroSoft Word.
I know I can just right-click and then "Arrange by name", but it's consistent and annoying.

Oh, I tried to System Restore from a savepoint which I know is before this change, but when the system starts up, it tells me it can't restore to that savepoint...

So... Help?

[VixyNyan]

So... Help?

Let's try something here. Go to ANY folder (a folder that already is in perfect order) and follow the red rabbi- lines:



You don't have to set it to Details like it shows on the first picture. That's just the setting I use.

Open and Save should look right now. If it doesn't, I'm out of ideas...

[Dr. Wily II]

Yep, that did the trick.
Thanks Vixy!

[Rockmon]

I'm not quite sure if this is the proper thread but anyway, is there a way to remove my post count based title and have it only display my custom title?

[Shiki Tohno]

Nope.

[VixyNyan]

With a bit of heavy-duty editing on the forum code, it's possible. But it will affect everyone...

[Dr. Wily II]

Then again, that might make the forum code vulnerable to attacks.

[Shiki Tohno]

With a bit of heavy-duty editing on the forum code, it's possible. But it will affect everyone...

Which is precisely why I said it's not possible. Not only that, but it could also make the forum software vulnerable to just about anything if we make a mistake, as Wily said.

[Tickle Buffalo]

Who cares about titles anyway? Just pretend it's not there, it's not like anyone's going to care.

[Rockmon]

what about putting me and anyone else who wants it in to a user group that doesn't have a title?

[VixyNyan]

That's a bit unfair for everyone else...

[Rockmon]

well why not have a thread where people request to have their post count titles removed like we have a thread for usernames?

[Acid]

I think there might be a little misunderstanding, please, I would like to help:

[spoiler][/spoiler]

I needed a reason to post that.

[Flame]

well why not have a thread where people request to have their post count titles removed like we have a thread for usernames?

because 1, its too much work to modify the code, to do that, there would have to be a new user group based off of the members, for only like, 3 or 4 people, which is a waste of code, since you can just ignore it anyway,

because 2 post count titles = E [ray splasher] and lets us tell whos newer than others,

because 3, does it bother you THAT much to be a C class hunter?

[Karai]

I made these sexcellent hunter icons... I thought you like them

Btw, installation of a 4-in-1 driver for VIA chipset, and a patch for USB driver fixed my problem with gamepad. Works like a charm.

[VixyNyan]

I made these sexcellent hunter icons... I thought you like them

That is one person's opinion. The rest of us love them~

[Flame]

I sure do. thats for sure.

[Rockmon]

I made these sexcellent hunter icons... I thought you like them

it's not the icons I want gone, it's the text above them.

[Sky Child]

it's not the icons I want gone, it's the text above them.

Stop complaining about something that you obviously cannot change. You have your answer already, and that answer is no.

[Rockmon]

ok I get that I can't remove the text, but I didn't want to leave Karai thinking I hated his hunter icons.

sometimes Animated Gifs run at like, twice the speed in my Firefox. would you happen to know whay that is?

[Shiki Tohno]

Firefox runs animated GIF images at the CORRECT speed. If other software animates them at slower speeds, the problem is with the other software, not with Fx itself.

[Flame]

thats weird. With IE or any other, they run at their "normal" speed, while with FX they sometimes run overly fast. for the life of me, I cant figure this out.
I doubt that a Zero running gif is intended to run like hes racing Sonic the hedgehog.

[pyromonki12]

I have a simple question.

If I have a slave hard drive for storage, would moving the stuff from the primary to the slave increase my computer's memory and speed?

[Shiki Tohno]

No. Memory size, memory speed, memory bandwidth, processor bandwidth and processor speed have absolutely nothing to do with files being stored in one drive or another.
