I've been removing applications to have more space. Running Win XP. After I remove an application using the control panel, it still shows up on program files even after I restart. Plus they show up in the registry. Is it safe to delete programs in program files and/or registry (under software) after I try to remove them using the control panel or uninstall from the progam files. Any other things to clean up the hard drive other than the usual stuff, defrag, clean up, disk scan? Thanks

I just put in a new abit kn8 sli motherboard and an amd athlon 64 3800+. When I turn it on, all the hardware turns on and the fans and harddrives work but there is no signal to the monitor. I was wondering if my graphics card wasnt supported. My graphics card is an ati radeon x1600. Ive already tried resetting the ram chips. Thanks for all your help.

Okay, lets say that I name a section of a page, lets say somewebsite/thisfolder.com, can I link it from another website? I know I can link it from another page in that folder, but could I link it from another website entirely, or even another folder? (ex. someothersite/index.com or somewebsite(the same as before)/thisotherfolder?

Confused? lol... well please try to help, these are the tage I would be using, just basic HTML.

It seems that the internet has made communication between people much easier, but since that communication is entirely written, with no face to face contact, it's impersonal by its very nature.

This in and of itself isn't a problem, but it seems that human nature is such that we feel the need to compete, and therefore act (pardon the pun) catty toward one another.

Am I imagining all this, or is most impersonal communication (i.e. not face to face) mean-spirited, or at the very least ultra-competitive, by nature?

My computer was having problems and acting kinda funny so I reformatted it and reinstalled all the drivers. I have an NVIDIA GeForce FX 5500 graphics card and I downloaded the newest drivers for this from their site. Now my computer will randomly shut down and restart. It doesn't seem to matter what I am doing at the time. I do send the report to Microsoft and the report I get back states that the stop error is caused by a video adapter device driver.

STOP 0x000000EA THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER
- or -
STOP: 0x100000EA THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER_M

is the error codes that are listed. It further states that there are 2 options to fix this ... 1) download the latest drivers (I have)..... or 2) Manually decrease Hardware Acceleration for your video adapter

I have done both to try to solve this problem.... neither one has worked. It wasn't randomly shutting down/restarting until after I reformatted the drive. Can anyone help me with this problem?
