My computer has been allowing pop ups to...well...pop up each time I go to a new page, even though I have pop up blocker on the highest blocking setting. What could be the problem? Is it a virus or is there something I can check out to see if a program downloaded on my computer is allowing this to happen? Please help me out here!

If I want to copy a range of cells from one sheet to another sheet in macro operation I use the following codes: 1.sheets ("something").select 2. range("k1:k45").select 3. selection.copy 4. sheets("somethingelse").select. 5. Range("C1").select etc. If I copy these codes and paste in a command button and run, the 5th step code Range("C1") is taken as error. All other macro codes are being accepted as such in command buttons. Why is it so? What is the alternate code?. This happens during paste special operation. The program is running while in macro operation for the same codes. But the same codes when copied and pasted in command button, the program does not run through the click of the command button and an error is displayed due to step 5 above.

I have a new Dell XPS m1330 which came with Vista Home Premium installed. I would like to install Windows XP Pro but have run across a driver problem. The Dell support site does *not* have XP drivers for the audio or video cards. I managed to fins a suitable driver for the video, but I still have not been able to make the Audio work.

The actual card / audio chipset is a Sigmatel stac 9228. I have tried drivers for similar models, like the m1210 and the Inspiron 1501. No luck. I have tried a general web search for such a, even the Sigmatel / IDT web site. No luck.

Any ideas?

Hello, I'm going to be subscribing to Qwest DSL (I wish Verizon FIOS was here!!), but I don't want to pay the $8.00/month rental fee for their modem -- I'd rather purchase one. What brand DSL modem do you recommend? I'm mainly looking for something that is stable (doesn't require resets all the time so long as the DSL is stable), good quality, and will interface with my Linksys router. Thanks!

Hi people,

I want to upload a flash file into eBay but the file is over 350kb (0.35mb) and I'm afraid it might be quite big and slow to load for some internet user. What do you think would be the ideal size for something to be uploaded into eBay so that it wouldn't be too slow for an average internet to load? Thanks for your help!

Some body showed me and I forgot and I can't find my note book right now.

I think the piece of code printed a hexadecimal location.

I recently read a piece of C++ code in a magazine that did the same thing.
