I've searched through a few of the "master the vi editor" sites but can't seem to find out how to use the tabbed functionality like I want to. Note: I'm not referring to the tab button or indenting, but the actual tabs for opening multiple files within a single vi command prompt.

im typing this from my Wii. I live in P.R. so Olga the storm that is passing here had some a strong gust, and the lights whent out for about 5 minutes, I was playing crysis with my ATI HD 3850 with a 300w PSU and a Pentium 4 proc, i knew i neede more power but i was going to buy a new psu this thursday on CompUSA (i bought my 554ge gateway pc there) because of the clearance. i think i waited too much but the psu was working good with my HD3850 but after the power outage i turned on my pc and the power button kinda flashed/pulsated and the fans where pulsating too and the psu led at the back, no prob i thought, i unplugged it pressed the power button, plugged it again and the same happened i tried another outlet, changed my gpu and it kept the same. i even tried switching the little mobo jumper thingy and it is still the same, even after 4 hours. (if dead) I would like to know wich power supply available in (zip 00617) compusa to buy? (around 500 watts

Anyone know if there is a way to execute a program from a batch file and then continue executing the batch file?

I tried executing the program from a separate batch file and using "Call" to call that batch file, but the batch job just waits for this program to be closed before continuing.

I need the program to execute and remain running while the batch file continues...

A colleague and I discovered that the computer that had the drivers for the printer was not connected to the printer. He switched the towers so that he could access the printer. What he discovered was that the tower with the drivers for the printer had a virus. We found out that the computer has Symantec on it so he ran an upgrade from online .A while ago he went to use the computer again and was checking for the virus to find out if it is gone. What is happening now is that a red light is blinking and the computer is emitting an annoying beep. Is this normal when a diagnostics is being run? How can we get rid of this annoyance and debug the computer?Please help me urgently .

I have a Mac OS 9, so it's an older Mac computer. When we first got it, it worked just fine. Now it's very slow and when we got on the internet it just shuts down or it freezes really easily. It always says we're low on memory. We want it to stop doing that and hopefully become a bit faster too. Any suggestions?
