Registry Cleanup by
evenicoulddoit
Hi All,
I've tried using the Microsoft Answers forum... but they've not
exactly been helpful. I also have a 32bit OS, sorry!
A while back in attempting to check and correct my registry of any
problems I downloaded a program, RegSeeker (from Softpedia), which
edited permissions and has caused great problems since. (The program has
been verified as non-malicious, but clearly it doesn't do it's...

Inglo[_2_]

searching through them by file type. The search will return x number of
files of type a, b, and c. Where x may be a few thousand files. I then
select all from the search return window and delete. The "Preparing to

half an hour. I'm at 23...

I was hoping that someone could either answer this question or direct me to a
place where I could find an answer in another forum. I thought this was a
good place to start.
I have a PC game called Air Conflicts on my Dell Inspiron 1501 running Vista
Home Premium.
There have been a couple of times recently when my MS Calendar interrupted
the game by popping up an event reminder. Then, I get...

Dear All,
Would this be the right place to ask questions about registry errors?

of these registry error? It won't remove them without a payment though.

desktop freezing when idle by
djfergy
I have Vista Home Premium 32bit. When my PC becomes idle for different
periods of time, my desktop freezes. The little blue circle doesn't
move, mouse doesn't work, Ctrl, Alt, Delete doesn't work. I have to
turn it off and on again to get it to work.
As long as the system stays busy with something in motion, everything
is terrific. This has been going on for a couple of weeks &...

Failed drive? by
Hanlet
Hi all,
For a few weeks my Laptop (Dell Inspiron 1525) had been randomly
freezing, and earlier today it froze. I did what I usually do, which was
restart and wait, but this time it just wouldn't turn on; it kept
telling me it had failed to start correctly. After trying again and
again with the system repair, with no luck, I tried safe mode, which
still wouldn't work.
After exploring different...

Out of focus background by
dkling60
Why is it all of the sudden anything I choose as a desktop background is
enlarged and out of focus? Not just images I've downloaded, but the "stock"
backgrounds offered by Windows. I'm getting close-ups on both. I've tried
re-sizing them but no soap. I haven't changed any resolution settings either.
What gives?

Wi Fi by
Connie[_3_]
I have a laptop and would like to be able to use it at Starbucks or Panera
Bread. I don't understand how it works. Is there a charge and more
importantly, how do I connect? Will all laptops connect or do I need a
particular software? At home I use a router from my desktop.

Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol Service by
Ronc
Won't start... Error: 1717 The Interface is Unknown
Aside from reinstalling the OS, can it be fixed? All I have to work with
currently is an image disk provided by the manufacturer of Vista Ultimate
which would start over with old drivers and old Vista (pre SP1).
