  1. I know everything about system restore and the way it works. Just Like AVfreak said, system restore eats a whole lot from your harddisks. Basically, on my Win XP, I generally reduce the hard drive space allocated to system restore in order to save my HardDisck space. On my Win Vista, I run Disk Cleanup from time to time and I ensure that I clean up the system restore while leaving the most recent restore point which will only be taking a few MBs. sorry please, I have double posted again. My Internet connection sucks n in a bid to make sure that my posting reflects in T17, i try to send it again. Please delete my 2nd post. thank you.
  2. Well, I think the nVIDIAs are better than the ATIs in terms of performance andoverclocking capabilities. I would recommend you go for nVIDIA.
  3. Oh this is kool men. I know that Media player is not able to play DVDs unless supported by a third party DVD plugin. Will this hack actually make MEdia player play DVDs without a third party DVD plugin?Thats my major concern.
  4. it is called Maxthon 2.0 Web browser read this Exerpt from TechRepublic.com So to say, this is Internet Explorer in disguise. For one, I dont fancy using Internet Explorer. I would rather go with Opera, Firefox or Netscape Navigator. Reason is cos of internet explorer's slowness and it takes quite some time to load and exit cos every other software out there wanna add one plug-in or the other into IE. I wouldnt wanna test run this new browser basically cos it is based on Internet explorer.
  5. I am currently downloading Visual Studio 2008 Beta 3. I love Visual Studio 'cos of its ease of use. I hope this one will be good or even better than the others.
  6. I was checking out something in the techrepublic website and came across this download http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/. I read through the functions of the software and pasted below is wat I found . . . Now, come to think of it that the behaviours of this PersonalWeb is exactly the behaviours of spywares and adwares. People, please beware of these downloads lest you infect your computer before you know it.
  7. Oh my God!!! you aint using an antivirus program? OUCH! hey dude, thats the biggest risk you can take where your computer is concerned. Apart from contacting viruses through the internet, there are several other ways through whicvh your computer can get infected by some dreaded viruses. I would recommend you use Avast or PCTools Antivirus for free antiviruses or Norton or Microsoft LiveOne Care for paid ones. And make sure to back up your antivirus with a very good firewall. Again PCTools Firewall is recommended for a free one and ZoneAlarm Firewall Plus is recommended for the pain one. Please Ignore the paid ones if you aint got the money to pay for them. Now, i am convinced that your problem is because of a virus infection in your PC. Consider using an internet download manager/accelerator. WTF..you are trying to download via internet explorer's default downloader? OMG..for how long have you been using your PC? You sound more like you dont know much about the internet and the way it works. Anyways, Internet Download Manager is a very good example and it will download your files in real time. Take a look at this my post here ...http://forums.xisto.com/topic/49771-how-to-wipe-your-hard-disk-completely/. I have explained the procedures you have to undergo in order to reformat your hard Drive in there. Do read carefully though. Make sure that you have already recovered and backed up your files before reformatting as the reformat might permanently damage the files you are trying to recover. Hope this help you this time.
  8. I guess the reason why your computer is behaving in that wierd manner is most probabbly becuase of a virus attack. When was the last time you scanned your computer for viruses? DO you update your antivirus? Check to see if you have a very good antivirus and try scanning your compuiter thoughrouly. Assuming you aint got any virus in your computer, and that doesnt solve your problem, then, I guess reformatting everything will be the final stop. But, before you do that, you might want to use a file scavenging software to try and retrieve your lost files and save them into another location but your hard drive. A good example if File Scavenger. It is a windows based graphical undelete program that scans your hard drive's MFT records for records of deleted files and/or partitions. Maybe that would help you recover your files at least, But, u definitely have to reformat your HDD if you want everything to start working fine again. I hope that help you in solving your problems. Oh No.......another double posting. pardon me please and delete the 2nd post. Notice from BuffaloHELP: Second post deleted. You can use REPORT to let moderators know next time
  9. I dont really get what u are talking about. which tag did u say U are gonna battle with? An Admin or Moderator should please remove the 2nd post. It was due to slow internet connection and browser timeout. thank you Notice from Plenoptic: Please use the report feature next time you have a problem like this. That way we will find it quicker and no problems will be caused. It's right across from the edit button on the left side of the forum.
  10. I guess you have to go to Microsoft and download the English Language pack and update your Windows OS with the downloaded lang pack. BTW, which version of windows XP is Windows Crystal XP 2007? I think it should be a pirated version of Windows XP Professional. I know one thing though...Microsoft aint taking it kool with pirates n people who are supporting them by using 'em pirated products. I have seen a situation where someone's OS was locked up by Microsft 'cos he was using a Pirated Windows XP. Beware!!!
  11. That aint actually what you guys think. it is simply hardware DATA EXECUTION PREVENTION (DEP). It is not only the AMDs that support this. Even Intel processors starting from the Pentium IVs support this very useful feature. Actually, hardware DEP is all about making the Hardware, which is the processor, to suport the software, which is the operating system, say...Windows XP for instance, in fighting against viruses and malicious softwares and codes. It stops any file or progrm from writing malicious codes through the operating system.
  12. I cant view your website dude. It says THIS ACCONUT HAS BEEN SUSPENDED
  13. I think dat will be great. The admins should consider incorporating chat into Xisto so people can discuss with their friends in real time.

    Heya

    Welcome to Xisto dude and try to be of good conduct in here and everything will be just fine with ya.
  15. That was really a sad experience. Come to think of it...why would you be shy to tell someone about your feelings for him. there are so many different ways to let someone know wat you actually feel for him apart from using words.For Instance........| Always try to be nice to him..That will make him start wondering why and will eventually draw him closer to you.| Try to be close to him as always as you can. You should be able to know when he is happy and when he is sad. That will make him feel more at home in your presence and would eventually create the oportunity to talk him into becoming your LOVE.| Always remember that anger can cause more harm than good. meaning.....that you should avoid getting angry with him and also help him control his anger.If you try these, I bet you, he would most likely not think of any other girl apart from you.
  16. You know, I am almost on the verge of tears at reading tru this. Well, a girl once claimed to love me n I really loved her from the deepest part of my heart. But, quite unfortunately, this girl went after another guy after promising me heaven and all the angels in it. I tried to hold onto her despite every insult and humiliation she metted on me and she still refused, finally, I had to let her go. To my utmost surprise, her mom revealed something to me dat made me dislike her. She actually used me to gain her freedom from her dad. Now you tell me, what will you call this?. I couldnt control the anger and hate dat started building within me, but I decided to let the sleeping dog lye. It was a very painful experience for me, but I thank God that I survived through the whole incident and came out without suffering from Cardiac arrest (I believe I came very close to that). It is very painful when you truely love someone and she messes up.
  17. I know one thing, non-smokers are more at danger. It is better you dont start smoking at all. If you are amidst smokers, the best thing is for you t leave there if you are a non-smoker. Reason is 'cos the smoke been exhaled is even much more dangerous than the one they are inhaling and if you inhale this, you are been subjected to more danger than the smokers themselves.
  18. Cool...Just cool hateheals. I got so irritated with the game that I had to stop playing it completely. Later a friend of mine gave me some cheats with which I restarted playing the game again. But, you know, you dont enjoy the heat of the game while playing it with cheat codes.It is more like you are the lord in the game and nobody can kill ya. That is something I just dont fancy. I am removing all them cheat codes and playing it again as normal (except the infinite ammo).Hope I will be able to pass through there this time.Oh man, U know wat? I've been ramming the damn monster with as many SOUL CUBES as I can lay my hands on (Should be more than 25 of them by now n yet it seems more Like i am just playing with it.) Wat am I gonna do? does anyone else know?
  19. Hey thanks man. You know, I've been wondering on how I can get past the monster. It actually made me quit playing DOOM 3. Now I am gonna restart it again.Thanks dude
  20. Oh men, would I ever have believed this? WOW. Quite interesting.
  21. Nice tutorial, but it aint working on my Windows Vista ultimate. Tried to add the Copy to and Move to in the Windows explorer context menu, but it aint working. I had to delete the registry entries I added in there so as not to mess up something in my Windows Registry Editor. BTW, I just tried your hack on my Windows XP Professional and it doesnt seem to be working. Tell me one thing though, do I need to reboot my computer before the registry hack will start working? I know a program that can easily add this hack into my registry but I just wanna try out this hack to increase my knowledge. Could an Admin or Moderator please remove the 2nd post? It was a mistake due to slow internet connection and browser timeout. Thanks.
  22. My user name is a combination of my last name (Odo) and my first name (Michael). Thats very simple and it helps me remember my username very fast instead of me having to think first before I can type my username into any web form. I use that a lot though.
  23. I am currently redesigning my website and I have been considering using coldfusion as my supporting server in DreamWeaver. Now, I wanna know whether Xisto has any support for coldfusion server technology. I wouldnt want a situation whereby, after I have gone through the very tedious work of getting the website designed in coldfusion, I meet the bombshell that Xisto does not support this tech.So, I wanna know, does T17 support ColdFusion?
  24. I dont know exactly where the roblem is coming from. Right now, I am getting a 500 Error page anytime I try to view my Home Page. I cant say exactly what is hapening. Striker, I can see your website without much ado. I think there'a nothing wrong with your website. Someone should please do something about this.
  25. Ok guys. Now I am really fed up with this website of mine. I have already started redesigning the website at the moment. I know that this is one hell of a work for me but I think that will be the best thing for my current situation. I dont like all silly mistakes I made in there. I noticed there are a whole lot of them. You can have a look at the new home page (which is still under development) at SymCom Services - Nig. I made quite a lot of changes in this new one. One of which is the fact that I had to use the percentage (%) tag to specify the width of the web page instead of using pixels. this way, I think it is better for me to leave the automatic resizing of the web pages to the browsers. Looks neater to me or so I think. Thank you everyone for all your efforts towards helping me make the corrections on my website. I am most grateful to all of ya.
