    Ms Outlook Reading Pane

    No problem :) Remember this is Microsoft they make their software with the 'average' user in mind, the problem with the reading pane is it's a great feature for those users "oh look I only need to highlight my e-mail and I can read it, great" yep all well and good until you get something dodgy...

    Ms Outlook Reading Pane

    Odd did you let the installer create the shortcut ? If so (well try this anyway) create a new one, do a right click > copy on the actual exe (say from the All Programs menu or from the actual folder on your hard drive) Paste as shortcut and edit it once you've done that. Or you could setup a...

    mmm it should work if you right click on the icon and go to properties and add the switch in the target field (remember the space ;))

    2 ways to do this: 1) Go to view > current view > define view then Messages with autopreview, choose modify > other settings, at the bottom of that screen uncheck the box that says show preview pane. not sure if this works with all version of Outlook or 2) Add a /nopreview switch on your...

    RAM Suport with Intel-P4-1.8GHz

    Welcome :) By buying more from them ? ;) Seriously this doesn't sound like a RAM problem. Messenger Alert Service is used to send network admin messages it's essentially a typically unused service - this is a classic way of spoofing you into downloading something nasty. I suspect you have...

    Possible to Convert laptop screen to vga or svideo

    Dan dan daaaaa there is always hope ;) If you still want to do this you can get an LCD controller board, you'll need to know the exact make and model of your panel then head over to here and you'll be able to get a model number for the board. These guys don't sell direct by the look of it but...

    Capturing VHS with Premiere Elements version 3

    This all depends on resolution and compression format. For a 2 hour video at PAL resolution 768x576 say using H.264 video and MPEG audio your looking at about 240gig :eek: however using XviD MPEG4 video codec it will be about 2.5gig :p experiment because some formats might not be compatible with...

    Capturing VHS with Premiere Elements version 3

    You shouldn't loose quality after all VHS is poor quality anyway ;) I'm not sure why this is happening but it's certainly a long winded way around of doing it. I've got one of these it works fine with a TV source - using this to capture directly will be your easiest and best bet, though you...

    Help - I don;t want to reformat ...

    rainman89 suggestion is good it's a quick and easy fix but can you clarify something, you say you tried to repair Windows again and it failed with the error you described but can you get into the recovery console ? (rather than the repair Windows) - when you boot with the disk in gets to the...

    sp3's

    Service packs contain all the previously released updates, if you keep it updated by patching and you have all of those then no you don't need to. It's more of a 'package' so if you have to install a new copy of Windows you can apply all the patches in one go. There may however be ones in a...

    There also been reports of certain anti-virus and adware/ spyware stuff breaking it as well. You could disable all you anti-nasties stuff change the setting and turn them back - worth a shot ! Firefox is excellent (check out the add on's ;)) but it doesn't work on some websites, Microsoft...

    Are you running Norton by any chance ? There is a know issue with IE7 where the update to IE7 overrides the homepage protection in Norton, you need to disable this then change your homepage then re-enable (if you want to). I don't have Norton so cant point you to the exact location but I'm sure...

    Have you done any update recently (Vista SP1 springs to mind) - if so rollback and see if that stops the problem.

    Macros in office 2007

    Edition mode :confused: I'm not sure what you mean by this, apologies but could you explain what you want to achieve, I thought you wanted to have border appear around a picture, which you can do even if you are not traveling (transitioning) between slides by either using the animation timings...

    windows registry

    Well it depends on the format of the data it could be in decimal or hex or a mix of numbers and letters and they may no necessarily be related to the 'data' you entered. There are ways but I would be reluctant to reveal them because: This wouldn't happen to be license key would it ? If so what...

    Macros in office 2007

    It's there ! right click on a blank part the toolbar and tick the Visual Basic toolbar. But why would you want to do this ? use the animations already in PowerPoint to create a border that appears either on mouse click or after a set amount of time - simple :p

    is windows vista good for gaming

    It depends on what you mean by good - visually you'll benefit if you have a DirectX 10 compatible graphics card as Vista supports it (XP doesn't). The latest games are written with DirectX 10 in mind so you'll also need a decent PC to run them anyway ;). As far as backwards compatability goes...

    20 Gigs of HDD space missing

    Before you do this I'd double check your warranty I know some manufacturers will insist this should not be deleted to honer the warranty but of course you may have already invalided it by removing Vista ;) But yes you can clicky it's for Vista but I think it should work with XP, another option...
