Thansk, that prompted me to remember my problem. When I was going to that pane, it only had "change" to change the application it opened with, and "restore", where the "advanced" button should have been. So I clicked restore then the "advanced" button took its place and I managed to do what I...

I'm on XP Pro SP2. I am wanting to add new entries to the right-click context menu of files in windows. For example, on a .jpg there is currently: Open Edit Print Resize Pictures Preview Refresh Thumbnail ...And I want to add one which says 'Edit with photoshop'. How does one...

Just tried that, same story :(

Thanks for the response. I tried that a few days ago and it hasn't fixed the problem.

As far as I'm aware, if paint can open the PNG, just save it as a BMP then rename it to .ico.

I am having problems with drag & drop on my machine. It seems that at times it just doesn't work - I try to drag a file for example and it doesn't move with the mouse pointer. The icon stays in place and there is no error message. If I have firefox open, for example, I have it as the active...

Running them both at native resolution is fine. The only thing you'll notice is that they will literally be those sizes - so if your monitors are oriented so the bottoms align there will be an area at the top of the 24" where moving your mouse pointer to the edge won't move it onto the 17". This...

I'm using RivaTuner 2.0 final and the 97.44 drivers. It's a card from Sparkle, if that matters. Anyhow, on another forum I saw a thread about changing your fan speed using RivaTuner, and the benefits of having it on maximum. I looked in the hardware monitoring section of RivaTuner and it...

Thanks very very much for that info, I have had plenty of trouble with my previous XFX card overheating and I just assumed that I'd get temps similar to my CPU!

You may have seen my struggles with my 8800GTX on this forum, however I've now got one from another brand (Sparkle) and the fan seems to be running. I am wondering if my temperatures are okay. I've not had a crash yet, but I haven't done much testing. It idles at 66 degrees C in windows, and...

By this do you mean a third shot? I've had 2 cards with exactly the same problem so far. I suppose they aren't a bad brand, my brother has a 6800GS he's had no problems with from them. I'm just afraid of getting another card with the same problems yet again. Overclocking isn't an issue for...

I don't know about who is a good manufacturer for cards - can anyone suggest what brand I should go for? Is there much difference between different branded cards? Would I be paying £70 more for exactly the same thing?

I have a Stacker 830. I have 2x 120mm + a 120mm PSU fan for exhaust and 6x 120mm for intake. My room is very cold, but as I said - the fan on the card isn't starting up and I'm certain that's what is causing it to overheat.

I'm going to be keeping the PSU. My brother needed my old one so I might as well keep this now. The artifacts in games varied depending on the game. In FEAR everything turned bright pink but the geometry was fine. In Oblivion the HUD became garbled and the geometry was fine. I don't know if...

Okay, I bought an OCZ Game X Stream 700W PSU. I plugged it all in, the PSU has two separate PCI-E wires coming from it as the XFX box says the card requires. Still the fan doesn't start. So, can anyone tell me: Have I just spent over £100 on a PSU that I didn't need? Have I sent back...
