That was the first thing I checked - right click and check the current attribute under properties - amazingly the read-only box was unchecked on both of my folders. Any other ideas?

I think I figured out why I have two folders in My Documents that I have pictures in are read only. I downloaded those particular pictures from my digital camera memory card onto a cd at a friend's house and then brought it home and moved them into a folder off of the cd. Are all data that are...

What exactly defines the celeron 1.4Ghz as a tualtiln cpu? Is it the pin configuration? Is it the cache? I'm using a Asus P3B-F MB with an Iwill Slocket II daughter card CPU converter. The card converts PGA370 to slot 1. The Celeron is a socket 370 type processor. Do you need more info...

Be prepared for some dry rash - skin will be wondering where the hell the hair went to!

I have an ASUS P3B-F MB with a converter card so I need to find a socket 370 processor. The spec for the MB is 100MHz FSB and supports up to 512kb L2 cache. I would like a Celeron for its value and the fastest I can find is 1.4Ghz. The Asus web site (see link below) has not listed this...

I installed the new Earthlink 5.0 internet software after dropping MSN 8 which is running on Windows XP - for some reason when I try to disconnect it wouldn't let me and I end up pulling the phone card off the wall in order to use the phone. The two interconnected monitor symbols would...

Thanks for all of your help and input. I'm kind of leaning towards getting a Yorkshire terrier or a shih tzu. So you guys know if either of them can handle loneliness? I'm single and work full time so I leave at 7:45 in the morning until 5:15, monday thru friday. I can come home to lunch a...

What kind of dog do you all have? Advantages/disadvantages? Want to get a small to medium house dog thats friendly to strangers/kids, obedient, doesn't bark a lot, and sheds lightly. I hope I'm not asking for too much but just thought I'd check with all of you.

Just out of the blue, whenever I boot up my computer, my hard drive is not detected right away and takes about 15 seconds to show up. Any ideas what might be causing this? The bios setting for detection of hard drive is set to auto. Thanks in advance!

I have tried reformatting but it locks up as well. It won't let me another words!

I'm not overclocking, and I have disabled virus protection in the bios. Not sure however where to set it in safe mode. I have had the memory installed for a while before this problem occurred so its not the RAM. Here's a more detailed description of whats happening: I boot up with the start...

Something wrong is happening to my hard drive. I might have accidently deleted the "logical drive" or something during the process?? I am using the Maxtor hard drive installation utility disk for remformatting and at the point when I click on yes to begin actual reformatting the thing locks up...

I found the "Load Onboard ATA BIOS" in the bios boot menu and is and has been set to "auto". The computer still will not detect the ATA100 driver during startup. When I push F1 it goes to a help window. Could I have a faulty hard drive? Thanks for your help!

Looks like I did reset it to factory default. I'm using a Asus A7V133 motherboard. The hard drive is connected to the IDE port even though there is a secondary raid port as well.

I think I messed up the bios setting by mistake. I accidently hit the reset button on the last page of bios and now whenever my computer restarts, the message "unable to detect ultra100 bios driver". What do I have to do to fix this specifically? Thanks.
