Im no computer guru exy, but its most necessary to "defrag" every once in a while.As well, you have to stay on top of downloads from Bill Gates. I also delete programs and stuff out of my comp that I no longer use.Dont let redundant stuff pile up in there.

Keep your comp pure, and keep it updated.

Thats about as much advice as I can offer on the matter of these infernal machines.

They are a portal straight into the Mind of Satan as far as Im concerned.

Okay, start with your temporary internet files.

Start up Internet Explorer, click on "Tools", "Internet Options", then on the "General" tab, click on:

Clear History

Delete Files (including All Offline Content)

Once you've done that, we can go on from there.

I'd also appreciate it if you retitled the subject line so there isn't a

swear-word in the main index, please.

I just had mine done,goshdarnit...I kept calling it "defrocked" until I was informed that that was what they did to priests...It can take a while...

[Refiner]

Start/All Programs/ Bill gates is right there in updates.

In "All Programs" / accessories/ System tools...defrag is there.

Defrag is fun to watch exy.

"Disk cleanup" is there in All programs/Accessories/"system tools" too. Just delete everything that it offers that looks unnecessary.

I go into "Control panel" and "add/remove programs" and also get rid of all the crap that Im not using anymore. Stuff like Kazaa.

thank you bunches, you are fragging great ;)-->

will let you know how i do once i get to doing it

[igotout]

Time for a new computer, exhockeyplayer.

Then they will be wanting yours all the time.

[excathedra]

i know i know yougotbrains godda.... mwah

[WordWolf]

The "disk cleanup" should have "other options" that include erasing old

Restore points. If your version is similar to XP in that regard, you currently

have 100 or more "restore points" in your computer, when 3 is more than I want.

If you run out of space for the defragger, this will clear some up.

=============================================

You can also call up a "search" for all files with the name "log" in them.

Almost all the logs will be unnecessary to keep. You can manually delete a few

hundred files that way.

my sincere appreciation

[excathedra]

what is (PNP or PNE or ....) I/O space ?

[ckeer]

Exe- If I remember PNP stands for plug and pray,

;)-->

Because you pray it don't PNE- plug and explode

[Tom Strange]

myseestorEx... is it on the "blue screen" that you get this message?

[socks]

"DGN/BIT" = "Daggnabbit!"

If you get that message, look out. You may have a wild hare in your system.

[Steve!]

I saw "goshdarnit" and "socks" - hmmm, I think there's a hole somewhere.

[excathedra]

wish i had some pot to watch the defrogging thing.... well i guess i could grow some ;)-->

[socks]

Zag giggidy and boy howdy! There's holes in them darned socks!

Defrog - a new procedure, excat? When you defrog, does it count the rivets in your computer?

:P-->
