Corona Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Thanks for the app! I kinda know what it's showing me but I still don't know how to find out if the dreaded AMD driver or whatever it is, is within my pooter or not. You want I should post the report for you?

Corona Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Yeah but why were the articles mentioning Hewlett-Packard AMD Intel-based processors or Intel-based AMD processors? I know that makes no sense, but that's what it sounded like what they were saying. Friggin boneheads. Anyway, sounds like I won't have those reboot looping problems if I update to SP3. Heh, a new cereal. Boot Loops! I'm waiting for Firefox 3 to come out of hair-ripping Mega Alpha RC before I try my luck with SP3. One behemoth at a time. Sounds like any FF3beta was better than the current RC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoKenny Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 I'm waiting for Firefox 3 to come out of hair-ripping Mega Alpha RC before I try my luck with SP3. One behemoth at a time. Try IE7Pro: http://www.ie7pro.com IE7Pro Features Enhance Internet Explorer's Tabbed Browsing Capabilities Double click to close tab. Open new tab from address bar Enable/disable tab browse history manager Enable/disable crash recovery Move the IE menu bar above the address bar Hide search bar Modify the maximum number of parallel connections to the web server Select the external program to view page source Super Drag and Drop With Super Drag and Drop enabled, you can open new links by simply dragging and dropping the link on the page. You can also Drag and Drop to search selected words with the default search engine or save the selected photo when Shift is held down. Mouse Gesture Mouse Gesture allow the user to execute commonly performed tasks (open/close a tab, go back, go forward , print , scrolling page etc.) by drawing a simple symbol on the screen. Crash Recovery Crash Recovery automatically restores all opened pages after a crash happened. Save Page to Image Flexible and easy-to-use tool that converts html page from any URL to image. It captures the whole web page's content into JPG, BMP , GIF , PNG or TIFF on the fly. Quick Proxy Switcher Different internet connections do often require completely different proxy server settings and it's a real pain to change them manually. AD Blocker Blocks all forms of advertising, including Flash ads, rich media, fly-ins, slide-ins, pop-ups, pop-unders, spyware and adware ads, and messenger ads. Greasy monkey alike User Script IE7Pro Script is to Internet Explorer7 as Greasemonkey is to Firefox. It lets you remix the Web via scripts. Inline Search Adds the inline search bar like firefox has, finds as you type, use the F3 and Enter Key to cycle between multiple results, highlight all results. Spell Check IE7Pro Spell Check will check any text you enter and alert you to possible errors by adding a red underline to any potentially misspelled words. I don't use its Mini-DM ( download manager ) as my DSL connection downloads quite fast nor Ad Blocker as I prefer hpHosts and MVPS HOSTS files as it is a much more efficient way to block ads and known malware sites.
