BIG BAD WOLF:Nope!  None worked. 
But thanks for the help.

Gordon: I thank you too.  None worked either

Gordon Shumway:Thanks for the reply.  No it's not hidden.  I already checked that.  And I did what you said, running explorer and stuff, and it didn't work. 

Hi all,

My taskbar has suddenly disappeared.  Everything is fine, I just don't have my taskbar and start menu on my desktop.  Can anyone help?

Thanks.

Maybe the picture of an actual RAM can help more :-)

Marfitalu:The only French sentence that I understand is Je ne parle pas Francais. 

NOT a floosie:Look, just when the PC starts up, when it says press DEL, do it and it should say something like "entering setup mode."  There, on my PC I have a choice saying "PC health status" and when I enter on it, it says CPU warning temperature.  Enter on it and it gives you some choices to choose from.  Choose something like 70 or 80 degrees, or even disable the CPU warning system.

Marfitalu:If the RAM isn't placed properly the system doesn't boot.  I don't think it is that.

NOT a floosie:Look for something like PC health or something!

NOT a floosie:I cannot remember.  Try all of them

NOT a floosie:Yeah, press DEL and then you'll go to a page which is usually red or blue in most cases.  Then examin all the parts of it to find something that says your PC is supposed to warn you if the CPU temperature goes upper than a ceratin degree.  That temperature shouldn't normally be less than 70 degrees.

Marfitalu:You do.  In my BIOS settings, I can choose for my PC to warn me if the CPU temprature goes upper than a certain degree.

Marfitalu:Also, it may be because in her bios it's already set a high level of security or health for PC.  For example they have chosen the CPU temperature to be 30 degrees o up for the PC to warn them.  She definitaly has to look in the bios.  

Rose:If you're using XP, try creating a checkpoint now, when done, try using one of your previous checkpoints that your windows creates and restore your windows to a day or two before today.  If things are O.K., then the problem is with what you have downloaded, if not, they have other source.

Binabik:It replaces the old one.  You won't lose anything.

I'm using Firefox.  When I view a picture an dthen choose for it to be saved on my hard drive, it follows all the necessary process but doesn't actually download anything when I go and check my hard drive!  It doesn't give any errors or anything.  Can someone tell me what's going on?

MadMonkey:Thanks.  I meant if you install a windows on your second Hard Drive, then it'll recognize it of course!

MadMonkey:I think 98 is the best.  You can burn a DVD or two from the files you want from that Hard Disk too.  If you have a DVD writer that is.

MadMonkey:No, not xp.  I suggest you put 98 on it.  It's both faster to install and work.

MadMonkey:I can suggest one more thing.  Install a windows on the second Hard and try using that as a master.  It may work.

MadMonkey:I have no problem when I plug a second hard disk in while my system is on.  I'm using windows XP too.

MadMonkey:Why don't you try plugging in the Hard disk while your system is on?  

MadMonkey:When you reboot your system, after it starts press Delete and check if your motherboard knows your Hard drives as well.  Jumpers alone won't work.  I could tell you where exactly to look, but it's different on different moterboard systems.  Press delete and check everywhere and you'll find it.  It says that your primary slave is a hard disk an dsecondary slave should also be the other hard disk.  

imsoaddicted:Actually I used to have one that had 5 buttons and 2 scrolls!

imsoaddicted:And none of them works?  Then the only thing that comes to my mind is that the port they get into to get attached to the back of your case has some problem with it.  Are they using USB ports?  If yes, try changing the port and see what happens.

imsoaddicted:Are your mice of the type that have small ball-like plastc things under them or do they work by "red light" system?

Fencer:My PC has 2GB of RAM and runs on a 3200 Pentium 4 processor.  But I have these 'freezes' too.
