IE Opens So Slow
Sep 22, 2008Until yesterday my internet worked fantastic. I could click on a favorite or my homepage and instantly be on the site. Now, all the sudden whenever I click on a page it takes 10-15 seconds (sometimes more) before the page 'hits'. It will then load as fast as before. The problem is this new 'waiting period' before the page loads. I have a high speed connection with 27795 kbs down and 958 kbs up. I thought maybe my browser had become corrupt somehow so I upgraded to IE8 but still have the same problem. My system is spyware and virus free (just checked twice).

May 3, 2009I was always able to click on the clip for an attachment to open in Word or Excel and it opened immediately, without having to save the attachment. All of a sudden, I can't do rhat. When I click on it, Word or Excel opens, but it tells me it can't find the file. If I click on save attachments, it does that to my documents and then I can open it up. I "repaired" Office 2007, in case there was any glitch that happened with that, but it didn't change the situation - What might have happened, and how can I fix it so that attachments can open directly when I click on the clip on the e-mail.
View 4 Replies View RelatedWord Doc Never Opens From Explorer
May 26, 2009Whenever I double-click a Word doc from within Explorer, Word opens and says it could not load the document, as if it could not find it.
1. I can always open the document from within Word.
2. And here is something I just found out: I just closed Word and attempted to open the document again from within Explorer, and the document opened without a problem.
Running Word 2007 SP2 on Vista HP SP1. I (just) checked the Event Viewer to see if it recorded the problem, and could find nothing...amazing, since it seems almost every mouse movement and keyclick is logged.
Hotkeys Or Keyboad, New Tab Opens?
Jul 3, 2009I bought a new dell studio laptop and it came with Windows Vista. I just bought it two weeks ago and its driving me nuts. TO the point that I don't even use it. When the letter "h" is typed in, history opens up. When the letter T is opened up, a new tab opens. THis is so frustrating. I searched the forum and there was a similar post to remove hotkeys. There was a link I downloaded and it was supposed to remove the hotkeys from registry.

Mar 31, 2009when I open Windows mail from the command bar it goes straight to the taskbar and I have to click it to open in a normal window. How can I get it to open in a normal window like it's supposed to do? This is in IE7 64bit, it opens normally in the 32bit version. When it is minimized in the taskbar any left or right click will open it so I cannot just right click it and use a command. I've tried all the obvious stuff and nothing seems to work.

View 7 Replies View RelatedOpens A Folder In A Single Window?
Jul 24, 2009We are all familliar with "Explore" and the Tree structure on the left side, vs "Open", which opens a folder in a single window. Normally, in Explore, as you click on the folders you travel thru the tree and can pretty quickly navigate thru the system, whereas with Open, you can get there, but it isn't quite as easy if you take a wrong turn to back out & recover. Explore is a good name for that option, as that's what it's best for. It also means you don't have to have two windows open to move files, as you can drag to any folder in the nav pane with relative ease. With Open you're better off with multiple open windows for those file relocation tricks..................

Apr 6, 2009I use Vista Home Premium. I have an open source app that I want to be maximized when launched. How can I do this?
I've tried maximizing in 2 ways:

In both cases, if I close and then re-open, the window has its default size.
AutoPlay Issue : No Longer Opens When I Connect The HDD
Aug 26, 2009Running Vista Home Prem 32Bit. This portable HDD is Powered off the 2.0 USB Port. The 1st time I connected the HDD to my PC, I saw Driver Installing...Driver Properly Installed. The AutoPlay Window opened...the one that provides selections, View Files, Etc. The AutoPlay Window only opened that 1 time, it no longer Opens when I connect the HDD. The HDD is running fine, I here the 2 Beeps when connecting, I can access the HDD thru My Computer, I can save and delete files...so it is working Fine. But since the 1st time, the AutoPlay Window no longer opens. I can connect a Thumb drive to the same Port and the AutoPlay Window Opens...so it is not the PC.
I have contacted the HDD Tech Unit and Dell (Purchased and is being connected to a dell PC)...both units said the problem was with the OS since AutoPlay is a function of the OS. I explained, all other devices connected opens the AutoPlay Window...if it was an OS issue, AutoPlay would not open for any devices.

New Message Window Opens Windows Mail
Jul 29, 2009I had no issues with Windows Mail as my default client and a new message window would open when I clicked mailto links. Earlier today I clicked a mailto for the first time in a week or so, and it tried to open Microsoft Outlook 2003, which is also installed on my machine, but not the default mail handler. Going into the Mozilla Firefox options, I found that for some reason it was defaulting to Outlook. I changed the setting to Windows Mail, but now instead of opening the new message window, it just opens Windows Mail.
