Dragging Small Windows Every Time

Aug 23, 2005

The ability to drag any small window with all the contents. Not just the outline of the window. I have tried again and again to get it to stay on and checked, all to no avail. I don't understand why. At the desk top I right click anywhere to get to very small window with (properties) at the very bottom. I then click on Properties and get (Appearance). Next I click on appearance tab to get to the window that has the (Effects) button. Next, I click on the effects tab and look to see if the little bitty square next to (Show Window Contents While Dragging) is checked. And it is never checked. So I check it to get the effect of dragging the contents with the window as I move it around the screen.

Subsidiary Windows In Showing Too Small

Mar 28, 2008

When a subsidary window pops up in various programs they are too small, and i can't view the entire box.On the left side and in the bottom of the window there are several boxes that i can't view the entire content of. sometimes, depending on the program, i'm able to "fix" the problem by resizing the box, but other times the boxes are not resizeable. It's getting to be really frustrating.

Home To 7 - New Small HDD

Oct 13, 2009

I have read all the posts I could find here about going to Win 7.So I know I need to have a clean install done.Will be taking comp to comp store,learned the hard way to stop doing things when I'm not sure what I am doing.My question is,since Win 7 will be 64 bit,can I install 4GB of ram instead of the 2GB that XP only supports, mobo says only use 2 GB,a GB in each slot but I'm hoping that is because of XP, the mobo is 64 bit capable, in that it supports both 32 bit and 64 bit.And should I get a new small HDD to have the XP moved to,or can all the files and folders from XP be transferred to Win 7?

Dial Up Connection / Small Screen Comes Up

Mar 30, 2007

When I click on a link which asks me to send an email, a small screen comes up headed New Messages. The From and To fields are already filled in correctly when it appears but when I type my message/request/whatever, along comes another screen headed Dial Up Connection and then Connect btinternet.com (my ISV.) My name again is correctly filled in with a space saying if I want to change this password what password? to enter it in space provided.

I have tried every known password which I have ever used and when I press to connect, another little screen pops up telling me that it is 'unable to establish connection.' how to get around this? I end up copying and pasting the original link into my btYahoo mail box and sending it that way. A tad long winded

Reformated - Reloaded Home Small?

May 27, 2006

After two weeks of fighting, I finally got our lap top to reformat and Reload XP Home. I have followed the steps on re-installiing XP that was posted several times, my problem is it has been "stuck" on the wallpaper screen, with the bottom task bar loaded and the recycle bin icon present. The light indicating the drive is busy has stayed on and I can hear the disk moving. Does it normally take an hour and half to get this far after pressing the " finish" button on the install?

Little Blinker Small Light - Lost Background

May 29, 2008

my eyesight just ain't what it used to be. When you type an alphabet letter or number, there's always a little blinking line after the letter, or if you want to start a new line, you would hit the "enter" key and this little blinker moves to the beginning of the next line so you'll know where the next letter you type will be. When you hit the space bar it moves one digit to the right.

My problem is that this little blinker is so small and light, it gets lost in the background. The question is, what is the name of this little blinker and how do I make it a little bigger and darker. I found the one for the mouse cursor/pointer/i-beam but can't find the name of this other blinker.

Display Errors Seeing Strange Symbols And Small Text

Dec 4, 2007

I was in a program that ran a 1280X1024 4XAaliasing 32 bit color and I was also watching a movie from netflix in the background(talk about multitasking). My normal desktop settings are 1024X768 16 bit color. I switched to view a nice scene in the movie to the movie and then switched back to the program. Problem was when I switched to the program the computer sort of pinged 3 times quickly and then reset.Now in various odd places instead of text I see odd shapes like empty white or black squares, circles, lines or triangles/arrows. It's sort of like wingdings characthers or like characthers that the computer doesn't recognize. Immediately after the restart I switched the DPI in display setting from like 95-96 to 120DPI.

IE started acting funny in that it started displaying text very small. For example, on this very site's homepage, under Tom's pic in the welcome section, the text is very small. It used to be very clear and readable, but now its a real strain on the eyes. Its happening on all pages, not just this one.
