We should all be so lucky to have a psychic PC. Mine lately has been more like "sickic". LOL. Now you've gone and mentioned it and it heard you, so now it's going to screw up again. Hee hee. Who says A.I. doesn't exist yet. (Footers. ;-) -Clint Happy Holidays to all and God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://www.OrpheusComputing.com/Christmas-sales-specials.html http://www.ComputersCustomBuilt.com http://Computer-Hardware-Sales-Consumer-Electronics-Sales.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter Kaulback" < Hugh and Clint, I've been resetting the start menu to classic and back again for months trying to switch it off, it's been causing the "documents and settings" directory and "program files" directory to take a minute to open. System restore didn't do it either. Just now I turn on the computer and it's fixed. I suppose I had to ask for help to resolve it, so now my computer is psychic too? :) Peter Kaulback Hugh Vandervoort wrote: > This has something to do with "Classic" folder view versus > "Common > Tasks" view (See folder options). > I don't get the "Filmstrip" view until I drill down to > C:\Documents and > Settings\Hugh, and there you can turn it off and on with the > View menu. > If you're really getting this in C:\, something's wrong. > (That's a > technical analysis). > > > > Clint Hamilton-PCWorks Admin-OrpheusComputing.com & > ComputersCustomBuilt.com wrote: > >> I'm not sure what you mean Peter, do you mean clicking >> "View" >> then selecting Thumbnails/Tiles/Icons/List/Details?
