Subject: Re: Windows XP Installation
Are you sure you don't have a stuck key on your keyboard? Since most
systems ask you to push any key to boot to cd on startup you may
have a stuck key and your bios is not telling you this.

Subject: Can a program run and not use the registry?
Hi all;
I have been using a nice little program called ATNotes, however the
author of the program has called it quits. It was a free program and
he did not get enough donations to keep it going. Too bad it was and
it the best of it's type.
Anyway I am looking for a replacement because you never know when
Microsoft will do something to break this one, and there is nothing
that comes close.
Here is my question, the author of the new program says on his website
that the program
"will not mess with your system files, or write to the registry"
is this possible?
Never been a programer so I have no idea about this subject.

Vince,
I tried this Sticky application, and it looks pretty clean.
However, FYI - when I first started it, ZA alerted me it was
trying to get out, as did MS Alert system. I denied both, but
you have to wonder why it was, and where it was headed.
