I am about to change the reservoir to toilet gasket and bolts due to a small leak. I've also noticed that the water, once flushed, takes longer than it used to to get from the reservoir to the...

I got to the shadow copy service and found it was off but I think I may have done that myself per previous responses. It's off in any event. Apparently it's been off for a while now with no ill...

Finally got it. Thanks Curlyben. Thanks Uhnonimus too. Now, to clarify, getting to VSS in the Computer Management file was strictly for the purpose of explanation, correct? I'm not supposed to...

Uhnonimus, I tried Start>Search Vss and didn't come up with any matches. Thanks anyway.
Curlyben, I managed to get to Services where the only option is "Help". Clicking on that opens another menu...

Thanks, Curlyben. When I click on Control Panel> Administrative Tools> Computer Management, I get a list of options along the left border such as System Tools, Storage, and Applications with a few...

Thanks once again for your response, Uhnonimus. However, when I click on Start > Control Panel I don't see an icon for Computer Management. I should mention that I have Windows 7.

Thanks, Uhnonimus. I was thinking along those lines myself. It seems there should be a comprehensive explanation of how we are to use the button without having to be a tech to get useful info from...

Thanks for the advice guys. I was pretty much just curious because I've used Defraggler for a while and then an update installed a button with no explanation. I was wondering how best to use it and...

Thanks for the response, Curlyben. I downloaded the free version from the link you supplied, ran it once, and then dumped it. Let me paraphrase what I said to them in the email form that opened when...

To be honest, I have no idea what it's for. It showed up in the latest update of Defraggler with no explanation as to what it does and why. I was hoping for some input from knowledgeable people who...

Got an email saying Curlyben has answered my question but when I click on the link it says, "Sorry, no answers yet". How do I get to his answer?

The latest version of Defraggler shows a button titled Benchmark Drive in the screen at the end of a "Quick Defrag". I would like to know how to most effectively use this new feature. I'm not sure...

Because I have recently discovered Google Voice Lite is not compatible with T Mobile pre-paid cell phones, I must withdraw the question. This info was discovered only after figuring out how to get...

I'm trying to get started with Google Voice's Google Voice Lite, with which I can make and receive phone calls through my gmail account while being able to keep my cell phone number. I'm totally lost...

If you mean the convertible top motor when you refer to "hydraulics" the answer is yes. The entire system works fine with the exception of that momentary hang up I mentioned previously and that only...

I have a 1994 Chrysler Lebaron Convertible which still has its original top. It has developed leaks and a few tears however over the years. I'm thinking of having it replaced but I have one concern....

I have Desktop Restore, which is supposed to save my icon layout after experiencing the resolution change and the icon shift originally described in this question. However, Desktop Restore only does...

Yes, I can wait 24 hours before filling the reservoir. I've got silicone gasket sealer left from a recent automotive application. If I use a sealant I'll go with that. Thanks again, Mark for sharing...

Ok, if I do decide to use a sealant should I use the type I'm most familiar with, automotive, or is there something specific to plumbing that should be used for this application? Thanks for your...

Thank you sir. You have been very helpful.

Thanks Mark. I have one final question. In addition to new nuts, bolts, and washers, should I buy some type of gasket sealant to assure waterproofing?

I have a toilet tank that is leaking from one of the two bolts that connect it to the bowl. Here's my question: If I only need to reseal the bolt(s) that mount it to the bowl, is there any reason I...

Thank you XOXOlove. That's what I think also. It's been a year and a half since I bought it new. I have noticed this monthly drain and recharge since it was new and seeing it happen again moved me to...

I think people are missing the point and it's at least partially my fault. This laptop was purchased new a year and a half ago. It has done this about once per month from day 1. It is not a new...

So, is this normal or not?

I have an Acer Aspire 5517 laptop. Every so often I notice the blue battery status light turns amber although it's continuously plugged in. When I check the charge level in the system tray I see that...

The other day I downloaded a gadget called DESKTOPTIMER. I ended up not liking it so I uninstalled it or it wouldn't install to begin with. I can't recall which. Now, after I boot I get two messages....

This is the second time that the response to my question didn't show until I answered that it didn't show. As soon as I posted it the answer did show. Peculiar.
As far as my question goes, boy is...

Once again I have received an email saying someone has answered my question, this time ITstudent2006 but when I click on the link I get "Your question hasn't been answered yet".

I have an Acer Aspire 5517 laptop with Windows 7. When I click on the system tray clock time adjustment menu I get a note saying that the clock is not set to adjust for Daylight Saving Time. This is...

My Windows 7 system tray clock doesn't adjust for daylight saving time. For some reason, after setting it manually ahead one hour but leaving the time zone at Eastern Standard Time (there is no...

Thanks but I've already been there. That's where I got the TV Guide gadget that I mentioned in the original question. It opens with prime time and is a nightmare to crank backwards to get to what's...

Ok, I'll take your word for it. I can't understand why, though. For a couple of years my Yahoo was my home page and up to a week or so ago they had a module that I chose that did exactly what I'm...

Ok, now I see NeedKarma's response. Thanks, but I'm looking for a feed that will give me a listing of my favorite channels displayed in current time instead of just prime time. If I go to the Zap2It...

I just got an email notification that NeedKarma has answered this question but when I click on the link I get "Sorry, no answers yet". I'm confused.

I've recently switched my home page from My Yahoo to iGoogle because my Yahoo no longer offers local TV listings. The TV Guide module for iGoogle always begins with prime time listings instead of the...

I agree. This Acer laptop came with a Microsoft Office 2007 60 day trial, beyond which it turned into a view only program. I think 60 days is adequate to make a decision on that but 15 days doesn't...

Thanks for the info, Appzalien. First, forgive my ignorance but what is "cracking"? Also, is there a maximum percentage of fragmentation beyond which I should defrag? I realize that the percentage...

Good explanation, Appzalien. Believe it or not I could follow the math. I understand it a little more now. Thanks.

Thank you both for your responses and sharing your knowledge. I think I have a clearer view of it now. Thanks again.

I basically understand what you are saying. I've been using Defraggler for so long now that I've actually forgotten why I switched from the one supplied by Windows but I seem to recall being in a...

Sorry. I have Windows 7 and I'm using Defraggler.

I was always under the impression that defragmenting would decrease my used space and increase my free space. However, when I run Defraggler I find the opposite is true. I thought the defragmentation...

I'm looking for totally free, no hidden costs, no gimmicks, no free trial only, no virus or malware, proven reliable online feeds for live major league baseball games. I just want to go to the site,...

Hi. Thanks for your response. As I stated, I have no problem with Firefox at all. My question stems from curiosity more than anything. It should work. Why doesn't it?

I just got an email saying that Curlyben has an answer to my question but when I click on the link I come back to my question but I don't see his answer.

I have 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium on an Acer Aspire 5517 with Verizon high speed internet. I also have Internet Explorer 8 and Firefox for browsers.
When I try to play Netflix instantly on IE 8 I...

I have an Acer Aspire 5517 with Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium and Verizon High Speed internet service. I also have Internet Explorer 8 and Firefox browsers. Here's my problem: When I want to play...

Items from my Netflix instant queue will play in Firefox but after a period the full screen automatically reverts to small screen and causes the monitor I'm using, which is connected with a vga cable...

A bit of info that I forgot to add before: When I insert the vga cable into the laptop the default position is video through both the laptop and the monitor.
