Name: Always
Ask Before Opening This Type Of File - Checker |
Tip
Supplied By: Byron
Hinson |
| If you once un-checked the box
that says "Always ask before opening this type of
file" but ypu have now wished you hadn't, you can get
the confirmation box to start appearing again by following
these simple steps. First open any folder and go to the View,
Folder Options dialog box and select the File Types
tab. Then find the type of file you want to be asked about,
select it and press the Edit button. In the botom-right
corner of the dialog box that appears you can check the box so
that it always asks you.

Name: Internal
Error Occured In The Windows Internet Extension |
Tip

Hinson |
| Some people n Internet Explorer
4/Win 98 have reported the above error - this can sometimes
be corrected by removing TCP/IP and then reinstalling it. If
you have no luck then - Try reinstalling Dial-Up Networking
(DUN) and winsock.
Note: Please use these options only
if you are sure of the error you are getting.

Name: Graphic Acceleration |
Tip

| If your Graphics programs crash
since installing IE4 try adjusting the Graphics Acceleration
in MyComputer/Properties/Performance/Graphics (button) and put
the slider in one of the first two notches. It got Paint
Shop Pro and Corel Photo-Paint 7.0+ going again for me. All
depends on your Video Board and Processor.
Note: For video problems you should
always check to see if an updated driver is available for your
video card as well.

| Tip
Name: ATI Video Tips |
Tip
Supplied By: Byron
Hinson |
| Here's another fix-it tip for the
ATI video card with IE4. Instead of reducing the windows
acceleration, install DirectX5. It loads a newer driver for
the ATI Mach64 card (newer than the one from ATI). It fixed
the lock up problem and another problem with desktop wallpaper
corruption after installing IE4. Bump that acceleration back
up!
Note: The DirectX 5 Drivers
reportedly correct problems with several video cards. This may
or may not work on your system or with your video card. Other
possible solutions include updated video drivers and adjusting
the graphics acceleration.
