I have nothing to offer on the xp troubleshooting front, but I was curious if is there was anyway to download videos from YouTube? Much like fics, there are vids I want to make sure I never lose track of.
When we landed here you said you needed a few days to get space worthy again and is there somethin' wrong with your bunk?

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Note to self: "search" is there for a reason.
Thanks! Have fun storming the Windows!

The CD is Dell's install of Windows SP2.

I'm back into Windows, and all my data seems to be there, but I've lost every frelling setting. I started this at 10 a.m. and dog knows how long it's going to take me to reset up everything and figure out all those damn passwords.
@#$% computers.

@#$% Windows, most accurately.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Oh, and Ginger... Now that you are back into windows, I recommend TweakUI [link] it lets you designate an account to autologin on boot and a dozen other tweaks.
You can use it for the one thing or many. Just download, install and then run the program find the autologin section. Screenshots here: [link]

ION, I "recharged" a 3v button battery (CR3025) by taping it carefully to a 9v for 1/2 hour.
If it gives me a few blood tests before I can get to the store for a replacement, that'll work out well.

Y'know, I've had similar problems on Macs through the years, too.
So it ain't just a Windows thing.
(Signed, debated even posting this, but finds this thread useful, and really doesn't want to have to unsub from this thread again due to other people's kneejerk reactions against a product I on which I work.)
