Cheers thanks. I kinda wish NT worked on just two user levels. I guess this is kinda good for security. I haven't done it yet, but explorer.exe has crashed twice on me. :|

Could be my imagination, though. :downs:

if i buy windows 7 oem and i change computer parts will it fuck up? And if i reinstall on a new computer will i have to buy another one? sorry im a noob
[QUOTE=DominicHax;19245484]if i buy windows 7 oem and i change computer parts will it fuck up? And if i reinstall on a new computer will i have to buy another one? sorry im a noob[/QUOTE] It's a game of goddamn luck, to be honest. With me, no, changing parts doesn't do shit, but I've heard others say that it does. For example, I got a new motherboard, CPU, GPU, RAM, PSU, etc, more or less an entirely new computer, everything new except for the hard drive, and Vista loaded up perfectly and was even already activated. It did, however, throw like 10 bubbles at me saying I plugged something new in.

Where are you originally from?
[QUOTE=toxicpiano;19249789]Oh, I see it's just that I saw the words 'English Canadian' and because french canadian is often associated with an ethnic group I thought you were born in Canada. Where are you originally from?[/QUOTE] Egypt. Moved to Canada when I was 12.

How do you change the icons in the superbar? I tried shift+right click and changed it that way but it doesn't apply it even after a reboot.
Clear the thumbnail cache.
[QUOTE=Panda X;19260563]Clear the thumbnail cache.[/QUOTE] Pardon my ignorance, but how could I go about doing that?

[QUOTE=j00g0t0wnd;19260665]Google's your friend. [url]http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/10797-thumbnail-cache-clear-reset.html[/url][/QUOTE] Ah, thank you very much! Edit: That didn't work. :(
I've been using Panda's SmoothVS for a while now, I love it. But you gotta fix the bug where if you have two windows open in the same program, they don't have a blue background! [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/downloader/smoothvs.PNG[/IMG]
[img]http://img22.imageshack.us/img22/236/cleartypeglitch.png[/img] Is it me, or does ClearType make the "8 reading" part look kind of.. greenish? Is there anyway to fix that, it's not a huge problem, but it's kind of distracting. [editline]05:25PM[/editline] Actually, it just makes all the "faded text" on the topics look weird.
It's a part of Facepunch. The more people reading, the less opaque the yellow.
I'm going to pretend I didn't catch the sarcasm and reply with "Oh ok" Oh ok.

Here I am with RTM and I haven't found a solution. The only thing I do remember is "registry".
