Hi everyone! I am curious about this dll. It's included in the latest Chrome. It looks similar to .dlls installed by DirectX, but the highest of them is _43 AFAIK. And (also AFAIK) the latest DX is june 2010. So, my questions would be: - Does GOOG have access to something we don't? - Can we put it into system32 (or syswow64) safely? I already did and nothing bad happened. I'm hoping (more like praying) that other programs will pick it up when needed (again, on the wild assumption that they will be compiled with mysterious new compiler probably). - Maybe it's DX 8.2? - I want a x64 version of it! Yeah, not much of a questions, more like speculation, but what the hel…

I was looking for a way to silently install the INF associated with an add-on. I found this website, which explained how to do so. To sum it up, the command line should read: rundll32.exe advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection myinf.inf,DefaultInstall,1where myinf.inf is the INF that you want to launch and DefaultInstall is the section to use for installation. The 1 is an instruction to RunDll32 to run the command quietly, while a 2 would instruct it to use"no GrpConv", whatever that means. The numbers can be added together to get 3, which would instruct it to run quietly and with "no GrpConv". Please move that you will have to manually move the CAB file into a i386 folder for …

I am using Aero Peek very often to navigate through open applications/explorer items in the taskbar.

You may experience the following error message when trying to run a Scheduled Task. SCHED_E_TASK_ATTEMPTED 0x80041324 The Task Scheduler service attempted to run the task, but the task did not run due to one of the constraints in the task definition. The cause of this issue is in the Conditions tab of the Scheduled Task Properties. For instance, you're using your laptop on the battery power to run the task, but the Conditions tab has 'Start the task only if the computer is on AC power' enabled. This way you won't be able to start the task. Either plug-in the laptop or clear the checkbox on that option.

Windows XP with Service Pack 2 and Windows Vista have both a TCP/IP connection limit that limits the half-open connections of the system. If that limit is reached a new entry in the Event Viewer is created stating “EventID 4226: TCP/IP has reached the security limit imposed on the number of concurrent TCP connect attempts.”. ( I had a bunch of those logs in the event viewer ) Microsoft probably set this limitation to prevent worms and other malicious scripts from spreading to fast or to limit file sharing. Users will most likely notice that something is wrong when running P2P clients, slow downloads and timeouts are indicators that the limit is set. Slow browsing, no matt…

Everybody's familiar with "virtual memory", right? You've got a page file on some disk somewhere, and you've got RAM in your case. You know how to open up Task Manager, look at the Mem Usage column to see how much RAM stuff is using. You know how to look at the PF Usage graph in Task Manager to see how much memory you're using. You think you know it all. :doh: You're wrong. I'm going to give a brief overview of the concepts of Windows memory management, and perhaps enlighten you a little in the process. Next time you want to burst into a thread and say that Foosoft Transmogrifier sucks because it's using 40,000K in the Mem Usage column, maybe you'll think back to this a…
