A Better
Mousetrap!
Would you believe a better word processor? Sometimes using Word, Word Pro or
Word Perfect may be overkill for a small editing job. Try Crypt Edit! It's one
of the most powerful freeware word processors and a great replacement for the
standard Windows NotePad and WordPad. Crypt Edit requires Windows 95 OSR2,
Windows 98/2000 or Windows NT 4.0 or later to run. No additional DLLs or
whatever are required. It can easily create, protect, modify, post and print
your documents. Best of all, it's FREE. Get your copy by clicking

BAD
MEMORY If
you receive either of the following messages during Windows 98 startup, you may
be suffering from physically bad memory chips.
- Invalid VxD Dynamic Link Call to Device 3 Service B.
- While Initializing Device <filename> Windows Protection
Error. You need to restart your computer.
If you attempt a startup in Safe
mode, you may receive this additional message.
Himem.sys Has Detected
Unreliable XMS Memory at <address>.
Try swapping out your DIMMs
or SIMMs until you can start Windows successfully. You can also try limiting
the amount of memory that Windows uses to less than 16 MB to see if that cuts
out the bad memory.
Boot Windows into Safe Mode Command Prompt Only.
In the System.ini file, add the following line to the [386enh] section.
MaxPhysPage=01000
If you suspect that other errors are being
caused by unreliable memory (for example, drivers not being loaded, other
startup errors, blue screens, etc.), you may wish to variably limit the amount
of memory that Windows 98 is allowed to use in your attempts to identify the
problem.
The easiest way to do this is to use the Windows 98 System
Configuration Utility. To run this program, click on START and then RUN. Now
type in "msconfig.exe" and then click OK. On the General tab, click Advanced.
Now, select the Limit Memory To check box, change the value to 16 MB or another
value, and click OK.
Reboot the system and see if the restricted
memory usage improves the occurrences of errors.
20 THINGS IT TOOK ME 50 YEARS TO LEARN
- Never--under any circumstances--take a sleeping pill and a
laxative on the same night.
- The reason why the human race has not achieved, and never will
achieve, its full potential is summarized in one word: meetings.
- There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness".
- People who want to share their religious views with you never
want you to share yours with them.
- When God, who created the universe with all its glories,
decides to deliver a message to humanity, He will NOT use as His messenger a
person on cable TV with a bad hairstyle.
- Do not confuse your career with your life.
- No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too
seriously.
- When trouble arises and things look bad, there is always
someone who perceives a solution and is willing to take command. Very often,
that person is crazy.
- No one cares if you don't dance well. Just get up and
dance.
- Never lick a steak knife.
- Take out the fortune before you eat the cookie.
- There is no clear and compelling reason why we observe daylight
savings time.
- Never say anything to a woman that even remotely suggests you
think she's pregnant, unless you see an actual baby emerging from her at that
moment.
- There comes a time when you should stop expecting other people
to make a big deal about your birthday. That time is age 11.
- The one thing which unites all human beings--regardless of age,
gender, religion, economic status or ethnic background--is that, deep down, we
ALL believe we are above average drivers.
- The main accomplishment of all organized protests is to annoy
people who are not in them.
- A person who is nice to you but rude to the waiter is not a
nice person.
- Your friends love you anyway.
- The most destructive force in the universe is
GOSSIP.
- The most powerful force in the universe is LOVE.
"Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me
and I learn." - Benjamin Franklin The Truth Is Out There
