Yes, I did install both SP1 and the update. Asura

I meant is the Zone Alarm Vista edition that you are using a beta version? What happens when you try to install it? --PerspX "Nowadays, security guys break the Mac every single day.

Yes it puts load on Microsoft's server, but probably that's worth it for MS because they get quite accurate statistics of what sites the IE users are visiting.

I recommend the one called "Ubuntu".

Reading a text file is trivial, and to change the string in a listbox, I always use DeleteString and AddString. In fact, if I were getting contents from a text file, I'd probably calle ResetContent, and then AddString to put the text from the file in there. Don't forget to call SetRedraw(FALSE) before doing that so the listbox doesn't cause your users to have a seizure when it flashes and blinks at them during the update. Of course, as already mentioned, you would get better help if you actually posted this question in the appropriate programming forum.

Or do you mean that it cannot fully address a total memory size of 4GB? I'm not sure about that sorry.. It might be more worth it to do as you have thought, and buy 2x1GB memory modules and 2x512MB modules.. Although this is only 3GB, this is probably cheaper if you are musing on buying either a 2GB and 1GB memory module, or say 3x1GB chips, although obviously it is dependant on your motherboard and the amount of memory slots it provides. With the processor, I believe that the Intel Core 2 Duo processors (E4400-E6700) are very overclockable.. I have heard people overclock the E4400 processors (Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0GHz) to 3.0GHz, with the system remaining stable and the processor temperature not exceeding 50 degrees celsius. However, I assume (I'm not sure) that the quad core processors are just as overclockable.. Also $70 is $70, and although it is quad core it is 266MHz slower.. and for the extra 2 cores to make a difference then you must be either running more applications, or running applications which take advantage of the increased amount of cores (through multi-threading etc). Another thing is that your motherboard must be compatible with the Intel Core 2 Quad range.. which most Intel-compatible boards aren't (most are usually compatible with the Core 2 Duos and the Pentium 4's). And, having Vista Ultimate, i have realised that a lot of things aren't compatible :sigh: I hope this helps and good luck with your choices! --PerspX "Nowadays, security guys break the Mac every single day.

I did the upgrade originally and had all kinds of trouble even getting office 2007 to run after doing the "upgrade". I ended up downloading the trail version, installing from scratch and entering the upgrade key numbers and it worked fine.

I have Vista running on a single processor, 2Gig laptop. For laptops you should find that power management is much better than before....but you also have to have a BIOS upgrade to take advantage of the interfacing with Vista. I've found most applications I want to install running without a problem. Of course, you probably know about VS2005 already so be prepared to do lots of downloading before running it on Vista. The only issue I found was with one game that directly used the directx dll's instead of the API dll's. That application was the only one that has failed for me.

Good stuff; just as a thought: You don't need the .ToString() after TextBox1.Text as Text is a string anyway.

Try asking on the correct board and you may get an answer. This board is for Windows Vista questions only. I recommend you go here SQL / ADO / ADO.NET Jonathan Wilkes Darka[Xanya.net]

if the line ASSERT(pWndCtrl->m_pCtrlSite == NULL); is asserting then was there also a control. Check when its got created. Do you call it twice? Some things got changed since VC6 and now with Vista.:~ Dont ferget: "Vista is the best Windows yet now" Greetings from Germany
