I was handed a Compaq laptop that has Windows XP Home installed and is
current to SP3. The computer has been functioning fine but today the owner,
an elderly relative, told me pressed a couple of keys that put it into the
hibernation mode. He does not remember what keys he hit and now, when he
restarts the computer the screen is blank and neither the keyboard or the
touch pad responds. I turned it on and the hard drive spins up and all seems
fine but I get the same issues he reported.
Any ideas?

Yes. Find a Windows XP group for your question. You'll have much better
luck.
As you appear to be using a web interface, start here to find an appropriate
group: http://www.microsoft.com/communities...s/default.aspx
Click the + beside your language. then scroll down to Windows. In Windows,
open the Windows XP category, then find a group there to
post in. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

I am looking at the ELSE home page and trying to figure out if I should
invest the time to learn about the ELSE minor mode for Emacs.
Is there any programmer out there using ELSE that is getting great
benefit from it?
What does ELSE minor-mode for Emacs do that is so great for you?

Pardon the cross post, but I'm not sure where exactly to post this question.
We have MFC application using many MFC extention DLL's. We started using a
new MFC extention DLL that is mixed mode so we could use some .Net
components we have built.
We are getting an assertion in ~CCmdTarget when exiting our app when after
making a call to Windows Forms MessageBox. On line 48, m_dwRef is 2 for some
reason.

I have a serious problem with my computer. Whenever i start any games on
fullscreen, (like counter strike or WOW) I get a pop up saying "hibernation
is unchecked. do you want to hibernate?" I keep geting this as long as i play
games. But I dont have hibernation on. When i try to have hibernation on, it
hibernates after a couple of minutes of playing games.
I have formated my computer but it didnt solve my problem. Anyone can help?

Overview:
Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

I succeeded, with both firewalls in the same network. But I'm wondering if it's possible to do the same thing, with 2 Pfsense firewalls...
