I ran into the driver problem as far back as October 2012 while setting up a brand new HP computer to dual boot win 7 and win xp. No drivers for...
Good for you jadinof. You have a few years on me, and much more energy, apparently. :) For clarification. I am an old, retired, LAZY guy who...
Actually several steps behind, I suppose. :) Software is not a problem. Through the years I experimented a bit and found things that work. Many...
Yes, when my xp machines fail, I'll move on to win7, from there to Linux. Not exactly an "early adopter", eh? :)
I did a bit more tinkering with the Puppy live CD. This last boot was faster, about 1 minute 30 seconds from power on to desktop. The files...
I have just done a bit of experimenting with Puppy 5.2.8, to see if there is a way to run it without buying all those CD-RWs. Can't find them and...
Yep. More so than I knew. Must try to get out more. :)
A tiny bit of progress here. I downloaded the PLOP ISO called "small/ploplinux-4.3.1.1-i486.iso" from here:...
True ... And the original Puppy 5.2.8 ISO runs fine from a CD. That version, I think, is called lupulibre-528.005-1.iso, found here:...
No, I have never tried it. The next 4 or 5 days are jammed, but after that I will try it. I'm quite sure it will work but won't say so until I do...
Something I've wanted to try but never have is to install Puppy 5.2.8, the LTS one, onto a CD-RW, and create the save file on the CD. If that...
Hi, Wendi. That is an excellent project you have going. I wish I had discovered Linux distros earlier. To add to what's been said... Puppy is...
With respect, I suggest that microsoft figured out that users COULD control the older OSs, so they took control away. There is an interesting...
Hi, Wendi. No indeed that post was not directed at you, but thanks for answering. It was just sort of a general request for clarification. It...
1. I start a clean system. 2. I update the antivirus, etc. 3. I start Shadow Defender. 4. I install and uninstall various softwares, check emails,...
I won't post anymore about it here, don't want to veer further off topic, but there are reports that the TPM can already be compromised by...
They already have, sort of, by messing with win 7 updates. I just finished updating 3 computers, 2 on win 7 and 1 on win 8. They had not been...
Brummelchen, I understand now. Outpost free ver 6.5.1 is only the firewall, no antivirus. So no signatures as far as I know. If there were...
Fwiw, I have only ever seen one glitch in the old Outpost free v. 6.5.1 It is that when you go in to the interface and edit the rules, you have...
I still use version Outpost 6.5.1 on win xp, have for years. Have tested it using some of the leak checkers out there, works ok. It is only a...
Yes it might be so interpreted. That's probably why many people agree even when they shouldn't.
In many situations the suspect has the option to just refuse a police request, say for information or to search something. Nevertheless they...
ERAD deployment seems to be fairly recent. May be that hawki can not know the answer to the questions in post #7, as nobody has put it to trial...
hawki, I find this development particularly disturbing. Edit: because of the potential for abuse or mistakes. If you know, what standard of...
Couple of things. This whole foofaraw reminds me of the business model that bankrupted american car manufacturers. Use your base model to...
