Hi guys! I was wondering if someone could help me solve a problem I have been experiencing for some time now. For those of you who have XP, you will know that ScanDisk has been renamed, for some strange reason, to disk error checking.

New Windows Installer

GoalWiky
Hy guys, About one months ago I found Advanced Installer. After testing it, I'm amased what it can do for me - system administrator. It enables me to easily build reliable MSI packages, runs on Windows 2000/XP, and the install packages it creates run on all Microsoft Windows 9x/ME/NT/2k/XP operating systems.

Winamp scrambled after resolution change

Curley_Boy
When you launch a program that has a different screen resolution to your desktop, the icon and window posistions can become scrambled when you exit. Although most of my programs are well behaved a consistant offender is Winamp.

Long filenames and CD burning probs!

Curley_Boy
My mum wants me to backup her work stuff to CD. However when I try and burn the stuff to CD (using Nero) it tells me that some of the file names are either longer than 255 characters (or have characters that aren't supported by the CD file system, ISO 9660) and directories are more than 8 paths deep.
