  1. I'm sure there's a simple answer for this....

     

    I set up a temporary user account for testing, and now my PC starts up with the Admin account by default. How do I change the default login back to the primary account? Thanks.

  2. I also just entered "avnotify.exe" and when I clicked on it, a message appeared that said"

     

    The operation has been canceled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your systems administrator".

     

    Obviously, just entering avnotify.exe was enough. I don't know why it isn't working on your computer. Did you follow the instructions on the Microsoft site and then reboot?

    Yes, I did what they said and I get that same message you got when I open it myself. Program manages to circumvent the restriction somehow. Sweet.

  3. Did you just type in "avnotify.exe" or did you copy and paste the entire path to the file?

    I only entered "avnotify.exe". If I manually double-click on avnotify, I see the proper error/denial message from Windows. Are you saying I should enter the path?

  4. My old Dell CRT was on its last legs, so I picked up an Envision H190L at Best Buy today. It's analog only, which is fine since my video card is analog also. Its max (and recommended) resolution is 1280x1024/75hz, which is where I kept the old monitor set. I don't know if this monitor is too modern for my video card (a Radeon 7200), but I get jaggies on graphics and pixilation on text. The folder icons have a somewhat pixilated shadowing on them, as if the color resolution was set lower than 'true color' (32 bit).

     

    Granted, this isn't really much to complain about compared to how much better this LCD is in general than the CRT, but with all setting being equal, is there a way to smooth things out? I made sure I had the latest drivers for my video card, and there was no disk included with the Envision. The manual says the Windows plug-n-play drivers should be just fine. Is this the best I can do without another hardware upgrade?
