We've been having a boot-up problem involving our sound card. Usually, on cold boot, windows doesn't recognize that the card has been installed and tries to reinstall it. We cancel the reinstall and let the computer finish booting and then reboot. Windows finds the installation on reboot. This is...

What settings do I need to change in IE to be able to view images of items on the web page, instead of getting and having to click on it to view the item?

For some reason my taksbar has changed its appearance. The right side with clock and items that load at boot-up are no longer in a single row; they take two rows. This also affects the rest as any open folders are also continued onto the second row instead of just showing as "envelopes" This...

I have a machine where an unknown font most probably is corrupted and am thinking about dragging fonts from the fonts-folder to find out which one. I wonder about if dragging some specific font out will render Windows(FE) unbootable? Better yet, instead of having to use the trial and error...
