RDC is for syncronizing altered files over slow networks. You should have put your 4gig file on a remote server over ADSL or dial-up, then changed some stuff inside it, then used RDC to sync the files. You would then have discovered RDC is about 135937500 seconds faster than re-uploading the entire 4gigs a second time to the remote server... (assuming a regular ADSL1 connection) This is a nonsense test.

I don't think most people realize that this actually can also contribute to issues with downloading/uploading online if your internet is through a network (such as a university network). I've seen several forum threads where people had this issue and never had it resolved. I've dealt with glitchy audio in conjunction with high download speeds for months now. Glad the problem has finally been pinpointed. Hopefully the issue goes away. Thanks so much for the insight!

You can use the tool File Renamer: http://www.sttmedia.com/filerenamer With this tool it is possible to number files in your user defined order and you can do some other things like searching and replacing in file names. Additionaly, the explorer always adds brakets () around the numbers. In File Renamer you can specify this for your own. @Janet: There is another way renaming files without using the explorer.

For example.. Rip DVD to folder will give you the AUDIO_TS and the VIDEO_TS. In the VIDEO_TS you will have files such as (this is just an example your files may be a little different) VIDEO_TS.BUP VTS_01_0.BUP VIDEO_TS.IFO VTS_01_0.IFO VTS_01_1.VOB VTS_01_2.VOB VTS_01_3.VOB VTS_01_4.VOB The VIDEO_TS.IFO is the file that needs to be linked to th title in Movie Collector. Once you do the search and get the title just right click the title and click edit movie. A box will pop up and you go to the last tab on the top labeled links. The lower box will have some buttons one of which is "Add Movie File" next to local. Find your movie folder and select the VIDEO_TS.IFO Then just click on the WMC button to see and play your movie. Note that the play option in WMC is in the upper right hand corner not the actual play button. This is the only way I know how to make the movie play.

Approve the UAC Now that you have your registry editor opened find the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer 4. Now right click in the window on the right. 5.

Those icons in the system tray represent a program that is running, a program that few really ever need running in most cases. I would say it is far better to disable the auto-run of the program that you don't need than to simply hide it. CCleaner works very well for this, but you can use the msconfig method as well, just be careful not to disable anything important. That said, yes, sometimes it is also nice to hide the icons for programs that you DO want/need running in the background, and this is an easy, built-in way to do so.

I found FileQuest Gold from PiQuest software (www.piquest.com). FileQuest is great, it allows me to open multiple windows for copy and paste operations, and it also has a great personal folder feature, where I can define what sorts of file types I want to appear in each folder. I use this feature all of the time because I take lot's of pictures, and trying to keep them organized was a nightmare until now. In sum, FileQuest Gold is great, I am a loyal user, and I see that the company is still in the software business, having just released FileQuest 7 Gold. tx, Mike Hi,

But if you are syncing a whole 4GB file between two computers, RDC will vastly improve the time to do so. In the past, the whole file had to be resent if one of the copies had been changed. RDC sends only the changes. Also, keep in mind that for this to work, both machines have to be RDC capable, which would seem to imply that you have to have all Vista machines. As Chris said above. Vista is not slower at copying, XP just tells you it's done when it really isn't. I'd rather the OS do its thing and tell me when its really done, otherwise I'll yank the USB key or network cable and potentially lose data!
