XPfails – luggable – BLOGDESK just beeps

For some unknown reason, I had to reinstall BLOGDESK. I don’t appear to have lost anything. Hmmm?


XPfails – luggable – slows to crawl

Friday, October 27, 2006

LUGGABLE needed a reboot. It slowed to a crawl. FFOX2 appears to be the culprit with all applications entries not responding. Nuking everything in sight didn’t seem to help. Argh!


XPfails – luggable – PRINTERALL fails to pull data

Interesting … the PRINTERALL client doesn’t have ANY data in it. None at all. Hmmm, who to point the finger at?


XPfails – luggable – OUTLOOK snarfs 4 messages today

OUTLOOK snarfed four messages today. No rhyme or reason. Copying the message to a new one and send worked fine. Just annoying.


XPfails – luggable – RSSBANDIT fails

Tuesday, October 24, 2006

RSSBANDIT failed in initiation. Stopping and starting didn’t help. Reviewing the task manger I couldn’t find anything to nuke. A reboot was required. The reboot process exposed a hidden window that was recorded as RSSBANDIT’s. I don’t know how one could find and nuke it without the restart. That seems like a design failure.

TECHNOLOGY: Old Software “Serious Creativity”

Wednesday, February 15, 2006

Interesting problem. Some old software from the WIN95 days won’t install on XP. I’ve been reinstalling it as I move from machine to machine. It has in the past. Why not now? It is particualarly agravating when I spend my scarce person technology dollars on something and it ages out. I can understand hardware failure, but software? Now I am sure they will sell me a replacement for 75$ but why should I. I bought it. Whatever it was! Last time I got screwed like this was KeeBoo. Oh well live and learn. BTW I sent them an email. Let’s see what happens.
