SC, in the settings as above can you make sure the resolution is set to 1280x1024, use the digital connection if possible. 1280x1024 is the native resolution. Refresh should be 60hz

Seymour Clearly - 20 Oct 2004 23:39 - 2288 of 11003

Wow. That's sharp. Bloody small letters though. Yes, am using the digital connection.

Tim I believe, you'll be a friend forever. Thanks, Rob.

Can I get the letters bigger in any way?

Didn't think so.

edit, actually already getting used to it, nice... :-))))

All: I wish I knew what had been removed, particulary in view of Kayak's tantalising reference . . .

On edit: and even that has now been removed . . . history is being rewritten before my eyes -- or shouldn't I mention eyes?

Spaceman - 21 Oct 2004 00:17 - 2301 of 11003

Derek, the wonders of editing ;-) you should have a PM !!

chocolat - 21 Oct 2004 00:18 - 2302 of 11003

Looks like the eyes had it then.

MightyMicro - 21 Oct 2004 00:28 - 2303 of 11003

Chocolat -- ho ho :)

Tim, you have mail -- but your MAM PM is disabled . . .

Thanks for all your help 7thfloor.It was a pain ringin comdirect for every trade!

7thFloor - 22 Oct 2004 09:12 - 2305 of 11003

SAW

I'm very dissapointed in comdirect. There has been a couple of issues I've taken up with them and their attitude has been less than helpful. The time it's taking them to sort out the SP2 problem is plain daft.

By the way, still on the subject of slow PCs, the guys on this thread pointed me towards Spybot & Adaware plus a firewall (a software one in my case from Zonealarm). They are excellent at keeping Spyware from slowing down your machine.

>> MoneyAM Homepage Consuming High CPU Resources

Spaceman, thanks for reply and suggestion that it's probably the ads.

Has this been discussed before. I recall ads being topical for a while, but I don't recall CPU loading coming up as an issue.

I had a look at ADVFN homepage. It is quite busy, and has quite a few 'flashing' ads, but doesn't use any more CPU than any other normal page. I note am homepage has scrolling blocks on it, which appears to be the only obvious difference.

I've now changed my browser default homepage away from am, so I don't get the CPU hit everytime I open a new browser. I suppose that 'fixes it' for me.

But I'm still surprised that this is how am intend it to be and I still wonder if there is something wrong somewhere, either my PC('s) or the homepage.

D.
