This Cannot Be Done... But We Need You To Do It

Can you get Skype to not crash my computer, Mr Wizard?

Can you get Skype to not crash my computer, Mr Wizard?

Sure, no problem.

First go to Start > All Programs

Next rub two sticks while chewing on a stick of cheese.

After that spin around twice in your chair as you thank the Ambasador of Equador for your blessings.

Your computer will no longer crash after that.

My work is guaranteed.

Rots of Ruck. A little humor in the maddening scope of things.

Seriously,

The first program I install on any new computer I buy is System Mechanic Pro.

Just run a Total Care scan each morning and it will fix all your registry problems, clean out the clutter on your computer, check for security vulnerabilities, back up your registry, speed up your system, make your computer more stable and more.

You can get the basic version for less here: http://iolo.com/system-mechanic/standard/

Or get the full pro version here: http://iolo.com/system-mechanic/pro/

But in addition to running System Mechanic, make sure you also follow the steps I outlined in my post above at least once each day.

That's a lot of cheese.

Do that daily? His skin will start to smell weird and

his wife will move out because of the smell.

hmmmm.

Hi Larry_and_Xinji,

Thanks so much for the idea and link.

I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro, maybe that software will allow me to make one of the form fields fillable?

I appreciate the idea,

If you have Acrobat Pro then print the form to a PDF file. Open that file and enable the typewritter tool. It will ask you to save the file again. I usually save it to the same name and replace the existing file. Then you will be able to enable the typewritter and enter text in and location and any language you have active (I used it to enter the wife's address in Russian). I have the saved OP-169 file that I could send to you if you cannot get it to work. Having Pro makes filling in forms easy unless they lock the form but there are ways around even that.

Good luck,

Dave

Hi Darnell,

That's the main idea. We don't want bigdog to look and smell normal, do we?

We're all in one big 'keep-up-with-the-Jones' competition with each other here. When bigdog does good, we all feel bad.

I have a part II set of instructions for him that will set his schedule up just right.

Hi Dave&Roza,

Thanks for the info. That's great, I didn't even know there was a Typewriter tool in Acrobat Pro.

Need to learn the software more later. If I can find the time.

I got the OP-169 to work okay; I think. I haven't tested out pasting Mandarin characters into the form field yet. It does take my English typing in the form fields with no problem.

Thanks for the offer, I might take you up on it if my form freaks out and starts malfunctioning for some reason.

Take care,
