Dreamweaver MX and Vista Fix - Insert Tables - Best fix

Monday, September 22nd, 2008

Hello everyone!  A common problem for Vista users with Dreamweaver MX is the “Insert>Tables” function; it simply will not work.  I have already posted two articles on this issue providing some fixes for the issue.  In the first article, I show how to make the “Insert Table” function actually do something and that is insert a table.  The only problem with THIS fix is that it doesn’t allow you to change the specs before the table is inserted into your Document.  The second fix is a tip given by a user, and another tip given by me which has worked for a decent ammount of people, but not all (for some it only worked temporarily, then the problem occured again.)  In this tutorial, I will be giving a new fix which will make the “Insert Tables” function work like a charm.

Problems with Spyware Removal - Scarey Black Screen and Mouse Cursor Bootup: Solution!

Monday, August 18th, 2008

It’s true - to stay safe on the internet, it is always good to have protection from malware, adware, and spyware.  These are annoying, and, quite often, dangerous.  So what do we do to stay protected?  We get programs like SpyBot Search & Destroy, or protection from McAfee and Norton.  We do a scan, the program finds  some problems, you go through the process, and at the end - it shows a few things that couldn’t be fixed, but can be removed.  It warns us that removing that file could potentially make some programs on the computer run improperly.  Without thinking, we delete those files.  The next thing we know, we’re booting up to nothing but a mouse cursor and a black screen.  What happened?  If you’re a Windows user, and this has happened to you - you should read this.

Speeding up your computer without upgrading hardware

Saturday, August 2nd, 2008

We all know the more memory, the faster CPU, the better motherboard, and the bigger hard drive you have will definately help boost the performance of any PC.  Now with Vista out and running, the standard ammount of RAM is 2Gigs…but unfortunately, not all of us can afford that.  Some of us even have decent hardware already, yet we tend to deal with and dread the slow performance of our PC’s, but why?
