RE: Dreaded Blue Screens of Death suddenly appear After I got home from visiting Frank in Toronto, my main computer (the one that I use to write the newsletters) kept crashing with repeated Blue Screens of Death (BSOD). The BSOD's gave me some clue as to why my system was crashing, as the .DLL file responsible for the crash appeared to be related to my video card driver. Strange, I thought. I didn't upgrade my video card driver recently, but opted to do so as I hadn't upgraded my driver in over a year. Video card drivers are usually a good thing to update, especially if you own a newer generation video card like mine (Sapphire ATI Radeon 9800). Unfortunately, I wasn't out of the woods just yet. ...

Category: Windows by Dennis Faas, infopackets editor http://www.infopackets.com Gazette Reader William A. writes: " Dear Dennis, I just finished reading your recent article entitled, 'Download directly to CD using Windows XP?' (August 26, 2004). I was curious about one thing: can you please tell me if it is possible to right click a file and have it 'Send To' my CD Burner? For example, if I right click over top of a document, there is a sub-header which reads 'Send To', with options (such as Internet Explorer, MS Paint, etc).Any help is appreciated! " My response: ...

And heck, creating a CD shouldn't be that difficult! Thankfully there's a much better alternative to Windows XP's built-in CD Burning feature -- and you don't have to be a rocket scientist to use it! How does it work?
