I no nothing about computers I like printers!
I had new computer in Feb with Vistas Home premium.
Worked great and graphics really good and it was fast.
For a while it's been slowing and forever saying it has to close x, y, or z programme as it's not responding, then yesterday it froze and a message come up that the USB was disconnected! There was nothing disconnected so I turned it off and restarted it and they it worked again.
Still being a pain so had enough and decided to wipe it and restore to factory settings - system restore was doing nothing to help.
Wiped yesterday and nothing but problems with the look of pages etc since.
Called for support and very nice man talked me through many options to get it back as it was when I first had it and in the end he said he could do more and I'd have to have a tec from Fujitsu to sort it has it could be its graphics card and it's confused about how it needs to display things.
These are some of the things that are not right with it:
The pages are elongated and there are big gaps down the side of pages that used to fill the screen.
The text is small and very thin.
The graphics are blurry on some things.
It is not showing any options on documents like file etc so I can not send any documents to anywhere else and any documents I have manged to send to computer I have had to right click properties and send each one individual as the 'invert all' or 'select all' option are not there, just organise. view and burn and that's it. There isn't even the close programme button in the left hand corner I have use the red cross to close.
Some picture I saved onto discs and UBS before I wiped it cannot open and are showing up as a paint brush with a blob of paint by them!
If I adjust the magnification this makes the words very unatural looking and uncomfortable to look at and a bit blurry.
My tool bars are about half the depth they were before I reset and even my Word 2007 looks strange and when it opens the title is half the size it used to be as well and all its fonts are showing as thinner than they were.
When Messenger appears after start up the menu is also now only half way up the page instead of full length and the icon for it on the bottom bar is pixelated were as before it was lovely and smooth and glossy looking. The desk top icons are also a bit pixelated and the big clock that it on the side bar is only half as big as it was before.
The font about an 8 and the man tried to change it but it would not budge from it's small size.
This page I am writing on is only about 5 inches wide on my screen but I have a 20 inch screen!
Is it possible it's the graphic card or could it be something else? I know it is not anything I have done as the product support man could not get it right either!
Thanks for any kind answers that take into account I'm a computer no nothing!Need computer literate person. Possible graphics card prob. Elongated web pages.?
have you tried to reset your screen to factory settings. if so then you do have a graphics prob . try a different screen to make sure your screen is not the problem. if it does the same then you need a new graphics card. if your computer is a l/top then you need a new motherboard . if its a d/top then a new card which you can buy easily and fit yourself, just remember your anti static strap before you take the side off the computer and before you take the card from its esd bag.Need computer literate person. Possible graphics card prob. Elongated web pages.?
click and hold down on the page edge and drag it back to full size
When you did a fresh install did you install the latest and correct drivers for your graphic card. If not it wont work.
If you have the correct drivers installed and its still playing up remove the graphics card and use the on-board graphics. If this corrects the issue then your card is knackered and you need a new one.
Most graphic issues are caused by having incorrect or out dated drivers. what make/model is your card? Google it and download the drivers from the manufactures website. Im pretty sure you have a driver issue.
A driver is a piece of software which tells a piece of hardware what to do and how to do it. It allows higher-level computer programs to interact with a hardware device. Having the correct divers installed is vital or your P.C will play up big time.

I don't have a bashrc file in /etc. How can I edit my directory colors?
I already changed the regular colors in the console terminal, to blue fonts and cyan background, but my directory file names and executables are default colors. They don't match it. I looked for the bashrc file in the /etc, but it's not there. I want to add ';eval dircolors /etc/DIR_COLORS'; to it, according to a website I read, so that I can change the default folder colors. My linux system setup is just a text terminal. No splash login. Thanks.I don't have a bashrc file in /etc. How can I edit my directory colors?
Check in $HOME/.bashrc also.

LCD Resolution Question?
I just bought a 17 inch Acer LCD monitor for my HP Pavilion model 7955. A note on the front of the LCD monitor said ';Make sure your system supports 1280 x 1024 resolution';.
I went into display and looked at the settings and found that my computer would only go to 1024 x 768 resolution.
I sent an email to Acer but haven't heard back (they don't give out a tech support phone number or at least I couldn't see one).
I fooled around and now am able to change my resolution to 1280 x 1024........but now the font is so small in IE that and elder like me can barely see it!
Do I need to keep the resolution this high? Or can I go back to something that will allow me to see my screen a bit better?
I suppose the question is: How important is the resolution when it comes to LCD's?LCD Resolution Question?
it is purely what looks best for you, that is not a hardware fault...
the higher the resolution, the smaller everything is, 1024*768 i find to be perfect, it is nothing to do with the monitors quality, purely just size.LCD Resolution Question?
that is saying that the monitor cannot pass that resolution but you can use a lower resolution and you have how much your video card support you must say to the computer to show you only the resolutions the computer can use and is turned on by default

How do I restore my original settings for visuals on my PC?
Recently my family used my desktop PC while I was away at school and changed the settings for the font and display features so everything was bigger to see better. I adjusted the font size using Internet Explorer and I attempted to use Control Panel to fix the rest of the issues but to no avail. Currently no background images are showing up on web pages and some images are missing. Does anyone know how to restore these settings to how they were when I bought the computer? I tried to use System Restore, but it doesn't go back far enough to when I had used the computer last. Any help would be appreciated!How do I restore my original settings for visuals on my PC?
Im guessing it's the screen resolution. Using windows Xp? Right click the desktop or background, and click Properties. Press the 'settings' tab and move the dial to a higer pixel ratio. Try 1280 x 960. Hope this was your issue.

How do I become the Administrator of my computer, again?
I am using Vista in a Compaq laptop. I have fonts @Batang, @Dotum, etc. They are called the True Type Collection. If you happen to run your mouse over them when choosing a font, my computer locks up and all work is lost. I was told to go to the Font folder and just delete them. They will NOT delete. It seems I am not the Administrator of my personal computer anymore!!
Group and User Names are System, Me and TrustedInstaller. System and Me have permission to Read %26amp; excute and Read. TrustedInstaller has Full Control. Of course, I have tried to delete TrustedInstaller and I am not allowed.
How do I correct this problem? How did TrustedInstaller get on my computer and change my settings? How did these problem fonts get on my computer?How do I become the Administrator of my computer, again?

Windows XP display theme no longer existant?
Ok, I have Windows XP on my computer. The display settings are set to have the taskbar, start menu and all the windows in XP Silver Theme. However, when I logged on this morning it was all in the classic theme. With the grey and blue. I customized the size and style of the font as well, which is no longer there.
I tried to change it back to the XP Silver theme, but changing it back it not even possible. It is not shown when I go to the Windows and Buttons in the Appearance under Display Properties. All it has now is Windows Classic Style. Before it had that and Windows XP Style as possible choices.
To try and fix it I have done a System Restore twice, nothing happened; I deleted things, like old and unused files and documents and cookies. I ran Disk Defragmentor, Disc Clean- Up, my spy-ware program, and still NOTHING!
How can I get my XP display themes back?Windows XP display theme no longer existant?
There's only one possible way to disable this, do this and update your result I'll try to help more if it doesn't resolve it.
Right click ';My Computer'; and click properties (Or Windows button + Pause/Break) . Go to the tab that says ';Advanced'; In the ';Performance'; section click ';Settings';. On the first page (';Visual Effects';) you get you have a bunch of checks. Scroll down, the last one is ';Use visual styles on windows and buttons'; Check it (This turns on the Themes service of windows xp).
This is what turns your XP themes on/off. Restart and try changing it again from the Display Appearance Configuration dialog. Or try using the radio buttons to ';Adjust for visual effects'; and then take them off one by one after you get it working.
When you right-click/properties on your desktop, there's two tabs that have the XP option. In the ';Themes'; tab you need to have XP selected from the drop-down list for it to show up in the appearance tab, make sure you have this as well.
The actual Theme for xp is located in:
C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes and it's called luna.theme.
Try browsing to it and double-clicking it (Make sure you have the visual options enabled though).Windows XP display theme no longer existant?
I know EXACTLY what this problem is. I have had it happen to myself many of times. The Theme Service is probably turned off and what you need to do is to turn it back on. What you must do is click the ';Start'; menu and then on ';Control Panel.'; After you do that click on ';Administrative Tools'; which I think that you must be your computer administrator to be able to possibly access this program. After that click on ';Services.'; Click and hold the scrool bar and scroll down to the ';T's'; and at the end of the ';T's'; you should find ';Themes.'; Click once on ';Themes'; NOT TWICE, ONLY ONCE. At the top left corner of that little screen there should be a blue underlined word that says ';Start'; and the whole sentence should say ';Start the service.'; Click on that. Then it will either automatically switch back to the xp silver theme, or you will have to go right back to your desktop and right click and then click ';Properties'; and then just turn it back on to the xp silver theme and that should do it because it sure did do it for me and now every time that I have that same problem I just do that! If you still need more help after doing this and it doesn't work or something happened feel free to e-mail me at arvettedude@yahoo.com!
See if there are still programs that came with XP and if so, go to display and it should let you change it.

Mugen EvE Lifebar Help??
How do I install lifebars for EvE screenpack in Mugen? I've looked at videos on youtube and found nothing. Since it's EvE it has a different system and junk. I tried adding the FNT files to the font folder and nothing changed.Mugen EvE Lifebar Help??
I know the EvE you are talking about is a pc game called EvE Online.
Anyway
adding the font...
you should add the EvE fonts to:
Mugen/fonts/';eve's fnt fonts goes in here';
or
Mugen/data/eve/fonts/';fnt files';
the life bar needs to be edited so it could link and work with the Mugen system
the lifebar should be like this:
Mugen/data/eve folder/';containing the lifebar files';.
When you have put the files in the right place do this editing:
Go to Mugen鈫扗ata鈫扴ystem
Scroll down to [Files]
and do this editing
wfight = data/ggxbars/fight.def';
change the data/ggx etc to the location of the eve folder which should be something like this:
fight = data/eve/fight.def

Help! Windows (XP) is messed up.?
Yesterday, i used Advanced System Care to clean up my computer, it worked, but then later i had an error of Windows Service Pack 2, cannot remember anything really about what it said, just something that cancelling it could effect windows stability, so i closed the error window. Today when i switched the computer on, instead of the blue screen with the user accounts %26amp; user account pictures, there was a box in the middle of the screen, with my account name, and password entry box. Also it another box came saying ';Windows is logging on'; and applying settings etc, then my desktop came on, and the icons seem different, with sort of shadows around the writing, the graphics seem different, the font, but in control panel i see no changes to the settings. And when i go to move one of the windows, instead of the actual window moving, a grey box moves instead, then the window moves to where i moved the box. So i decided to restart, and got yet another box saying ';Windows is saving your settings'; %26amp; ';Windows is logging off'; and on log on same boxes appeared, nothing changed. And i cannot do a system restore because for some reason there is no restore points for this month or any previous month :S
Also installed updates but no changes were made.
Am on Windows XP Home Edition 2002. Service Pack 2.
Whats going on?
How can i solve it?Help! Windows (XP) is messed up.?
it sounds like it is starting up in safe mode. you need to go into the bios by tapping f8 repeatedly at the startup brfore windows starts. then make it to where it starts normallyHelp! Windows (XP) is messed up.?
';...it worked,...'; Really?
Check around the program/settings to see if there's an ';undo'; or ';roll back changes'; option.
Do you have any data on your PC ? I would check if the data is still there and back it up. I would then try to run a repair from Windows CD.
.
Here is a link to instructions on how to do different tasks, if you look through the ';How to'; articles there is a step by step guide ';How To Run a Repair Install';.
http://www.webtree.ca/windowsxp/repair_x
Although after running a repair, your applications and data should be in tact, it`s always wise to back things up first.
Additionally, this is not the first time that a variety of tools broke Windows, so in gerenal if I was to use one of these tools, I would first make a backup of your data, backup registry and if possible make a backup image of your Windows installation by using either Acronis or Ghost, thus should anything go wrong again, you can then restore from this backup image even if your Windows Restore points are gone...
i don't quite get what's wrong with your pc. most probably its your visual effects. right click on my computer -%26gt; advanced system settings -%26gt; adjust as you like.
If there's any problem, you can always pop in your windows xp installation cd and repair from there. ;)

I need some consultive help with my WIN XP Graphical Interface please!?
I was fiddling with my Windows ';graphics'; settings (I've got Intel Extreme Graphics) and have now made some inadvertent change because of which the ';fonts'; don't appear as crystal clear (on reducing their size) as they previously used to. The visibly clean interface, of my fonts - while browsing, editing a document - or doing any font-related computer activity is not the same anymore.
How do I enable the best graphics, perfect texture and high pixels detailing to the best of my computer's graphical ability?
Please help.
Miscellaneous details: I've got WINDOWS XP PROFESSIONAL 32-bit, Intel Celeron Processor 1.7Ghz 256 MB RAM (with Intel Extreme Graphics) and did this stupidity on the suggestion of a utility program (Advanced System Optimizer) that advised me on how I could lessen the ';excess graphical pressure'; off my computer :-P or whatever...I need some consultive help with my WIN XP Graphical Interface please!?
You said that the fonts don't appear as crystal clear as they did. Now this may depend on the type of monitor you have but can make a difference either way. If you have a LCD display it is very likely that you turned off clear type. It can also make a difference on CRT monitors but not as noticeably so. To turn it back on go to Control Panel %26gt; Display %26gt; Appearance and click on the Advanced tab then go to Effects and under ';smooth edges of screen fonts'; select ';Clear Type';. For further fine tuning the way clear typing works you can download the Clear Type Power Toy for Windows XP below.
If that doesn't work, post back and let me know.
No need to be sorry. You may have checked but could it be that your display resolution is set too low. If it's a LCD panel, you need to run it at it it's native resolution which should be maximum for it.
Maybe someone else can think of a few ideas that I may not be hitting on.I need some consultive help with my WIN XP Graphical Interface please!?
Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
I think you should go with your first inclination

How do I stop Microsoft PowerPoint 2007 from being retarded?
Please help. I am making a PowerPoint presentation for class and the system keeps throwing in all these extra spaces between my words. I've tried changing the alignment, the font, I've tried fixing the kerning, I've even picked around with the character spacing and it will NOT go away. I'm getting pissed.
I try to type ';a phrase such as'; and I get ';a ph ra s e su c h a s';. It's getting on my nerves. When I try to backspace to delete the huge spacing between the words, it goes ahead and deletes the letter. Please help.How do I stop Microsoft PowerPoint 2007 from being retarded?
First thing to do - run diagnostics and update your software...
Round Office pulldown menu --%26gt; PowerPoint Options (at the bottom) --%26gt; Resources --%26gt; probably try diagnostics first, it might send you to updates anyhow.
2nd (and I apologize in advance if this sounds patronizing), but do you actually have the font installed on the computer? You could be working on a file created somewhere else and PowerPoint is just trying to render a replacement and it's choking. In the font pulldown, do you see a TT in front of the font you are using? If it is blank or there is a question mark - you don't have the actual font.
3rd - there have been know issues with OpenType above a certain size, though it's more the opposite - type piles up on itself, it doesn't spread out. Nevertheless, if you are using OpenType, not TrueType, that could be your problem.
4th - make sure you don't have Adobe Type Manager installed (I used to use it in the good old days, but now that you don't need it, it can cause problems).
5th - make sure you have an up-to-date, windows certified printer driver installed. Even if you aren't hooked up to a printer. I can't remember how you fake it, but you could google it and find out - this definitely messes with PowerPoint.
And some questions if the above didn't help - is this happening all the time? Is it happening with all fonts? Do you have effects applied to the text?
EDIT: I've had my PowerPoint get messed up when I've opened a file from someone in Japan or Korea. Even though it looks normal and there are no non-English characters, something weird happens. I have fixed it with the repair feature. You didn't actually say if you've run diagnostics and repair - I still think they could help. There's always a reinstall.
FYI: I have seen your problem - the type reminds me of spread out teeth in someone's mouth. I just can't remember what I figured was going on. But I fixed it. Or worked around it. Or something.How do I stop Microsoft PowerPoint 2007 from being retarded?
Have you tried creating a new PPT file and typing in it? If the problem is restricted to the described file the file itself or a graphic within it may be corrupt. I have had corrupt graphics create similar problems--even altered font sizes.
Hope this was helpful.

Have you tried creating a new PPT file and typing in it? If the problem is restricted to the described file the file itself or a graphic within it may be corrupt. I have had corrupt graphics create similar problems--even altered font sizes.
Hope this was helpful.

i ended up having to uninstall and reinstall when that happened to me.
roll back to MS PP 2003. 2007 is a POS.

Problems with Japanese language in MAC?
Hello,
I recently added the feature that allows me to change from Japanese to English on my MAC, the system is 10.4. Its very handy, however I have encountered a few problems, if you are able to answer them that would be amazing!
After adding the Japanese feature, most of my programs when opened type in Japanese. Ex. when I open the internet, or word, instead of typing in English, it automatically types in Japanese. In word, I've tried changing the preferences so that the font isn't a japanese one, but it wont allow me to do that, it automatically goes back to this Japanese font which makes it type in Hiragana.
Its really annoying having to open my programs and then change the language back to english. I dont want to remove it because I need it for my classes.
How can I make English the automatic language for all of my programs?Problems with Japanese language in MAC?
In ';System Preferences'; click ';International'; -%26gt; ';Language'; and then drag English so is is higher in the list than 日本語 (Nihongo)
I also use Japanese sometimes and that is how I keep my computer in English except when I really want Japanese. I also recommend that you click ';Input Menu'; and at the bottom check the ';Show input method in menu bar';.

Linux Ubuntu 8.04, why is some text much larger than other text? How do I fix this?
Hello All,
I'm trying out Linux for the first time. For some reason, drop down boxes and some type is larger than other type. I'm not sure why. It makes it very difficult. Text that is too large includes: the text I type in when logging in, drop down menus on the internet, and misc text on the internet. Some pages look fine. I did find under system%26gt;appearance%26gt;fonts that all fonts are Sans 10 pt font. I even tried changing everything to Serif. The text is so large that my screen isn't able to display everything Thanks for any help!Linux Ubuntu 8.04, why is some text much larger than other text? How do I fix this?

Why are my Fonts/Graphics all screwed up in IE7 all of the sudden?
I downloaded a picture last night and set it as my desktop image. Now for some reason in IE7 my font looks different (even though it says it the same in the settings), text both runs together has weird spaces inserted in words on the screen, and grahics looks rough and like they are being viewed in a much lower resolution. Also we pages seem to not auto adjust to the size of the browser window when they prviouslly would. This is even after I changed th desktop back to the picture I had before (if that was having any effect on something). Web pages still look correct using Firefox.
I tried to do a system restore, and that seems to fix things, but it screws up my Windows Live One Care software and I don't know how to fix that once I revert back to a previous date.
For reference I am using a Dell 24 inch monitor and my resolution is set at 1900x1200.
Any help would be huge.

What is Apple - IMac's ';word'; document?
The IMac is my home computer (new) and I need simple navigating instructions on what is similar to the Word document and how to change text and fonts. I can not use my office computer (Dell) to revise my resume and this is the system I am only use to working with. Please help.What is Apple - IMac's ';word'; document?
The application that comes with Macs is called TextEdit (found under Applications). It's better than WordPad, but it's worse than Word.
The Apple equivalent is iWork with Pages being the Word processor (though most people just get the Mac:Office regardless of it being more than iWork).What is Apple - IMac's ';word'; document?
It is called Pages. Works like word. The icon is a purple ink jar with a pen accross it.
Your mac probably came with a free 30 day trial of Microsoft Word -- check the discs that came with it.
If not, use Neo Office -- it is free open source software, and it can open and save Word documents
http://www.neooffice.org
Hope this helps!
There is also a free open source suite called Open Office, which does what MS Office does, if you need that kind of capability.
Text Edit, from Apple is a very simple program, without many features. It's a good copy %26amp; paste tool, which does let you use any font, so you can add some style to your resume.
But if work is your need, I'd suggest the free open source versions listed here...unless your boss will flip for a full MS suite for you.

if you download and use Web Page Maker V2, this is a small but very good programme, lets you put images text exactly where you want them, literally wysiwyg, it also has an option to insert code etc....
once you add your pages, all you do is click on the add menu, choose your style/button types and it links all the pages to the buttons. then once you have done, you export to html and then upload through your ftp

Please, will someone very smart PLEASE help me? :( [question is worth points (not saying how much)]?
please read ALL details: I am using Windows XP SP3 (but am not sure if it was 1st SP2 or not) but my problem that I want to fix immediately (or asap [but with all my hope than hopefully immediately]) is my Windows XP themes. The computer I use used to be my parents computer that they got back around mid 2007 with Windows XP (and it never ran any newer nor older os) and sometime while our computer guy was fixing it for them just last year back in '09 and when he was done it was in classic view and since than it was stuck there. If I go to display properties in the themes tab and go to the drop down menu it says all my themes are there but when i click on Windows XP everything else returns to normal except for the Windows %26amp; buttons they stay windows classic. now under my appearance tab still in display properties on my top drop down menu I only have an option for Windows Classic style (of course all the color schemes are there and font sizes. also if i go to change a color scheme, font size, or both on my windows %26amp; buttons it will stick when i go back to themes tab and select Windows XP. this problem is in all user accounts, even new ones i just create I tried ALL i can think of and really want this fixed asap (hopefully immediatly) I tried going to themes tab, selecting windows classic, applying, than goin back to Windows XP but the classic style windows %26amp; buttons still stuck. i also can't do a system restore b/c it only goes to march 2010, and i'm to afraid to go to last configuration settings that worked (not exact wording) (under F8 at startup) because of files (which I can backup) and programs (which i cant and not sure if I have all discs needed) plus im worried about drivers and stuff too. lastly i tried downloading a different theme ( i just tried the zune theme) hoping it would trigger something but it didnt and i doubt any other special theme download or multiple special theme downloads will and besides i dont want all those weird themes, just the all my regulars back.Please, will someone very smart PLEASE help me? :( [question is worth points (not saying how much)]?
I don't claim to be a professional, and I will state up front that you should contact Microsoft for an official solution, but I can offer some advice.
The first, and definitely most painless option is to virus scan, as some viruses can stop certain programs from working.
It sounds like you may have some corrupted system files. You can try to repair your system files. If you have the OS cd, you can tell your computer start from the CD.
If you don't know how to do that, the first thing you need to do is start up your computer. If you do, skip to the next paragraph. When given the option, press F2 (or indicated button) to ';change system settings. This will open up your system bios. Now don't play with any ofthe settings, but press the right arrow key until it gives you the option to ';adjust drive to start from'; or something to that effect. Using the pgup and pagedn keys to change it so that the CD drive is on top. Keep going right until you get to the screen that lets you ';save and exit';, select that. Your computer will restart and you will be prompted to ';press any button to start from disc'; or the like, and do so.
Now that you have started from the disc, navigate the menus (pick language and such) until you get to the main window (the one that gives you the option to install the OS. Find where it gives you the option to repair your system files instead, and tell it to do a full system restore (or the equivalent presented).
Hopefully one of these helped. Once again, I'm not an expert, and if these don't work, you should contact Microsoft.

How do you do the little heart thingy?
There are other ways, but people will tell you what '; they '; do,
but they wont say what operating system, what computer, what FONT, what browser, etc. so what they do may not work.
Maybe someone will tell you clearly what do in english, with the
details ( for a change ) instead of stuff like '; press ;%26gt;@ '; etc.
which only works on their own computer.
When I cut and paste the entire symbol character set, including the four playing card symbols with the heart, I get this garbage instead, but if I cut and paste some elses heart off the web, I
get a heart.. hope someone who really knows, posts the correct way to generate a heart on any computer, since I cant.
NOTE :
see what I mean - all the answers above do not work,
and not one person said what OS/browser/Font/computer they were using. I tried them all ( unless you take the guy who said ';thats just a symbol '; as though stating the obvious was of any help at all ! With answerers like that, why bother....)
ENGLISH, anyone?How do you do the little heart thingy?
?????????????????????
Here it is, go Start, Run
then type charmap,
make sure the font is Arial and just scroll down until you find the symbol you like, click select, then on copy
then paste it where ever you like
Hope this helpsHow do you do the little heart thingy?

you have to know what computer operating system you are using,
and what FONT TYPE you are using, etc.
You can highlight a heart you see, CRTL C ( copy ) and CTRL V
(paste ) and there are keyboard shortcuts, but depending on whether you use a MAC or XP or 98 or whatever, and whatever
font set, and what browser, the keystrokes are different.
You can go into ( this varies, again on what OS you use, and what FONT you use ) the Accessories, system tools,
and CHARACTER MAP, and choose and cut and paste.
There are other ways, but people will tell you what '; they '; do,
but they wont say what operating system, what computer, what FONT, what browser, etc. so what they do may not work.
Maybe someone will tell you clearly what do in english, with the
details ( for a change ) instead of stuff like '; press ;%26gt;@ '; etc.
which only works on their own computer.

anywhere else, for that matter...
The person above who said COPY THIS was the only
way that my computer could generate the character, and
ONLY if I copied ( CTRL C ) from the web page, and
PASTED ( CTRL V ) into the ANSWERS EDIT window.
If I paste into my own computer, say NOTEPAD, I get
? or a blank, depending on how I do it...
Can anyone who knows this stuff comment?
When I cut and paste a heart into notepad, it becomes a
?, but when I put it back into questions, it just remains
a ? ... strange
DWIGHTl's web page is really interesting, but again, absolutely
nothing on the page worked, and ALT #### got me
ALT ding ding ding ding, as usual, since the press alt and
a number method has not not ever worked on my computer,
with my font, with my operating system etc. which no one
bothers to mention...
If you cant follow the intructions either, just cut and paste
