Good information. I'll keep this in my "tech notes" folder in case it

Why is "Local Settings" folder NOT shown in WinExplorer ?

Local Settings normally are defined as "hidden" and you wouldn't see it
unless in Explorer you change it in toolsfolder optionsview to "show
hidden files".

Windows shortcut prompt for parameters

In dos type doskey /? and you might find something in there, although I
doubt it. There is not much you can do anymore as we used to do in ms-dos.

Web page cannot be found on IE7

I get to the drivers page for my Dell. Try the Home Page Dell search for
"drivers" and it should put you on the correct web. Make sure you are logged
