    radeon 7000

    I don't use ATI card. So, I can't exactly tell you where exactly you can find the option. But look around the monitor tab, there will be another tab for "ATI Display" or something like this. Under that tab you'll find another option for monitor (probably under "Displays" option/tab). Click on...

    radeon 7000

    This is a major quirk of ATI based cards' driver. This is one of the reason for my dislikings towards ATI cards/drivers. If you are changing refresh rate through Windows desktop properties then it will not work. There is another refresh rate settings under ATI card driver's advanced settings...

    Bay Area Real Estate Market

    Amazing. But I am wondering what was a guy's annual earnings in 1955 with a similar social status of a guy who can buy a $900K house today?

    Alternative to IE?

    You're right. I almost forgot that I could reuse single instance of IE and open up new pages. Guess what? .... It's been long time that I didn't touch IE ;) So, I did another test with 15 similar webpages opened with IE6 using Ctrl+N and again using MyIE2. MyIE2 took about 41MB whereas IE6...

    Alternative to IE?

    Most people like it mostly due to efficient use of deskspace and memory usage. Also it is faster to navigate through different pages. Right now I have 42 different sites open on my PC through MyIE2. It is taking only 96MB of memory. I tried to open similar number pages through IE. Every...

    Alternative to IE?

    Glad to hear than another person liked it. There are tons of features hidden under the Options and Setup menu. Honestly the best tip is to explore the setup and option menu and go through help file. Once you've done with customizing everything to your own liking, browsing will work like a charm...

    Alternative to IE?

    Don't let the fact that MyIE2 run on IE engine fool you. I was a little bit skeptical before started using MyIE2. It's been rock solid and has served me better than Mozilla/Firefox (not as stable). Personally I don't think IE is pure crap. No matter what we MS haters say, IMHO, recent version of...

    Existing HD in another existing computer

    Sounds like a IDE driver issue to me. If that is the case then try out these recommendation step by step as outlined in the following URL: http://www.windowsreinstall.com/install/other/motherboard/problems.htm You may also check if the drive letter/IDE device assignments are identical to...

    Alternative to IE?

    Another thumb up for MyIE2. If you want to stick with some fast, stable platform and still wanna add tons of features then try this out. Some of the features like tabbed browsing, mouse gesture, group favourites and adhunters are way too cool for me to go back to IE. In my one year's of usage...

    Thanks Def. It did actually make my TWS run faster than before. It is still not upto my liking though. Probably it is a java thing :(

    Canadian Broker

    Thanks for the reply. The only issue I have with Java based application is that it hogs down my PC. Everything become very slow, starting the TWS application and navigating through the menu is very slow. The standalone TWS is java based as well. I have never used eSignal. Does it allow order...

    Canadian Broker

    I've narrowed down my choices to IB Canada and QuesTrade (CyberTrader platform). I don't trade a lot but planning to become more active trader soon. Gone through their websites and played around a bit with their demo platform. I am having following concern about their services from my own...
