Windows Forum / Windows XP / New Users / January 2007Rebooting
Every time I reboot, about when my taskbar is 3/4 activated, I hear an audio that says something that sounds to me like "Hard tail plus has loaded". I haven't the foggiest idea of what it's trying to tell me and if anybody can enlighten me, I'd appreciate an email response to halhanig@charter.net. Thanks loads. Hal Hal What are your anti-spyware arrangements?  SignatureHope this helps.

Not in the slightest.....I'm 82 years old and would need a pneumatic jack just to get me seated on its throne. Why did you ask? George Z. > George > [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] >> >> George Z. George You referred to "Hard tail plus" in your first post and searching in Google got a number of results mentioning bicycles. An easy link to make to an 82 year old ( to a 64 year old for that matter ) in one word is "grandchildren". Are you the only person to use your computer? It would seem that you have a programme starting on rebooting. Probably picked up when browsing the internet. The easiest way to identify this is probably HijackThis. Download, install and run HijackThis and post the HijackThis log to me by direct email. http://www.majorgeeks.com/download3155.html I would, however, be pleased to receive a copy of the log by email to my address, which is given below removing dump from the address. gcjc@btdumpinternet.com SignatureHope this helps.

It sounded that way to me, the first time I heard it. I found an answer by searching for "plus has loaded" with www.Clusty.com. Do you have a CyberPower Uninterruptable Power Supply? The voice may actually be saying "Power Panel Plus has loaded." Do you have a little flashlight battery icon in your tray (lower right corner of your screen)? If so, click on that to open UPS Management. It will show the CyberPower PowerPanelPlus, which gives information about your UPS. Click on Setup and, if you wish, you can uncheck "Play voice" and I'm guessing your voice will not be there the next time you Start or Restart. I just now noticed the request for an email response so I'll copy this to an email as well, but leave it here in case anyone else has the same question. Good luck, Curmudge SignatureCurmudge |
