Re: Adobe Reader issues

1. Obtaining and installing drivers from Driverguide.com is NOT for the
amateur, which Angel is. Hell, I don't even like trying to find drivers on
that site. Real easy to get lost and not find the right driver(s), and the
wrong ones will just make Angel's situation worse. If she was certain what
hardware she had, I would have found her the drivers a long time ago. It's a
long story. Oh, and the machine was given to Angel, she is using it as a
spare bedroom machine, and she already has a newer one that she uses for her
main purposes, though it's still rather old and not able to decently support
more than Win98SE.

2. Your knowledge of networking hardware is pitiful. How in the world is a
router supposed to replace a wireless adapter? She already HAS a router,
with wireless included. What she needs is an adapter for the computer, to
replace the NIC that's already in it. Yes, it is probably difficult or
impossible to find a wireless adapter (PCI card for the computer) for
Windows 95 or 98 Original Edition, but almost every wireless adapter I've
been able to find this morning supports Windows 98 SE just fine, and that's
what Angel has -- Windows 98 SE.

3. Your spelling is atrocious. Learn to spell properly, and maybe someone
will take you a bit more seriously. Then again, your current habits, both in
spelling and thinking, suggest that this may be a futile enterprise.

Re: Adobe Reader issues

My apologies for the invective in my previous message. I've had a
frustrating and scary morning at the doctor's, and dealing with Angel's
issues can also be quite frustrating.

Again, my apologies for the meanness. It was uncalled for.

That's comforting to hear, I thought I was the only one that had trouble. :)
 
Re: Adobe Reader issues

Dear Mr Gary,
Thank you for ur comment.

i also told that i doubt about the new wireless adoptor supports for win
95/98.

i ask her to do cabled network from router to machine.
it works much better and it need some configuration only
no chance of driver / hardware conflict, mismatch ect.

I know i am not well in english, As u told i will certainly try to improve
it.

i will try to change the "futile enterprise" into a "fruitful enterprise"
with regards
Vinoth

Re: Adobe Reader issues

Well, see, there you have it. I take it as a given that if it is reasonably
possible to use hard wiring I will always go that way. I assume that if a
wireless is even being considered, it's because it's mobile or it's
extremely inconvenient to hard wire.

Anyway, as I said, I was in an agitated state and didn't take the time to
read your post thoroughly or even try to understand it fully. I am always
put off by the shorthand you're learning -- "ur" for "your" or "you're" (and
there is an important difference between those last two.). Please, if you
want to learn English, learn proper English. What you are learning is a
short-hand that only came into broad use a few years ago. You won't find any
serious information, whether in books or on the Net, written in "net speak".
At least, I don't.
