    Re: system tray pop up message

    No the signal strength remains the same. It's just constantly reminding me that it's still receiving signal as strong as it did the last minute.

    It's as annoying as my 10-year old asking me that age old question while enroute to the beach, "Are we there yet?"

    Hmmm next time my kid asks me that repeatedly, I'll tell him, "yeah we passed it already".

      It's changing from "Very Good", then to "Excellent" and then to "Very Good" again? If so that is a change in status.

      As opposed to saying "Excellent", "Excellent", "Excellent" all the time.

        Funny though as none of my other computers have that problem.
        Take a look at this info that apparently helped somebody fix this very same problem. Seems easy enough to try, but as always back up your registry first.

          Sounds good, I'll try it next time I have the energy to re-edit my registry and after I try Aaron's suggestion of using the MS Powertoy.

            To answer your question, yes as opposed.

              You mean after exerting all that energy trying to help you find what would appear to be a sure solution to your problem, you don't even have the energy to give it a try? See ya. Wouldn't wanna be ya.

              Lazy big island style computer tech bum.

                Lazy big island style computer tech bum.

                It's not like I gotta do it right away, as I'm on another computer that doesn't have that problem.

                Here's the breakdown for attempting a re-edit sooner than later:

                1) I'd have to pull out the IBM Thinkpad and boot it up instead of being here on HT
                2) I'd actually have to do what you told me to do
                3) Then I'd be chatting away on my small IBM Thinkpad's screen instead of my desktop's larger and more comfortable monitor.


                By being lazy, I can avoid 1-3 and stay here on the Big Island where it's justified to be lazy.

                I'll take the latter. Re-edits will always be available to this lazy bum, but to take advantage of being lazy is a rare opportunity for me and I'll choose to be lazy if I can. thank you

                And furthermore...at least this BIg Island style computer tech bum can speak good engrish and is in the same time zone as most of us here

                Ho man all that effort used up too much energy, and here on the Big Island it's all about energy conservation
