@admintech How do you not close Adobe Reader properly? Or is it a latent bug in the software?

If you meant the Open file dialogs, then specify that in your question. "Browse to folder" could mean anything.

comment Windows 7 Paint program says my file name is an invalid bmp file
The Paint program in Windows 7 defaults to PNG for its image format. If you typed .bmp at the end of the file it might have overridden the .png extension, despite it still being in the PNG format.

comment How can I stream media from my desktop to other PCs on my home LAN?
Windows Media Player 12 is excellent. I used to use Winamp back in the XP days, where I'd agree, Windows Media Player just was not an application I'd use primarily. I rarely used it at all. But these days it has become my primary media player, since I got fed up with Winamp's instabilities.

I stream content between my Windows 7 PCs using Windows Media Player UPNP and shared folders quite a bit (depending on what I feel like using at the time). I don't know about subtitles either though; I haven't tried that out.

comment BIOS upgrade lowers CPU temperature
@Breakthrough good catch, thanks. Quickly glancing through the product page on Asus' site, this wasn't obvious to me (tiny board photos and all).

comment Can BLANK computer be reinstalled (OS) with system image?
+1 for TrueImage. I used TrueImage to image my HDD and then restore it after I set up RAID on my desktop. It allows you to be able to restore disk images (including full Windows installations) on a new disk even if it's not the same size or type. And since I was setting up RAID, it even allowed me to inject the RAID driver into the Windows image during restore. Very powerful software.

comment Why are there two versions of IE9 (32 and 64 bit) on my machine?
@Phoshi I would expect that the high RAM usage would be due to some video plugins or Flash, or perhaps it's loading a lot of high-resolution images, or the javascript needs 64 bits of precision for a special use case. But since Flash is typically 32-bit, it might not be a realistic thing to expect right now, true. However, there is a niche group that uses 64-bit browsers. Most of us only care about the 32-bit one.
