The Little Guy Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 This has been bugging me... On one of my computers when I press "Ctrl+Alt+S" it is supposed to save but the problem is that instead it brings up a "HP Pavilion Support Information" window. Anyone know how to make "Ctrl+Alt+S" save instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkWater Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Ctrl+S is usually the save hotkey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waynewex Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Yea... CTRL & S... isn't it? Nevermind, just try CTRL & W. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Ctrl + Alt + S is 'save as' I believe.. What program is this in?? Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.josh Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 ctrl+alt+s does whatever the program wants it to do. It's not exactly a standard, though people do generally try to informally keep certain things standard. It would help if you told us what program (and version) and what OS you are using.

Mchl Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 You talk like if it was some big deal. At least you can save using mouse. Early versions of Intel's driver for touchpad used in many laptops, stole Alt+l combination for some dark purposes. Coicidentaly, Alt+l is also a combination to get ł - quite a popular letter in my language (and also one I have in my name). Luckily they issued a patch several months later. Until then I just disabled this driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until then I just disabled this driver. Yeah I hate when software vendors do not take foreign keymaps into considerations. A lot of programs have shortcuts that are like Ctrl+[, but on Danish keyboards the [ is made using AltGr+8, so Ctrl+[ would be Ctrl+AltGr+8, but AltGr=Ctrl+Alt, so Ctrl+[=Ctrl+Ctrl+Alt+8=impossible.

The Little Guy Posted January 29, 2009 Author Share Posted January 29, 2009 1. Navigate to: Start | All Programs | PC Help & Tools 2. Right-click on HP Support Information and select Properties 3. On the Shortcuts tab, delete the keyboard shortcut using the backspace key 4. Hit Apply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.josh Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 so...starbuck has some dead doppleganger on earth. I think going through that wormhole thing back in season 3 brought her back in time and it inadvertently caused the destruction of earth, and the resurrection ship at earth somehow rezzed her and spewed back through the wormhole to the present. That kind of explains the whole "All this has happened before" thing going on. Discuss.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
