Windows pop ups

[Mike Reed]

This is not really a PTE issue but somebody out there may know the answer.

Have just changed my Lap Top which I use when showing my AV's. The new one is wireless enabled and state of the art or so I am told by the retailer. However it seems to be blessed with numerous pop ups giving me all sorts of helpful messages like 'it has found a wireless network do I wish to connect' which in normal circumstances is fine but in the middle of a show is B....y annoying. Does anybody know of a way to comit these to a don't go near my desk top scenario?

I always disable the wireless connection before showing my AVs. Go to Network Connections on the Start Menu, right click the appropriate connection(s) and click "disable". It stays that way until you re-enable, even over reboots.

Thanks Ken

Having looked at the sites you mention I think I will leave this one to somebody more capable than me. Fiddling with the Registry fills me with fear. Luckily I have somebody who does not mind, so next time he's around I have a job for him.
