CD Registry

Post by Murray Glue Christine Ba »

We have tried many times to search the CD registry pages here, but we
end up with the computer locked up at the end of a long download. It
has to be rebooted to escape the lock up. Is the registry in good work-
ing order ??

We would also appreciate anyone passing on an email or fax contact
number for Mansfield Plumbing Products, if they are still in existence.
We have a TDX toilet treatment unit on our CD30, and would like to
source parts for it.

Many thanks.

Murray,
I just tried to access the registry, sorted by length, and it only took a few seconds. I wonder if the registry has a hard time crossing the equator!!! I'm sure Walt will note your post and check it for proper operation, but a/o 0630 EST, 12/23, it seems to be working OK.

Merry Christmas, fair winds and following seas...

The registry is working but slow. The problem is that it has gotten pretty large - over 150K bytes - and since it is a table, your browser needs to read the whole thing before it can display any of it.

Look at the status line at the bottom of your browser as you load the registry page - it should report the progress so you can tell if it's grinding along or just stuck.

If your computer is really hanging, it is conceivable that the table is so large that your browser crashes from it - particularly if you don't have a lot of RAM on your machine.
