Click For Summary
The user reports an issue with Opera 8 where closing the main window triggers an explosive sound and a fleeting confirmation window to save the session. Despite reinstalling the software, the problem persists. Suggestions include trying an earlier version of Opera, such as Opera 7, to determine if the issue is related to the current version or a Windows component. As an alternative, switching to other browsers like Firefox or Netscape is recommended. The user has since repaired the installation.

HI everyone

I installed Opera 8 a while back. Each time I close the main window, an explosion is heard and the confirmation window (to save the session) appears only for a second and disappears with the explosive sound. I reinstalled the program yet I am facing the same difficulty. If you have any idea about this, please let me know.

Cheers

Hmm i never came across this problem. I tried to google for this problem, unfortunately i couldn't find any such problem being stated on net.

I will suggest u to try previous versions of opera (opera 7 maybe) and see if this problem sustains, if yes then the problem is most likely to be some component of windows that opera could be using. Ofcourse this is all speculations and u could save urself a lot of trouble by trying some other browser like firefox or netscape.

I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
