We recently had to get a new hard drive but previously when you typed in
information for example as a search word in various sites, the computer would
automatically enter it again. Say you went to an ebay search and typed in a
word then the next time you just needed to type one letter and it would list
all your searches beginning with that letter. My question is how can we set
that up again. Apparently it was already set that way when we first got the
computer but now with the new hard drive the setting is gone. Any help would
be appreciated.

Click to expand...

Go to Control Panel and double click on Internet Options.
Click on the Content tab.
On the Content page, click on the AutoComplete button.
Put a check mark in the boxes next to whatever options you want
to enable.
Click OK twice.
