- OPERA STARTUP DIALOG
-
- This dialog is presented to you upon next startup if Opera crashes. You
- have the following options:
-
- "Continue where the interruption occurred"
-
- Opera will start up showing the windows that you had open before the
- crash.
-
- "Start with saved windows"
-
- Opera will start showing the windows that you had last saved.
-
- "Start with no windows"
-
- Opera starts with no open windows to minimize the risk of crashing.
-
- Make your selection and press the "OK" button to continue.
-
-
- ADVANCED STARTUP SETTINGS
-
- By clicking on the "Advanced startup settings" button, you will see the
- following options:
-
- "Minimize number of simultaneous connections"
-
- The number of connections that Opera can possibly have through the
- connection software is controlled in the "Connections" part of the
- "File/Preferences" dialog, and normally this number can be set quite
- high, but on some systems, Opera will not be able to exchange
- information with the Internet at the number of connections that can be
- made logically, which may result in a crash. Ticking this box will set
- the number of connections to a maximum of four (4), preventing this kind
- of overload.
-
- "Minimize network buffer size"
-
- Checking this box will set the size of the network buffer very low,
- which may be very convenient as having a large network buffer may render
- your system very unstable in some cases. The size of the network buffer
- will be set to 1 kB for the duration of your Opera session. If you find
- that this is beneficial to your system, you may permanently set the size
- of the network buffer low in "File/Preferences", "Connections".
-
- "Synchronous DNS"
-
- Normally, Opera uses DNS asynchronously in order to be able to retrieve
- information from the Internet in multiple windows at the same time, but
- enabling synchronous DNS may be a good idea if you are experiencing
- problems with your network's "Winsock" implementation, or if you are
- connecting to a server that does not permit asynchronous data transmit.
- This setting is toggled in the "File/Preferences", "Connections" menu.
-
-
- Note that if you wish to disable this dialog, check the box marked "Do
- not show this dialog again".
