just for being quick I ended up using the backITup from nero to burn to DVDs. I think it would have been faster to get the ghost working on the ext. HD but I just need the backup and had the time so.

BigAmp

First off thank you all for the replys. I have ghost but todate I have had too many problems with the DOS USB drives to get that to work. so I am trying the Acronis True Image. I would like to get the ghost working, then I would be able to run an image to my portable ext. HD every once and a while ...

BigAmp

I would be planing on doing backups that way yes. but if I can't get into windows for some reason what am I to do then???? no floppy drive and the ghost CD itself is not a boot CD so??????

I am just trying to think ahead for a time when something craps out on me and I need to fix it.

BigAmp

BigAmp

I guess I did not give the right info as to why I want the boot CD and the image to not be one and the same.

I am planing on a weekly backup of the whole laptop. it is a 40 GB drive and I am using about 12 or 13 GB already. so I would be backing up about 13GB every week. I am going with that would ...

BigAmp

I have just got a iomega Portable 60GB HDD to back up my laptop that I use for school. It came with Norton Ghost 2003.

So what I was wanting to do was to make a Boot CD with Firewire and USB support for my Ghost. I don't have a Floppy on my laptop so a boot disk is no good to me.

The laptop is ...

BigAmp

I would feel realy bad but no one else pick up on that untill I had it fix.

BigAmp

Hey all,

Finaly fix it. SP2 had disabled NetBIOS over TCP/IP. I had a look over my System log in Event Viewer from the Admin tools. I found an error with the MRxSub source, so that pointed me to the NetBIOS not being active.

I all so finaly found the problem with my codec not working. SP2 had ...

BigAmp

well I see by the 802.11G you are going with the 1G wireless router. you need to watch out for a few things to do with a wireless phones in the house. a 900Mhz phone can mix with your DSL connectionand a phone in the same band as your router and realy grind your network done to a stop. ie 2.4Ghz ...

BigAmp

BigAmp

ok here is the setting from there. no WINS addresses, enable LMHOSTS lookup and disabled netBIOS over TCP/IP.

Well I am in class now so I have now tryed the laptop on all three networks I use it on and I can not see anything on the network but my own workgroup but I can not see my own laptop or ...

How is TCP handled on the network, DHCP? DHCP is enabled.
What protocols are the default for the office network? no clue.

Just SP2 is the Devil. so many people in my program at school have had problems because of that.most have ether just uninstalled it, or done a system restore to before they installed it. one of my friends could not even have his computer reboot after installing it, it was just freez when it got to ...

BigAmp

BigAmp

now what was going on in the peoples heads when they named there town that?

BigAmp

all I can think of is the comic book guy from the Simpson's with the wheelbarrow of buritos........

but that is one way to punish the crapper!

BigAmp

with the amount of time they would have spent on that, I am guessin' even that guy could have got a real girlfriend!

wow, I hope he dose not still live with his folks.

but it is kool.

BigAmp

I don't think so, we just had to get the key installed so they know only the poeple in the right programs can get on to the school network. I am just out of it, or is there not Globle MTU value some where in the reg? but just in case how would I till if I did have ICS?

BigAmp

I can't remeber what ICS means, we needed to get are laptops to have a key installed so we would be let on the network if that is what you mean. in rez it would just be the firewall.

BigAmp

HI all,

I can't belive I am having to ask this again but I just can't remeber and I can't find an answer in any of the sites info, I am getting my laptop set up and I can not get the MTU to change for me. it keeps showing up as 1420.

BigAmp

BigAmp

this is a big problum for @home, your getting booted off the server, it all them on not your computer. this can happen for one of two things, big amouts of upload/download from your connection or they have too many connections for there server to handle.

BigAmp

thanks, I hope I will not be back later this week when I try to get this thing going again.

BigAmp

OK, its an old IBM 233MHz intel P I, I think its a phonix BIOS, I don't think I can give you more then that right now.

but I did try the RAM out in anther computer and found it to be blown, so I think it is just giving me the error becouse there is no working RAM in the computer. sound right?

BigAmp

hey, I getting 1, 3, 1 beeps when I boot up on a computer that I'm making into a Linux box, this would be a "RAM Refresh Verification Error" I have tryed new RAM and two difrent morthboard, what wrong?????
