How do I bridge the connections in XP?? I am using XP Pro on this computer.

I have two DSL's - one is cable modem and the other is telephone co. DSL. I have two different internet connections in my computer - one is an NVIDIA nForce networking Controller and the other is Marvell Yukon 88E8003/8010 PCI Gigabit Ethernet Controller. I can't seem to get them to play nice when ...

I have lots of tasks running in windows 98 and I am looking for a list of what should be running - like the lists of services I have found for XP. Can anyone help me. This computer is very slow and has some problems. I have run adaware and spybot as well as AVG. All of them found several problems ...

TruckerT

it seems like everytime I end a program, start a program, or most anything in between my desktop is rewritten - all the icons are redrawn. I have a fast system, so it only takes a sec or two, but it is anoying. I have looked in a couple of the xp tweek programs, but I can't find anything about it. I ...

I have finally partitioned my C drive, a 220 gig SATA Raid 0 array. Now I would like to put all of my data files - everything XP uses in a dynamic way - temp etc. on drive D. Is there an easy way to have windows do this for me without any reinstalling of XP or applications?? I am trying to avoid any ...

Thanks 64bit, I saw that myself and sent them an email yesterday, but have only had an automated response so far. What a way to support your customers.

I looked on the website and can't find an upgrade - I have Version 8.01 (Build 1274) 3/14/2003. Symantec does not have an upgrade as far as I can tell - could you tell me where I might find the upgrade file????

TruckerT

Thanks Bradmph, but Windows XP Pro doesn't use scandisk - that is for 98 and ME.

I am trying to partition my HD and I get errors with PartitionMagic. It says error 1513, I need to run chkdsk. I run chkdsk with the /f option, reboot - it runs and says errors are fixed. Then back to PartitionMagic, but it says I have errors. Back to chkdsk, back to PartitionMagic...... If I run ...

Thanks, glears, but I am not up to speed on P2P programs. Oh, I know what they are, but I don't have the first clue how to go about finding one.

I wouldn't mind taking the risk as I backup all my stuff to a DVD drive quite often. Just would rather not have to go through a complete restore, then ...

I need to partition my raid 0 disks. They are 220 gig. total and right now it is just drive C: with XP Pro running on it. I would like to split it into three drives - one for XP (C), one for Mandrake Leniux (D) and the third for data (E).

I don't want to spend 60 bucks for a one time use of a ...

Try using messenger and have the user ask you for assistance - that will give you control much like pc anywhere.

TruckerT

Thanks Stonecat, but I would like to get all the extra bloat out of my harddrive if I can.

TruckerT

I have been using MSN Messenger 6.1 for some time now and everything seemed to be going along fine. I did a windows update today and , not paying attention, installed the update for messenger 4.7 - which microsoft said I needed. Now I have two messengers on my computer and I would like to uninstall ...

I finally got it, the video card was causing problems - I guess I cut too many corners on cost building this system. By replacing the video card with a high quality agp card it worked fine.

TruckerT

Thanks for all the help, but so far nothing has worked. The board is apm 1.2 and acpi compliant.

TruckerT

I went through the bios and couldn't find anything about APM. I enabled everything in the power area and still will not turn off.

TruckerT

I have a biostar mobo in a system (M7NCD - A02) that I just installed XP Home on and it will not shut down. If I shut it down via the start>turn off computer it just restarts. I have searched the Microsoft Knowledgebase and it said to turn on the APM in the control panel Power Options. All I see is ...

I have a speedstream DSL modem - plugged into that I have a Linksys BERFW11S4 Wireless - B Broadband Router - into it I have two computers and a Netgear ProSafe VPN Firewall switch - and into it I have 6 more systems plugged in. All systems are running either XP Pro, XP Home or W2K.

The problem I ...

TruckerT

I have a local area network with 8 systems. If I reboot one of them it has trouble logging into the hard disks of some of the other machines. 3 of the systems are running Win XP Pro and the others are running W2K pro.

I would like all systems to be able to get to all systems without the necessity ...

I am looking for feedback on download programs. The type that automatically split the download into several pieces and effectively decrease the time necessary to download files. I have tried a few, but most seem a bit high in price for what they do. Any thoughts anybody????

TruckerT

You mean that error is not because my system is overclocked??? I have had several errors like that using current released version of the console. Everytime I got an error I backed off the overclock thinking it was my pooter being flakey.

I always got partial credit for the work so I am thinking I ...

TruckerT

Yes, I understand that now - after you explained it to me it did seem normal that it wouldn't work. Thanks for the education. Everything I learn in this business is valuable.

TruckerT

That solved the problem - Thanks very much Stonecat. I do appreciate it.

TruckerT

Thanks Stonecat - do I need a special cable to do the uplink??? or just a reg cat5 cable??? I found where to disable the DHCP and the LAN ip address. Doesn't seem to be the same as Linksys.

TruckerT

I have a LAN with 9 computers here at the house. Before adding the Linksys wireless-b broadband router everything worked fine (only 8 systems then). I had all 8 systems plugged into a netgear FVS318 and it was plugged into my speedstream 5200 adsl modem provided by the DSL company.

When adding the ...

What gives?? I have six systems waiting to turn in work, two of them have two work units each. I have restarted the work to see if they would send the units - even tried the sendall switch and none of them can get in touch with the server - except to get new work, but that is a different server.

If ...

I am looking for a Defrag program that does a good job. I know there are some programs that don't do much more than the Windows one, but I would not mind paying a bit for a really good quality program. Anyone know of any???? I am trying out PerfectDisk at the moment.

TruckerT

It finished yesterday - on two of my computers, but it can't connect to the server to send the workunits. It was able to pickup new work, but the finished units are sitting there ready to send - everytime it tries it says not able to connect with the server.

My daily output is suffering, but it ...

TruckerT

I have two systems that have not been able to send any work units to the servers. Is this a problem with the servers, or is it something on my end? Anyone else having a problem????

TruckerT

Yes, I saw that earlier this morning. The server must be having problems - can't even get to the server picture.

TruckerT

Wll, making a jack to plug into the phone is no big deal, and the point is I am on the phone all day long - right now using a headset and a boom mic. I don't like the setup and would like to use the Telex M-560 USB digital mic on my computer and my Bose earphones.

Might be max overkill, but I can ...

TruckerT

I would like to use the mic on my computer and the speakers (earphones) to be able to talk on the phone. My phone has a headset jack on it and I would like to plug in the output from the computer (mic) along with the input from the phone (earphones).

I know there are some voice modem programs out ...

TruckerT

How do you tell how many points a unit is worth??? Here I am folding away with several machines - totally in the dark, anybody got a flashlight I can borrow????

TruckerT

I have never seen points so low. I have 2 work units for a total of 10.30 points??? Also, just before that I have 2 work units for 24.60 points??? That seems very low based on the history of points I have received in the past.

TruckerT

It looks like it is taking EOC stats over an hour to post the stats. They must really be using a Commodor 64.

TruckerT

Thanks, Stonecat. I am now quite confused. What I want to do is have all the computers on my LAN (7 at present and counting) running 10/100 with no bottlenecks to the internet. How do I do that?

TruckerT

YES - That is what I was looking for, thank you. I actually found it on my hard disk - need to eat more fish, brain needs food.

TruckerT

I am looking for a router with 8 Lan ports at 10/100 and the WAN input port also at 10/100. I can find several 8 port routers, but the WAN side is only 10, not 10/100. Anybody have any hot tips for me????

TruckerT

I know there is a little program for defraging the boot sector, but I can't find it - most likely because I don't remember it's name. Anybody got it handy???
