A friend of mine is having a pb with a laptop. When he clicks on a link in IE, the entire machine sometimes freezes and the only way out is to...
*Whew* that was a bit of a monster :eek: . I had noticed that Windows 2000 and XP machines don't seem to want to play nicely on the network...
It took me a bit of head scratching before I remembered what a POS is too, so I fully sympathise. I was thinking about this yesterday evening....
Did you find my post on Wilders Security, Close_Hauled :) ? If not, that's good, because the concensus on the two fora is converging - see...
OK thanks. As you probably gathered from my tests I suspected malware too. I want to try and track down what is the cause of the problem,...
A computer to computer link has an advantage. But before I go on to that, make sure you buy a crossover cable (a modem uses a straight-through...
I have two PC's on a LAN, one XP Pro SP1 (with all patches except SP2, which caused me considerable grief) and one NT4.0 SP6. Mostly the NT...
I usually just hook up a modem and check that typing in ATH0 and ATH1 into a terminal program change the line status of the modem. That tells...
I've got around this admin note: as stated in the forum Posting Rule #6
Fixed - I hope Just in case anyone's reading through this old thread, I think this problem is now sorted. I had a long talk with an MS techie,...

Fun? Fun? No, this is fun (I bumped into this yesterday evening whilst searching the net for something work-related). Take care with that...
Yeah - your post came in while I was posting. Your choices are limited. You need to establish which components are working, one by one, and...
The bad news is that ATX is much harder to fault trace than AT, and since this machine sounds very elderly (no processor fan) you have to ask...
This sort of problem is best tackled with a voltmeter. I don't suppose you have one do you? Without one you not only don't know if all the...
I've done the same as suferdude, and I've also turned off System Restore, which is a real disk space hog. I've tried System Restor-ing twice on...
Not necessarily. I've just had this problem on three PCs. On one I condemned the motherboard and stuck the machine in the loft, though I...
Many thanks for your efforts, Joe. I'm no longer in contact with the MS techie, though he had no idea what the problem was anyway because it's...
OK. To me the result looked the same :(.
No. Take a closer look, and you'll see that each type of connector is a different size. Just like you don't bash square pegs into round holes,...
