Easy mistake to make Newt. It's not an obvious path. To be honest, I always find the HOSTS file by doing a file search of the Windows (or WINNT)...
If you can't ping the site by IP, then this is not a DNS name resolution problem. I'm not sure what to suggest. The fact that you can browse...
That is not an arrangement I've seen before. However, there are some basic principles that I can use to suggest possible solutions. DHCP...
Yes, I am fairly confident (from your description) that if you select disable, this will turn off your connection to the DSL service. However, I...
I apologise if I'm stating the obvious, but: Make sure you backup your important data before you start. Copy what you can to E first.
Can you please add a little more clarification? Mainly because the terms "modem" "router" are often incorrectly interchanged, and DSL can cover...
I'd have a chat with the college staff who look after the network. This could be symptomatic of there being a virus on the network, which I think...
I think it likely the floppy drive is faulty. They are very cheap and easy to replace, so I'd suggest you do that. The only thing to be careful...
If you can set the PCs up with static IPs, I doubt it is anything to do with winsock. In fact I doubt it's anything to do with winsock full stop....
I am a great fan of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." This together with your comments (perhaps on another thread) about your satisfaction with...
I daren't, the experience may just be too traumatic. :D Well done for sussing the problem and putting me right.
ssmith10pn may well be right that this is a cable issue. However, reading your initial post one thought struck me, when you changed the...
First I'd suggest you try connecting to the site via the IP address rather than the DNS name. http://199.237.53.20 seems to be approriate...
As I said in an earlier posting, the MAC address is tied to the network card. If you keep the same network card in the PC your PC's MAC address...
ssmith10pn is right ssmith10pn, You're right. I'm wrong. After reading your comments I thought I'd better do some more thorough research to...
ssmith10pn, That doesn't sound right. The MAC address is a layer 2 address. It provides connectivity within the immediate Ethernet network....
RAID 0. Striping no parity. The data held on the disks is spread across the array in what are called stripes. The system can read and write to...
First I'd state that I am glad you have the system working the way you want. Also I thoroughly agree with your comments about good documentation...
I guess it could be possible that the motherboard is frying network cards, but I've not seen nor heard of that before and for me it doesn't ring...
My first reaction would be yes, but you may well break the system by doing so. That is when the user next logs onto PC2, the system will see the...
