Sometimes you ***** things up so badly that the only way out is to start over. I reinstalled OS, all apps and data (only about six hours) and...
This is now working, but sporadically. I haven't picked up a pattern on when the links break, but from suggestions above about having identical...
I'm splitting out my laptop problems from the "Sharing Printers" thread, because I now understand these to be two separate issues. To recap -...
And now some further progress. Although I cannot connect through the "Add printer" route, I can connect through "My network places." Only...
Actually, I have now. The desktop that works has no additional accounts on it - just Administrator and Guest. For the one that does not work, I...
I had to reinstall Windows 2000. Don't remember how I did it more than a year ago. A CD will play, but video presentation, e.g. from my ISP, are...
I have discovered that one desktop and one laptop work fine, permitting printing on one of the printers from the laptop. The network is in the...
It's clear you understand, so let me follow your reply in sequence. I'm fairly sure all machines have the same workgroup name, because I never...
I have the same problem with a computer I just set up. When I saw the suggestion, I looked at Themes and saw it was blank. So I set it to...
What I want to do is easy, according to online help and Windows 2000 for Dummies. Only problem is it just plain doesn't work! I have 2...
I'll try. Forgot what HTML would do to the post. Actually, when loading OS or applications and/or booting from the secondary drive (main drive...
Newt, I'll keep your tips handy as I start the project. I wonder now, if I characterise drive usage correctly, rather than with the unthinking...
Nothing worthwhile comes easy, it seems. Thanks for the heads-up. I would hate to go to all that work and end up with an unbootable system.
You've got the intellectual juices flowing. Think I'll work both the "install" and "don't install" path. Posting here so others can check my...
Yes, I'm still tottering on the brink about a re-install. The AV will not install from media, and other s/w, such as Norton (which is available...
Okay, some progress. After installing Startup Control Panel (and tipping Mike 5 bucks), I unchecked all the "All User" programs, as they were...
At startup, I get a message, "This version of Serv-U is out of date..." Since there is no mention of such program in Add/Remove Programs or in...
Tall order, gents! It'll have to wait until weekend, when I have ample time, then I'll report back results. Not sure I know how to run the...
I have a fresh install of W2K - 5 to 6 weeks old, rock stable. Decided to upgrade. One of the first upgrades is SP3, which results in blue...
Thanks for the reply. Yes, both your assumptions are correct - the other computer is W2K and the router is Linksys broadband - BEFSR41. OK - I...
