We typically use PWSafe to generate and store passwords ( I've got ~200 different ones for various "applications") Typically use 8 to 16 character, UPPER/ lower, numbers and special characters. ...

I'm using Win2K PCs and WinXP SP1 PCs with all the approved patches that the corporate IT deem as as required and use MS Remote Connections software to connect to similarly patched WinXP SP1 PCs. The...

Youngest daughter's Compaq Armada E500 Laptop's battery died and would not take a charge so she went out and got another one. The message I got today was:

Thanks for all the replies.
I'm just a "lowly PC user" here at work and had to finagle to get administrator privileges set up for me so I have no access to WinXP setup disks so the Recovery Option...

104456,
Thanks for the prompt response.

I'm logging onto a private LAN I have setup between a few PCs at work that recently were upgraded from WinNT 4.0 to WinXP SP1. In addition, I had to drive map to some other servers and my personal...

I'm a little late in the discussion but Fred Langa recently covered this in his newsletter of what he tried and found. The following includes links from his 2004-3-22 emailing.

Or, move into the new age and use a CD to boot if you have a CD writer as outlined here.
You may also need to go into the BIOS and set it up so it boots from CD before the HD.

I agree with Train, try a floppy created on the bad in another PC or read one of the bad floppies that won't read on the questionable machine on another box. Had a PB 486 do this once and all my...

My 160Gb WD 7200 RPM was $79 in the last month at BestBuy after $90 in rebates with the necessary PCI card to go bigger than 130Gb on older mobo systems, $0.50/ Gb. Saw a 80Gb WD for $20 within...

Yes, as shown on page 19 of the manual (Rev 1.0 manual that is, assume it's the same on Rev 2 which is probably what you have just installed).
Let us know how it turns out.

I would guess that Windows was reinstalled on that system at one time and it went to a new directory. Seen it once before with a "c:\windows.000" on Win98 or Win95 setup in addition to the...

Lately WinXP Pro takes more time than usual to wake up once a I come back to the system after it has been idle and left on. It will show the basic desktop background for around 10 seconds before...

The newer ASUS board has it's IDE set up so you can directly hook up the newer high capacity Ultra 133 HDs without needing a separate PCI controller card such as a Highpoint TX2 to access it.

Vernon,
Is there a website out there that has other little know "tricks" like the one above or were they just thing you learned long ago when there was only DOS available?

Terry,
Wish I had seen this posting earlier as I could have saved you some headaches. Went through this exact sort of problem about a year ago. Same conclusion: ZA Free doesn't support ICS. My...
