    Need some LinkSys Help

    I'm at work now... so I can't try anything, but the router is a WRT54G v.2.0 wireless router with the latest firmware flashed. When I was checking that the IP addresses for both desktops was correctly entered in trusted IPs, I noticed the first line which was an IP installed by the system or...

    Need some LinkSys Help

    My XP Pro laptop is currently at work, not home. I'll have it home this weekend. I disabled the firewall on the two side-by-side machines (both of them) and still cannot see one from the other, yet both are functioning OK other than that. Both these machines are running W2K Pro, so I don't...

    Need some LinkSys Help

    Hey Tazuk... Thanks for the help. I was able to rename the network per your link/instructions and after rebooting it shows up with the correct name. But... I still can't communicate between machines. In the McAfee firewall software, I included the IP addresses of both wired machines sitting...

    Need some LinkSys Help

    I recently started using Comcast's free McAfee Security Firewall and Anti-Virus, and I've been pulling my hair out ever since. Whether it was my mistake or whatever, I'm committed to using it and I'd like to get this fixed. My home network runs on a 54G v.2.0 LinkSys router with the latest...

    Hard Drive Beeping?

    I have a IBM Deskstar 41.0 Gig drive, relatively new (built June 2001) that has been a slave drive in one of my PCs. I had some problems with this machine and subsequently installed a new root drive and OS. I had saved a lot of data to my slave before making the switch, and when I reassembled...

    W2K hanging on install

    No apparent bad caps, but then I'm not 100% sure either. I'm going to totally disassemble and take a break on this. I'm in over my head, and I could probably buy a replacement mobo and just redo the system then. I'm pretty much convinced something is fishy with the motherboard. Probably a...

    W2K hanging on install

    Just wanted to thank everyone for trying to help me out here. I've built dozens of PCs and this whole W2K install has me totally confused. You guys are all very helpful, and I'll try any suggestions you have before throwing the motherboard out. BTW, just for kicks, I brought the new drive...

    W2K hanging on install

    Just a few notes: The machine is homebuilt, Soyo Dragon Plus motherboard with an Antec case and Enermax 400W PS. Video card is a ATI Radeon 8500DV, memory is a single 512 stick of PC2400 Mushkin, I have removed all the PCI cards, and last night on my final try, I tried using W2K (4)...

    W2K hanging on install

    Quick Overview: HDDs had too much data on them promptin me to add some capacity. Removed old root 10 Gig drive and tried using a fresh sealed 40 Gig HDD as my new root. Machine had been acting flaky prior to switch, probably because drive had 90%+ load. So here's an update: 1. Removed all...

    W2K hanging on install

    I've tried setting the BIOS to CD-ROM as the 1st boot device and that didn't work. I think tomorrow I remove all the PCI cards as yes... there is a second video card in that mix along with a couple of SCSIs. Only one stick of memory and I've tried it in slot 1 and slot three (there are 3...

    W2K hanging on install

    I'm in the process of rebuilding my desktop pc and I had some issues with the old drive and install... some dlls were missing and the drive was getting flaky. So I bought a fresh new 40 gig drive and proceeded to start over, thinking once I get it running, I'll pull any usefull files off the...

    Problem with using different ISP from DSL provider

    eyec... Since we have Verizon as our DSL provider, lets call them my ISP. Now, Map Internet is also an ISP, but all they do for us is host our web page, and allow me to use an email. If I go to map internet online, I can logon using my email address and password. I can read and send mail...

    Problem with using different ISP from DSL provider

    Awingnut... Maybe I confused you... sorry. Here's the deal: 1. We use Verizon Biz DSL to access the internet. 2. We use Map to host our web page (much cheaper I guess). 3. I'm receiving mail fine with the setup using mail.map.com as my mail server (incoming). 4. Verizon bounces back ALL...

    Problem with using different ISP from DSL provider

    At work, we are using verizon dsl. Our web page is hosted by a small (local?)ISP called MAP Internet. I have a email address that uses our domain name that was working fine until a couple of weeks ago. Apparently verizon is taking measures to prevent spam and they are not (easily) allowing...

    Automatic Login in OE disabled?

    I'm using W2K and Outlook Express on a hand-me-down PC where we imported all my mail settings, and what I can't figure out is that OE is asking me to enter my password for every time I try to download mail, send mail, or re-open the program. There doesn't appear to be anything wrong with the...

    Need Help with Forte Free Agent - Won't Authenticate

    While Agent worked this morning, it won't work tonight and I'm baffled. Everytime I try to download new headers, I get an error 480, server failed to authenticate. I check my settings and everything seems OK, even tried it with Zone Alarm shut down... no dice. All other access to the internet...

    How do I Import Transparent Background GIFs into Visio 2000?

    Digitall... Apparently MS will not sell SR-1 on CD nor do they offer it for downloading on their web site. Go figure. They want us to buy Visio 2003 as an upgrade. This is just like Corel... always fixing things or releasing before the program was 100% bug proof. Well, if you know of any...

    How do I Import Transparent Background GIFs into Visio 2000?

    Hey Digital... Yup, I'm using plain old Visio 2000 (v.6.0.0.1245) but I can't find SP1 (yet) online at MS... have to keep looking. You should go to MS and DL SR-2. Here's the link: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=FE6AA2D8-BE30-4F0B-B04B-35C30E4606F2&displaylang=en Mike

    How do I Import Transparent Background GIFs into Visio 2000?

    The header pretty much says it all. Seems like every GIF (odd-shapes) that I create in Photoshop or whatever graphics program looks great (no background) in other programs but when I Import a transparent gif into a Visio 2000 drawing... the white background suddenly appears. In Photoshop...

    Need Help With LinkSys WRT54G Router and HP JetDirect Print Server

    Ironwill... Got it all working. What my son did <G> was he tried the suggestion of changing the starting IP handouts and used a much lower number. That seemed to help everything along. All printers have IPs now and so does JetDirect. This was a real PITA though, and I'm going to see if I...
