I take my PC(s) up to the cottage usually once or twice during the summer.  I just throw the monitor on the floor of the van making sure that the glass is covered with a blanket, toss in the CPU box, make sure that both items don't fall over, and head on up the highway!  The...

I have basically the same problem with my embedded sound when I run Windows 2000 on my PC.  Like you mention, sound is all crackly and broken up.  When I reboot and go into Win95, the MP3 and Wav files sound great.  Must be something to do with the Win2K sound...

Is the Thinkpad cardbus or pcmia?&nbsp;&nbsp;I don't know too much about these things, but apparently the older notebooks are PCMIA but <b>NOT</b> Cardbus.&nbsp;&nbsp;Unfortunately, the Cardbus cards fit into the PCMIA slots just fine, thank you, but getting them to work is near...

How did you determine that your problem is the NTIO.SYS file?<br>I'm not very clear on exactly what is the original problem.&nbsp;&nbsp;Do you have a problem running a specific 16bit app or can you not run command.com or from the Start&gt;Run box?&nbsp;&nbsp;&quot;Command&quot; is the 16bit...

I had a similar problem last night with a PC.&nbsp;&nbsp;Did some changes, rebooted, <b>BANG</b>, no video and speaker just a whining and I could not even get into the bios.&nbsp;&nbsp;Ripped everything apart, had the motherboard bare on my workbench but still the same problem.&nbsp;&nbsp;I then...

I think for Netbui and file sharing, you must <b>create and share</b> at least one folder or printer on each PC before the PC will show up in Network Neighborhood.&nbsp;&nbsp;It doesn't seem to be this way with TCP/IP protocol but it does seem to happen with either Netbui or IPX protocols.<br>...

When you launch Control Panel, it looks through your system directory and finds all the CPL files.&nbsp;&nbsp;Normally these would be in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM.<br>1.&nbsp;&nbsp;So, what you can do is perform a search (Find) and look for all the *.CPL files in the C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM...
