Thanks Kyle555. That worked for me. I can now make backups and copy and store them offline using WinSCP.

Thanks for the posts everyone. Sorry for the delay in updating. I know the ftp server is OK as I can log into it and upload/download files from my PC. The SCP backup to 127.0.0.1 worked but I don't know how to retrieve it or perform the shell/Cli commands suggested as I don't know how to access...

Thank you for your post. The router firewall is disabled. I have tried several different laptops connected to the wireless LAN. Some Windows, some Linux. Local firewalls are disabled and they have different security software.

Hi We have a wired LAN in the office. Attached to this is a Netgear WN824 router. Laptops connected wirelessly can remote control PCs on the wired LAN but PCs on the wired LAN cannot remote control (or even ping) laptops connected wirelessly. Thanks

Thanks for the posts. Nothing obvious in msconfig. I don't think this is a virus as I have only just built the PC and I have never had a chance to browse the web. I can't ping the router once the internet does not work so I don't think this is a browser settings issue. Powersave mode is...

My desktop PC connects to the web via the wireless router at startup but after about 3 minutes I find I cannot browse the web. I have had several laptops connected over the last few months to this router and my Blackberry, my sons DS etc. None of these exhibited this problem. Is something...

Thanks for the posts guys. I tried to install SP1 in the hope that the updates causing the problem were included in that. (Log showed several different updates failing.) SP1 also failed to install and I had the same reverting changes message. I then found...

I have been passed a HP Windows Vista laptop by a friend. Everytime it starts it takes an age to install updates. Then it restarts and displays "Updates were not configured correctly, reverting changes" I have:- Done a system restore back to the oldest point I can find. Renamed the software...

My domain account is added to the local Administrator's group but to make sure I logged on with the local administrator account. - No change. I tried removing the nic from Device Manager and rebooting but again - No change. I think I may have found a partial answer. I noticed my Network...

I have a problem with my laptop running XP Pro SP3. I need to set a static ip address for the wired nic. I can set the address but when I click on OK it does not hold it. Going back into the ip dialogue, I see that addressing has switched itself back to automatic !

Thank you both for these interesting posts. I was using RDP. I have now disabled it and will walk to the PC from now on. I was not using fast user switching but I was wondering whether the machine was using more and more memory until it crashed. I am now monitoring memory usage using perfmon and...

I have a new Lenovo M58P. I used the product restore disks that came with it to load XP Pro. Every so often (maybe a few hours or a few days), I cannot logon to the PC. I get the following error: "Error connecting to an existing session for Administrator (Id0). A device attached to the system is...

Its working now ! I changed the default gateway on the 2nd nic to match that of the 1st and then (after examining the results of route print) deleted the 0.0.0.0 destination and added a 0.0.0.0 destination for the correct gateway and interface. Thanks Paul

I have set up a Windows XP Pro PC with 2 nics as a VPN server. Nic 1 connects to the internet. Nic 2 connects to other PCS on a mini LAN. I can connect to the VPN OK but only if the 2nd nic is disabled. As soon as I enable it, the connection to the web and the VPN therefore is lost. Nic 1 gets...

Well, the next day it wouldn't even boot the default. Although it did get further. I had to reinstall XP on that partition. Thanks Paulreg

Have you tried http://support.microsoft.com/kb/873148/en-us

I have a strange problem. I have a 2 x XP dual boot configuration. Both installs will boot OK if I select either of them at startup. If I let the time elapse and allow the default to start, windows gets as far as the message windows is starting and then freezes. My default line in boot.ini...

OK. Fixed it. The other laptop had more that 512MB RAM ! Reduced RAM. Installed 98 Setup work around Increased RAM

I installed Win XP on my laptop then I used Partition Magic, created a new partition and installed Win98. I used Bootmagic and was able to boot into either Windows OK. I then put the disk into another identical machine and Windows 98 constantly rebooted over and over again.(Win XP worked OK) I...
