    Can't ping DHCP although I get a valid IP

    The problem seems to be solved. When setting up the network connections I filled in the server's ip as gateway in the LAN connection. That was the reason I couldn't ping anything on the WAN side. It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenious. Murphy's Laws

    PPPoE and Request dialog box

    I seem to have a problem that might be related. In this situation there is a SBS2003 with exchange (to which a lot of users succesfully connect). On a remote location I installed 2 new PC's that connect using VPN behind a DSL-internet connection. That works perfectly until both PC's connect to...

    Thanx for all these quick replies !! It's a 3,4 GHz processor with 1 Gig of Ram (although for some reason the processor is always reported as a dual processor (as well in XP) with one not doing anything (because I physically have only one) Xp is running smoothly as well as Linux (Ubuntu)...

    Vista Home cannot obtain IP Address

    Without actually knowing anything about the problem... Sounds a little like a Home version restrictions towards a domain although getting an IP-Address shouldn't be a problem at all, but there might be some policies on the server or client-side that prevents giving an IP ? Does Home support IPv6...

    lots of applications crashing

    Hi there, I hope someone can help me... I recently upgraded from XP to Vista because my computer was very slow even after a fresh install (which was eventually caused by an overheating CPU from dusty air-intakes). So now my Acer Aspire 1714 is running smoothly again at 50-55°C apart from the...

    Keyboard shortcut help

    The fact that reinstalling solves the problem, implies that there might be more solutions to this problem... My shortcuts are working fine, but I seem not to be able to change them (when I enter a shortcut in shortcut dialog box (i.e. I want to use DEL as a shortcut for clear) nothing appears.)...

    Text is masked when renaming icons

    Hi, However this thread is in the forum NT4, I have the feeling that i might have to do something with iexplorer too. Configuration: Windows NT4.0 with Internet Explorer 5.0. When a user tries to change the name of an icon (on the desktop, in an explorer window (NT4) or the old 3.51 explorer)...

    Need a well-suited sound-card for a home-studio

    It won't require a high-end machine if a hardware-piece does the work (like the new soundblaster from creative). I do not really need this high qualtiy, that's right, but i'd rather spend a little more for more quality than that i afterwards find out i could use it, while i didn't bought it. So...

    Security hole: workgroup computer can access whole domain
