    Some general VPN questions...

    Ok we're keen to set-up a VPN so that staff can access our network from outside the office. We've currently got PC Anywhere running on a server in the office which does allow incoming remote connections however it is very slow - even over a 500k home broadband connection. In the office we have...

    Changes Made In "Enable VGA Mode" go after restart

    i've managed to recreate the error on my dimension and the actual error is monitor generated (i.e. not a windows error). on my dell flat panel monitor (the same as theirs) i can enter a menu and reset to factory defaults while the error is on screen. on theirs they cannot get the menu to come...

    "Cannot Display Video Mode" - anyone seen this error before??
