When i boot, immediately following the Aspire splash screen, which is the first thign displayed when you turn it on.

Does this only happen when you open Word, or does it happen with any other MSOffice app? If it's only Word, it could be a virus that enables macros. RMG.

I have an Acer Aspire PC with a Celeron 400 Mhz processor with 64 MB RAM, Win98, and a HP CD-Writer 9300. About a month ago it started giving me an "Incorrect setting on Serial 1 IRQ" message on boot up. I access CMOS and go to the Hardware option which by the way only has two...

Is the PC a clone or does it have a brand name (ie. Packard Bell, Dell, Compaq, IBM, etc.)? RMG.

Nope. It happens when i try to print anything from outlook. It just happens that in this case i tried to print a calendar, but it also happens on the rest of the apps.

When i try to print my calendar in Outlook 97 on a HP 6L laserjet i get the usual print dialog window and when i click OK i get an "illegal operation" message that states: error in module "xxx" in file HPBPCLA.DRV.... and it doesn't print. I replaced the file with a newer...

Yep...

When I want to close a document in Word 97 it takes about 30 seconds before closing it, and it's only a single legal size page, so it isn't much info to process anyway. I want to know what could be causing this. The PC is running perfectly, this is the only setback. It's a Pentium 233 with 16 MB...

OK, I connected another PC to the cable, set the correct TCP/IP addresses and the rest of the settings and... voilá!<br>It turned out to be the **** PC, because the one I replaced it with is a much older processor (PII 200), has less RAM, and it worked fine! So i'm just gonna format, reinstall...

The problem is that we function as separate departments, we do all the hardware and software development, including setting up pc's, lan's&nbsp;&nbsp;and so on, and the other guys do everything related to internet access including, cabling, addressing, hubs, routers, gateways, all that stuff; so...

I'd like to know the code that can display me a message box telling me the name of the column i just clicked on a dbgrid. For instance, on a dbgrid with 3 columns &quot;First Name&quot;, &quot;Initial&quot;, &quot;Last Name&quot;, if i click on the title for &quot;Initial&quot; i'd like a...

I know this isn't computer related, but I need to let off steam in public...<br>Can you blame anyone for asking for help on something as easy as configurating a NIC? I know how, to but I need to have all bases covered. For all you pessimistic people out there (AND YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!): There's...

I have a LAN set up in one of my company's areas (about 20 stations and a server); it has no outside access whatsoever, but recently the head of that particular department requested internet access, so some other guys came in, set up a cable running about 50 feet to an outside hub with internet...

This happens when you install and then uninstall a program manually. You remove the directory but the shortcuts and other pointers still remain in the system startup files. <br>Check your startup files to find out where the problem is: If it's in autoexec.bat or config.sys just REM the line, if...

You could have the &quot;Test and Copy&quot; option checked instead of the &quot;Copy&quot; option, causing the burner to make a &quot;test&quot; copy, then do the real copying, thus taking the double amount of time it usually did.

Have you checked your PC's power supply? try installing another one (it's quite tedious but, worth a try). If that doesn't work, than it most probably will be the motherboard or the CPU in which cases you should return the PC for warranty.

They way I connect to a LAN is via TCP/IP, i remove the NetBeui and IPX protocols and configure the TCP. My configuration is as follows:<br>IP address: 200.1.1.1 (for the other PC it will be 200.1.1.2)<br>Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0<br>Gateway: 200.1.1.1 (same on both)<br>DNS: 200.1.1.1 (same on...

That may be the problem Cmmrfrds, i'm running on a Win98 OS Pentium III with 128 Ram, and am coding in Delphi 5; when i'm writing code, most of the time i have other apps running on the background, like MP3 player, Excel, Explorer and of course Deplhi, and when I try to open Access 97 this...

The only problem using STP Cat5 is the interference or noise that could affect your communications. I'd suggest UTP Cat5 thru PVC tubing like MasterRacker said.

Thanks Al, that's what I thought of too. I failed to mention that the long cable runs alongside a coax cable used for the DirecTv system... I don't know if that's the cause for the problem.
