    USB External Hard Drive

    I have a Nexstar 2 external enclosure with a 9Gb Seagate drive hooked up to my USB port and can't seem to get a drive letter. It is USB 2.0 and I am running Windows XP Pro with a Xeon 2.66GHz and 2Gb Ram. The drive is partitioned and formatted - it sees the drive but won't initalize it in Disk...

    98SE Install Problem

    I agree totally. It was a leased machine that one of the big companys turned in (I am guessing). I picked it up for $200 - I thought it was a great deal because it had an Adaptec scsi card in it and that alone is worth the cost. Not sure why it is reacting that way. Take Care

    98SE Install Problem

    Found out a solution to my problem but am still baffled by it. It turns out that all I had to do was provide an internet connection to the computer when booting. I learned a lot about scsi drives and termination. I had everything right - all I needed was the connection. I had loaded win98se onto...

    98SE Install Problem

    Thanks for replying mattjurado The first time up it let me type in a password then froze. Mouse would not react to anything. Subsequent attempts produced the same result. I have tried hitting esc, just return and even putting the password from before the load. Very puzzling.

    Resource Hog

    Thanks for the reply Tony I have looked at the things you mentioned. 74% free and no conflicts present. Only running Microsoft office under startup. That is what is so confusing to me. Never experienced this on any machine before.

    Resource Hog

    I have an AMD 1.7G machine with 224MB of ram, running 98SE. It seems that it has a tough time multitasking - if I am downloading a large file it intermittently pauses me from doing anything else. If I play MP3s while doing nothing else it pauses the song momentarily. When booting system it even...

    Windows Explorer Acting Funny

    Hey Kento Thanks for the advice. Your right SFC didn't resolve the issue. Can you be a little more specific when you say "Then find that reg file and doubleclick on it and merge it." Not really sure how to do this. This is my first crack at editing the registry. Thanks and...
