First, make sure you are using Winamp 5. If so, see: http://forums.winamp.com/showthread.php?threadid=162363 Apparently this version of Winamp was not designed to be 'Multiple User' friendly, and expects to be able to read/write to it's program files, regardless of which user starts it. As a...

Pros and cons, with that idea. You are likely to get a good deal if you go down the 'barebones' road, however be sure to shop around - a lot of sellers keep the cost down by using cheaper boards, cases and PSU's. You may find that although you get a highly specced system on paper, the quality...

You have 2 main considerations; A new processor family (ie. Pentium3 to Pentium4) will require you to purchase a new system board and a new processor at the very least. Assuming your current system uses an ATX spec case you shouldn't need a new case at least.. Pentium 4's consume more power...

Yes it is. I believe that AD has nothing to do with your current problem! (correct me if I'm wrong folks) In any case, right click on 'My Network Places' and select 'Map Network Drive' In this dialogue, as the drive to mount, type \\computername\c$ The click the button to use alternate...

Installing the protocol is neccessary (which you have done) to talk to an Appletalk network, but in order to function as a server you also need to install the following: File and Print Client Service for Macintosh. If you go through to the properties page for the network adapter in question...

you should find all the services listed in this registry key; HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Services Find the rogue and delete it. PS. You do this at your own risk.... but you know that already! Hope this helps Terry-Lee Blay MCP, A+, Net+, Server+, APS, IBM Thinkpads/Portables

Right click on 'My Computer' and select properties. Then select the hardware tab, and click 'Device Manager' Click the + next to Universal Serial Bus Controllers to open the list of available Host Controllers. Double click the Host Controller to bring up a Properties Window. Click the...

Interesting problem. Usually System Restore will do the trick with iffy registry changes, and some damaged system files, I believe, but if this is definately unusable now, you have a couple more options I think... If you have your XP Install CD, you can boot from it and try a repair...

When logging in is the network port on the machine showing a lot of traffic? IE is there a lot of data being passed or is the login just timing out? Does this issue continue when the user is logging in on a different machine? One good reason for inordinately long logons can be if the user is...

Indeed, I googled dsentry.exe out and it appears to be Dell supplied anti-spyware software. This fits with all the facts, indeed it might be installed as part of a dell driver update. I have supplied the link below so you can see for yourself...

If the computer is on a domain, I'd try wolluf's suggestions first, definately. :) Terry-Lee Blay MCP, A+, Net+, Server+, APS, IBM Thinkpads/Portables webwarrior@angelfire.com

Very odd indeed actually, not part of a usual windows system, I might hasten to add. This lot strikes me as some sort of 'security lockdown' script. It appears to be deleting all default administrative shares - although these are recreated at each startup - and stopping all non-essential...

Possibly not. Modems tend to use the Serial port, even if the modem is internal. Ensure that you have no other applications (such as Palm Desktop) using the serial port, and try again - modems are still legacy devices and they suffer legacy problems such as the above. If this fails, start your...

Smoothwall is basically an OS in it's own right (FreeBSD based to be precise) and it WILL erase the whole drive. Provided all the hardware in the machine is supported by the Smoothwall OS (the vast majority of standard PC hardware is) it will install itself and then guide you through the...

Having done a google search on your model of router, I find that it has a PPTP (VPN) pass-through ability. What this means is that if you set up a VPN server (eg Win2000 Server)and connect it to your D-Link router, you can access the VPN server remotely using a Win2000/XP client. Obviously if...

Best bet (and I've done this time and time again) is to configure your PC to boot from CD-ROM and then boot directly from the XP install disc. This will bypass your current installation completely, and although setup still technically copies files to your drive, it will not prevent you from...

That link above gives all the details on how to back up EFS recovery keys, etc, so if you have a look at that I'm sure you'll feel a whole lot more confident about using EFS in the future. Sorry I couldn't help more. Best Regards Terry-Lee Blay MCP, A+, Net+, Server+, APS, IBM...
