    Windows XP Pro x64 drivers

    Actually, I have found a site callled PlanetAMD64. I have found drivers, but 64-bit apps are still sparse. The native stuff like the 64-bit IE6 is noticeably faster, so I'm presuming that other 64-bit apps would outperform their 32-bit counterparts. Even the 32-bit apps run faster in the...

    Windows XP Pro x64 drivers

    I'm surprised that my search for x64 found no hits. Is this not the correct forum for Windows XP Pro x64? I have recently installed it. I was having cd/dvd sub-system problems with 32-bit XP Pro SP2 using my giga-byte motherboard and decided to go 64-bit. I have all of my hardware working...

    I'm afraid to update my Geforce driver

    Forceware is an all-inclusive and should install the correct driver for your card. I would recommend downloading and reading the release notes. The video for my FX 5600 was not good (I just updated my driver also), but there was a fix in the release notes. Enkrypted is right. It is very easy...

    XP & Citrix

    With ME you either need to use a terminal services license or do a registry hack.

    XP & Citrix

    One common problem is that you need to enter the server's IP address for both the server name and the actual address on the properties/connecion page. You might want to also check the connection type, e.g., is it TCP/IP or TCP/IP + HTTP? And finally I've had the best result using the ICA client...

    what java version if any in SP2

    It would be a good idea to check to see how many versions of Sun Java are installed on your machine (if any). Apparently Sun Java does not remove old versions on update. I was having some Java problems and when I looked there were 6 different versions installed. I removed them all and then...

    PC slowdown when burning CD's

    Nope. Shouldn't affect it at all. I hope you solve your problem, I'm out of ideas. These things can be maddening.

    PC slowdown when burning CD's

    Have you installed InCD? It's the packet-writing software from Nero that allows you to format DVD-RW (Nero 6) or CD-RW disks for drag and drop writing capability.

    my computer missing from XP pro, can't add it

    One caveat to my previous response. If you delete the shortcut you've created, you'll lose the link. However you can "hide" it in an unused desktop directory.

    my computer missing from XP pro, can't add it

    Right-click on the My Computer Icon on the desktop and choose create shortcut. Then simply drag it to the start button.

    XP logon settings

    Or you could use Tweakui and set it to autologin. That way you can easily re-set it to prompt when you boot.

    PC slowdown when burning CD's

    One other thing to check, especially with Nero, is to see if the image mastering api service is running (windows native). Right click on my computer choose "manage" from the drop-down list. Click on "services and applications" and then "services" under that menu. Look for IMAPI CD Burning COM...

    PC slowdown when burning CD's

    Another thing to check is that your driver setting is "use dma if available" and not pio. Go to device manager - ide/atapi controllers right click on primary or secondary controller select properties and then the advanced tab.

    Sound card does not play windows startup/shutdown

    linney, Thanks. The Tweakui fix (check beep on errors in the General tab) from thread 779-924262 was the one I needed. I must have gotten click-happy in Tweakui. At any rate, I am back in business now. My first thought was the finicky Audigy 2 Platinum card. A great sound card...

    Sound card does not play windows startup/shutdown

    I have just completed a fresh install of my Winxp pro. Everything installed well, but I have one lingering problem - my Creative Audigy 2 Platinum (very finicky by the way) does not play my windows shutdown or startup sounds on startup or shutdown. If I go into the sound section of control...

    Office XP Autocomplete list editing

    I know this is a little off subject but, does anyone know how to edit the autocomplete list that pops up when entering a 'to:' email address in outlook 2002? I have many that pop up when I enter "seko ..." and would like to delete the outdated ones.

    Winows Update Page

    bcaster, this occurs as soon as I click on the install now button. This is what it says: Windows Update has encountered an error and cannot display the requested page. Select from any of the following pages for information about Windows Update services, or send us your feedback. Windows...
