Hi Ben, thanks for the info. That got it working in Firefox but now Internet Explorer says "The page cannot be displayed" but shows the link in the address bar. When I press the Go button then it plays the media. Is this an IE setting? The program uses IE so I need to get it working there...

Hello again, this forum has proven invaluable over the last few weeks. Now here's my third problem. This problem is after losing and hard drive and setting all my programs up again from scratch (see my first post) one is giving me problems. The short version is I use an html line to call an...

Doh, I got that backwards in my last post. I am connected to a router first. So does that mean my problem is before I get to the modem? The only other computer connected to the router is rarely ever on but it was having the same problem a while back which is what convinced me the switch out...

Here I thought that maybe things were getting better and while I read all of your replies bam, pop up balloons. Couldn't MS come up with a less annoying way of alerts. Oh well on with the trouble shooting. I've tried new cables, I can't move the modem to a different jack. Since the problem...

Thanks for the advice. There are a few terms used above that I don't understand such as "Satin" and "DS Margin and Loop Attenuation figures". The modem I have now doesn't have any monitoring but a couple of flashing lights. So it occurred to my that if I got a new modem from my ISP it...

First, I hope this is the correct forum for this type of post. If not please let me know and I'll move it. Question, how do I tell if my internet connection problem is with my DSL modem or my ISP? I have reasons to suspect either or both although my suspicions are more toward the ISP. ISP -...

Thanks Roger but I figured that part out already. I can change the boot file between the one that works and the one that doesn't boot all the way. Booth installs are XP home on the same drive but in different partitions. Is there a potential problem doing that? My gut feeling is that it...

Well I'm close. After running a repair on the copy of the drive it will almost boot up. It shows the Windows loading screen and then does it's flickering like it's about to start but it stops short of the welcome screen. Only a black screen and the cursor. If I boot into safe mode I get the...

Did the copy with file manager last night and it went pretty well. But I copied to the SATA drive that I already figured out I can't boot from. I'm copying to another partition on the 250gb drive now,the one I just loaded a new OS onto, and am going to try to repair it from their. I've...

Well, I guess I'm not going to give it a try. If your going to load third party drivers for Windows Setup you are going to load them from a floppy drive, no ifs ands or buts, Microsoft says "YOU ARE GOING TO LOAD THEM FROM DRIVE A". Since that machine doesn't have a floppy drive I'm kinda...

Oops. It appears I was wrong in my earlier post. The search for "Windows File Manager" only showed me replacements, not where to get it. So I guess the first question would be... will it run on XP and the second is, If so where can I get it? A sorta off the subject question here. I'm about...

I was up very late last night trying this only I didn't have a copy of file manager, I used xplorer2 because of the reviews it had and I could get it from download.com. It failed miserably. I would drag groups of folders from one pane to the other and every time it hit a snag it stopped. I...

Just copy and paste eh? It's too simple, I would have never thought of it. A quick google search showed a few places I could download File manager so I'll give it a try tomorrow. I think that if I could get the data to copy over ignoring the bad blocks then I could repair the installation, I...

I have one of those Bytech adapters that has worked great for me for over a year now that I purchased from New Egg. The user reviews on their website show a split about who they work for and who they don’t, reading the reviews may give you some insight. I suspect that as cheesy as cheaply as...

Hi Violetta, I'm not an expert so I would get a confirmation from someone else before doing this but... There is a freeware program on download.com called "copywipe". The reviews said you can use it to copy your hard drive to another one with everything still intact. Your OS and programs will...

I’m trying to save my hard drive “as is” or “as was” I should say. My “XP home” computer would almost boot up then get the B.O.D. I forget at this point what the error message was. I can put my drive into an external case and access it fully with no problems although it looks like there is one...
