The system program Scanregw.exe does this backup function, as well a checking the registry for errors. Click Start > Run and type "scanregw" then click OK. The program will check your registry and offer to do another backup of your registry (in a normally configured system, it does one the...

Thanks. Finally fixed it last night. The problem was McAfee Guardian Firewall on the XP machine blocking the network. The McAfee settings on the XP machine changed to not allow that machine to access network shares and not allow access to its shares. These are buried within the...

Thanks for your reply. I added IPX/SPX only as a possible workaround for the problem in case the issue was TCP/IP related . You're right, its not needed. As to cables, NIC and router, the problem machine connects flawlessly to the internet and can properly ping the XP machine. I would think...

I'm out of ideas on this so I'd appreciate any suggestions. Client's has simple LAN with one XP Home system and one Win 98 SE system. These used to communicate properly with the accounting files on the XP system and its drive mapped on the Win98 system. All of a sudden, the Win98 system...

Thank you! I dug into Spybot (I'm an Ad-Aware user myself) and by renaming the C:\Windows\Hosts file to Hosts.xxx, the problem was corrected for those sites mentioned. One possibly related issue was not corrected. Accessing the Windows ME System Info still gives a "Page cannot be...

Win ME system suddenly cannot connect to some sites/pages with either IE 5.5 SP2 or Netscape 7.1. All other computers on the same office LAN can access these problem locations, so its not the locations or a router/ISP problem. For example, this machine cannot connect to www.tigerdirect.com...

Formerly working Outlook 2000 will no longer access mail services. Will not get mail and attempts to send messages result in the following internal reply: -------------------------------------------------------- Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients...

Thanks for the suggestion. One issue is that I don't know when it last worked correctly. This only came up because I wanted to check something with System Info, which did not work. So I went to Help to see why SysInfo wouldn't work and that didn't work either. Could have been that way...

When I try to run either Help (from the Start mneu) or System Information (either from Programs or directly by running msinfo32.exe), I get this page display for Help and Support: "The page cannot be displayed The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be...

Does anyone know if this is possible and how to do it? My guess is that there is a registry key for this, but I have no idea what it might be. My problem is a system installed on a boat and one of the devices connected via a serial port is sending a data stream that is mistakenly being...

I am unable to set the Marker properties on an MSChart control. The following code section runs without error, but .Size remains as 240 and the .Style remains as vbMarkerStylePlus '------ With MSChart.Plot.SeriesCollection(1) .SeriesMarker.Show = True .ShowLine = True .Pen.Width = 1...

I am unable to save the contents of a RTB back to the same file name used to read in the data. Generates a run-time error #75 - "Specified path/filename cannot be accessed or is invalid" If the name is changed in the ShowSave dialog, then it saves properly, including saving to...

I do not seem to be able to create a viable XY chart with the MSChart control in VB6, latest Service Pack. Either I get a blank display or, depending on how I try to load the data in the DataGrid, just the chart grids. No errors, but no data displayed, either. I'm a bit confused on how the...

Dave, I think I've got it going, at least locally between the two systems. I was going over the PPPLOG.TXT file and noticed that it wasn't starting IPX protocol from the client machine, even though that was selected in DUN>Servers. I uninstalled, then reinstalled IPX/SPX on the Win98 client...

Dave, Thanks for the effort. I appreciate the time you're taking. Deployment isn't for another week, so there is no problem - yet. <g>

Thanks, Dave. Both were set the same, but for troubleshooting, I've taken your suggestion and am using PAP. IPX/SPX is now selected under network options for the VPN in RAS, but under bindings it does not appear to be bound to a WAN wrapper, as Net BEIU is. I've uninstalled and reinstalled...

Trying to set up VPN using PPTP on NT Server 4.0, SP6a for remote access by users on broadband connections, but all attempts result in Error 720 - unable to negotiate compatible protocol. The test setup is an NT 4.0 Server connected directly (by crossover cable) to a Win 98 SE system, so...

Thanks for the suggestion, but this is a commercial product and I can't have unknown users trying to do manual installations. With no pattern, I can't know what to try to do manually. Most of the time the standard distribution package which was created by the deployment wizard works fine...

An application being distributed on several floppy disks occasionally has a problem where the setup program reports that it can't find the ST6UNST.EXE (Microsoft uninstall) file packaged in the last .cab From one use report, it seems that setup reports this error after reading the first disk...

Tried using UNC32 and on both machines it reported that the uninstall failed, after deleting most of the items, leaving me with no client and unable to run on just IPX/SPX. On reboots the system reported VREDIR errors. Had to completely uninstall everything related to the network, including...
