    StarOffice .BIN --Newbie

    I remember in redhat you could use a menu (i think by right clicking on the file) to give it the proper permissions. Think of the .bin file like a .exe file in this case

    Default Login???

    Under users and passwords control panel click on the account(the guest account) so it is selected. While it is highlighted uncheck the "Users must enter a username and password" box. Then push Apply and there should be a dialogue asking for the password used to perform an auto-logon...

    Network Neighbourhood PROBLEMS !!!!

    P.S. Win98 will refuse to work if an actual password on each computer is not set.

    Network Neighbourhood PROBLEMS !!!!

    You might need to set up a user in win2k and XP that is the same as the user that currently resides on the Win98 machine. After inputing the passwords on each computer in the NetNbhd, Win98 should store them for that session. (You might be able to make this password process automatic if you...

    Win2K Drive Mapping VERY SLOW on startup

    I would search for a way to manually specify the location of the drive. //computer2/blah: An automatic search for drives would be the reason win2k would be acting funny. I'm not even sure if win2k does that though. However, I know drive mapping in win98 was pretty direct so I could be correct...

    Windows 2000 Professional Printing Error

    Hmm, various solutions are possibilities. Since it says you dont have rights (to stop the printing i assume) You should probably log onto a win2k Administrator level account. (the default name is Administrator in win2k w/o a password) You have tried turning the printer on and off, but this...

    Blank Compressed Harddrive

    I'd do a low level format. It may take a while, but its the simplest. Try searching www.google.com The program I ended up using on my Quantum Bigfoot was a program called Zero Disk or Zdisk. Other than that, if you want to try to hope for a shortcut to work, try running fdisk /mbr. Maybe...

    ME crash help please!!

    Eeeew. I think that occurs when the operating system cant be found. Given the nature of your problem, I would get out a startup disk, try to run it and get into safe mode, and then reboot into normal mode. If that doesnt work try running scan disk off of the boot floppy. There is some help...

    2 part question

    rpidcock: I would suggest creating a batch file and have the task schedular run it at your desired interval. The process would go like: 1. Create folder named (something insignificant) to E:2. Copy F:\ to E:\(that thing ^^^^) 3. Rename the folder to some name on an interval (I'm not sure...

    How did I get TYPE 44 Partitions

    Hmmm... I dont know off hand what a type 44 is, but with Windows you should expect to be on a type 0b partition. The only thing that I think could have caused this (I had a partitioning nightmare a few months ago) would be the fact that you used two different partition programs. Norton must...

    Parameter Incorrect error after installing XP

    Well, if I could guess at what your problem is I would say: 1) (most likely) You need to change your 2nd hard drive from a primary drive to slave. This can most likely be done by changing the dipswitch in the back. Or, if its BIOS based you would change the category of that drive to slave...
