I am having a problem with the Windows Genuine Advantage Notification. It is an office that I support but I am not always there. I run the installation in all the PCs which run correctly, but then I am getting calls that the Windows Genuine Advantage Notification is there again... Any ideas. The...

Not sure what you mean by a vpn peer. I am paying to a vpn company so I could use their services for a secure way to go in the internet (Had a very bad experience with my passwords harvested some how even thought I have a router and my PCs have zone alarm firewall.) The main machine I use is my...

Thank you so much cmeagan656! I was not aware that there was a specific VPN section! Not wonder I was getting no responses :) I repost it my question there. Many thanks

Hello everyone and thank you for reading my post! I have a strange situation going. I have a PC and a laptop, both of them are Windows XP Pro SP3 connecting to my network and internet using wireless. Once I setup a VPN service on the PC it worked right away, connected with no problems, I did...

Thank you cknipe for you comment! I am going with Dell. Regarding MrNick0483... I never thought that higher speed would increase stress in the servers. I have two servers in this Dental office. I thought that increasing the switch speed would stop the bottle neck and in fact, releasing stress...

You are right.... my mistake. My wiring is only 2 years old, they are CAT5e. Good point though. Any thoughts on which of the mentioned switch would be better for my configuration? Many thanks for your comments

All workstations have 1Gig NIC's.... Why would I want the workstation to be configured to work at 100?

Great, thank you so much for you reply! In researching for ever I have noticed that many so called 1GB switch's most of them are in reality only 2 ports with 1GB and the rest are 10/100... How come is that? Are the Netgear GSM7248 48 Port Gigabit L2 Managed Switch or a DELL 48-PORT GIGABIT...

Thank you for reading my post, I have a client who has a Dental office, 17 Pcs, network printers, 3 servers set up with a 3com 10/100 base I think 3300 or something like it. Switch has work great without my help, but now the office changed to digital dental x-rays, so now larger files are going...

Thank you for reading my post. I have this PC that a few months ago was randomly restarting because it was trying, and re trying to install a MS patch for the NET framework. After hours of research I found a way how to remove the partial patch installation, install the patch manually and the...

Hello everyone, Thank you for reading my post. I am working on a Dell PC with Windows XP2. It is connected to a network and it is using two printers. Every time I try to use the laserjet 1022n, the printer spool stops, so after researching I found out that repairing Windows should take care...

Hello everyone, it is me again... I have something else going on which I am not sure if it is related to my prior posting. My network consist of two Windows 2003 servers and about a dozen PCs. One server registers find in WINS and can see all PCs using the Network neighborhood window, the...

Hello everyone! Thank you for reading my post. Today I have found a hand full of PC's name repeated in WINS with the sntl added so Lawone will have a repeat entry but looking like sntl_lawone. Both entries have the same IP address.... Could anyone tell me what does are? Many thanks, Steven

Thank you guys for all your help! I was able to re-install windows and that resolved the problem! I guess that the problem was in the temp folder in the Hard Drive, before it actually goes into the BIOS chip. I guess I can count my blessings..... PC is up and running :) Thanks a...

Hello everyone and thank you for reading my post! I am working on a dell dimmention e521 with WindowsXP. I was upgrading the BIOS provided by the DELL web site file DME521-010111.exe and failed in the middle on the installation. Now I cannot start the PC at all, I get a blue screen but I can...

Thank you for your ideas. The printer has its own network card (that is the "n" part of the number) It turns out that the cable guy did some work in the closet where my patch box is located and I can only imagine that a tool or something drop on the wire for the printer... Once I re punched the...

Hello Everyone, thank you for reading my post! I have this little network, about 5 PCs, all WIndowsXP PRO, windows 2003 server and this printer with network card. Never a problem until this past couple of days, jobs go to the printer, no error, but they sit on the printer for a while, then...

Hey Wolluf! Winsockfix did the trick!!!! I am just curious, I know there was a problem with Winsock because Windows firewall would not load (error 10047) so in the past I used the command line "netsh winsock reset" reboot and I would be like new. In this case, Windows firewall was able...

Hello Everyone and Happy New Year! I am working on this Sony laptop Windows XP Pro SP2. According to the event viewer there were a couple of mild viruses that Symantec was able to delete and there was also a case of some malware, which after it was removed the LSP configuration was not set...
