Thanx for reading, but I've managed to cure it via TweakUI. Kind regards COB

Once again Hello to all Today's question is: How do I set up my PC so that I am the default logon rather than Administrator. My PC boots up to Administrator settings (also me by the way)and I have to logoff and then logon in my name to get my usual settings. This has only just started to...

Sorry the page seems to have time expired and you have to return to the home page and search again. Here are the details: BELKIN OFFICE KT Product Code - 857016 Includes: 4x Ethernet 10/100 PCI Cards 8 port professional network switch 4x 8metre Fast Cat5 patch cables Share files and...

Thanx Sunil The modem is supplied by my ISP and is connected to the internet via coax cable. The interface between modem and PC is either USB or NIC. There are 8 ports on the network switch, all similar without any words about uplinks, and the pictorial instructions (a few words also)...

In an earlier thread, I was enquiring about creating a wired network between two PC's approx 3 metres apart. One is on XP Prof, the other on W2K. I bought this bit of kit...

Thanks for all of your comments, some good stuff and all of it learned in the practical manner. I have decided to use a router and an office kit with 4 NIC cards, 4 x 8 metre cables and an 8 port broadband router, for the princely sum of £40 - should do the trick. I have taken onboard your...

Me again with another question/s. I have moved into the world of broadband internet and now find the task of sharing this type of connection with my son tedious, so against my better judgement, and in the hope of actually using what I pay for (as opposed to my son hogging the connection 24/7)...

Hello Everyone Suddenly, and for no apparent reason, my keyboard is now working correctly. I've taken a look around hoping to find a change somewhere but can't find one. Is there a history/diagnostic file somewhere? Kind regards COB

Well Willy, you were right about the typematic rate settings being disabled. Sadly even with them enabled, I can not get my keyboard to repeat a letter with a single press of a key. I'll have to do some research but in the meantime and for my friend Carr, who didn't get a cigar, have a star...

Again, my friend, no cigar. I have already explored the keyboard setting in control panel and my registry reflects the fastest settings, but nothing happens when I keep any key depressed. I believe that there may be a different system file perhaps for my standard keyboard that used to work...

Nice try, but not the one I am looking for. If I play around with the Accessibility options, I can get the keyboard to repeat at a slow rate, but not like it was/should be. Any other ideas Carr/anyone? Kind regards COB

Up until the last reinstall of Win2K, my keybopard operated quite normally, but now the letter repeat function has become "disabled" and I have to keep pressing the key to repeat a letter or space or delete etc The control panel is quite normal and has the function "enabled" with the repeat...

Thanks guys. I couldn't access the BOOT.INI file even after showing all system and hidden files, so in system start and restore, I just unchecked the box with the list of OS available and now it boots normally. Kind regards COB

I recently had to reinstall Windoze due to a file corruption that just refused to be repaired. The new OS is working fine and the old corrupted version, deleted from the HDD. The only downside is that when booting, I get a choice of two OS's, both identical, but only one working. How can I...

Download and run CWS shredder. Kind regards COB

Thanx wolluf, I may now do a clean install, but MOBO is at limit CPU wise, I can upgrade RAM but probably won't bother. I have elected to use NTFS, which I thought was meant to be quicker than FAT32. All eye candy is turned off and TWEAKUI has virtually nothing ticked or checked. I can...

The deed wsas done on 25 March and initially I was disappointed with the overlay upgrade, however, it does appear to have improved since. The only thing I'm not happy about is the lack of speed - will it improve if I upgrdae again to XP ? I am on NTFS. Kind regards COB

Hi Wolluf Thanx for your reply. Health is still a problem, question mark over either hydrops or menieres disease at present, and thanx for asking. I was thinking of an upgrade without wiping, but if it isn't as good as it should be, I will wipe and start over. Lemon13, just the info I was...

Hi Carr Yes tried that, couldn't find anything of any use there at all. There must be people who have upgraded and come across this problem. Kind regards COB

I am about to upgrade a home PC from Win98 to Win2000. It's an old machine with an Award ver 1.2a BIOS on a P5ss-me motherboard. During install of new OS, I get taken to the Microsoft site for upgrades, but I am unable to find an upgrade to this BIOS for the ACPI, that I am told is necessary...
