    Dual LAN - what is it. Are they interchangeable.

    So its Local Networking that is independent of the rest then. I wouldn't need a telephone line,modem,ISP etc. Admittedly a limited facility

    Dual LAN - what is it. Are they interchangeable.

    Am I right in thinking that Networking is a separate entity from Internet Connection and Internet Connection Sharing? It seems that the Network side is OK. Files (and Printers?) are accessible across both PC. It is the line from the Host pc through the ISP to the outside world (the internet)...

    Dual LAN - what is it. Are they interchangeable.

    Thanks everyone. This mobo has 2 LAN ports. One says NVidia and the other 3Com. Any special reason for this or are they just spreading the business around. And why are there 2 ports? Is there a need? Under what circumstances would both be used? Does AOL have a solution or are they uninterested?

    Dual LAN - what is it. Are they interchangeable.

    Yes,it is a crossover cable. Files transfer from the Host to No 2 PC and vice versa. The host dials out OK but No 2 PC says Network Cable Unplugged. There are 2 RJ-45 LAN sockets on the A7N8X de luxe motherboard. Does it matter which is used? Do not understand the second question. As far as I...

    XP boots to splash screen then recycles

    Thanks. I went through most of the previous recommendations. fixmbr didn't like it much. Said the existing mbr was non-standard or similar. Also did fixboot. Nothing allowed windows to load past the flash of blue of the Welcome screen. Reluctantly repair installed. Seems more or less OK but...

    XP boots to splash screen then recycles

    More. Had to activate with MS after install of mobo. Is Mup.sys part of their checks to assess the number of changes to components? How do I get past it into safe mode?

    XP boots to splash screen then recycles

    Thanks. All the F8 Safe Mode options scroll down and stop at Mup.sys. Should have mentioned that before. Tried deleting Mup.sys as stated in one of the google searches but delete is denied. Have run chkdsk but found nothing. Will work through your suggestions. Thanks. I have a spare Hard Drive...
