    Media Player keeps popping up - XP

    This might not be helpful, but I'd start by installing adaware and/or spybot (download.com) and doing a full scan of your system.

    Changing the Keyboard Layout..

    I may be off base here, but you might want to check the Regional and Language options in Control Panel. On the languages tab you have the text services and input options, make sure that in "details" you're set to Keyboard US. If you have more than one language set, if you mistakenly...

    UNC requests slow

    Well, I don't know if dns is the specific problem, but the issue sure is name resolution. I've opted for using UNC paths with the IP address instead of the computer name, and that takes care of the problem. Neither a hosts, nor a lmhosts file seems to make a difference (8 to 10 seconds to...

    UNC requests slow

    A very good suggestion (that I should have thought of)! I'll give it a try.

    UNC requests slow

    Hello, I was wondering if anyone has any insight into this: I'm dealing with client-server application on a mixt environment network (MS/Novell). The issue I'm having, is that the UNC path requests are being fulfilled much slower than the mapping requests. Because the application is supposed to...

    XP GPO Puzzle

    I thought I plop this down here and see what the community can make of it. I'm running an XP pro box that connects to a multi-homed win2k adv. Server (native mode). Every time I boot up, the event log (application) shows the following: Windows cannot access the file gpt.ini for GPO...

    Missing DLL when Win98 boots

    Go with Paulwood's suggestion... I was thinking there was somme symantec app you deinstalled improperly (a lot of their files start with "nn"). But Norton antivirus wouldn't give you that error, I'm pretty sure.

    Nortel Extranet (VPN) over LAN to DSL router to Corp WAN

    Err... I thought extranet used a form of PPTP. To quote : "The Extranet Access Client uses the IPsec protocol with the ISAKMP/Oakley Key Exchange protocol to authenticate and secure an end-to-end connection into a remote network. The only thing he should have on the client side, is...

    Voice chat through a shared connection in Win2000 advanced server

    Same setup as Faheemi, same problem. I've also been driving myself up the wall trying to find a solution. We need to either offer a bounty for a solution, or put a hit on ol' Bill :)

    Win2000 and Proxy 2

    There is an upgrade problem on the microsoft website you have to download and install in order for proxy 2 to work on win2k. Have you done that?

    cd burning error message

    you need to start a new session... Whenever you burn files to a cd, it's called a session. When you are done, Nero asks if you want to save the session. If you say yes, then try to continue that session, you will get that message. Or possibly, you tried burning 2 cd's, one after the other...

    Missing DLL when Win98 boots

    do you have, or have you had any Norton (symantec) software?

    Nortel Extranet (VPN) over LAN to DSL router to Corp WAN

    Yes! Definitly add your corporate dns info to you tcp/ip settings (normally, the vpn software should take care of that, but that really depends on how complexe your corprate lan/wan is). As for the domain/workgroup, go into the properties of your network neighborhood, and on the identification...

    DUN and Apps

    Got a tough one here.... I support an application that uses dial up networking. We have a multi-user version of the application. Here's what happens: when the application is configured to use netbios on the internal network, and one of the workstations connects to a ras server (process to...

    Nortel Extranet (VPN) over LAN to DSL router to Corp WAN

    ok, here is how I set up mine: extranet client 2.62.33 I named my home domain the same as our corporate domain and I use the same account name (that way I don't have to enter a domain logon). My dns info is a mix of local and corporate (name server addresses and domain suffixes). My internal...

    ATX computer power failure

    Just in case you overlooked this detail... Is your power supply powerful enough for your cpu/mb combo? Some cases come with 250 and ever 233 watts power supplies. You might need at least 300 if not more. Just a thought
