    CD-RW Hangs in XP Pro

    BadBigBen - Well, I deal with these kind of things all the time. I'm still learning though. I've rarely seen an IDE cable go bad, but it does happen. If it copies at all it rules out other things. Time is essential in my job for the customer's sake. I go by most likely solutions and process...

    CD-RW Hangs in XP Pro

    I've had problems like this before. It's either a bad CD, (try a new formatted CD-RW) -OR- The CD-RW lens has some dust on it (try blowing it out with the tray open using a air duster) -OR- The CD-RW drive is defective. (Replace) If it has worked once and you haven't changed any settings...

    New XP on a New HDD not willing to install

    Calinus, I'm glad you got it working. I've been through these scenarios enough times to say process of elimation works the best. It helps when you have the experience to know what is the most/least likely. I've been stuck at 39 minutes 4 times out of over 1000 XP installs on PC's I've built...

    Shutting off website hit logging - eating disk space?

    Run %SystemRoot%\System32\Inetsrv\iis.msc Pause created webs, then go to the properties of each web. Under the "Web Site" tab you can uncheck "Enable Logging". You can also move the logs from %WinDir%\System32\LogFiles to another drive, and change log properties.

    New XP on a New HDD not willing to install

    The fault lies within your hardware not Microsoft. At 39 minutes XP is detecting what you have. Copying the i386 to the HDD or any other workaround only delays the inevitable problem that you will have with this PC. The problem is mostly likely with either with a faulty integrated Promise...

    CPU cooling housing that pulls air from the outside of case

    I've personally built 1000's of PC's, and all the cases I use now have side air ducts for the CPU with internal 2 x 3in BB fans. 1 in PS and 1 in the rear of the chassis. I use the Inwin IW-S564 and IW-S506G the most. The fans are very quiet and if your using either case with a retail boxed...
