    Ah, here we go. Microsoft got rid

    rclarke250, the monitor worked fine on her old tower (windows xp), and with the new tower when it was running windows 7. At this point I'm going to assume it's not the monitor per se, but a driver or system setting. Possibly a BIOS setting. BionicJohn, yeah I saw that thread too. I'm...

    Ah, here we go. Microsoft got rid

    Ah, here we go. Microsoft got rid of the blue screen of death and replaced it with the black screen of death. They're both a pain in the butt, but the blue screen was prettier. Okay, so here's the problem. My ex-wife just bought a refurbished HP/Compaq desktop with Windows 7 installed. I...

    Can't access internet even though ping shows connectivity

    What's the message you get when trying to view a web page? The infamous 'page cannot be displayed" or a blank page. Either way, the problem is either with ie or the computer itself. First try cleaning up the clutter in ie. Choose tools > general tab. Under temporary internet files click on...

    Add client to DSL router

    Depends on the modem. A better (and cheaper) way to go about this would be to hook a router up to the modem, or buy and connect a gateway (router/modem). Netgear, Linksys, etc. all have them and they range from about $50 to $120. Linksys has a really nice little one (can't recall the model)...

    WinPoet and PPPOE - Airspan Modem

    S0121 I don't know what your ISP is doing, but Winpoet is only needed when running Win '98 or Me. Windows 2000 and XP should NOT be runnining this software. You can build a dialer using network connections in XP. If you have a "smart" router (99% are) you set your username and password in...

    hyperlink colors

    Set your white links up as a class in your style sheet, like this: .whitelinks { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: yellow; text-decoration: none } The key here is to set your text decoration as none, or underlined if you want, this will override the default link settings. You...

    client side calculating a form

    This does what you want. I commented the changes, you can leave them in or take them out. It works either way. Assign id's that you want, just remember to change them in the if/else statement. <html> <head> <title></title> <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> <!-- function...

    What makes the IP change for a cable modem?

    Two things occur to change the ip address in this situation. First, Comcast cable is a DHCP connection. It "authenticates" the user through a machine's physical address instead of using a username and password like a PPPoE connection (dsl is usually this type) Second, the modem you have is a...

    Netgear DG814 Speed &amp; Connectivity issues

    samualmorris Before you buy another gateway, make sure you don't have any issues with your NIC. Ping your localhost next time the slowdown happens (127.0.0.1), as long as you get 4 packets sent and recieved it is your router. As far as a good gateway goes, I've found that Linksys seems to...

    Netgear DG814 Speed &amp; Connectivity issues

    Two observation and one quick questiion. First, if you have your resource percentages right (45% RAM, 20% virtual) you either have your virtual memory set up wrong (right click "My Computer, choose properties, choose performance, select "Virtual Memory", select "Let Windows manage my Virtual...

    Netgear DG814 Speed &amp; Connectivity issues

    You say your getting 404 pages? When you say this, do you mean your getting a page that actually says "404, file cannot be found blah blah", or, are you getting the infamous "page cannot be displayed", or better yet, a blank page? The reason I'm asking is that a 404 page is sent by a server...

    Really weird ADSL connection issue

    ABOzIT, you say the modem won't connect, but you connected fine using XP connection in bridge mode? Sounds to me like your username/password got corrupted in the modem. Try reentering them in the modem and see if you connect. This is especially true if you reset modem, as most modems wipe out...

    Browser &quot;hangs&quot;, but can succussfully ping URLs

    Like KiscoKid implies, it sounds like a browser problem. I'd try the following 1. Try a different browser like KiscoKid suggests 2. Try running IE repair tool. It's available for Win '98 and 2000 but I'm not sure if it's available for XP. The path is Start->Programs->Accessories->System...

    DSL disconnects and can't reconnect right away

    There's the problem. You need both computers connected to the router, and the router connected to the modem. Let me guess, the computer connected to the modem is using a usb connection, and the one connected to the router is using ethernet connection? If the older computer doesn't have...

    No Filter on Data Line

    Right you are plshlpme! If you have a filter on the modem line you most of the time you wouldn't get sync. The best you could hope for is intermittant sync. The whole point of a filter is to "filter" out the digital signal from phones, faxes, etc. If you ever hear a dsl modem over an...

    Multiple ADSL

    Jimbopalmer's suggestion is a good one. You can't run 2 ADSL connections over 1 phone line, you'd need 2 phone lines, each provisioned for ADSL. The added expense would make this cost prohibitive.

    Windows loses settings

    The lockups sound like low system resources. The undocking taskbar, however, is a new one one me. PS If your using Nortan AV 2004 or 2005, that could be the culprit. It uses gobs of system resources and eats 98 machines for lunch!

    error: 678

    Error 678 is a major league pain! If your on dsl and connect using PPPoE, chances are you have a bad Password/username. If it's not that it can be 1 of about 100 things. Error 678 is Windows way of saying "I can't get a connection and I don't know why." Here are a few of the things that can...
