    Your Top 3 Programs

    New PC Network Problems

    Remove simple file sharing on proxp, not available on homexp. Create sharing either to drives or folders, donot use share name with "$" to remove adminshare. Set static IP's on all PC's, better then DCHP, most broadband isp's have DHCP, so it would be conflicting and redundant to have it...

    Beffling XP connectivity issue!

    Definitely go with static ip's. Most broadband ISP's provide DHCP, so you should turn off DHCP on your PC's and router, not needed, also DNS service not needed. Also keep in XP is notorious with network shares, you may have to install NWLink Protocol and enable within the Internet Protocol in...

    Stopping the default share of C drive

    Instead of choosing C$ as your share, choose simply "C" that will at least make the share non-administrative, and force login to share. Hope this helps.

    XP install and RAID Drivers

    A little off topic, but here is a glaring example as to why the floppy is one of the most useful storage devices. I cannot comprehen as to why they are trying to phase it out. You can copy small files to it either through windows or dos. You can boot to it and load useful utilities, such...

    Pc problems (crashes when playing games)

    I don't want to rain on your parade here, but an AMD 1900+, 300w PW and a GeForce 4TI 4400 don't exactly add up to a very capable rig for running Doom3. You mentioned you pulled the sound card out and all was well. That suggests to me two things, 1. your PW is indeed insuffienct, and 2. your...

    Programs that may behave differently in Windows XP Service Pack 2

    Just thought I'd share my solution with everyone. I found an additional line in the "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\Winlogon\Userinit" regkey. The string value is suppose to look like this and nothing else trailing it, "C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe," yes the comma belongs there and...
