Yo fellow OSNNians, I was recently greeted with a weird problem concerning specific P2P programs I use and them seemingly locking my net access. I wanted to download a few game demos through Azureus (a Java based bittorrent client) and eDonkey2000, but after like about 10 minutes...

Hi, Ya see, I just finished a dual monitor setup between my HIS IceQ 9800pro, a Mitsubishi Diamond View DV153 15" LCD, and a Samsung Samtron 56E 15" CRT. I can get the dual monitor thingy working fine, but whenever I reboot/shutdown... both monitors work during BIOS and the loading of windows...

Bah... got a predicament here. I need to teach my old man how to use a computer (he's has little to no experience), and I don't have time to actually sit next to him and teach him. Any programs or tutorials I can use to help? Thanks. :cool:

Yo! Just rebuilt an old AMD K6-2 Win98se system, and am wondering why it restarts instead of shutting down. Sorry if this has been discussed before. Thanks.
