    Discovering passwords for users on the same PC

    I am currently "Administrator" on a pc used by the kids. However I need to get on using one of the accounts used by one of the kids to fix their email (they managed to delete the password in Outlook for the account - I dont want them to know the password for the email). Is there any way...

    Deleting All Calendar Items

    Dont think there is an option in Outlook 2003 to do this... just had a quick look at my own but cant see anything unfortunately. If you dont use Outlooks functions any further than for downloading email, Thunderbird is a better option (I've converted to Thunderbird myself but still have Outlook...

    MS Outlook 2002 Constantly Resending Message

    I'd check nothing is in his Outbox and also delete the item from Sent Items folder. See if it resends. Check your mail settings to make sure you're not requesting your email client to leave a copy of the emails on the mail server.

    Free Firewall

    I agree with this guy... I'd use a router even if I only had one computer connected to it. If you REALLY want to ditch the router, I'd go with the normal XP firewall with SP2 - my brother in law is using it these days and its a lot better than Zonealarm's and Norton's efforts IMHO

    Installing Win98SE on a laptop without CDROM

    lol... by getting that laptop working with Win98 and Office97, I have gained some silence in the house by avoiding the kids from arguing over their computer (for games and homework etc), so its definitely a good thing after all the work :p

    Installing Win98SE on a laptop without CDROM

    Hi all, I've got an old laptop here which I want to install Win98SE on (currently has 2x partitions on a 1.3gb hdd, but nothing installed on either atm). There is no cdrom in the laptop and I dont have a parallel external cdrom to use. I do have a USB Zip100 but there are no DOS drivers for...

    Outlook Express

    I would recommend setting it so it would download the emails and remove them from the server... If user A logs in and get sthe emails, User B (when logging in) will be recognised by Outlook as a different user, and will download all emails in the account which it doesnt already have (therefore...

    Need For Speed Underground

    Does anyone know where the saved games are held for NFS Underground? I've already looked in "My Documents" (where the saved games were for NFS:HP2) and they're not there. Anyone have any ideas? I'm jus wondering as I want to get my saved game off this PC onto another.

    Max resolution of monitors

    Aye, I would recommend going no higher than the recommended maximum resolution as specified by the manufacturer. 2048x1536 does look good... but 1600x1200 isnt so bad (especially as using 1600 will not dmg your monitor) :)

    Samsung E105, Customizable?

    GUI change needs a full software flash and some editing... not to mention a compatible MBUS/FBUS data cable to upload the new flash to it (not an easy job, you really need to be able to code confidently as you'll b0rk the phone if you mess up as MBUS/FBUS talk direct to the EEPROM (main software...

    what mobo is better

    I would definitely go with the Abit... know a few people who have this mobo and have heard nothing but good things about it (which is always good). You could also look at the direction of the Gigabyte GA-7NNXP (or newer equivalents) as this is also spoken well of.

    Symbol Technologies LDT3805 HandHeld Scanners

    This is probably one of the last places I can find out anything about these scanners... I'm mainly after software for Windows 98/NT (it's not warez - it used to be publicly available from Symbol's website, but they dont have it anymore, nor do they support these LDTs anymore :() Also, if...

    Promise PDC20276 ATA/RAID Controller...

    I have actually solved my problem :) For those who have the problem in the future, the solution is this :) Uninstall 2.00.1020.41 promise drivers (come on the cd with mobo) and reboot. & Install 2.00.1020.32 promise drivers (I found them on a gigabyte archive ftp) and another reboot...

    Promise PDC20276 ATA/RAID Controller...

    Hi all, I've got a bit of a problem with my PC at home... its not a major issue really and I can make do with it, but I'm sure in a month or two I'll be tearing my hair out over it (and being a male at the age of 22 (and living with 4 females)... I'm starting to get less and less to tear!)...

    ebuyer.co.uk?

    Aye, ebuyer are very good. I bought my graphics card from there. I had problems with it causing my system to hang etc. I sent it back on Friday (special delivery) and got a replacement first thing on Monday morning! I would say that is definitely good after-sales service.

    Weird BIOS HDD problem

    Are these two HDDs on the same IDE channel by any chance? If so, try just connecting one of them up and see if it finds that OK first. If it finds this one OK, try connecting the 2nd one up too and see if that finds that one too. If it works from there, good luck with it working next boot :) If...
