    Copying new sound scheme XP Pro

    Hello! After adding in several new sounds and saving it as a new scheme, is it possible to copy that scheme and use is on another PC? I have to assume the sound files must also reside on the 2nd PC and in the same path (C:Docs Settings/Me/Sounds as an example).

    What Net Commands can I use?

    Thanks! I downloaded look@lan and it's what I was looking for; I just did not know if there was a way to do it in the DOS shell. Thanks again for all the replies!

    Winsock issue XP Pro SP2

    Thanks for the reply! I read every link that was posted and I can rule out any hardware issue since it is only the one box (and only in admin mode) that has the issue. I tried the patch (Microsoft patch (KB884020)and it did not have an effect. I installed SP2 around 3 years ago I believe...

    Outlook Express Address Book recovery from dead HD

    Hello all! I have a laptop HD that needs to have the OS reloaded but I'd like to recover the email addresses stored in OE. I have no way (as far as I know) to pull up OE on the drive; so is there a way to copy the address book without doing an export? Thanks in advance!
