    network share won't be mapped...

    First idea: path - \\ipaddress\shared_folder connect as - machine_name\local_user_name (machine name is from the network identification tab of system properties) This will force the authentication for the local user. Second idea: This sounds like cache credential issue. 1) make sure the...

    Delay in Applying Personal Settings when loggin on

    Do you have "Roaming Profiles' enabled? If so, you may wish to check the size of the profiles. On occasion, depending on where and how the user saves files, the profile can grow quite large (files may actually be being saved in the profile, itself). In a case like this, deleting the profile...

    Disk boot failure

    If you have the media for installation of 2000 Professional, just boot off of that media to do your install. You may have to enter your BIOS to tell your PC to boot from CD.

    10 minutes to open programs

    1. How much RAM do you have? 2. Have you tried disabling indexing services? 3. Have you scanned for spyware via AdAware, SpyBot or some such tool? 4. Have you gone to ibm.com and updated the bios and other files for your Thinkpad...

    NONE of my NICs work! PCI problem?

    ACPI= Advanced Configuration Power Interface. I believe that the O/S is telling you that ACPI is enabled but that your NIC isn't ACPI compliant (can't be powered off by the O/S). Try disabling ACPI in your BIOS configuration.

    PC anywhere question

    You may wish to take a look at the resolution setting on the XP machine. Perhaps it is set higher now than before it was upgraded? If so, perhaps lowering it would help?

    Monitor Driver Keeps resting itself

    I believe that this may be a fixed-frequency monitor. If so, for a video card to run a fixed frequency monitor: http://www.si87.com/Products/Videocards/videocards.html

    Can ping but not tracert

    The "ping" command uses ICMP packets. Some traceroute programs use UDP packets on port 33434 and adds one to the port number for each hop (so it can tell which ones are timing out). Firewalls may block either at intervening hosts for packets addressedto them directly. For example, a...
