    Period at end of computer name

    Can anyone help me? I keep changing my computer name and for some reason, it keeps putting a period at the end. Does this have something to do with DNS suffix settings? I think this may have something to do with my email issue as well. I'm able to receive email but when I send out, I get an...

    Using a fax on printer without land line

    I got a question for you guys. I just recently purchased an all-in-one printer. I need to use the fax portion of it a lot. I currently don't have a home phone line and I don't want to get one installed (I just want to keep my cell phone). I heard that their is a way you can still fax out...

    how do you capture screen???

    I used to know how to do it, but forgot. I was wondering how you would capture the screen, let's say for DOS, installing DHCP, DNS, etc... and include that capture in a powerpoint presentation. I think it use to be ALT+PrintScreen. Has it changed or is it still the same?

    How to auto...

    Jkoontz, No, that didn't work either, just tried it. When I go in options, I go to mail format and I already have my email messages composed in Word. The next tab shows up at my home PC that's loaded with Win2k, but I don't have the same options under spelling that I do on my work PC that's...

    How to auto...

    Combo, I went in the options and it's not the same options as Windows XP. In Windows XP when you go to Tools/Options/Spelling you have a AutoCorrect Options tab you can hit. When I go home to my Win2k Outlook, that option isn't there. Is there any kind of way you can put that same option...

    How to auto...

    I got a question guys. I have XP Professional at work and Win2k Pro at home. I have Outlook 2002 on both computers. I like the feature in Windows XP Pro edition for Outlook that while you're writing/editing text, it auto capitalizes and auto spell-checks and you don't even have to set it in...

    How come CPU speed is wrong when I turn on computer?

    Silly me, you're right, I haven't told anyone what kind of motherboard I have. I vaguely remember what kind it is and I cannot find the manual for the motherboard (I think it's in storage now because I just relocated from Europe). I know it's a KT7, i'm just not sure if it's a KT75A or an...

    How come CPU speed is wrong when I turn on computer?

    It doesn't even let me get into the BIOS and make changes anymore. It shows the screen for like half a second and goes right into Windows. I'm not even sure on what key combo to hit to enter the BIOS and make changes. Some are CONTROL DELETE, some are SPACEBAR, others are F8. Their's got to...

    How come CPU speed is wrong when I turn on computer?

    Yes, I am saving on exit. I'm going to try it one more time tonight. I'll check out the jumper settings too and everything else. If all else fails, you know i'll be back in here!

    How come CPU speed is wrong when I turn on computer?

    I have done that several times through the BIOS under processor speed, but the next time I reboot or turn on my computer, it shows 1050 MHZ.

    How many pieces of Cat6 can you fit through a pipe with a 5” inside...

    I agree, those variable are important to factor in. Is there a formula though to actually calculate a good number on how many Cat6 cables you can fit in a 5inch inside diameter pipe? A Cat6 cable is roughly about 1/4 of an inch thick and if the inside diameter of the pipe is 5 inches, than you...

    How come CPU speed is wrong when I turn on computer?

    I have an AMD Athlon XP 1800, with a 1.53 GHZ processor speed. When I turn on my computer, it shows 1050 MHZ for my processor speed. Why does it shows 1050 MHZ rather than 1.53 GHZ it's supposed to an how can I make the change on my computer (BIOS) to recogzine the true output of the AMD...

    connecting to a printer on another subnet

    Sorry guys for not responding in awhile. You know how the holidays can get pretty hectic. Anyways, I solved the printer problem and was able to print to another subnet. I tried what you guys told me, but none seemed to work. The biggest thing here is that their isn't a routing device in...
