Thanks for the replies... The problem with the .dll file was all down to Windows Defender!! Uninstalled and it's all ok - quake 4 installs no problem. I've since heard that windows defender is affecting several other installs. As for the DVD - you were right, it was on PIO but wouldn't change...

Just out of interest - any idea why my runtime library thing went wrong in the first place when in the past Quake 4 for example would have installed with no problem....? ICE

Thanks very much for the advice - I'll try it as soon as I get home and let you know... ICE

Hi all, I tried to install an older program called moviejack2 - it works on my other PC with XP and I have since learned that it wont install with service pack 2. The machine I tried to install on is XP Pro with service pack 2. During install, the machine froze and I had to manually reset. On...

Hi all, Does anyone know an easy way to check what speed your network card should be running at? The connection for one of our machines is set to 100/Full Duplex but for some reason packets are being discarded... Just need to check that the network card itself is set to 100/Full. Any ideas, ICE

Good idea... didn't think of Samba and the drive I want to get to is already shared... Nice one, ICE

Hi all, Was wondering if anyone knew how to grep a line, and also pull out the line that immediately follows it... For example - we have a program that sends tcp strings to a database and then gets a string back which all goes into a log file. I can grep the send string fine - but is there an...

Thanks Genius, you've been a real help.... just a couple of things I don't quite get... I am trying to create a while loop in my program - I was thinking of setting $i to "1". And then, while $i == 1 (just like in your example) I will be checking all the machines. However, I find that...

Thanks everyone for all the great advice. I have now got my program almost ready to go... I have one more question though... The subroutine I have to ping the machines and change the colours in the circles etc is triggered by a button. So, everytime you want to ping the machines you have to...

Hi all, I am trying to write a small GUI in perl/tk and it's purpose is to basically ping another machine to see if it is on the network or not. It's a basic monitoring program. My intention is to have anything like a green circle in the GUI that will change to red if the machine I am pinging...

Hi all, We are installing an IVR from Nortel Networks (VPS/is2dd) which will be used in conjunction with our Avaya Definity (release 8). However when calls come into the Nortel from the definity, we are not picking up the CLI or DNIS numbers. The Nortel guys assure us that everything is set up...

Hi Pete, thanks for the reply. When I log in locally as administrator, it works fine... Does this mean that I simply wont be able to do it under my normal login? Is there no way to edit my profile? Thanks, Ice
