I am just as unsure why this all started. I think that possibly some Adware or mailware but I'm not sure. My system started out where I was getting these common errors when I was moving files from my laptop to one of my desktops at home. I could print thru one of the desktops without any...

In my previous post I believe that I mentioned that I did do a Repair Install of the XP SP2 OS. Well in doing so, I re-activated the Automatic Update, which I had set to tell be before downloading. Anyway, I now got an error comming up saying that there was an error updating the .net framework...

Ok, made the registry adjustment. Now I have to try some file swapping w/ the laptop. It's aweful to think that this all probably started because of an Adware or mailware bug. I hope this helps someone else from getting into all this. :<} >-- --< [worm] Bill...

Looking over some of the latest threads for the XP Pro, looks like several are having Networking issues that are all fairly close in nature. I'm going to try and re-do bcastner thread, and also remove the network adapters before restarting, and see what happens when it re-starts. It's about the...

I'm back.. Well I read thru and followed Bill C. Advise. Now I'm experiencing a Very Slow Internet Connection, and my LAN is now producing a different error saying that there are packet errors in the event log and that the packet is the error. I'm trying to look up the event id and code 6004...

If you go into Hardware config, does the Network adapter show a yellow ? befor it or are there any other errors. How are your stations receiving IP addresses, static or dynamic, by router or server? In any event make sure that your machine is getting an IP address, and that it's in the same...

All you need is your original XP disk or floppies. Boot the machine using the disk or floppies, then when you come to the screen talking about repair or install, go to the INSTALL then you'll be brought to a screen where you can Install over-top your current installation, or wipe it clean and...

Isn't there a way to Use a Group Policy to effectivly "remove" or make MSN messenger or any other messenger inactive. Try a group policy that basically looks for the MSN messenger folders and or registery setting, and just have it remove them each time the user Logs into the network. I did a...

I would get rid of the Microsoft NWLink (Ipx) and stay with IP. Download and install the Novell Netware client. You'll need some info to put into the client so that it can log-in. Such as the Tree Name and Location of the User/admin person in the Tree you are logging in as. There are other...
