Hi all, How do you add printers in your NT 4.0 domain? Going around to each individual and setting them doesnt' seem very effecient. Is there a way to do this thru a dos script or some other means? Thanks in advance!

rdodge, Thanks for the reply, but unfortunately I was already aware of this information. I'm quite certian it is my code setting the option group to a string that causes the buttons to gray. However, I need to have a record changed to a string value - not a number. Any more suggestions?

Hi all.. Ok there are about a million access forms, but I figure I'll start here =) I have a form that contains six groupings of three radio buttons: Score1 N/A, Iron, Halo Score2 N/A, Iron, Halo ... I need to make this form store the information to print out on a report. So if Score1 has...

Hi guys, OK, I admit - newb question - but I'm pretty desperate as my googling hasn't dispayed the help I need. I have a form that has a series of option button groups. I woudl like these optinos to change data to be displayed in a report. So I have something like this: Form1: Opt1=1 Opt2=2...

This is going a bit OT - we should quickly return to the original topic - but it's still somewhat related: How do you handle spyware? I was shocked by the large volume of spy apps on this system and found I needed at least two apps to remove them. I believe they were degrading performance...

Well I'm not talking slowness from day one - but rather a gradual progression... Had memory been the issue, I would believe it would be apparent even on the first day of operations...

Thank you guys for these excellent tips... I will try them this evening to see how they work. BTW, that page suggests using services.msc vs msconfig to change start services =P just in case u didn't catch it...

Hi all, I have a computer that I am trying to optimize. It is quite slow. I have run defrag (which was at 13% fragmation), and removed tons of spyware. The system seems to have gone from very slow to just slow. Are there any other things I can do to speed the thing up? Upon factory install...

Thanks again for the help guys... Indeed, a lesson was learned =)

I could protect my ego and just not follow up to this thread or simply admit a VERY STUPID mistake... Last night I went home to try the steps suggested. After switching power cables and outlets w/the computer and monitor, I noticed the monitor did not work. Since I was not fully ready to...

I have both. The CPU fan is drawing power from the mobo, but the exhaust and intake fans use power directly from the powersupply... Oh yes, and of course there is the fan in the PS. I was watching the CPU and intake/exhuast fans before - I should look at the PS fan as well, I guess (in a...

These are all excellent suggestions! Since I'm rather pressed for time may I do the following: 1) Swap power cables 2) Swap power outlets 3) Using a known good ATX case, put the jumper to that switch 4) Unplug all perpherials (not CPU and RAM tho?) 5) Hit the switch and pray A bad CPU and RAM...

This is encoraging news viol8ion! Or at least it provides hope that I may not need to shell out $70+ for a new mobo =). I cheked the switch in the sense that I made sure the wires connected to the mobo. But as far as physically checking if the switch was completing the circuit - I'm not sure...

Hi all, Yesterday I tried to turn on the computer but received no response. My initial reaction was to check the plugs to make sure nothing had been kicked out of place. Everthing was fine. Next I replaced the powersupply thinking that it died. Still no response. My next logical conclusion...

Yes I recommend Mandrake Linux as well: http://www.mandrakelinux.com Have fun =)
