It turned out that one of the guys on the network was running Trend Micro's PC-Cillin Internet Security and hadn't turned off the firewall. That particular firewall was what was causing all the problems.

I disabled the windows SP2 firewalls in each computer that is having this problem and that didn't change anything unfortunately.

I tried all of the things suggested on those pages, but unfortunately they didn't work. In fact, now two other machines on my network are having the same problem. Reformatting fixes it, but that's a rediculous approach. Could this be viral? I have the latest sysclean and norton and pc-cillin and...

I have two problems. The first being one computer using an opnboard Marvell gigabit network card cannot access the workgroup, though it should be able to. It's never head a problem before, but after the last reformat it is no longer able to browse the network. Problem number two is of a...

I've tried this with numerous different sticks of RAM, in fact I can't get this board to POST with more than one stick in. I've tried three different 512MB sticks of Kingston PC2700, each to no avail. I've also tried a different power supply, different XP CD, different CD drive, and removed teh...

Did you manually configure one or did you use IPconfig /renew to get a default internal address? -tech

I am installing (or trying to rather) Windows XP Pro SP2 on a new machine. The machine is an Athlon 64 3200+ with 512mb of RAM, with a 40GB Western Digital IDE harddrive. Everything is running fine up unti you hit enter to start the install process. The system locks up trying to display the...

Are you looking to set up a static IP? If you are just go into the TCP/IP preferences for your network card in the control panel and set one there. -tech

We ran Trend Micro's Sysclean Utility (http://www.trendmicro.com/download/dcs.asp) and it found the virus Agabot.worm. The method we used to find that the system was in need of a deeper scan was running through the task manager when the system hung, we found there to be 2 instances of the...

Actually it turned out to be a virus problem--one that Norton Antivirus, updated to current, could not detect. A little registry editing fixed it right up and the problem was resolved. Thanks for your help Matt, and anyone that wants more details on this, ask and you shall recieve.

It was doing this before I got ahold of it, when there weren't any updates applied, and also after I got ahold of it when I reformatted and applied all the patches. I did check event veiwer, and it did have three different errors listed, but they were almost random, it was teh same three, but...

The computer I am working with is having issues logging in. About 9 times out of 10 the system will hang right after trying to log in as a user (doesn't matter which one). The system is still running, it hasn't crashed, and there isn't anything out of the ordinary in the task manager. The system...

While I do get occasional slow transfers, and windows will slow down during large transfers, this doesn't mention anything about corruption. I will see what I can do to adjust the interframe gap, but I am not too overly bothered with slow transfers, my main concern is unusable files after...
