RookThis, Thanks very much for the reply. The situation , since your reply , has changed somewhat and I may be happy with everything now - ( that is a BIG statement (! > vbg ! ) What I did in the end was set both the desktop and the laptop to " Use the following IP/DNS Server Addresses " in...

I have my desktop and Laptop successfully networked and connected to the Web through an external DSL modem and a Linksys router. Both have XP Pro SP2. At present the laptop is linked wirelessly to the router by means of a wireless adaptor card and the TCP/IP properties of this wireless...

The Heading really states my question here. What is the difference between an Image File of a hard drive and a Copy of a hard drive and what are the reasons for choosing one rather than the other

I have my Desktop and laptop successfully networked and am able to share both files and a printer. Both PC's have XP Pro-SP2 installed. The Desktop and laptop have the names "Dtop" and "ltop" respectively and both are members of the same workgroup which is named "WORKGROUP" On the Desktop I...

I have XP Pro-SP2 and , intermittently , IE6 , after intially accessing a web site , will "freeze" and will then give the message :- "..unable to find www.google.com .." even though it has only just accessed that site . - this happens not just to Google but to many others also . The only way...

Thanks garebo. <Im wondering if sp2 would have anything to do with your problem or not?> I don't see how it can as I used D.I. with SP2 without any problems before I had these errors.

This is a related issue to a similar post of mine recently in this Forum. I have been using D.I. 2002 for almost 2 years now to create Image Files of my Partitions without any problems. Drive 1 is 80G and is partitioned into C,E,F & G drives. Drive 2 is 120G and is the D drive. I have XP...
