Sorry to come in late on this one!! I seemed to remember having this issue with some systems after saving to a floppy (which you mentioned you may have been saving/accessing files on floppies lately). Try to save a file to your hard drive and then shut down. Alternately, you could clear your...

geeze, sorry mattjurado -- I had not looked at the link you posted, but it is nice to see that those recesses of my brain seem to have been on the right track!! Nice catch on that one! Mudskipper ----------------- Groucho said it best- "A four year-old child could understand this...

This seems vaguely familiar...did this computer every have Client Access installed on it (for IBM AS/400 emulation)? If so, maybe try to re-install and uninstall it again so that it correctly cleans itself up...? Mudskipper ----------------- Groucho said it best- "A four year-old...

...prod you along): I was playing with the cat in the garage when I was in third grade. We were in the garage, and I was chasing it all over. *I* was having fun, but the cat was pretty frustrated. I had opened the big chest freezer and put the cat in. It kept trying to jump out, and I was...

I hope that you don't mind my reviving an old thread. Recent conversations have brought this issue to the forefront of my thoughts!! Right or wrong, acronym abuse is one way that you can make a really bad impression with me. I would be hard pressed to hire a hardware technician that replaces...

I'm assuming that you are using some version of Windows, here.... In the Volume control, did you change the options (properties) from Playback to Recording before you checked to see if the mic was muted? ....I've seen many people miss this setting.... Mudskipper ----------------- Groucho...

Actually, when you first start up Windows, does it ask for a password? If so, and you hit "escape" or click on cancel, then Windows won't save the DUN passwords. If so, then this is very fixable. Mudskipper ----------------- Groucho said it best- "A four year-old child could...

Okay, I can't resist--how many of you out there also really thought that Hotel California by the Eagles went like this: "On a dark desert highway, Cool Whip in my hair..." Mudskipper ----------------- Groucho said it best- "A four year-old child could understand this! Quick! Run...

Hmmmm.... I once worked on a desktop that got garbage all over the screen, but only when drivers were loaded up. After alternate drivers were tried (and failed), we swapped the video card out for an identical card, and all was well. We could only figure that a portion of video RAM was being...

I've also had that problem when the switch on the back (110v v.s. 220v) was in the wrong position.... Mudskipper ----------------- Groucho said it best- "A four year-old child could understand this! Quick! Run out and find me a four year-old child: I can't make heads nor tails out...

...check the back of the new PSU to ensure that it is set properly (if yours has a swtich) between 220 and 110... Check to ensure that your CPU fan is plugged into the CPU fan power tap on the MB. It seems like it should be simple, but there are many things that it could be!! Those...

Geeze. All that typing for a "duh". The doggone thing was installed in 98/ME compat. mode for some stinkin' reason and was set to run at 256 colors..... Oh well...you can bet that I won't forget to check that next time.... Mudskipper ----------------- Groucho said it best- "A four...

I have a really interesting problem, and I'm completely stuck -- can anybody offer an insight here?! A friend of mine is running Windows XP Pro. Everything was running fine (so I am told), when one day the software for the printer starts acting up. Supposedly, nothing really changed (but...

bwadding-- Have you, by chance, gone into safe mode and looked through the device manager to verify that you don't have duplicate entries relating to the IDE controllers? Also, have you removed them from safe mode and restarted? TT4U suggested this earlier, and I'm curious to know if you tried...

I would also be curious to know if you can read the floppy from Safe Mode...? Mudskipper ----------------- Groucho said it best- "A four year-old child could understand this! Quick! Run out and find me a four year-old child: I can't make heads nor tails out of this!"

...key, I saw nothing wrong with it. As it turns out, tech #2 did not happen to be on the system when I was. In addition, I did not check the *successful* logins on the system, as this possibility did not occur to me. To make a (very) long story short, he had decided (don't ask why--I have...

nlm9802 -- Go figure (slaps own forehead). It did the trick. I can't for the life of me, figure out why I was not getting messages to the effect of it now finding the Primary Domain Controller, but after renaming the NT box, deleting the account on the PDC, recreating it, and changing the name...

...this point, this ID 5721 is coming up every 5-10 minutes on its own. The only other times that I have seen these events (5721 mostly), they were *constant*--not appearing just after a sync.... So whether this is the cause of the entire issue (certainly could do it) or the result of...

Hello, all--having a bit of trouble here, and my brain is fried. I have been searching all over for solutions, and I am coming up short. I am getting the horrible feeling like this is a forehead slapping, stupid, easy issue--but it eludes me!! We have a server (still NT) that replaced a...
