I understand that the cable connecting the ADSL modem to the splitter is a straight through cable connection pins 2, 3, 4 and 5 using RJ11 6 pin connectors. My question is if you use twisted pair cable (with 4 pairs) to make this connection, what is the best way to select the wires in order to...

Are you saying that if I have a 2 PC network with no domains; an account on PC 1, called "bill", and an account on PC 2, called "bill" (both have the same password), that if I log on to PC 1 as "bill", and I mount a drive from PC 2, that my rights to the files on PC 2 are NOT the same as if I...

It's not a question of having defined the appropriate rights on the PC - I checked and the account concerned has full control. It seems, rather, as if the PC with the file does not recognize that the account on the other PC is the same as the owner of the folder and its files. But I do not know...

I have 3 PCs on a LAN, one with XP Family, one with 2000, one with XP Pro. There are several identical accounts on each PC (same names, sames passwords). The drive C: of the XP Family machine is shared, and the box to allow network users to modify the shared files is checked. There are no...

Does anyone have an update on this issue? I have installed FILEHand Search, which indexes Outlook messages, and it asks this hundreds of times during the indexing. Really wish there were a simple way to start and to stop the checking.

Bingo! The first program that was NOT displayed had a -1 at the end of the display icon date. I took it away and it works now. I also noted that several entries have a "-0" at the end of the DisplayIcon data. This does not pose a problem. Many thanks!

Changed to a .cmd file and ran it. It gave errors for both regsvr32 c:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Ole DB\Oledb32.dll and regsvr32 c:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Ado\Msado15.dll This step did not solve the problem. I started to run the steps in KB article, with the following...

Two questions about this solution: 1) When I run the reg file I get the message: "The key will be restored over the key: pgptray All values and sub-keys under this key will be deleted". This sounds to me like PGP 8.0, which I have indeed installed, may be at the root of the problem - although...

The applet in the Control Panel, Add or Remove Programs, doesn't work correctly any more. It does not display the full list of installed software. It displays only the software that can fit in the first window without scrolling. It used to be that this would happen, and I would quit the applet...

My backgrounds in PowerPoint 2002 tend to be dark, making it difficult for me to see the text insertion marker (not the cursor!). Does anyone know of a way to change the color or the shape of this marker?

After upgrading Office 2000 to Office XP, every time I start Outlook, the Windows Installer program runs twice. Both times its appears to do nothing at all, generates no error message, and has no apparent ill effect other than wasting time. How do I troubleshoot this?

How can I force the Windows Update application to be reinstalled, or from where can I download it and reinstall it manually?

On XP Pro with all SPs and critical updates installed, windows udpate worked fine. Then I installed IIS from the CD distribution medium. Since then, Update does the search for updates and says that there are none (and it does this much too quickly). This is wrong, because it no longer reports...

I have upgraded Office 2000 Pro to Office XP Pro and then applied all Office XP service packs. Now, each time I start Outlook, the Windows installer opens a screen (twice) with the message "Preparing to install", which is quickly closed. I do not see any problem afterwards. I...

I need to reinstall Office 2000 to which all available service packs have been applied, but whenever I try to either install or uninstall it, I get the message that the corrective package does not exist and Icannot continue. It is not a problem of access rights, as it is being done as an...

Better late than never. Let us suppose that IT provides operational services (making everying in production run as it should) and development services (creating and evolving new applications). You will find a tremendous amount of information about the operational side by looking for ITIL (IT...

Unless I do a cold boot with the network cable plugged in to my laptop (that is, if I plug in my laptop after having logged in, or even after booting, but before logging in), my laptop does not recognize that it is online unless I perform a manual operation, like mapping a network drive. By...

Good suggestion. It helps alot on the visibility. Thanks.

I work with many slides where the background color makes the mouse cursor or pointer very difficult to see. It would help if I could change the color. Anyone know how?

There are 2 PCs, one with XP family, the other with 2000 Pro. There are no domains, only a single workgroup. A printer and files on 2000 are shared. An account with exactly the same name, but different passwords, exists on both PCs. When that user is logged on the XP PC and tries to print on the...
