    PIO mode to DMA mode? translation?

    For anybody who is interested in this subject: I recently "re-installed" (with the repair option) win2k and somehow I could not get UDMA back whatever I tried. Finally I found the solution with google: unstall the IDE-controllers, reboot and UDMA was back!

    Two harddrives - how to distinguish?

    And everybody who can't find the humor in my remark, must be the victim of...I dunno, maybe Invader Zim.

    Win 2000 Pro, rebooting

    How about making backups of the partition with the OS on it, on a regular basis? You problem would have been solved faster then you could type a message on this forum! (if you type slowly :)) Much less work than changing graphiccards, harddrives or even your wife!

    Phone Line volume and constant connection

    At http://neptune.lisa.univ-paris12.fr/Electronik/Hayes.htm you can find the modemcommands. In this case you should use ATM0 (<--zero) to switch to "speaker always off". (ATM1 = "speaker on until connected" and ATM2 = "speaker always on") You have to enter these strings somewhere in your...

    Mouse and Keyboard problems

    An "ad-hoc" solution would be to turn of "halt on keyboard-errors" in the bios (if the option is there in your bios of course)

    Rotated font

    I think I understand: he wants every character upside down individually. I just tried in Corel Printhouse and you can type a sentence and afterwards flip the whole sentence upside down. After that you even can edit the sentence (although the changes do not show "real time" anymore). This might...

    Win 2k not booting

    Does your computer boot from a DOS-diskette anyway? And when it does, can you access the harddisk?

    Win 2k not booting

    Try restoring the last backup of your system-partition, you surely created not too long ago. (Although there are rumours ppl still go through computerlife without backups! Can you believe that?)

    autocomplete in google

    I have met many people on forums and newsgroups with the problem they somehow had lost there autocomplete in google, but never somebody with a solution. There are solutions to autocomplete-problems, like found on http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=306895, but on my computer that solution worked...

    Stalling at &quot;save settings&quot;

    I don't know if somebody has talked about this before (search on "phclean" did not give any results and I have read about shutdown problems a long time ago on this forum), but my shutdown problems did re-appear, although not as bad as they had been (before removing some update). Well, I have...

    Adding third hard drive

    Why did I say that? :) It should read: anything, BUT harddrives, (i.e. burners, DVD-players, etc) attached to the controller won't be recognized in DOS.

    Swapping HDDs in Windows 2000

    Oops, that works if you replace the harddisk in one and the same computer (and are using an image from the old harddisk on the new one). If it works with the same harddisk to another computer is quite possible, but doesn't have to work, because a lot more has changed then just the harddisk.

    Swapping HDDs in Windows 2000

    You should use sysprep.exe which can be found om microsoft.com (Q2757813) and run it just before changing the harddisk. It's that easy!

    Adding third hard drive

    I use an ata ide controller, but must warn you for an annoying problem: attach a harddisk to the controller and you won't be able to use &quot;turn of harddisk&quot; in so many minutes in Poweroptions anymore (something one would like to use with more harddisks). Also, anything attached to the...
