    Win-to-Mac Samba Access

    I have a Windows machine used as a file server. I also have a Mac on the same network with Samba enabled and the shares configured; however, when I add a file from a Windows machine to the share, it is not displayed on the Mac share until I disconnect and remount the share. How can I get the...

    "DOS" Prompt without Floppy

    I need to get to an MS-DOS Prompt outside of Windows so I can disable Intel Boot Agent - the program that does this cannot run in a command window. A floppy formatted within Windows with MS-DOS System Files does the job well on my desktop (I get a prompt), but the laptop I'm trying to disable...

    Accessing Old Profile

    I recently DROPPED a laptop, destroying the motherboard but thankfully not the hard drive. Instead of messing around with it, I just bought a new machine. I put the hard drive from the old machine into the new, and naturally could not boot. My solution was to partition the drive with...

    Synaptics Touchpad Not Recognized

    Floppy identified but not recognized

    My floppy drive is quirky, as was the last drive I put in this computer. Yet I am doubtful it is anything related to my motherboard. Read on... I should first point out that I'm using a Gateway Profile 3 -- this means that I have a laptop floppy drive, a Teac FD-05HG "slim jim&quot...

    No Black w/Epson Stylus C60

    Two full black ink cartridges are not solving my problem of not being able to print black with my Epson Stylus C60. Color works beautifully when black is not necessary. I've read about some nozzle cleaner stuff, but since it isn't widespread, I didn't simply jump to buy it. Is there anything...

    Access & Briefcases: No more damned replication!

    Is there a way to disable Access's insistence to have this damned replication crap when a database is copied into a briefcase? The result is a copy of the database that is filled with extra fields and that is limited in that I cannot change its design. All I want to do is be able to have a...

    "Picture" Tab Disabled in "Format WordArt"

    I would like to use a picture to fill in WordArt in MS Word, but for some reason the "Picture" tab in the "Format WordArt" dialog is disabled, as in the screenshot below:
