    Need some LinkSys Help

    I recently started using Comcast's free McAfee Security Firewall and Anti-Virus, and I've been pulling my hair out ever since. Whether it was my mistake or whatever, I'm committed to using it and I'd like to get this fixed. My home network runs on a 54G v.2.0 LinkSys router with the latest...

    Hard Drive Beeping?

    I have a IBM Deskstar 41.0 Gig drive, relatively new (built June 2001) that has been a slave drive in one of my PCs. I had some problems with this machine and subsequently installed a new root drive and OS. I had saved a lot of data to my slave before making the switch, and when I reassembled...

    Problem with using different ISP from DSL provider

    At work, we are using verizon dsl. Our web page is hosted by a small (local?)ISP called MAP Internet. I have a email address that uses our domain name that was working fine until a couple of weeks ago. Apparently verizon is taking measures to prevent spam and they are not (easily) allowing...

    Automatic Login in OE disabled?

    I'm using W2K and Outlook Express on a hand-me-down PC where we imported all my mail settings, and what I can't figure out is that OE is asking me to enter my password for every time I try to download mail, send mail, or re-open the program. There doesn't appear to be anything wrong with the...

    Need Help with Forte Free Agent - Won't Authenticate

    While Agent worked this morning, it won't work tonight and I'm baffled. Everytime I try to download new headers, I get an error 480, server failed to authenticate.

    How do I Import Transparent Background GIFs into Visio 2000?

    The header pretty much says it all. Seems like every GIF (odd-shapes) that I create in Photoshop or whatever graphics program looks great (no background) in other programs but when I Import a transparent gif into a Visio 2000 drawing... the white background suddenly appears. In Photoshop...

    Can I convert CD11 CDR files to CD10 CDRs?

    At ho,e I have CD11, at work we have CD10. I transferred a load of files created on CD11 to my machine at work but found that I can't open them. So the question of the hour is whether there's an easy way to "convert" down the CD11 files to CD10s. Short of opening up each file and re-saving it...

    Un-Naming an XP Pro Computer

    I'm relatively new to XP and I'd like to know how I might go about deleting my name in the computer or re-naming it? I got a new laptop, powered it on and gave it a name, and now I've decided to sell it... so I'd like to remove my personal information. Sounds dumb, but I'd appreciate any help...

    How do I totally "wipe" a HDD?

    Is there a not-too-difficult method to totally wipe all information from a relatively modern HDD? I have a 30 Gig Quantum Fireball Plus 7200 rpm drive and the guy who gave it to me suggested that I put a magnet on it for a few hours. I kinda laughed then remembered that it worked for audio...

    Windows 2000 Pro/SP4 Problems - I Need Help!

    I've been trying (unsuccessfully) to install SP4 on my dual CPU W2K machine. I've installed and uninstalled it probably 3 or 4 times, and everytime I try, on the reboot... that nasty blue screen comes up. So I uninstall, and for some strange reason, the machine has become unstable with regard...
