I'm using a copy of Norton Ghost 7.50 and I'm uncertain if it will properly clone a SCSI drive on a server I have. The server system looks like this normally: SCSI drive chain: ID0 (18GB HDD as C:), ID6 (TAPE) IDE drive chain: Primary (CDROM), Secondary (40GB HDD as D:) I've used the...

I was investigating getting a computer (Celeron, 512MB, XP Pro SP2) running with dual 7.5GB IDE HDDs, using a software RAID1 (simple "mirror") as I used to do all the time in my WinNT 3.51/4.0 days. The HDDs are on the same IDE cable as master/slave. Well, I got to the point where the disks...

I'm trying to counter my corporate network trying to keep my homepage set upon their Intranet. I made this script: <SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript" LANGUAGE="javascript"> <!-- to counter autoreset of homepage this.setHomePage('U:\homepage.html'); //--> </SCRIPT> ... but it doesn't...

I work in a bank, and losing data even once-in-a-blue-moon is not acceptable. Tantalizingly, our Windows XP machines fail in a range of recoverable ways. Today, I have a machine with a 20GB IDE HDD that has 2 partitions: 0 is FAT32 (1GB, for holding the source files for drivers, etc.), and 1...

I need a way to stop all the common users on an XP Pro machine from accessing certain sites on the Internet. The problem starts that these machines are used in a common work environment that allows people to walk away and let another user walk up to the machine and use it (to control...

I can't get PHP to respond to <? or <?php commands on this system. The Windows is stable and on a corp intranet. I thought I'd try an internal webpage with scripting capabilities for distributing support files. I didn't want to go back into that pile of blistering hell known as IIS and ASP...

Does anyone have a productive idea for what to do with piles of dead IDE hard disk drives? I have about 40. They have things like powerful magnets inside, which could be extracted and sold. Is there any market for this kind of thing?

I have to now use a webmail app (Novell Groupwise Webaccess) running in MSIE 6 under WinXP. It's irritating enough after being forced to downgrade from Outlook, but the damned thing has a short timeout and I'm forever re-logging in. This behavior made me recall the days of AOL's timeouts, and...

My goal is to get two flatpanel monitors working on a Windows XP, P3 computer with two video cards, for use as a Bloomberg terminal. The system we use now is a Dell GX270 running Windows XP Pro SP1, with the latest Bloomberg (2003-11-08?) software. The GX270 is our highest-end PC, and it also...

I am looking for where MSIE 6 stores its security certificates (Tools, Internet Options, Content, Certificates). Amazingly, by searching for a few company names (of the CAs, like "CyberTrust") on my HDD and registry, I can't find them. What I'm looking to do is find the area where the personal...

I used to generate Excel macros by a recording feature, and then edit the resulting VBA code. But Outlook 2000 stymies me. There's no "record a macro" feature. I wanted a macro that when run, produces a new mail item, with no signature or subject, and with the recipient address already...

I've done multibooting before, but never with 2 copies of the same OS in order to keep the kids from messing up Dad's stuff. What I want to do now is make an 8GB hard disk into two partitions: 1: 2GB C:, Win98SE, FAT16, C:\Windows; Dad's basic surfing and Everquest. 2: 6GB D:, Win98SE, FAT16...

This thing cost me about 43 bucks and even at the current state of problems, is more than worth it. But I'd like to share my experiences with it and to see if other flashdiskers have any thoughts. Firstly, I can only assume the thing is powered from the USB, but how does it retain memory? Is...

Well, there are things you know, and things you know and have also done. Here's something I haven't done yet: I have a 10-20GB IDE drive in a Dell GX260. The XP on the drive is corrupted or something, and it won't network. I have to grab about 100MB of user data files off of it. So, I was...

When I right-click My Computer and select Explore, I get the desired Windows Explorer 2-pane window with the directory tree on the left and the current folder contents on the right. When I put a shortcut to &quot;explorer.exe&quot; in my Startup, I get some XP-ized form of Windows Explorer that...

I have Slackware 9.0 using Linux kernel 2.4.20. I can't find the SuperProbe program (&quot;find / -name SuperProbe&quot; came up negative) that will help identify my video chip characteristics (which I can see so far is an S3 Trio64V+ 1024KB). Surfing on this topic awhile has brought out the...

How do I get the QuickLaunch function &quot;Show Desktop&quot; to perform as a key-combination function? For example, I have an icon on my desktop that runs this: %windir%\system32\rundll32.exe user32.dll LockWorkStation ... and I use Ctl+Alt+K to run the shortcut. That way, I do a...

We have an XP machine that we configured for a single app, then took it physically off the network (without configuring it as a &quot;Standalone XP&quot;, which is a longer process). The 4 people who use the app have their own logins, setup on the local machine. We setup its accounts while it...

Help! I'm simply unable to boot a newly-built Linux on my Compaq Presario 7232 system (Pentium I, 120Mhz, 48MB RAM). My 1.6GB hard drive partitions currently look like this in physical order: HDA3 Compaq Setup/Diagnostics (4MB) [<1%] HDA1 [Boot Partition] Windows 95 A (FAT16) (128MB) [8%]...

How do I setup network printers so that anyone who logs onto an XP machine has them by default? For some reason, the job I've inherited has been using the &quot;user will call the help desk when they need a printer installed&quot; method. It seems silly that I have to run from machine to...
