    Myst And Windows 2000...

    Myst for Windows 95?

    Can the provider see Cable Modem connection sharing?

    Wouldn't a caching/proxy server such as ISA be able to circumvent that? All port 80 requests would be forwarded to a single IP, the ISA server...

    SafeDisc 2 Compatible CD Recorders

    Interesting. Last I had heard, some Lite-On drives with German firmware could copy most SafeDisc2 games, but to be honest, you're better off buying the game.

    Best "Free" Popup killers? HELP!!!

    Heh, I've been using Phoenix for 3 or 4 months, and I love it. I only use IE now for MSFT sites (Windows Update, etc.). I personally like to kill popups, ads, etc. with the browser, rather than a third party utility. On a sidenote, I stumbled across a neat .css for Phoenix (presumably Mozilla, too) that removes some, if not most, banner ads. If anyone is interested, I can post the contents here.

    Ahe of Mythology or C & C Generals:Which is better?

    Personally, I would recommend AOM, but I haven't played Generals.

    win2k compatibility mode

    You can register slayerui.dll, that will provide a compatibility tab on your shortcuts. Read more information at the MSKB, article Q279792.

    P4 lost its heat spreader, what do I do?

    Thanks for the pictures.. Really quite interesting. As suggested, I would try to get in touch with an Intel rep from your region. Perhaps even a sales rep would be a good place to start. Frequently, on weekends, I see an Intel rep at stores such as Circuit City and Best Buy, if you don't see one, perhaps a drone working there would know how you could get in touch with one.

    Microsoft has acquired connectix virtual PC.

    According to the article on Slashdot, this was done so Microsoft could enter the server consolidation market.

    Sweet, thanks!

    P4 lost its heat spreader, what do I do?

    I'd like to see that, any chance you can post a picture? As Bursar said, it would probably be fine to mount the HSF directly on the core, but one thing to be somewhat concerned about would be any gaps. The stock HSF is machined to allow for the heat spreader thickness, so there may be less than optimal contact.

    MCSE .NET Requirements

    BladeRunner, that'd be a great idea. Unfortunately, I don't think it will happen any time soon.

    MCSE .NET Requirements

    It is a problem, when you have paper techs who have no idea how to troubleshoot, or do much of anything that they don't recall from their 'boot camp'.
  15. Nothing personal, Felix, but I have seen many discussions quicky go downhill when those topics are brought up.

    Which Mouse Do YOU Have?

    I have Microsoft® Wheel Mouse Optical. Had it about a year, works great, inexpensive, too. I personally would stay away from wireless, as I personally don't care for them. I hear the new Microsoft 'Blue' line is very nice though.

    About Avatars

    Quote: One of the good things with this forum is that there were never any avatars here. And mmore important, no grafic sigs either, which makes it even better. Indeed, graphic sigs seem to be rather like (pardon the term) pissing contests... Who can have a bigger, flashier, etc...

    No video driver tweaking in .Net 2003?

    You could try this registry tweak... Code: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\NVTweak]"CoolBits"=dword:00000003

    W2k CD with integrated IE6?

    I'm pretty sure that I read somewhere that with SP3 and newer, there would only be hotfixes for IE 5.01... I don't recall where I read this, can someone confirm or deny? Perhaps it was in the SP4 release notes... That would make sense as 2000 came with IE 5.01.

    XP recovery threat !?

    One part of securing a system is to change the BIOS boot order to HDD first, and add a strong BIOS setup password... That would prevent against this.

    C&C Generals resolution problems.

    Good deal, so I'm sure it looks much better at the correct resolution? Thanks for letting us know the fix.

    Laptop XP Problem

    I just noticed something... Your post here indicates that you're having problem with another machine, too... A desktop, I suspect. This got me thinking... I am curious as to how 'clean' the incoming power is to your location... Do you have UPS(s) that the PCs are connected to? Maybe someone who reads this is an EE and can verify this, but I suspect that RAM is one of the first things to go when there are brownouts/dirty power. At any rate, I would test the RAM on the other PC as well. Perhaps the RAM in both machines is fine, but by testing them it's ruled out as a point of failure... Anyone have thoughts or comments on that thoery?
