USB 3com Homeconnect webcam installation failure- Not recognized
peterh replied to asdfg's topic in Hardware
How is it connected to the system. Front port, back port, a USB Hub? Some devices require more power than others, so where you plug it may make a difference. AFAIK, Firewalls, only affect Dial up or LAN connections. It should not affect USB connections. Turn it back on. -
As it says, a hardware failure, could be memory, motherboard or anything else. Take it to a computer repair shop for diagnosis/repair.
-
In IE, option Tools, Internet Options, Advanced and tick 'Disable Script Debugging' to prevent these errors.

Have you tried running it under W2K Compatibility mode? Create a shortcut to game, open properties of game, click on Compatibility (if its not shown, register slayerui.dll) and select Windows 98. Try it again.

why does my computer freeze up when I use either one of my dvd drives
peterh replied to menu23's topic in Hardware
How are the DVD drives configured. Are they on a seperate IDE channel from the Hard disk? What mode are they configured? PIO or DMA? DMA is best. -
Building a Web Server on XP Professional
peterh replied to mike76's topic in Customization & Tweaking
1. Install IIS from Add/Remove Programs, Add/REmove Windows Components, and tick Internet Information Services (IIS). Insert CD if asked. 2. It will create a folder called C:\Inetpub and C:\Inetpub\wwwroot. 3. You can create your html pages and place them in wwwroot (or in subfolders if you wish) 4. Access web server locally via http://localhost/ -
Some ActiveX components are ESSENTIAL to the operating system and some are downloadable and usable on the web eg Flash, Shockwave, Java etc. to use with IE. DO NOT delete files willy nilly as you may end up with a broken system. Leave them alone!

Its just a plain text file. Delete it if its causing problems. Create a new blank one, if necessary.

What video card do you have? Do you have sound card drivers installed? More info please.
-
It probably is. See this about STOP messages website: http://aumha.org/win5/kbestop.htm

Fresh install with new hard drive hangs !
peterh replied to 1968neil's topic in Everything New Technology
It might be due to your ancient Voodoo card. Try up[censored] that card to something more recent e.g ATI Radeon, Nvidea card... -
WIN ME, The device manager displays 96Mb instead of 128 Mb RAM!
peterh replied to Philip's topic in Legacy OS
Does you PC have built in graphics card, it may have been activated and used upto 32MB to store graphics info from main memory. If you have a AGP card, you can turn off the built in card from bios. -
Some of the items are stored in registry. The easiest place is to create a shortcut in the Send To list. This list contains shortcuts from your profile ie. c:\documents and settings\<username>\SendTo Useful shortcuts include Notepad, Wordpad, drive and folder shortcuts.

Predictive Text Selecting - Turning this "feature" off
peterh replied to Durt's topic in Customization & Tweaking
In which application? Notepad, Wordpad, Word, command line? More info required. -
Have you added trusted networks to ZA to allow things like SMB (File and Print Sharing) through? Just add your LAN to trusted networks to get round it. See Traffic Zones section. (p61 on ZA manual).
-
Which operating system are you using? 98/NT4/2000/XP? Windows NT4 is not very good with multimedia, I suggest upgrading. Check ATI web site for FAQ: http://www.atitech.com/
-
There are two ways: a) Hardware profiles (I assume you made a copy of last one first). See System control panel Last Known Good Configuration when you boot up.
-
Maybe the version of DI is too old for Win NT/2000!!! Try latest v5 or 2000 of DI.
-
Right click Desktop (a blank area), select Properties, then select Settings, Advanced and extra settings are there. Some cards, like ATI/Nvidea extend the Display control panel with their own features, so you need it installed.
-
Instead of installing select a New install, and specify c:\winnt as the location (rather than c:\windows), the files should still be visible and available afterwards. Obviously none of the programs or settings from 98 would apply but at least its usable...

is there any system file checked (SFC) in windows 2000 and how can i recover the
peterh replied to vamshikrishnareddy's topic in Customization & Tweaking
SFC is available on Win 2000 but not MSCONFIG like 98/XP. Get a replacement from: http://www.greatis.com/regrun3msconfig.htm -
Open Device Manager and delete the SCSI device or adapter from the device list.
