I dont think the problem is the driver There must be some program that is running that listens for calls on the modem like software that came with the modem Try pressing control+alt+del or look in the startup group or in the registry at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run If you find it delete the registry key or the icon in the startup group Try uninstalling the driver and the modems software and restarting your computer Win2K will find the device and install the driver ONLY and not the modems additional software

A warez rip works perfectly Just enter the path of the CD as c:\ezcd or wherever you downloaded it to Use APCOMPAT.EXE to force Direct CD 3.0 on EZCD Creator CD to install DONT REBOOT then install the upgrade to 3.01 and reboot

@guard doesnt work in Win2K Pitty though, its great for stopping those programs that check with online authentication servers to make sure you arnt using it past its expiration date, like Serv-U FTP

OK this works for Outlook Express, dont know about 2000 Windows 2000 stores mails in c:\documents and settings\username\application data\Identities\{BA10A280-E408-11D3-85AF-9217A0E14E40}\Microsoft\Outlook Express Win 98 stores it in c:\windows\Identities\{BA10A280-E408-11D3-85AF-9217A0E14E40}\Microsoft\Outlook Express To fix this in Win2000 start Outlook goto tools/options maintenance tab click the store folder button write down the location listed Now go to Win98 same thing as above but change the location to the same as Win2000 and all should work fine

Actually there is a way if the line is busy I cant think of the name of it but I remember coming accross a program+hardware package that will recognise the beep on the line when call waiting is on of the incoming call and the software will pause the net connection and send the fax connection to the fax machine or fax/data software on the PC and resume the internet connection when the fax is finished

I D/l the Win2K drivers and TV app The drivers work but the TV app crashes It works with a german program called More TV but that does not have a function to capture to an AVI file Is there any program shareware or freeware that will both work on Windows 2000 & be able to capture to an AVI or ASF file? Please email reply to mail@ericmarques.net

I had that problem IE5 will NOT allow reinstallation of existing programs so you must go to control panel then add remove programs Look for Outlook Express 5 and uninstall it You will NOT loose any emails or settings If it doesnt uninstall goto c:\program files and delete its directory Then go to your IE5 CD and reinstall outlook express

Today I installed CD Copier Gamers Edition hoping to play my favourite game and rebooted an got an error Of course didnt boot in safe mode either second time this week to reinstall W2K This program doesnt even warn of incompatibility. IMSI's website @ http://www.imsisoft.com/ is not at all helpful and does NOT say that its not W2K compatible Does anyone have a patch or upgrade or something to make this work??? --------------- Eric Marques mail@ericmarques.net

Does the Win2K bootdisk allow read/write to NTFS?

Last time I installed W2K I converted my drive to NTFS and then installed PC Anywhere 9.0 and W2K refused to start even in safe mode I booted with a win98 boot disk and I could not access my NTFS drive and had to re partition loosing everything What I want to ask is if there is any program that can convert an NTFS drive to FAT32 in MS DOS mode that I can copy onto a CD just in case ---------- Eric Marques mail@ericmarques.net

Does anyone know the file(s) that Windows 2000 stores its registry Like the system.dat and user.dat in Win98 --------------- Eric Marques mail@ericmarques.net [This message has been edited by eric-marques-net (edited 19 April 2000).]

I have just installed Windows 2000 How do I remove the "Windows 2000 Professional Build 2195" from my desktop I know this is in the registry somewhere but I cant find it If anyone knows please email me at ericmarques@email.com

I got Tweak UI for Windows 98 and it done the trick I came accross that key PaintDesktopVersion but it was set to 0 so I ignored it thinking it was the wrong key. Anyway everything works now. Thanks everybody -------------- Eric Marques
