i had it a while ago, but i lost it, has anyone got a copy anywhee? it's freeware, so i guess it's not wrong posting here. On hummingbird's site there's 7.1 but i can't get it to work with my socks server. Can anyone help?

Winproxy works too. www.winproxy.com

You can disable that option in norton. I have norton systemworls 2002, and i found an option to disable the tray maging thing, and all my icons came back. I'll check it out right after i get home and i'll post back.

Alec to the rescue all the time, thanks a lot, i appreciate it. You helped me with a lot of stuff on this XP.

where exactly do i find this local policy editor?

i looked all over the creative site but i could only find liveware3 for the live 1024. There's no liveware for the 5.1. Where can i get liveware for 5.1?? As my cd had only the french version

I don't have autocad 2000 here, but i can tell you autocad 2002 works fine.

damn, it didn't work in 2k on my comp

I installed the new final powertoys and messed with the shortcut arrow option in tweakUI. I put it on "None" and since then my icons are only shown in 16 colors!! it's ugly!!!! I can't get it back to 16bits. Can anyone help??? The weird thging is, when i put my desktop in 24 bits colors the icons look normal (but i can't put it in 24 cuz my tv-card doesn't work then). Btw i'm using a SIS 8 MB pci videocrad (i'm waiting for a geforce 3 ti200)

It's really weird, the problem only occurs when using the final tweakUI. When i use the tweakUI that was lreaked with the powertoys some weeks ago all works fine... I'm back to the beta powertoys

Last tuime you helped met out with my filesharing problem by telling me to use "authenticated users" instead of "everyone". But now i made another user on my client-xp box, and he doesn't have access to the drive i shared on the server. i'm gonna try to explain what i'd want to achieve (i search the whole net for info about filesharing, but nowhere could i find the info i need. I've been configuring this way too much with trial and error, hoping it would work, and sometimes did, but now i would really like to understand what i do, so i can reproduce it at a later time): I got a servercomputer running xp pro on which i would like to share a drive for 1 user logging into the client computer. How do i have to configure the permissions on the servercomputer to allow access to only that specific username? (adding users to the perfmissions is waaay weird, it was a lot easier in windows NT 4 ,or is it just me?). The network is configured the right way, both computers can see (ping) eachother, and the printer on the serverxcomputer is shared fine. I just can't get drives and folders shared to specific users (i don't want to use "everyone" and the "authenticated users" option doesn't work anymore) I hope you can help. Thanks.

Thanks a lot for your help!! I finally understand how file sharing works now Everything works like a charm.

Thanks Etrigan!! That did the trick!

I got 2 computers in a small network, both are running windows xp. Simple file sharing is ticked off on both machines. on each machine there is a harddrive that is shared, default is "everyone" has acces, and i leave it that way. The problem is, when trying to acces the drive from the other machine i'm asked for a login/password, and sometimes i just don't have access at all. Can someone give me a step by step explanation to make drives completely accessible (file can be deleted/made/moved/blabla on the network, without having to give a login and pass? I tried enabling guest acces, which solves my problem, but then it seems i can't copy some files from the network drive to my computer (i'm just not allowed). Thanks

Thanks AlecStaar. I configured the access for Authenticated Users. Works perect.

Everytime i finish printing something my hp970cxi prints out an alignment page... I'm using it on windows xp professional, and it's hooked on the USB. Anyone else having this? Is it due to the drivers (i'm using the default winxp drivers) or is my printer broken? Thanks

Go to your q3config.cfg file, and change the value "seta in_mouse" to "-1" It worked for me (i got the same mouse as you). Good luck.

Anyone got commandos 2 to work in xp?? I tried compatibility mode (windows 98) but that didn't help, the game just locks up after the intro movie

Thanks for replying. I made 2 identical accounts on both machines, and i removed the "everyone" from the permissions list, and i added the accoutn i made. But when i try to access that drive from the other computer it just tells me i don't have access to that folder. Only the "everyone" works.

go to the registry: HKEY_USERS --> default --> control panel --> desktop Now in the right windows you should find the key: PaintDesktopVersion Make the value "0"

i got a small network with 2 computers. On my client computer i'm running an ftp server and sometimes i have to give my external IP to friends so they can access my FTP. Is there any way i can see my external IP from the client, instead of running to the server an typing "ipconfig"? thanks

I'm looking for a NAT solution for winxp. Both computers on my net work are running windows xp. In the past i used sygate 4.1 which i liked very much, but it seems the new winxp compatible version 4.2 doesn't like IE... I can do anything (msn messenger, audiogalaxy, imesh,...) but i can't surf the web. IE allways gives an error. Is there any other software available ou there? I tried socks proxy's but i don't like 'em... The built in NAT of winxp i crap too, i can't access some sites and audiogalaxy doesn't work. Can anyoine help? thanks

I love that feature Something i find waaaaaay more annoying is the buttons on internet sites while using the luna skin. The "bitmap" gets streched out and looks crappy.

As there is no working NAT solution out there for winxp yet i made a network suing spoonproxy on the server computer and hummingbird socks on the client. The problem is my ftp server doesn't work right now (it's running on the client). Users can login to the server but are unable to retrieve a list of the files. Can anyone help me with this? Anyone familiar with these programs i'm using? I'fv tried sygate 4.2 (as i was using 4.1 before switching to winxp), but internet explorer doesn't work with it.

I'm not using the built in windows FTP, i'm using serv-u. It was working fine when i was using windows ICS. But the problem with ICS is it doesn't let me access my college's intranet (it's a https address). With the socks proxy it works fine, but then i got that problem with FTP. I wish the new build of sygat worked. When using win2k and sygate 4.1 everything worked great. But now in their 4.2 xp compatible built IE doesn't work at all, all the rest works, icq, msn messenger, audiogalaxy, everything, just not IE. I don't understand... Othe people seem to have that problem alos, so it must be a bug. I've looked everywhere for nat servers: winroute, winproxy,... none are winxp compatible, they give a nice little BSOD after reboot. I guess i'll have to be patient... I tried your 4 tips, but none of them helped. Thanks anyway for replying.
