He also has my tcp/ip properties locked and I can't undate them to log in to my dial up from the road. <br/><br/>A little help would be very very cool on what switch to flip... <br/><br/>I'm logged in as as an admin <br/><br/><br/>Did you get a WIndows CD to reinstall, if needed? Is he available to "fix it"? What version of Windows?<br/><br/>(You will need a real Windows CD eventually, you know.)I'm trying to track down the cd... <br/><br/>Its windows 2000 service pack 4. I hads to install all the service packs. Its a government <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/surplus-656730" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SURPLUS">SURPLUS</a> PC so it came with a wiped hard drive that was reformated and win 2000 reinstalled. <br/><br/>All was well until I tried to install a usb network card. It must of changed a setting. Very select stuff I want to access such as ppp settings and DNS settings are locked. <br/><br/><br/>Any other solutions. <br/><br/>Oh yeah its a P3 600 Compaq Armada e5000. I'd keep hunting a Win2KCD as you can do a non-destructive rebuild keeping all your data...<br/>But in the meantime here is the default listing of default services and their settings...<br/><br/><a href="http://www.informit.com/articles/article.asp?p=25176&seqNum=3&rl=1">Here</a><br/><br/>patio 8-)Got the CD from the guy I got the laptop from, did thje rebuild but no luck its still locked...<br/><br/><br/>TCP/IP properies not accessable. <br/><br/>Any ideas? If you did a clean re-install of the OS this shouldn't be happening.<br/>All Admin stuff goes out the window when this is done.<br/>How did you <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/proceed-592932" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PROCEED">PROCEED</a> with this re-install ? ? ?<a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/thanks-665909" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about THANKS">THANKS</a> I finally got it working after 2-3 reboots and deleting the old dialers...<br/><br/><br/>Now I'm battling USB network cards... I guess the win sp 4 drivers don't get alone with the D LInk USB network card. Error code 31? I hate that Yellow sign beside the device manager! <br/><br/>Any idea if there is a patch to help with thisQuote</p><blockquote>Thanks I finally got it working after 2-3 reboots and deleting the old dialers...<br/><br/><br/>Now I'm battling USB network cards...

Solve : Can't enter hard drive partition size? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>I need to divide my hard drive into <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/two-241629" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about TWO">TWO</a> partitions and install Windows 2000 Pro in both partitions. The <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/computer-243299" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about COMPUTER">COMPUTER</a> is an HP with a 30 GB hard drive and a sticker on the front proclaiming it "designed for Windows 2000 Pro / Windows Me." It originally had W Me on it. I first tried an upgrade install, and that seemed to work ok, but I then learned that Disk Management couldn't <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/alter-373421" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ALTER">ALTER</a> the size of the partition containing Windows 2000. I've done three clean installs since. I reach a screen that asks me what size the new partition should be, but nothing on the keyboard will alter the size shown on the screen. The result is that Windows 2000 makes its own partition which takes up almost all of the hard drive. How can I get it to follow instructions?I think you need to format and partition into 2 partitions, then use win2000 cd to install.<br/><br/>1) Format harddisk.<br/>2) Use win2000 or win98 boot disk, run <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/fdisk-985697" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FDISK">FDISK</a>.<br/>3) In fdisk, I think there's an option to set how <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/big-896707" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about BIG">BIG</a> is your partition.

My concern is that I may have to enter into the new Windows Approval system (WPA I think it is called) where you need to get an approval number to authenticate the software.

Solve : Windows98 upgrade to 2KPro? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>Upgraded on Pentium 100 machine that lists hard drive 0 (854MB) and hard drive 1 (811 MB). Before was showing as C: and D: . Formatted C: . Now shows only C: at 854 MB. Tried Partition Manager - No help. I've created a monster of a mess on a machine that doesn't belong to me. Please tell me how to fix!! :-/ Also, in the process I lost the internet connection. Control panel shows only "Make new connection" icon. Wired to Road Runner.Did you format hard drive 1? I believe 98 and 2000 use different filing systems - 98 uses the FAT32 system (or FAT16, but you'd have to be a bit thick to stick with that!) and 2000 uses NTFS.format C: from Command Prompt. D: not recognized by format command. Don't remember some attempts following and then after installing Win2K I used both the CD to Repair Installation and then the Win2K boot disks.

A simple cleck on the desktop will still the drive for a minute or so, but it soon cranks up again. A related problem may be that the disk check after a faulty reboot is very slow, and scandisk takes forever as it continually <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/restarts-2990839" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about RESTARTS">RESTARTS</a> with the message that the drive's contents have changed.<br/><br/>Clearly something is running that should not be -- as is confirmed by the system resource meter which spikes to 100% use of memory when the drive is running. But what?<br/><br/>How do I identify this pest and quash it?Hi, if you think this is a nasty have you tried scanning with an AV, Adaware and Spybot s&d? If these come up clean try process explorer from <a href="http://www.sysinternals.com">www.sysinternals.com</a> this should give the process a name.<br/><br/>Online scan:<br/><a href="http://housecall.trendmicro.com/">http://housecall.trendmicro.com/</a><br/><br/>Adaware:<br/><a href="http://www.majorgeeks.com">www.majorgeeks.com</a><br/><br/>Spybot s&d:<br/><a href="https://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html">www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html</a><br/><br/>Derek.<br/>Well, I know from personal experience how BAD Windows ME really is. In my opinion, Windows ME never should have been released, becuase it has a LOT of errors. (That's why I upgraded to XP). As for your problem with memory, have you checked for viruses and spyware lately? Also, who is your computer manufacturer?<br/><br/>[glb]Flame[/glb]how can you condem the best o/s ever i have used winme for four years with hardly any problems of which were linked to nav (now dumped?(:_:)< anway first of all is>your screensaver for one>>alter it to run fourteen mins that should ample.. ......type msconfig in the run box and click the strat-up folder now scroll down the list and untick the programs that will be loaded at start-up.......and defrag you mean....and use the disk-clean up program....to gain more diskspace dump themes 31mbs......<a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/thanks-665909" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about THANKS">THANKS</a> Derek & Flame<br/><br/>Problem now solved but via an indirect route.

Problem still persisted. Then ran Process Explorer, which identified that some sort of indexing was going on complements of a file named mosearch.exe. This turns out to be the MS Office search service. <br/><br/>A Google search on the file name took me to CastleCops, where I found: "Mosearch.exe--Fast Search in Office XP - similar to the new revision of the Find Fast feature in Office 2000. Fast Search uses the Indexing Services in Office XP to create a catalog of Office files on your computer's hard disk. As with Find Fast - a waste of resources."<br/><br/>I couldn't agree more!<br/><br/>I have now disabled the function & the laptop no longer churns away all the time.<br/><br/>Yes, ME is flaky, but how can Microsoft build in something like this that not only wastes resources but also interferes so much with scandisk and defragging???<br/><br/>I'll start a new posting for my remaining WinME hassles.<br/>Hi, glad you've solved this problem <br/><br/>I use Windows ME as well, I have very few problems with it. (And no problems at all with Office 2000 and Fast Find; Fast Find was never installed )<br/><br/>Derek.Nice job Mandebvu! I'm glad to see what this forum has had SOME influence on you!

Help please!!<br/><br/>I had windows 2000, had this issue.<br/>now have a clean install of XP pro, still same issue. perhaps there is some bitmap encoder upgrade i need?(I think the video capture card is in bitmap mode. the scanner scanns in tiffs or something. both have identical issue.<br/> <br/>it seems when the file reaches a certain size, the colors are dropped.<br/><br/>I have tried printing the picture to eliminate the video card and it comes out blue and white also.<br/><br/>some other colors are present in the blue and white like orange. but the peoples faces, etc are a shade of blue.<br/><br/>searched all over. cant find the answer.<br/>you may also e-mail me at <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection">[emailprotected]</a><br/><br/>Thanks<br/>MarkWhat scanner and what software is used....i would blame the scanner /software not the o/s...as much i would like to..!!well, the reason i cant blame the scanner is, the video capture card has exactly the same trouble and has its own driver and software.<br/><br/>but scanner is a optic pro 4830p scanner, and the original driver, updated from thier site.<br/><br/>the video card is a conexant btcap videocapture/tuner card, whitch also provides a good picture, until you increase the resolution (on the card, not the monitor)<br/>then it goes bluewhite like a grayscale, but blue.<br/><br/>had the same sacnner on windown 98, and never had an issue.<br/><br/>just got the video card last year, but if remember right, i had a hauppage win tv card befor it, and it did the same.<br/>at high res. <br/><br/>whats the deal?<br/>Have you updated all your drivers related to videocard, videocapture card and scanner with original drivers?well not within the last year, I will try to locate some, but windows xp doesnt say there is a newer one out, but maybe they just havent notified the mother ship about it.<br/>good idea, will <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/see-630247" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SEE">SEE</a> what turns up on drivers, maybe that is it, calling on a 16 bit driver to produce a 32 bit result?<br/>hmmmm<br/><br/>wonder if that compatibility wizard in xp would help either?<br/><br/>hmmmm. good ideas guys.<br/><br/>if i find an answer i will post it, if no, keep in mind if you hear a fix for this.<br/><br/>beavisQuote</p><blockquote>but windows xp doesnt say there is a newer one out, but maybe they just havent notified the mother ship about it. </blockquote><br/><br/>Donot use Windows XP drivers.

Solve : Networking A Win2000 machine to a Win XP machine? |

However I also want to network the XP machine to it via a cable (So I can play LANs in my room ).<br/><br/>I've tried many ways in which to get the two computers to reconise each other but nothing I've done has worked. I set up the correct IP's (I think) which normally works between two 2000 machines, and I have router inbetween them both! Why aren't they reconising eachother!?<br/><br/>PS: They both reconise there is a LAN connection but can't ping or see eachother First off, I don't know where you FOUND the machine, but I can't help but think that someone would dump off a computer somewhere becuase they were having problems with it. (There must be a reason that someone <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/left-236578" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about LEFT">LEFT</a> it).

Just install XP on the other computer if you can get a hold of an XP disk...<br/><br/>[glb]Flame[/glb]First check that they are in the same workgroup<br/>What ip addressess have you got on the machines and the router?<br/>What subnet masks?<br/><br/>Here is a link to some <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/useful-1441152" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about USEFUL">USEFUL</a> information about networks:<br/><br/><a href="http://www.rcmillar.netfirms.com/subpages/Links.htm#Networks">http://www.rcmillar.netfirms.com/subpages/Links.htm#Networks</a>Have you tried the networking wizard?<br/>Do you have any firewalls active?<br/>The router could be faulty?Firstly I'd like to say thanks for the replies! <br/><br/>@Flame: I didnt just 'find' it in the the street lol... no no no, it was one of my dad's old ones, but he doesnt need it anymore... So I have commendeered it.<br/><br/>As for the different OS's well I dont really want to format my 2000 machine (let alone not having an XP cd) as it has alot of stuff on it, and i only just formatted recently... I also want to keep the XP OS on the other machine, as its usful for playing some of my older games!<br/><br/>@Robertmiller: I have set all the workgroups in the house to HOME.
