Solve : GDI drawing (Windows Internals)? |
| Answer» <html><body><br/>Hello<br/><br/>I'm sure most of you are familiar with the following Windows symptoms/bugs:<br/><br/>- when your CPU is stressed and you try to drag a window around (let's say notepad),<br/> the GDI drawing system draws that window in each position, but,<br/> it doesn't erase the previous window & position.<br/><br/>- when you close a particular program, which was previously in a non-responding state,<br/> a rectangle with the dimensions of this program is left out, but with the background<br/> of your current background<br/><br/>- when you printscreen a non-video overlay video and you try to paste it in paint,<br/> then drag the image around, the video will appear to stay stationary like some <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/sort-238033" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SORT">SORT</a> of <br/> image you are sliding under a poster frame<br/><br/><br/>I would like to have all these symptoms explained; why Windows behaves like this,<br/>what happens and why it's happening (no no, it's not homework, just nerdy curiosity).<br/><br/>Thanks<br/>Is everyone ignoring me or something?It's Summer...sorry no none has responded yet...<br/><br/>However in the meantime it would be <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/helpful-479747" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about HELPFUL">HELPFUL</a> to posta as many specs on the machine you can dig up ...when this started and info on whatever protection apps you are currently running...<br/><br/>BTW Welcome Aboard !just to let you know- I'm writing a response to this. It's the very nature of the messagepump system.<br/><br/><br/>Every windows application that has windows has a messagepump. it looks something like this:<br/>Code: <a>[Select]</a> MSG msg;<br/> while(GetMessage(&msg, hwnd, 0, 0))<br/> {<br/> TranslateMessage(&msg);<br/> DispatchMessage(&msg);<br/><br/> <br/><br/> // do stuff<br/><br/> }<br/>Basically, GetMessage() retrieves the next message that appears on the queue- if there are no messages (things like WM_MOUSEMOVE,WM_LBUTTONDOWN, WM_KEYDOWN, WM_MOVE, WM_SIZE, and many many others) then the messagepump thread goes to sleep until their is.<br/><br/>When everything is running smoothly- the pump is easily able to keep up with the messages that are being dispatched. but when an application is getting less CPU time then optimal, messages build up in the queue.<br/><br/>Namely, with regard to your window dragging behaviour, the WM_PAINT message. Since the CPU is stressed, and your sending dozens of WM_MOVE messages (by moving the window), which in the default processing (DefaultWindowProc, which most window handlers will call to perform default handling aside from their special handling) is handled by invalidating the window rectangle and posting a WM_PAINT message., which is added to the queue.<br/><br/>under normal circumstances, the WM_PAINT is usually acquired by the messagepump before too many messages build up, and it is serviced and the painting is performed. When the message thread is not getting enough timeslices, though, the queue builds up, and those WM_PAINT messages go unnoticed.<br/><br/>But the InvalidateRect() call performed earlier does not- it invalidates the window and essentially causes the entire thing to clear to the background color of the window.<br/><br/>Note that this doesn't apply just to windows, but also to commandbuttons and textboxes and so forth, all of which are technically windows with their own window procedures. All the window procedures in an application are usually managed by a single messagepump, which accepts all the messages windows sends the application and dispatches them to the appropriate window procedures. Additionally, when you drag a window around, windows not only has to send the WM_PAINT message to the window you moved (and invalidate it's entire rectangle to force redrawing of the entire thing) but it also has to invalidate the area of the windows behind it that you are "revealing"- including the desktop. depending on how many windows are behind the window you are moving, it can be a lot. And when your system is already stressed by, say a background process, even these actions can be sluggish. The results aren't always the same- all of the "symptoms" you specified are all the result of the messagepump getting an inadequate amount of CPU time, or simply not enough CPU time to handle the messages.<br/><br/>The second one, re the program being closed, is really a application specific thing. Most programs are closed when they send all their windows the WM_CLOSE message. between the WM_CLOSE message and the WM_DESTROY message (which is sent after the window is completely destroyed) the child windows of the window are also closed and destroyed. And, of course, the windows behind it all recieve a WM_PAINT message to paint any areas that the now gone window were covering.<br/>It is the latter point that is important. If that application is having trouble keeping up or is otherwise occupied (thereby meaning that it's messagepump isn't pumping) then the WM_PAINT will be added to the queue, but not serviced (handled). therefore, it won't paint- therefore, the image left by the now destroyed window will not be painted. Sometimes other windows that were also covered will be running fine and perfectly able to handle the message, so you only get one window that doesn't see mto be painting. <br/><br/>You may be wondering, how if one application can't handle it's messages, how other programs can handle them perfectly fine and with no problems. This is both a result of the design of the "problem" application as well as the design of the pre-emtive multi-tasking environment that windows is. You see, back in the day, Windows wasn't pre-emptive- it was cooperative. What this means is that all the programs worked as a big happy family, yield()ing control to one another, they all trusted each other intrinsically, like the fool does the knave. Unfortunately, because some programmers are morons, this didn't always work out so well. See, when some people were writing a program, they would sometimes only think of themselves. This was selfish obviously. They wouldn't yield control very often, if at all. So no other programs could run. (this was windows 3.1... only way to stop a runaway process was with Control+Alt+Del, and that usually left things pretty unstable). There was "task management" in the form of "how much CPU time do DOS programs get compared to windows programs" but you didn't have anything like process priority like we do now.<br/><br/>Anyway, now, cooperative multitasking is no longer "optional" all programs are forced to do so, resistance is futile measured in ohms. The big Word processor is treated no differently then the little dinky address program you have- Unless want it to. no longer can the capitalist word processor grow fat on the extra CPU cycles of the other programs! There was a revolution! Now, with the pre-emptive multitasking, Windows only gives each thread a certain amount of time to run before it <em>preemptively</em> (thus the name) says "OK! THAT'S IT! SHARE!" and switches to another thread/program. basically when you encounter this CPU-based issue with a single program, it's usually monopolizing the entire CPU, right? But at the same time, it isn't! because of the way the task scheduler works, while the troubled program is having trouble keeping up with it's messages (probably because it's doing something else, like repaginating a document, compiling or whatever), the other programs aren't having those problems- so when the task scheduler switches to them, and they have waiting messages, they can check them. If they don't (which is usually the case) they just say "don't bother me, I'm sleeping zzz" and the task scheduler says "FINE! NO DINNER FOR YOU!" (the task scheduler has an anger problem) and then gives that timeslice to another needy program, usually the one who is trying to repaginate the document.<br/><br/>Most of your other symptoms are merely "artifacts" from one or several programs being able to process certain amounts of their messages, and the various interactions between the programs based on the order that they end up being handled. The "box <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/effect-246841" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about EFFECT">EFFECT</a>" when you close a program (as I finally come back to address the question) is usually the result of the client area of the window being invalidated- and then the desktop, or whatever programs are behind it, paints that rectangle, making it "look" like a clear frame. Eventually, when the window is truly destroyed windows will "finish" the destruction by invalidating the entire window rectangle, thus causing the rest of the "frame" to be written over.<br/><br/>I'm not sure what you mean with the last question/note, (regarding printscreen, overlay videos, etc) but I imagine it's related to what I've already noted here.<br/><br/><br/>As a final note, the entire graphics <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/architecture-68" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about ARCHITECTURE">ARCHITECTURE</a> was completely overhauled with Aero in Vista and 7; programs still write to what they think are paint over invalidated rectangles and to device contexts, but what they are actually doing is paint onto a surface. That surface is them composited on the screen with the various other surfaces that make up the other windows using Direct3d. This eliminates of the issues you mentioned- if a program is not responding, for example, it's client area isn't simply not painted, since really the program has simply stopped painting to the surface- it doesn't have direct access to screen elements like a non-aero program would. In this case the program is simply lightened and you get the "not responding" prompt. Without aero enabled, though, it's the same as before- since technically when you are using Aero Basic (Vista/7 Basic) you are really using a modified version of the Luna theme engine that XP used.<br/><br/>Lastly: that was all from memory so it might be inaccurate or even *gasp* wrong; I'm rather certain of most of it, though.<br/>Thank you for your truly excellent reply, BC.<br/>That was very well explained.<br/>Some of it was hilarious, lol.<br/><br/>As for the last question that you didn't fully understand, try reproducing it to see what I mean:<br/><br/>- Open up a (DVD) video<br/>- Printscreen it<br/>- Keep the movie near-fullscreen (with the borders maybe)<br/>- Paste in ms paint<br/>- Now drag the 'image' around<br/><br/>You will see that it seems you didn't printscreen at all but that you are moving <br/>a rectangle around in the 'movie poster'.<br/>This is a concept especially familiar in game design,<br/>when you 'slide things under a frame so they appear to be moving'.<br/><br/>Thanks.<br/>Thanks, I managed to get that to do so in a VM.<br/><br/>At first, I couldn't figure out what was going on. but once I closed everything down (except paint) it made sense.<br/><br/>If you do so yourself, you'll notice that the area that was "transparent" was a specific colour- (a very close to but not quite black, in my case). the copy-paste operation didn't actually copy the image of the DVD, but rather a "background colour" that was being used by directshow to know how to mask it's output.<br/><br/>First- whenever you play a DVD or most video, it's on top of the only reason it ever clips properly is because the media program takes care of it- that is, it's not "automatic" like it is with things like textboxes and buttons and so forth. <br/><br/>Most media programs use a method whereby they tell Directshow (or whichever video API) "ok, you can use this window to display your video" and it also specifies a "mask" colour- which is to say, "you can display your video on this window, and in this particular rectangle of it, but only where I use this particular colour" The colour used isn't really that important, what's important is that now any window that overlaps it that contains that colour will essentially become transparent where it uses that colour. however, solid areas of a very very near black colour are nearly unlikely, often times either that or a very near magenta or other "very close to a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/defined-947013" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about DEFINED">DEFINED</a> colour but a few teensy bits off" is chosen for the mask colour.<br/><br/>When you copy and paste, you are copying and pasting, not an image of the DVD, but rather the colour area that the window has to tell the Video API where to draw it's video- so, when that window and colour is over top of your media player, directshow (or whatever), since it only looks at the entire screen and not at particular windows or areas, sees that colour in the rectangle the media program specified and draws in it. This is why the rest of the program seems unaffected- it's not the mask colour, so directshow leaves it be.<br/><br/><br/></body></html> | |

Solve : My computer has Multiple Personality Disorder? |
| Answer» <html><body><br/>Yes, evidently my computer is suffering from multiple personality disorder, and the condition is becoming increasingly serious--within a week or two I may not be able to access the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/internet-14325" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about INTERNET">INTERNET</a> at all.<br/><br/>What I mean to convey by the term "multiple personality disorder" is that my computer has episodes where it is <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/simultaneously-2256499" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SIMULTANEOUSLY">SIMULTANEOUSLY</a> displaying two different "personalities"--online mode and offline mode--and each personality has no awareness of the other. But the result is that I cannot get online when the condition flares up.<br/><br/>It began about a month ago, and has been occurring with increasing frequency ever since. Randomly, when I start my computer, turn on my DSL modem, and then open a browser, I will not be <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/connected-929389" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about CONNECTED">CONNECTED</a> to my home page or any other web page I try to access. (Incidentally, my DSL connection has performed perfectly throughout all this, the three green lights always on,etc.--in my careful experiments to isolate the cause, it has been proved never to have been a factor.) And not only does the browser (whichever one I try) not connect me, but what's very clear, and very important, is that the browser is not even attempting to connect--instead of trying for a while and then reporting failure, the instant I click on a bookmark it will say "Done" while leaving me with a blank screen. (This is Firefox's <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/way-246442" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about WAY">WAY</a> of dealing with it. If I use Chrome, it instantly shows a blank screen with the words "Web page not available". All three of my browsers (Internet Explorer too) fail to connect me to a web page during these episodes, though each expresses the failure differently.)<br/><br/><br/>But the element that I need to drive home is the instantaneous nature of the reported failure--this is not the typical case of access problems where the computer tries for 20 or 30 seconds to connect to a web page, but ultimately reports that it cannot. Less than a nanosecond after I click on a favorite or a web address, Firefox will report "Done" with a blank screeen or Chrome will report "Web page not available" with an otherwise blank screen. It's exactly as though I'm in offline mode, even though when I click on "File", "Work offline" is unchecked. (My attempts to remedy the problem by checking and unchecking "Work offline" have failed. Similarly, logging off but not restarting my computer does nothing. Manipulating my DSL modem has no effect. Only restarting my computer has worked, but it's just a matter of time when that too will fail because all restarting does is let me "roll the dice" again--at this point I have about a 1/3 chance of an episode occurring when I turn on the computer. A month ago, the chance was about 1 in 15, two weeks ago 1 in 7 or 8, now it's 1 in 3. Incidentally, these episodes never occur in the middle of a session, only when I turn my computer on--once I have internet access, I continue to have it until I turn off my computer.<br/><br/>So, to summarize--at present, about 1 in 3 times when I turn on my computer, I cannot access the internet with any browser, and they all fail to connect WITHOUT EVEN TRYING, exactly as though I'm in Offline Mode-- but I'm not (or, more accurately, I haven't put it in offline mode, and there's no official indication I am in it, but I believe one "personality" of my computer IS in offline mode. Meanwhile, the computer's other "personality" doesn't think I'm in Offline Mode, but believes that for some <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/aeuroereason-239555" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about REASON">REASON</a> the "web page is not available" (Chrome) or that it's actually connected to the web page even though the screen is blank (Firefox).<br/><br/>I'm desperate at this point, because the future is clear-- and ominous. 1 in 3 will soon be 1 in 2, then 1 in 1. I posted to the Microsoft Community website with this problem, and though I got many views, I received no replies. Then I tried Geeks to Go--again, many views, no replies. Can this problem really be so unique that NOBODY HAS A CLUE?<br/><br/>I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop, purchased Dec. 2006 if that is relevant, with Windows XP.May be worth the effort to check system restore. If you have a restore point more than a month old (before this problem started based on your post), I'd give that a whirl. If the problem goes away - good for you. Then, if you're curious enough, you may want to begin redoing, in sequence, one at a time, each of the changes associated with restore points after the one you just reverted to. That might identify the culprit, and suggest some type of corrective action.</body></html> | |

Solve : Windows XP licence issues? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>Hi there,<br/><br/>I'm solving a problem for a friend at the moment as she had a major virus attack on her <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/pc-590329" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PC">PC</a>. It was that bad, that we have had to <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/wipe-744142" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about WIPE">WIPE</a> the HDD completely using Darik's Boot & Nuke. It was previously running XP and as far as I know, she has an XP retail disc that was installed on it before the wipe. We are now trying to install the XP CD from scratch, which is fine, but we are now getting notifications of WGA issues. The CD is legit, but I couldn't uninstall what was previously on the computer/deactivate the licence as we couldn't boot into Windows full stop. What are the fixes for this - she doesn't want to buy a new CD and obviously, she owns the licence.<br/><br/>Thanks<br/>Are you using her product key? If not, that's why.<br/><br/>If you are using her product key, is it an OEM product key (i.e.: a sticker on her computer)? If so, are you using OEM media? If not, that's why. OEM installs require OEM source files/media. Retail installs require retail source files/media. Volume license installs require volume license files/media. Period.<br/><br/>If so, then you'll need to contact Microsoft and explain what happened so they can do their thing to correct it. <br/><br/>The only other thing you can do is to restore from a previous image of her PC and use a utility to retrieve her old product key (did you image it before wiping it? Acronis and Ghost are two good options for this. If not, consider this a lesson learned, as there's ALWAYS something missing from a new install that people will raise a stink about).<br/><br/>Other than that, assistance from us regarding licensing issues cannot get to the point where the assistance can be used for piracy, no matter how legitimate the person's intentions are. We don't need the trouble from Microsoft...<br/>Thanks for your help. She lives miles away so I'm helping her via msn. The cd that we are using has a product key sticker on the back, but not on the pc itself (as I guess it was a custom pc - it is not branded). Unfortunately, we have wiped everything on the HDD, so it is not possible to recover the product key that was used before.<br/><br/>Any further advice please and/or could you give me the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/phone-25638" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PHONE">PHONE</a> number to contact microsoft?<br/><br/>Thanks againTypically, if a WGA prompt <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/triggers-16645" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about TRIGGERS">TRIGGERS</a>, there's an option to click on to contact Microsoft. <br/><br/>However, I'm thinking the odds don't look good in your (or your friend's) favor. I'm thinking the custom build PC had a pirated copy of Windows installed on it in the first place. Otherwise, she would have been given the installation media and/or the certificate of authenticity with the product key on it. However, it's not too farfetched if she had installation media in the past and lost it...<br/><br/>Now if the media you are using has only been installed on her PC (or the previous PC that it was installed on is no longer in commission), then you can go through the "Activate Windows" wizard on her computer. Once it fails, it will give an option to activate by phone. Click that option and <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/call-412416" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about CALL">CALL</a> that number. The automated system will ask for a long (and I mean LOOOOONG) series of characters displayed on the screen. If it works, then it'll spit out a series of characters for you (or her) to type in. Once it's done, her computer is activated. If it fails, then it'll transfer you to a representative and you'll have to explain what happened. Typically if the key is only used on one PC, then the rep will give you a series of characters to type in to get it activated. Sometimes they may ask for proof of purchase.<br/><br/>Worst case scenario, the WGA wizard can be used to purchase a new license at a discount. <a href="http://www.iyogi.net/5174576/microsoftoperatingsystem.html?gclid=CM7freTAsqMCFYdb2godLHIw5w"><strong>Clik Here...</strong></a></p></body></html> | |

Solve : Sharing a VPN connection? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>Okay, I finally got that *censored* Local Area Connection thing running, and my two PCs are connected. However, I'm using a VPN connection to access the internet. So, I set that the VPN connection is shared on the network (that is, with the other computer). The one I'm connecting through connects online, internet is working fine, but the other one has no response (FTP, pinging, file accessing is all working). Help?Since no one else has responded, I'll respond as best as I can.<br/><br/>Why are you using a VPN to access the internet? I've set up VPNs before to access secure networks, but not just to get internet access. And the VPNs I set up were very specific, or limited to, one computer for security reasons. I would imagine that multiple computers could be set up to use a single VPN, but each would need to be authorized. What VPN software are you using?<br/><br/>You don't mention a router. Are you using one?Router is connected to the PC I'm using to access the internet. I'm not using a specific software for VPNs, I created the connection over Windows. It's that type of connection, that's why I'm using VPN. I connect to the VPN server with my username and password, I go through authorization and I'm online.<br/><br/>The thing is that it worked when I linked the PC and laptop (PC is using xp and i have win 7 on laptop). I just enabled the homegroup on laptop and <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/everything-25538" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about EVERYTHING">EVERYTHING</a> worked fine. This time I have two XP's, just shared the connection on the main one, but the other just can't access it...You didn't answer the question as to why you're using a VPN to access the Internet. <br/><br/>What you're doing is the equivalent of taking a flight from your home to a nearby grocery store: overkill.<br/><br/>VPNs are used for connecting to the network of a remote location like a workplace. They're not used typically for connecting to the Internet. I don't care if it worked for you in the past. Some people fly their <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/private-11896" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about PRIVATE">PRIVATE</a> jets to the grocery store and that works for them, but it's still ridiculous to the majority of middle-class society. <br/><br/>If you're just trying to connect multiple computers to the Internet, then don't make it harder than it needs to be. Do this:<br/><br/>Router --> LAN port 1 ---> Computer 1<br/>Router --> LAN port 2 ---> Computer 2<br/>Router --> Internet/WAN port ---> Cable/DSL modem (or whatever provides your Internet service)<br/><br/>Open up a web browser from Computer 1 or Computer 2 (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, whatever), and go to <a href="http://192.168">http://192.168</a>.1.1 (or whatever the internal IP address is of your router). Log in with the router's user name and password. What you do from here depends on how your Internet Service Provider allows an Internet connection. <br/><br/>If it's PPPoE: Select that from the drop down menu and enter the PPPoE user name and password. If you don't know what this is, contact your Internet Service Provider.<br/><br/>If it's DHCP (a dynamic IP address), then you probably don't have to do anything, as "Automatic Configuration (DHCP)" is usually the default.<br/><br/>If it's a static IP (rare for consumers, common for businesses), then enter the IP address, Subnet <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/mask-770491" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about MASK">MASK</a>, Default Gateway, and DNS servers. If you don't know this information, contact your Internet Service Provider. <br/><br/>If your modem takes care of any of the above three options, then use "Automatic Configuration (DHCP)," as your modem may have an internal IP address (hopefully not the same as your router's or else you'll have routing conflicts and will have to change your router's internal IP address), and may be acting as DHCP server.The thing is that connection to the workplace (by VPN) is used to access the internet. I logon to 10.64.0.1 with my username and password (everything in the VPN connection is configured), and then I can access the internet.<br/>The type of connection is PPTP.<br/>I have only one LAN port on my router.Quote from: markho10 on August 11, 2010, 09:13:59 AM</p><blockquote>The thing is that connection to the workplace (by VPN) is used to access the internet. I logon to 10.64.0.1 with my username and password (everything in the VPN connection is configured), and then I can access the internet.<br/>The type of connection is PPTP.<br/>I have only one LAN port on my router.<br/></blockquote><br/>Interesting. Is this company policy for you to connect to the Internet through a VPN? If not, then removing the check box "Use default gateway on remote network" is your friend here:<br/><br/>1) Right-click the VPN connection, left-click Properties.<br/>2) Go to the Networking tab. <br/>3) Click "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)" and then click Properties.<br/>4) Click the "Advanced" button.<br/>5) Uncheck that annoying little "Use default gateway on remote network" check box.<br/>6) Click the DNS tab. Add your company DNS server's IP address to the list of DNS servers to use.<br/>7) (Optional, depends on whether your company uses this) Click the WINS tab. Add your company WINS server's IP address to the list of WINS servers to use.<br/><br/>Voila! VPN access, and you still use your own Internet connection. If you can't access network resources, then make sure you did #6 and #7 properly.<br/><br/>If this is company policy for you to use the Internet over the company's VPN connection (which would be silly, as it would be horribly slow over a VPN due to the upload of anything but a T1 or T3 line), then contact your IT department before doing the steps above. <br/><br/>As for your router having only one LAN port...I can think of three reasons for this:<br/><br/>1) It's an older router--has one WAN port and one LAN port. Don't use those for PPTP connections--GRE <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/makes-248623" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about MAKES">MAKES</a> them cry.<br/>2) It's a newer <strong>modem</strong> that functions as a router.<br/>3) You're using a modem and mistaking it for a router.<br/><br/>If #1: Get yourself a better router. Now. <br/>Good option: <a href="https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833124190&Tpk=WRT54GL">http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833124190&Tpk=WRT54GL</a><br/><br/>If #2: Either<br/>a) Get yourself a cheap network switch and connect it to your router.<br/>If you don't care about Gigabit: <a href="https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833124005">http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833124005</a><br/>If you do: <a href="https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833124021&Tpk=EG005W">http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833124021&Tpk=EG005W</a><br/><br/>So you'll do something like this:<br/><br/>Router ---> uplink port on Switch (if it has one...if not, then pick the last port) -- two cables, one from port 1 and one from port 2 ---> Computer 1 and Computer 2 respectively.<br/><br/>...or <br/><br/><a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/b-236590" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about B">B</a>) Like #1, connect the router to your modem, use DHCP as the WAN option in the router, and either<br/>i. Change your modem to "bridge mode" to bridge everything to the separate router<br/>or<br/>ii. Give your router a static WAN IP address that's within the modem's LAN subnet and configure your router to DMZ everything to the router. If you need assistance with this, let me know. I might not be able to help you completely, but between what I know and calling your Internet provider, this can be done (i.e.: your ISP may not support the router and I have no idea what the interface of your modem is like, but put two and two together and it can work).<br/><br/>If #3: See #1. Get yourself a router.</body></html> | |

I have a working interent <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/connection-11321" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about CONNECTION">CONNECTION</a> on my other laptop (wireless) and through my desktop (wired).

THe status of my wirelss connetion on the problem computer is just aquiring network address. But it never connects. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm afraid I'm in over my head on this one. Start/Run...<br/>Type in ipconfig /release and hit Enter<br/>Then ipconfig /renew and hit Enter...<br/>Re-bboot and see...<br/><br/>NOTE the space between ipconfig command and the/ switchQuote</p><blockquote>I also get a funny looking address for my DNS servers of "fec0:0:0:ffff::1%1" and then "2%1" and "3%1".</blockquote>This is for IPv6. Normal.<br/><br/>Edit: The numbers don't look perfectly normal (kind of ), but it may be connected to the main issue, which patio attempts to fix.I have already tried to do as Patio said;<br/><br/>Start/Run...<br/>Type in ipconfig /release and hit Enter<br/>Then ipconfig /renew and hit Enter...<br/>Re-boot and see...<br/><br/>No luck with this I still had the same problems. My computer cannot connect wireless to the internet. I believe it to be a TCP/IP driver issue and cannot figure out how to solve it. I downloaded what I thought were the appropriate drivers form the drivers CD that came with the system. Right now I am trying to reinstall/repair of XP and see what happens. Any other ideas would be great if you have them. Thanks again!Quote<blockquote>My computer cannot connect wireless to the internet.</blockquote>Did you try wired connection?<br/><br/>After Windows reinstall, did you install chipset driver?<br/>What was used to reinstall Windows? Windows CD, or some recovery CD?<br/>Any errors in Device Manager?Probably forgot to re-install all drivers after the install...<br/>That's at least what it's looking like...</body></html> | |

Solve : New computer works (using router); old computer now wont connect to anything? |
| Answer» <html><body><p>We bought a new HP which has Windows 7. That's up & running <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/fine-248571" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FINE">FINE</a> and connected with the internet, hardwired, through the router. We have a Toshiba netbook that we have a Belkin wireless router (N+) that connects to the internet and we can access the printers and external hard drive without issue. We were using a Dell that has Windows 98 (2nd edition) on it and up until we pulled that one down, it worked fine hooking directly into the modem (Westell). We have Norton 360. We have DSL.<br/><br/>The HP is in our living room as is the modem and the router. I can use the wireless Toshiba anywhere in our house without issue. Problem, we are trying to hook up the Dell in the spare bedroom and wanted to connect to the internet, external hard drive, etc.<br/><br/>We ran the wiring to the spare bedroom for the jack and that works as we took the wireless netbook, unplugged the router completely and hard wired up the netbook in the spare bedroom and could access the internet.

Solve : desktop freezes about 5 minutes after booting up? |

Opened unit in safe mode. Neither firefox nor internet explorer would let me get on internet. However, unit operated normally otherwise, with no problems using a variety of non-web based utilities. So, rebooted in normal mode. Worked successfully on non-web activities for about 20 minutes. Then pulled up firefox and had no problems with web activities for another 20 minutes!<br/>Rebooted normal mode and immediately opened firefox, as I usually do. No problems!<br/>This is weird! Can't believe that opening in safe mode that one time <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/fixed-245605" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FIXED">FIXED</a> anything.<br/>Any thoughts on this?It didn't.

Went to msconfig/startup and disabled all startups last night. Booted this AM and unit ran all day with no problems. If same thing happens tomorrow I guess I'll have to selectively remove start-ups until I locate the bad one. Will Lin's program help me do that?<br/>Also, why does the unit freeze about 5 min after all the startups seem to have loaded? And, why does problem go away for the rest of the day after I pull plug and reboot? Why doesn't it <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/come-409636" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about COME">COME</a> back when I reboot? Wierd, no?<br/>Thanks again - PaulUsing Startup Control Panel, start adding items back one or two at a time, rebooting after each, until the problem returns. Then post the name of the offending startup item and let's see if we can figure out why it's causing the problem.<br/>Allan - thanks again for your help. The startup RTHDCPL seems to be the culprit, although it does not consistently cause the problem. When I booted up first time this AM I had only 4 startup items enabled: AVGTRAY(antivirus); FirewallGUI; Clavier(a text storage routine that I've used for years on several computers); RTHDCPL ( a control panel prebundled by Dell for the Realtek HD audio control). System froze up after about 5 minutes of use. I pulled plug and booted up again and had no problems after that.<br/><br/>Yesterday AM I booted up with the first 3 items enabled and RTHDCPL disabled. There was no freeze up at all.<br/><br/>Not obvious to me why RTHDCPL should be causing this problem. Any ideas? However, I never use this item so I <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/intend-2742712" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about INTEND">INTEND</a> to leave it disabled permanently. This was a very useful exercise since I wound up eliminating about 10 other startups which are completely unnecessary for me.<br/><br/>Regards - PaulNo idea at all. I guess it's for the same reason some people are allergic to certain foods and others aren't. As long as everything is good now, let's not worry about it. Thanks for the follow up.</body></html> | |

Just a few installed programs like AVG and Skype. If I can get back in I'll double check again and thanks for the heads up.Can't get into windows although I can via safe mode.

I'm in a linux live CD right now trying to salvage some itunes music but mostly I'm just getting input/output errors. I guess if I can find a jumper as I know this HDD doesn't have one I could change it to slave and go back into the live cd, or would that even matter given the circumstances with the live cd? <br/><br/>Laptop to IDE connector....about 7 Bucks at any PC store</body></html> | |
