Legacy Operating Systems

Ok, while listening to audio on my Windows Media player, V 11.0, my audio on the WMP AND my system is completely muted immediatly after arriving at websites such as weatherchannel.com, atlantafalcons.com, or any website that appears to be running some type of Java or extraneous video or graphics....Now, sometimes it will happen and sometimes it won't. But when it does happen, it ALWAYS occurs after I have just arrived at an "offending" site and usually just after IE has just blocked a pop-up. The audio never returns unless I restart my system...Now, sometimes the audio returns after I close IE but it is very rare...I have checked all my connections, cord…

I can not print from Outlook Express. It doesn't matter if I click the print button or select print from the File menu or press Crtl\P, I get a message Internet Explorer Script Error Message stating an unknown error the the offending URL is res://ieframe.dll/preview.dlg I'm asked if I want to continue running scripts and if I answer yes, nothing happens, no print out. This happens from POP Accounts, IMAP Accounts, and News Groups Any ideas? ~alan

Hi, Am trying to assign more then one "DNS Suffix Search List" via a DHCP Server? Help please!

I have a program I tried to install on server 2008 which said it requires ..net 1.1.4322... I assumed this older version would be built in to server 2008 and so I checked the windows directory and there is a folder for this specific version. So why does this program's install routine think its not there? Do I need to explicitly enable .net 1.1 somehow first? If so where? I did not see it listed in the add/remove features section?

No. You can provide a real email address in Reply-to and ask to be replied to via email but such requests are usually rejected. If you use a REAL newsreader like XNews, any replies to your posts are highlighted and "jumped to" when you update the group headers. You can't ask for much more than that. -- Those who cast the votes decide nothing. Those who count the votes decide everything. - Josef Stalin

Add/Remove programs shows the program but just gives me how much use it has...There are NO remove options. So I tried to reinstall it using the original cd and it says its already installed and that if I want it removed, to go to Add/Remove in control panel to perform that function. I'm really frustrated because its a huge program taking up a lot of Hard Drive Space and the worst is MS doesn't support the 2006 version anymore and there are no updates. Could someone please tell me how to get this forsaken program off my computer? Should I manually start deleting MS Student 2006 folders? TIA

Hi, Im having lots of issues with my computer and virtually unable to work. Logging to windows XP (SP2, 1 GB RAM, 80 GB SATA hard disk) takes atleast 30 minutes and that too after navigating through couple of errors (blue screen, autochk.exe missing and so on) etc. Im not able to run any programs after logging on (associations lost). I have copied relevant files (my documents, favourites, personal excel macros) from C drive to other drives in the same disk and now would like to reinstall XP in C drive. When I try booting through CD drive, the set-up begins and I get a message in the bottom saying "press F6 if you need to install any third-party or RAID…

I gave my old computer to my sister. I did a clean reinstall of XP home edition and had some problems with some logon files not getting copied (msgina.dll was one of them) XP wouldn't start. I did a repair from the CD and cleared the problems up. I then couldn't activate the OS over then net. Called Microsoft and got it to activate over the phone. Then it wouldn't do any updates. Trying to get this solved I noticed that the Hard drive was 75% full. This should be impossible since I just reformatted the drive during the reinstall. No files show in My Documents, My Pictures, My Music or anywhere else. Nothing shows up in program files either. BUT…

Hi, Is there any way to have a locally attached (USB) device, for example a scale, appear within a terminal server session? Or are we still restricted to local printers and drives only? We are connecting XP clients to a 2003 terminal server. Thanks

Hello, Many program files such as EXEs, DLLs, OCXs etc. have embeded digital certificate viewable from their file property dialog. I know that when a file's certificate is no longer valid (not expired), it means that it somehow has been modified. Correct me if I'm wrong. But any programmer that know how to properly embed a certificate can use fake names in the certificate (e.g. Symantec, Google, Microsoft, etc.) or look-alike names since anyone can make their own valid certificate. So my question is, how do I know if a certificate really does come from the intended source? What can I do to check the trustability of a digital certificate? Here's an example…

I clicked on something and now all my desktop icons have moved to the right. When I open a WP program in the full view, the top task bar cannot be seen. I either have to work in a small screen view or do without the task bar. How do I return?

Is there a command line command that tells you when a server was last rebooted? I know the event log shows this, but just wondered if you can type something in that would display it. Cheers Rich

I'm no tech wizard so any help please make …

Re: Over 4 million highjacked PC's My little broadband icon in the system tray sometimes sometimes lights up with activity even though I'm not on-line - my wireless router is always on with my PC by the way. I've read that way over 4 million PC's have been highjacked. My question is: how can one tell if one has been highjacked and how can we stop them doing it again? Thanks - Andy
