RE: Using two computers on the same Cable or DSL line. I am writing this letter to ALL Wireless Router manufacturers. I have a Linksys Wireless Router Model:BEFW11S4. It is 7 years (yes, count them, all of seven little years) old. I have visited the Linksys website numerous times trying to set up the WEP/WPA security on that wireless router (as all responsible wireless router owners should!). I found that there are no links to any wireless router setting websites that are congruent with the screen shots from Linksys' own self help technical support site. I have had to call Linksys several times to resolve this issue only to be placed on hold for le…

by Guest Shrikant- 0 replies
- 207 views
I am using Office 2007 and Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 In Office Online -> Clip Art, When I give search for any name say Cat, after 3 seconds of search, the computer only returns the message 'Searched for "cat". It does not show the clips. This happens even if I give search for any other name. On the other hand if there are far larger number of clips for any given name, it gives the message "Your search returned more than 1200 items. To narrow the results, type a more specific keyword into the search box. " below the main message 'Searched for xxx'. When I narrow down my search, again only the main message comes without any clips. These clips …

XP File Sharing Help

- 328 views
I'm trying to create file shares on a couple of XP PCs so that I can use Microsoft Synctoy. This should be easy, but I must be missing something. Both are XP SP2 Home PCs. I already have documents and settings/all users/my documents shared on the network with a network name Shared Documents. That works fine, no problem. But, now with wanting to use synctoy, I want to share some individual user my documents files. So, I went into documents and settings/user1/my documents and set it to share this folder on the network and I allowed network users to change my files. That folder now shows up in the My Network Places on the other PC (right next to th…

Article: Trouble Ahead for Microsoft's Windows OS

My commentrary: Exactly as I predicted! Gesh I should become a TECH PROPHET or something! lol What will happen is that the current model of huge bloated power-hungry OS's like Vista (the best example of a FAT PIG WITH LIPSTICK) will NOT survive. New technologies that can work on small and cheap processors and with small solid state hard drives and little ram will be needed. All these machines will use the CLOUD more and more. When I was talking all about this a year ago, the microsoft dork fanbois had absolutely NO IDEA what the heck I was talking about. But you see they don't have a broad understanding of events going on. This is not MAGIC or PSYCHIC a…
