Printing from the Internet
by Guest Jaz- 1 reply
- 294 views
We have a customer that would like to print shipping labels directly from their location to our facility. Is it possible to setup a printer so that our customer can send print jobs to it from the internet? I would like to avoid creating a VPN for them to remotely connect unless that is the best or preferred method. Any ideas? Thanks, Jasper

hello,,, i have been loaned a win2000 machine, (this one) and thought i would look around as i havent had much to do with 2000.(my other machine is sick, and will take a while to fix... $$$$$$$$$'s) i wanted to change some icons for a few utilities i down- loaded, and for other things like 'Word, XL' etc. i did a search using this:: ' *.ico ' but found nothing relating to icons. win98 has 'moreicons' and 'shellicons' and similar, but i cant find the file(s) in 2000 where i can have lots of icons to choose from. i found the win2000 Help utility to be useless, there is hardly anything there no matter what. also, a bit off topic, this machine is using O/E5 …

Re: Error 0x80070006 when configuring Win2K Server
by Guest DanTheMan2- 0 replies

Re: Error 0x80070006 when configuring Win2K Server I know this thread is quite old, but I have run into this same problem. The error is caused by sysocmgr that runs to install iis and other Windows components. To get rid of this error, go to the control panel, add/remove programs, add/remove Windows Components, locate the Management and Monitoring Tools. You can remove the entire thing or just the subcomponent named "Connection Manager Components". The error will go away after this point.

Moving from an ABIT KD7A MB to a ASUS P5NSLI MB
by Guest W. Watson- 1 reply
- 308 views
I'm about to start building a new PC with an ASUS MB (SATA/PCI, PCIe, IDE, etc.) from the remnants of a PC with an ABIT MB (IDE/PCI). The old PC has W2K installed on its C-drive. I've been told it might be possible to do a transfer of the OS, apps and data from the old PC to the new PC using something like Norton Ghost or Achron (sp?). I would mount the old (IDE) HD as the D-drive, and the new SATA drive as the C-drive. Is that true? I would expect to have to find new drivers. Is that pretty much it? Where would I get the drivers and how would I know which to find? Is W2K going to tell me when I try to boot up on the new system? It's tempting to do thi…

BigLba problems
by Guest mike000777- 9 replies
- 493 views
Ok I installed a new 320GB HD in Win2k by doing the EnableBigLba registry change and everything worked fine. Two days ago I reinstalled Win2k and of course it didn't recognize the drive above 128MB, nor did it recognize the formatting. So, I did the registry mod again and it still didn't work. I was messing around and made the new drive "active". I confess, I didn't know WHAT I was doing, I was just trying to get it to work. I still dont' know what that does. :( Well I later learned that I needed SP3 or greater for BigLba to work. So, I downloaded SP4 and a rollup, etc etc etc... fully updated and now it still shows the orig 128 MB partition 'active' and an…

Hi all, I am new to use group policy to deploy application to desktops or users. The application I used to try was Office Compatibility Pack 2007.

Created a new assign group policy called Assign to computers in Properties window of MS Office Compatibility Pack 2007 OU and have the MSI file and other settings entered I then use differen…

Can't revert to "Show Hidden Folders"
by Guest rubyjack- 9 replies
- 483 views
I have previously posted this problem, but now I have some new info. As the subject says, I can't revert to "Show Hidden Folders." I have gone into Explorer>Tools>Folder Options>View> and ticked "Show Hidden Files and Folders -On." Everyone suggested that I check this first. However, when I was poking around in the registry I found the following settings. It seems to me that they are not correct for showing hidden folders. I have played around with them some, but to no avail. I thought someone more knowledgeable than me might spot a problem. Thanks for any help, Dan Hacker Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Softwar…

OE insists on dialup connection
by Guest Gretch- 1 reply
- 285 views
Connections for various mail and newsgroup accounts in OE 6.00.2800.1807 run in Windows2000 are marked as "Any Available", which worked fine until I created a new dialup connection which was tested before returning to using the ethernet LAN connection. Now, every time I try to send email or connect to a newsgroup, OE insists on dialing that new dialup account even though I am currently connected to the Internet through the LAN. How do I restore "Any Available" connections to email and newsgroups, even though they are marked that way? Restarting OE and rebooting seem to have no effect whatsoever on eliminating the dialup connection method upon which OE insists.

Hard Drive Swap
by Guest Roger Fink- 4 replies
- 329 views
I would like to remove the hard drive on my IBM laptop, which has Windows 2000 installed on it, and replace it with a hard drive which was removed fromanother machine, same model 2682 R40, also running a freshly installed Windows 2000. Undoubtedly there are some differences in the installed driver versions, and the processor on the machine to be fitted is a Pentium 4M 2.0 rather than the 2.2 of the other machine. I'm pretty sure the two CD-DVD combo drives are the same. The proprietary IBM software on the "blind" partition that comes on a new machine is not installed on either machine. Is it likely that once the replacement drive is installed the machine will s…
