copy large file to USB drive hangs 1 2 3
by Guest flahmeshess- 58 replies
- 2.3k views
When I copy large files to my USB drive, it hangs. I've done some checking and found there is a problem with Win2k that is fixed in SP2. But I'm already using SP4. Any idea what could be wrong ? I don't think it's a hardware issue. I've use the drive on a XP machine and I can copy large files. Thanks for your advice.

Occasionally my taskbar, unaccountably, relocates to the right or left side of the monitor & it will not drag back to the bottom. The online W2K help does not appear to explain how to unlock the taskbar which - I am assuming - is why it will not respond to dragging. Please advise and thanks Blithe

corrupt files in W2K system
by Guest Jim Szatkowski- 4 replies

I'm having issues with a Win2000Pro SP4 installation (workstation). I had some files corrupt on the hard drive and ended up running a repair - chkdsk /f and getting the hard drive to read correctly now. Win2KPro wouldn't boot. The drive is still ok - I'm dual booting into other OS's just fine. However, it appears the corruption was in/on a section of the drive that had the 2KPro system files. It starts to boot into 2K and goes to the black screen with the white boxes across the bottom and hangs on the second little box. That part appears to be past bootldr and etc. I tried to do an inplace upgrade-repair of the partition and got a parallel insta…

Isn't 003 Router the Gateway not the DHCP ip's
by Guest Irwin- 1 reply
- 263 views
1. Isn't '003 Router' the Gateway not the DHCP internal ip nic? 2. Do you know of any issues if I use more of the scopes options? 3. Does 'reservations' prevent assumed scope options? 4. Shouldn't I set smtp, wins, www, etc.,. because each client would know a assumed 8day scope on topology of network. 5.Wouldn't this prevent less traffic? 6. Does 'reservation' use lease cost route per scope option? 7. Couldn't each client have more than one nic wh each nic have different reserved scope options? 8. If I setup using the above networking topology. Wouldn't this give the most optimal and secured network as far as DHCP assigning the scopes? (this d…

The service which executes the task programmer is started with the local system account. The local system account has permissions in the script and the container folder. Very thanks...

IE6 makes a screeching sound whenever it is opened
by Guest M Skabialka- 2 replies

I reformatted an older laptop and put the original Windows 2000 back on, but upgraded to IE6. Whenever I open Internet Explorer there is a high-pitched screeching sound in the background, from the minute IE opens until it closes, no matter the web-site. If it is closed there is no noise. What on earth could cause this and how do I stop it!!!

Can anyone tell me why I am constantly seeing old users in the Licensing tool on Windows Server 2000 found under Administrative Tools? I show users taking up licenses dating back to 2003. If I revoke the license it comes back. Many of these people no longer work here. Where are these people coming from and how do I clean it up permanantly?
