    - FlashGet Problem
      I'm trying to use a download manager "FlashGet."
      
      Its works fine on my Win98 computer but not WinXP.
      
      Program installs fine and seems to work but never makes the connection to
      start the download.
      
      No error mesages except evenually "times out" on sites that are known good
      [download fine from IE].
      
      I ruled out my router and firewall as the problem as the Win98 computer is
      on the same network.
      
      Any one else have problems with this?
      
      Thanks.

    - Internet connection to websites unavailable
      I have Windows XP on a Dell Home Computer. I'm using a
      dial-up connection via phone line and internal modem. It
      takes me 3 tries to log on to AOL, and when I am there all
      I can get is e-mail. I cannot connect to any websites.
      Internet Explorere is not working either. I have re-
      installed XP. Same problem. Solutions?

    - start up music not heard
      Recently upon turning on the computer I am no longer hearing any start up music from windows. This also occurs at shutdown.... but all froms of sound play fine during operations of the system. music files etc.. all play
      
      Checked setings and the start up sounds are checked to be played when windows turns on or shuts down
      Tried
      Make sure that on the Explorer page 'Beep on errors' is checked - tha
      is involved in starting the Startup soun
      with Tweek UI and still do not hear the start up music
      
      Using Asus board A7n8x with nvidea on board sound since I thought it might have been conflicting with Audigity sound card which I have disabled
      
      The music used to play at start up but don't know why it sundenly stoped playing. I have all the recent updates

CPU Pinned @ 100%

by Kenneth » Fri, 02 Apr 2004 05:41:53 GMT

My CPU utilization goes to 100% and stays there when I'm using DVD Shrink.

Its the only app where I'm having a problem such as this. Does anyone know
how to alleviate the problem?

I have an AMD Athlon 1Ghz with 256MB Ram running WinXP (home) with all
updates to date from MS.

    - can't stop motherboard beeping
      
      I recently downloaded something from C/Net and since then
      the transducer on my motherboard beeps (like a boot-beep)
      every few minutes quite randomly and doesn't stop, even
      when the computer is idle. Re-boot or re-start doesn't
      stop it. I'm running Windows XP Home Edition on a Celeron
      powered Gatweway. I checked my Startup directory and
      there's nothing in it. I did a full virus scan and a
      Spybot scan - no viruses and no adware/spyware. I doubt
      it has anything to do with the software I downloaded from
      C/Net. Please help - it's driving me nuts.

    - How to get icons only in user-created toolbar
      I have created my own toolbar on the taskbar. However, each item shows an
      icon plus the name of the shortcut file. This makes each item about 6 times
      as large as the icon-only items on the Quick Launch toolbar. How can I get
      Explorer to show nothing but the icons? That's the way it worked in Win2K.

    - Accessing a File Share... why is this so hard?
      Thanks for the response.
      
      Shouldn't I be able to login to the non-domain computer when prompted
      using the COMPUTERNAME\LoginName method?
      
      If my home was setup to use a domain, for example "DomainHome",
      shouldn't anyone be able to login to a file share using
      DomainHome\UserName ?
      
      I can connect to the C$ share on my work laptop from my home machines
      using WorkDomain\UserName, why wouldn't this work in reverse?
      
      Maybe it is only a 1 way method... nondomain to domain enabled.
      
      Let me pose this question. If you have a computer that belongs to
      WorkDomain, could you login to access a file share on another domain
      if when prompted you enter your credentials as
      AnotherDomain\MyOtherAccount ?
      
      Thanks

    - LPD service support & setup on Win XP Pro
      Hello Win XP forum teams,
      
      Could you pls advise, whether or not LPD print services are supported on Win
      XP Pro platform?
      In Win 2000 platform LPD utility is included in Print Services for UNIX
      which provides both LPR and LPD servives
      and enables Win 2k to act as Unix Print Server?
      According to the following MSDN help site:
      http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/xpehelp/htm
      l/_component_Server_Printing_Support.asp
      The LPD service is embedded in Win XP platform? But there is no reference
      about how to setup.
      Could you pls assist?
      
      Your advise will be much appreciated
      Thanks in Advance for your time
