  1. Hi all,Yeah.. just noticed the same thing re: change to "unlimited bandwidth".Also noticed that mu "used disk space" jumped from 18.9MB to 20+MB.As I didn't upload anything to the server that would have caused an increase in "used disk space"... then .. the only logical reason for this change is..there's some maintenance going on on the server.Only the admins know for sure.Has anyone asked them... PMs or posts???RGPHNX


  2. hI Giniu,

    re: your question

    Is Windows 2003 Enterprise cleaning mbr while installing to install some of it's trash?

    Yup!! Yes !! Si !! your lilo will most likely be "messed with"

    The "accepted" setup sequence for installing a dual boot system is to install Windows XP first ...
    then...
    Install Linux. :)

    You can thank B Gates :)

    Fore more info check out "dual boot" How To's on the net. THATS WHAT YOU WANT TO DO !
    Hope this helps

  3. Hi Philywiskaz,You probably will want to replace all the ram because often times "mixing" ram will result in making ALL ram run at the speed of the slowest ram.Check your motherboard or computer's manufactures site for more details.For a general discussion of ram issues you can check out my website.Hope this helpsRGPHNX


  4. Hi Metalgod89,Welcome. Don't be intimidated by the "new" stuff... you'll catch on.. just read some of the info in the forums.Basically,,you make some posts in the forums.. you get some "credits" for each post you make..Then.. after you get enough credits.. you can request "webspace" for your webpages..Then you create your webpages & upload them to the "server" computer.HOPE THIS HELPSRGPHNX


  5. Hi all,

     

    mbd5882 could you elaborate on your comment re:

    Security is also verry crap

    What kind of security issue(s) does it have??

    I'm asking because the website that "sponsors" it doesn't have any security issues listed in their "bugtrack" reports. (ie. http://www.cpskins.com/).

    Do you have any info from elsewhere ??

    IIf so....Could you give the URL??

     

    Thanks

    RGPHNX

     

    PS- Anybody else have any info or opinions ??


  6. Hi all,

    Nobody has reported on this so.. thought I'd open it for a forum opinion poll.

     

    As reported in a recent CNET.com article..

    Microsoft to add 'black box' to Windows

    SEATTLE--In a move that could rankle privacy advocates, Microsoft said Monday that it is adding the PC equivalent of a flight data recorder to the next version of Windows, in an effort to better understand and prevent computer crashes.

     

    The tool will build on the existing Watson error-reporting tool in Windows but will provide Microsoft with much deeper information, including what programs were running at the time of the error and even the contents of documents that were being created. Businesses will also choose whether they want their own technology managers to receive such data when an employee's machine crashes.

     

    "Think of it as a flight data recorder, so that any time there's a problem, that 'black box' is there helping us work together and diagnose what's going on," Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates said during a speech at the Windows Hardware Engineering Conference here..............

    You can read the entire article here..

    Longhorn Spyware details

     

    What this means ..According to the article.. is..

    If Windows Longhorn crashes while you are using ANY program.. the ENTIRE contents (ie a EXACT copy) of what you were working on will go to Misco$oft when you click on the "Report the problem" popup screen.

     

    That means MicroSoft will get a EXACT COPY of your..

    -email

    -IM

    -IRC

    -Word document(s)

    -XL document(s)

    -Powerpoint document(s)

    -password information, including banking & credit card information.

    -ANY OTHER program documents your working on

    -the names, serial numbers, registration numbers of ANY PROGRAM installed on your computer.

     

    Basically, Micro$oft will get a copy of anything it wants from your computer... as long as you have the program open at the time that Window$ crashes.... AND they won't even notify you of what info they have taken.

     

    So.. the poll question is..

     

    Do you trust Micro$oft with your confidential information ??


  7. Hi chewetot,If the problem just started happening AFTER you installed the new dialup modem adapter card.. then It's probably.. the adapter card Or the drivers. Need lots more details to advise you any further than this.Hope this helps,RGPHNX


  8. Hi chewetot,Welcome to the forums !! There's lots of nice knowlegable ppl here to help you with any questions you might have. Just post your questions OR shout them if it's really urgent. Enjoy your stayRGPHNXPS- the hosting is excellent.


  9. Hi Amezis ,Sounds like your computer is resetting the screen resloution to the "default" settings at bootup.Almost any hardware (motherboard, video card, monitor or connectors... etc) malfunction can cause this to happen. Also, as the other forum members said (see above) it could be your videocard drivers OR even a corrupted Windows OS. This type of problem seems to be more frequent with Win Xp than with some of the previous Windows versions.My advice is to do backups.. then do a hardware diagnosis.. then re-install Windows if you continue to have problems .Hope this helpsRGPHNX


  10. Hi Hercco,
    Thanks for the reply. Yes, I already know that NNav, OPera, Firefox etc. webbrowsers don't load my homepage properly. That's EXACTLY what I'm asking about.. how to fix it.

    Also.. a REAL secondary concern is that the re-upload of a previously working copy of the website(ie. it worked perfectly before for NNav & Firefox etc.) ALSO fails to work NOW. I re-uploaded the previously working copy of the website in an attempt to fix this problem.

    Anyway heres a copy of the homepage HTML that the Nnav & Firefox & OPera use to access my site..... with my comments added:

  11. Hi all,Heres the latest in the browser display problems.Updated my homepage via ftp. -(deleted the old home page in the "www" & "public_html" folders & the ROOT directory "_sgt" & "_sgg" folders..before ftp'ing the update). Verrified that all new homepage updates had the correct "last modified" date (ie. the server was showing the newest version I just updated in all file folders which were previously deleted).Homepage uses HTML with CSS & tables only- no php or anything fancy. The only changes I made to the homepage were the addition of some metatags (ie. <META...>) in the header section.PROBLEM:I get a 404 error (ie. page not found) when attempting to access my homepage using NetscapeNav ver 7.2.IE ver 6 still works just fine.BOTH webbrowsers worked just fine before the update.Have re-uploaded a backed up/previous version of the homepage to the server in an attempt to correct the problem. ..result>> Netscape still can't find my homepage.QUESTION:What's missing/ wrong ??Any guru help appreciatedRGPHNX


  12. Hi Florisjuh,The "Windows Managemnet Instrumentation" is part of the core Operating system files that are installed when you setup/install Windows for the first time.You might be able to "repair" the file if you re-install Windows & choose the "repair" option. Check with Microsoft on how to do this. Am sure you can do it in Win XP... but don't know if Win 98 has a "repair" feature/option on the installation disk.If the problem is with the Win 98 OS .. you might have to update it to Win ME or above to use the "repair" feature.Hope this helps,RGPHNX

  14. Hi all,The display problem just kinda solved itself..Iev6 started displaying the images correctly on approximately april 20/05... don't know why.. "gremlins" in the machine???.. don't really know.. is a real mystery.I didn't change anything.. no ftp uploads.. no file changes .. nothing.The only thing I can think of ( a real longshot at best) is that it takes some time for the server to propagate & display the pages properly... BUT this should not be so.. in theory.. anyway. Anyway it's still a major mystery. If anyone has a definitive answer( ie you personally have encountered the same or a similar problem elsewhere on another server OR with your webpages).. then.. feel free to PM me. It would be great to know the real answer for sure.Thanks again,RGPHNX
