Hi there, its a cord mouse, just the new dual optic one. I have a standard cherry keyboard. It works fine with the drivers using the ps2 port. I have tried removing the drivers booting up with the old MS optical explorer mouse i had also using ps2 and putting the new mouse into the usb port whilst windows is running. It detects it, the mouse works but i reboot and the same crash problem. However xp boots into safe mode using the new usb mouse connection. Im not sure wat else i could do. Im a bit puzzeled.

Whenever i have a usb device connected to my pc it fails to boot into xp. It just stalls as the green loader is moving from left to right. I just brought a new Logitech dual optical mouse and it wont work on usb, ps2 is find. I was fiddeling around and thought i would try my zip usb connection and again it stalled. Therefore i've come to the conclusion that my pc wont boot into xp when a usb device is connection. Any suggestions, tips, resolutions? Thanks in advance

Can i use IIS on the home edition of xp? If not are there any good other free web server programs out there that i could use? Thanks in advance

Hi all Does anyone know where i can download some really sound screen savers for xp. I saw an animated fish tank one as a ss that matched the fishtank background for the desktop (at some pc shop place). Not sure where i can download this anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance

yep ok i'll turn it off my router was doing a great job anyway never had anything to log with xp ne-way plus the firewall was a pain when opening up ports for msn messenger and web cam and my internet radio station server cuz the fkin thing dont support port ranges as far as im away. It's already been turned off :-)

Thanks to "BAH" from ntl.support.broadband.cm he told me to come here to ask about a problem i'm having with xp and filesharing. I've established that my problems lies with xp firewall being enabeled thus preventing me from sharing over a network. If i turn the firewall off everything is happy hunting. Is there any setting in xp that lets you share files over lan through ports 137-139 without having to open these ports in the firewall. If not how can i share files with the firewall enabeled. I hate the fact of having my 137-139 opened through the firewall but i've conifurerd my wan gateway to show 137-139 as private ports thus stealthing them from a net attack i should be ok in that sense. Any help on this xp firewall would be appreciated... Thanks in advance
