51 and give me back my CPM

No Problem. Installed it first day it was available on Windows Update.

RoadRunner for the last two years with 1.5mbits download and 400 kilobyte upload capability. Excellent and reliable. The $44.95 a month is a little excessive but having 3 computers on a router it works great.

It is a separate application that comes with NERO. When you insert a blank CDRW, it should ask you whether you want to use NERO or INCD and then if you pick INCD it will continue to format the CDRW for packet writing.

INCD is Nero's packet writing software and if you have a Mt. Ranier capable CD-RW it only takes about 20 -30 seconds to initialize and it is ready to be treated like a floppy. I use Version 3.34. which works great. The new version that is out 4.01 does not recognize my new drive and will not load anything.

That was the initial problem. It would not change from PIO until it was deleted and reinstalled to redetect the hardware.

Good call, Rik. I just love this forum. I had the same problem and removing the 2nd channel and rebooting fixed my 52x cd-rom also. It was a PIO 2 and changed to UDMA 2. Thanks for the info.

You might check your antivirus settings. My settings got changed from default files to all files and it cut my harddrive speed in half and my processor was almost tripled.

Snow? Is that the white stuff that is 3 ft thick on my deck since December? Good old Syracuse. :flowers:

I agree with Tinker. The one comment about Bush and election is Bush did not get the popular vote because the Democrats stopped the counting in most states of absentee ballots if there was no question who was winning the state. Most absentee ballots are from service people who voted for Bush. As a military retiree we know who the enemies of this country are Our enemies: Vietnam War -- Vietnam, China, US Media, US Democratic Party Cold War -- USSR, US Media, US Democratic Party Gulf Wars - Iraq, US Media, US Democratic Party

FYI, I have been using PCPITSTOP site for quite a while and with a new machine I have been testing it quite often. I recently noticed that my PCPitstop was flagging my harddrives for slow transfer. I did not have this problem when I originally acquired the machine. I used the history function and found out when the problem had started. It was when I had installed McAfee's Virusscan 7.0. I disabled the program and reran the tests. Everything was back to normal. I checked the settings for System Scan and noticed that it was set for "all files." I changed it to the "default files" setting that I had also set on my old machine and re-enabled the program. My harddrive transfer rate stayed at the normal rate. I thought this was an interesting find and wanted to pass it on. w00t

Getting the same response. Tried to check MSN status and that web page wouldn't even come up. All else is fine. Microsoft must be having problems with its MSN server.

The reason I use it is because a old 500 Mhz k6-2, coming out of hibernate is a lot faster than a complete bootup. IMHO

Has anyone had any network problems after returning from hibernation. My PC using Roadrunner as its Internet Provider will not reconnect if it has been shut down by hibernation. The only way to get back the connection is restart. Any ideas, because hibernate is useless if I have to restart anyway for my network to work. Thanks for any advice.

That was good! I had to email this topic to my daughter and my wife. Of course I will catch all kinds of grief after they get it. All well!

Could I please get a BK Whopper with McDonald Fries? Yeh!

I haven't been able to get on for two days now. Wonder what the problem is?

RR 1500k Down 386k UP $46.50 monthly fee. Excellent service, very little downtime so far.

I use the same model ZIP650 as my secondary CDRW on my system with a HIVAL 16x10x40 as my primary. I am using NERO with my XP Professional and INCD with both drives with no problems. I did not load any drivers for either drive.

Have tried auditing under security? I believe you can add users and/or groups to log accesses to your program files.

I didn't exactly where to put it but I didn't want to stay quiet about it if someone else thought about downloading the upgrade. Hey you never know.

I have the Scanjet 2100C that came with the XP Pro Bundle I purchase. It has worked great with XP using its built in Wizard but the software that came with it, HP PrecisionScan LTX is not compatible. They have come out with version 1.11. I installed it which is another story, but it appeared to be a nice program. It included Scan to Web which allowed you to scan pictures to a Web site for sharing pictures, and it included OCR which appeared to work very well. The Bad News is you lose all your XP ability using its wizards for controlling the scanner and I found out last night it also messes up your communications to CDRWs. I was able to burn a CD but was unable to read various ones. I uninstalled the PrecisionScan software and deleted the Scanner from Device Manager to get my XP ability back. I also was able to read the CDs again. I guess it time to wait for the next update from HP. :cry

Hey, I got the same message when I upgraded my memory. I had received a 256M Dimm with my XP purchase, but I didn't put it in till later. I got the System error and a few others. I rebuilt the system. (I found out later I could have probably ran re-install. I replaced my memory and all was good.

Same indications. I try to keep my Start menu and bar at double wide. Sometimes it does after a fresh boot come up correctly, but after a logoff and back on it goes single again. Same indications in Explorer. Sometimes status bar, sometimes not. BTW Sig is good except too much jacket:D

Thanks, I will give it a try.:worship It worked great, thanks.
