I am using Di-804Hv without any problems. Try to DISABLE the Log service in a router can give that router longer life. "The log file keeps a running log of events and activities occurring on the device. The log will display up to 200 recent logs in Di-804 and newer log activities will overwrite the older logs. It also can be set up to send the log files to a specific email address. " The above statement will be too hard and add tons of rock to the router. My friend has a internet cafe near by me with 70 units of pc's. He used a GOOD Brand router with only 2 months and that router 'fried'!! After he changed that router (same brand) with Log function Disable, his told me that his router works fine and smoothly until now (6 months++). Hope this help..

As i know, 'phsically' bad sector has no way to recover even we used some diagnostic tools given by the manufacturer. we can try to retrieve some data that dropped on phsical bad sector but not all the data we can trace them back. i used NDD and PCtools before and they worked fine. but there is no PCtools anymore in the market. Some area that shown as bad sector may be not really bad but only go weak. we can call it 'weak sector'. Some of the protection diskette and keydisk use this method to avoid the floppy to be 'diskcopy'. When we want to diskcopy a keydisk, computer will copy those weak sector as bad sector and the copy process will ignore some data that saved in weak sector. This will make the duplicated copy won't function correctly. Some of the copy tools will transfer those data that dropped on weak sector to different area that is good, this also will cause that keydisk become malfunction. 'Logical' bad sector may cause by viruses or some software. This is not really bad sector. Those bad sector will become good sector if we format that media (HDD/FDD). Tools like NDD can recover Logical bad sector or even changes those good sector into bad. SO 'BAD SECTOR' can be happened in HDD and FDD. I agree what as MX said, it is good idea to send bad sector item for RAM or change that media with good one to avoid data lost.

huh ?? i thought its for 'disk fragmentation' like defragment done?

I am using default scandisk from Windows. its only can scan entire hdd for error. Is there any suggestion for a tools that can be use to scan a faulty folder? my problem is: i have a bad folder and make me cannot install a program. that is a system folder. when i install that program, it told me that system folder is corrupted and deny to continue the installation. The error message prompt me to do scandisk/chkdsk first. of cause i can scan my whole hdd but this will be very slow. i used NDD before and its for entire hdd too.

good stuff thankx totoymola. as prathapml said, there is no 'reg' in Win2K command line. thats why i can use it. thankx for the info.

That's why i feel funny why i couldn't use REG command in command line. Thankx prathapml. i did have a search on 'registry' but a lot of things came out.

one more thing is, is there any good software/tools to do the registry editing? something can group the software name. eg. after i uninstalled NAV, there are many things remain in registry like NAV, symantec, livesub.... and so on. last time i got a tool called EZclean. i can trace and shows all the registry entries and keys have been modified when i install a program. BUT this EZclean can't support Win2K and WinXP anymore when i have a chinese software in my computer. any suggestion?

o yes it can [key_local_machine\software\microsoft\internet explorer\styles] "a single entry"=- how come i can't use reg command in my win2k pro? it keeps on saying " 'reg' is not recognized as an internal or external command,.... Normally i use .reg file to do my job.
