I have tried Ryanvm update pack but it needs some improvements. You can try AutoPatcher but it is not perfect and take a lot of Hard disk space. So if you have broadband or higher connection the best way is to use Windows Update. Its take some time but download only the needed files. Pawan

I have the same problem but on Windows Server 2003 (and only in outlook), when I tested it on Windows XP it was just fine. Pawan

You can use this Outlook 2003 Add-in Personal Folders Backup (a utility from Microsoft) to backup all your Outlook data to a folder specified by you, you can save this single file on a CD. I have a backup of my outlook, and it is more than 70 MB. Pawan

Open Windows Media Player 10 Navigate to tools/options/rip music tab in "rip music to this location" click the "change" button. choose location (say my documents folder) other than "my music" and hit the "apply" button. you should be able to delete the "my music" folder now. Worked for me. Hope it is permanent. Pawan

On my PC Outlook 2003 (SP1) doesn't print properly, I have configured every setting in pagelayout menu and printer's property but when I print a mail, it simply cut it down from both side (left & right). All other application prints just fine. Its only outlook thats creating problem on HP LaserJet 1015. Any suggestions? Pawan

Media Player 10 (all versions) rip MP3 quite well. Pawan

Thanks Neanderthal, you have done a great job, now I have Office 2003 upto date. Every time when I install Office 2003, I have to install outlook junk email filter update, now no problem at least for a while, and I think after updating, my office application runs faster then before. Thanks, Pawan

Actullay it is a volume licensed version i.e. it doesn't required activation. And it exists. Pawan

I use both, but open office consume more memory then office 2003. When I start any MSOffice program, like word it only consume 3****k memory, and in open office it consume 21***** + 4***** as its run two program, a main program like word prossors and an opoffice.bin file that consume memory. But open office create smaller file then Office 2003. Pawan

The simplest way to overcome this problem is to format and reinstall your windows. Many registry cleaning software usally delete the registry entries required by these connection's. Also check your cable, is it twisted pair or straigt one. The later one is used for connecting computers through hub. Attached is the image for your reference. Pawan

Try MSI Extractor (a tool to extract files from .msi files). Then you can customise any file(s) and installation command. You can find MSI Extractor here. Pawan

When you start the pcs, is there a notification balloon on network connection icon in system tray inticating 'Now connected at 100 Mbps'. If it is not there then the cable is faulty. And if it is there then let me know the IP addresses you are manually setting up. It should be in the range for example '192.168.0.1' (server) & '192.168.0.2' (client). Pawan

Login to Administrator account, go run->compmgmt.msc->Local User & Groups->users->right click the user you want to delete and select delete. Restart and it will automatically login you as adminstrator. Pawan

These are the few utilities I found very useful. One is a divx codec, latest one but smallest one (Ver. 6.1, 676 KB). This is the codec that is required to watch the divx movie in windows media player, all other thing in divxplay.exe (10 MB) is not needed to watch the movie. Second is a file spiltter, it breaks big file in smaller parts, this is a single exe (you don't need to install it just run from anywhere) smallest one and perfect one. Third one is a file date changer (change the accessed, modified, created date & time) single exe. Download these from here. Pawan Comments please!!!

Just give it a try. It works. Pawan
