zup fellow msn'ers.... We are using ghostcast server in our office to ghost a few of our machines. the problem is that almost every other one has a different nic. we need to create a boot disk for every pc that has a particular card. Is there a way that I can make a bootable CD-R or RW in which I can burn all the nic drivers that come with ghost and also able to burn additional ones later on? That way we dont have a stack of 50 floppies all over the place...bummer. thkz

happens to me too.... that's just a linksys router being a linksys....try a firmware update (they usually fix the prob), or reboot the router. you'll be fine. and if you upgrade/reboot, make sure you remember your configurations since they will be wiped out.

well this doesnt happen ALL the time. Mostly just once in a blue moon, or just once and then work forever (so far). Any other ideas?

zup peeps, I cant take it anymore.... I need to buy a DVD+-R/W....well dont need...just WANT one! I was at BestBuy looking through their selections and was wondering what would you suggest based on your knowledge of the whole dvd burner world or what you use. I also dont want to break the bank, looking to spend a max of $150. I saw a BUSLINK 8x for $143.00. Is that a good reliable drive? They even have a LiteON and Digital Research 8x for $133.00....oh the options... would appreciate some input to help me in my decision. thkz, ceez

zup peeps, every now and then windows 2000 will decide to dissable the network card and cause havoc on the network. the drivers installed are the correct drivers. I've also seen this happen on other systems running 2k pro and 2k server. any ideas on why and how to prevent it from happening again. thanks

DoD is awesome...is one of those moie that leaves you hanging right on the good part of the good scenes...you know the one that you're either at the edge of the seat or all the way tucked into the arm rest with one eye open and the other squinting....waiting to see what happens! GO WATCH IT! 2 zombie thumbs up!!!!

i had a 6 in 1 xp spanish cd and it was like 2gigs or something like that...the bottom line, could not burn to a cd. i mounted the image using daemon tools, then told my burning prog to burn from the mounted drive to the blank cdr....bingo.....fit on a 700mb. give that mounting image thing a try....it took me a while to figure it out! )

if it's not broken dont fix it man.

Zup msfn'ers!!??!? I need to reinstall xp home on my friends pc but I dont remember if going through the regular install process of xp will wipe out all the info OR just reinstall all the system files. thkz

Zup peeps, I have a linksys router and need to open the ports to be able to receive incoming calls with audio and video. I checked good ol' MS and I found the following page that shows a few ports. Which one do I need to open on my router? They are all TCP ports NetMeeting Audio Call Control - 1731 NetMeeting H.323 call setup - 1720 NetMeeting H.323 streaming RTP over UDP - Dynamic NetMeeting Internet Locator Server ILS - 389 NetMeeting RTP audio stream - Dynamic NetMeeting T.120 - 1503 NetMeeting User Location Service - 522 NetMeeting user location service ULS - 522 Appreciate your help, ceez

have you tried repairing/reinstalling ie? that has always fixed about 80% of all my ie problems throughout my lifetime in the pc world. and check the date on your pc. make sure it's current. and what are you running 2 pc's? one with xp pro and another with 2k3 enterprise? dual boot? which one are you using if stand-alone. dont know if any of these Q's can help, but I am just curious.

create another user name/pw , maybe something's gone awry with the profile.

Ok, I originally posted this on the software section...eventhough I am getting help i guess should of posted it here in the 1st place since it is the correct section..silly rabbit! check out my orinal thread here please. quick recap, *linksys router (no vpn feature) *forwarded correct ports to server pc (winxpPRO) *created incoming vpn connection on server *created outgoing vpn connection on client (winxpPRO also) *I CAN connect to the server, and I get the little monitor connection on the taskbar of the client and server *I have a share on the root of my server called "vpn" - c:\vpn *how can I connect to that share? what's the correct UNC? That should cover the basics. Appreciate your help, ceez

I use VPC, never vmware... it runs fine with any OS you throw to it. I dont see a need to change or try any other.

oooooooohhh! pretty pictues! I'll try the same steps again...but this time with pics! Lets see what happens! thkz !

****! I re-slipped sp1 but keep on getting that error. when i open the iso in winiso it says that is bootable.....fudge!

geesh, what was i thinking!?!?! thkz guys I thought I had tried every combination available! funny thing is that the first time I ever tried it worked on the 1st try! re-slipstreaming as we speak!

good layout and like the colors.. the custom pc page is pretty cool too. when you select a monitor/case in the drop down it actually shows you a pic of what you might be buying!

zup peeps, So i've done this before and had no probs. I am trying to slipstream sp1 (NOT sp1a) into a I386 folder. I extract the sp into folder SP1 and then type the following in cmd: c:\sp1\update\update /s:c:/I386 It waits for about 3 seconds and then I get the following: Failed to copy some or all of the files necessary for integrated install...... what am I doing wrong???? thkz

webmedic, so what do you suggest? Re-slipstream the files again into the i386? and suggestions are always welcome...who would bash for that!?!?
