Hello, I have a Dell Dimension 4600 with Windows XP Home SP2. Recently I bought a Linksys WUSB54G v4 USB 54G wireless adapter. The dongle's box blatantly claimed it was XP compatible, so I bought it. Well, now, I have the driver installed, and I've got the adapter plugged into a USB port. But it DOESN'T WORK! Windows detects the adapter fine, and even tries to connect to a network, but on DHCP the tray icon just keeps going back and forth without connecting. Sooner or later I get a "limited/no connectivity" error. Same thing when I try assigning a static IP. I also tried switching USB ports, reinstalling the driver, etc. but it stll doesn't work. I'm getting a bit fed up, and am thinking of returning it. If anyone has any advice, give it quick before I return it...

Diskeeper Pro 9.

I dont plan to do any hardmodding, just softmodding.

I am running an overclocked ATI Radeon 9550 256MB AGP 8x card at 425 core/212 ddr memory on Omega Drivers Catalyst 5.6. Since my card isn't exactly good for newer games, even OC'ed, I need all the performance I can get. What would be higher-performing, OC'ing using unlocked/modded drivers like Omega, or flashing the card's BIOS (I'm thinking 9550 to 9600 Pro) and then using the new unlocked BIOS to OC?

So the termsrv.dll build-2055 I downloaded is screwing up my comp? Hmmm. So what should I do? I need the concurrent sessions provided by that dll. Would my problem be solved if I got a tweaked sfc_os.dll that removes the XP OS file protection? Or do I have to get rid of my termsrv.dll tweak altogether.

I am running XP SP2 final on a Toshiba Satellite notebook. It has the RTL 8139/810x Ethernet chipset and an Atheros AR5004G internal wireless card. My problem is, when I boot up the computer, a bunch of network services don't start (DHCP Client, Server, Windows Firewall/ICS, Automatic Updates, BITS, Security Center, etc.) Strangely Windows Audio doesn't start either. All these can be manually started, but for some reason Windows Firewall/ICS can't start and gives me an Error 5: Access is Denied. Sometimes, when I switch off the wireless card, the computer boots normally with these services started. I haven't done anything to my SP2, except for a termsrv.dll build 2055 I use for concurrent Remote Desktop sessions. What is the problem? I especially need the Windows Firewall/ICS service to work since ICS is real important to me. Everything was working fine under SP1...
