I wouldn't even try to boot off the OS already on there, I'd just plug it into another machine and read it from there, after the permissions application discussed above if it happens to be NTFS.

Use Optimise ISO option to remove redundant file data. See unattended/multiboot-cd forum for more information.

I worked at a school once... had approximately 400 machines and I was the only one after the slightly deranged original sysadmin left

Gateway and DNS information is usually somewhere on the ISP's website as well.

WinEggDrop TinyFTPD 1.4 Tiny (14Kb) FTP server for light use (e.g. computer-to-computer file transfers).

It might be better to ask at the Shareaza support site instead of here.

Quite useless considering that even the 80386 of nearly 20 years ago could address 4GB of memory, yet no 386 motherboard I know of (maybe now - fast, i.e. few hundred MHz 386s are still being produced by Intel and used in embedded systems) can take that much RAM.All CPUs since Pentium Pro(?) had PAE and could support up to 64Gb addressable memory using 36-bit address bus. Have any of these physical memory limits been reached? Not since the 16M limit of the 286. Is there any point in extending the address space further? No. 64-bit processing? No.

It might be overheating if it's doing that.

If it was a custom program that one of you wrote for the purpose then I doubt you'll find it on the Internet...

Hex editor. Or notepad.

You really think someone would come back after nearly two years and look for his solution? This thread has been revived two times BTW...

Just delete the files... ...the point of using uninstaller is to remove entries from the registry but since the registry was in the now-absent Vista, there's no need.

LOL and they had him checking his router

You're not the only one to hate the new shutdown menu. http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=87575

Is there heavy hard disk activity during this wait? It might be a lagging driver... see some of the other threads here where others are experiencing much the same problems. If you don't have a floppy drive then you can put a DOS kernel and the flash program on a USB drive and boot from that; the point of booting from a floppy for BIOS flash is so nothing else is running and it's on a pure DOS, the same effect can be achieved by booting from the USB drive with a DOS kernel on it.

Turning the power off and then on again is not good for the hardware...I'd get rid of all the redundant items on the start menu and have a single "Shut Down..." option like previous versions did. Then a dialog with a drop-down box, just like WinXP did. I find nothing wrong with how XP (and the previous versions) did it...

Aren't the newer DLLs supposed to be backwards-compatible with the older ones?

I would disable almost all the devices in the device manager except the vital ones (video card, keyboard, chipset, hdd and hdd controllers, mouse, etc.) - USB, 1394, sound, network card, etc. can be disabled. One of the drivers might be hanging waiting for something.

You're supposed to plug the keyboard in and then press F1

Open a command prompt, type "start /?" and press Enter, then read the instructions...

I don't see anything obviously malicious.

Overclock your 2.4. It'll probably do 3.0 with stock cooling.

Try sed, the stream editor.

Read the post above you

I think almost all of the posters above me are doing it wrong If the router was blocking anything there would be nothing at all, audio and video are both supplied in the same stream. Check the following - 1. Volume control (double-click the icon in the system tray) - make sure nothing is muted 2. Device manager, ensure an audio device has been installed and working properly 3. Services manager, ensure Windows Audio service is running.
