true but if that was the case then the firewall would come up to say that its blocked a program and if i want to unblock it. as well as this - the firewall was on before and it installed fine believe it or not i got infected with the malware again! I had to reformat and re-install everything, again, and this time for some reason the norton corp installed fine! Wierd! And that was WITH the firewall enabled

thats great, thanks alot chaps! The internet will be going through the router - that is where the broadband internet is connected to. I will try all this and come back if I have any problems! Many thanks!

I have an Imate SP5m, as well as 2x C500 (orange UK)

I am actually doing a test and prefer not to make the router a DHCP. What do I have to do to do this? Let's forget about the router for now - all computers are connected to it.... 1 box with WS2003EE with DHCP enabled. Issuing IP Addresses fine but now how do I make the clients access the internet through the router OR the DHCP server box? thanks for that buddy! the router's ip address is 192.168.1.1 - so how do i configure this in the DHCP on the WS2003 box as this will be the default gateway? I wish to give it a different scope of IP's - not ending in 1.x but rather 100.x - would this still be ok even configuring the router with that IP (192.168.1.1) as the default gateway? I am also not making it into a domain - do i have to?

thanks for that most of them are on unix stuff :-/ any MSDOS/Windows? ill try the rom-o-matic and see how that goes

the .tmp should be deleted automatically when MS Word closes. It also depends the user account used to access that network drive. Sometimes word uses the system account to create several files which are only deletable by MS Word itself - not the user. try this: create a user account on the network run MS Word create a file and store it on the network drive using this new user account close ms word - there should be no tmp files - or if there are, you should be able to delete them remember to give the user account read/write permissions!

Hi. My NIC does not support PXE booting - I used the RBFG utility to make a PXE bootable floppy however there are no drivers that the NIC supports on that disk. since it is not possible to include a driver in the RBFG - I was wondering what other ways can I make/create a disk that is PXE bootable for certain NIC's? I want to use ADS for a couple of things, for quick deployment on a test box etc... that is why I am wanting a PXE disk

its not really recommended for a laptop - with a celeron it will run a bit slow with that CPU speed Battery will also drain out more often!

Hi. I'm just playing around with WS2003EE. I have done this before, and I have done it again - I have set up a DHCP successfully. What I want to do basically is kind of like a router configuration - DHCP gives client IP and allows the clients to access the internet. I have a router, it has DHCP - works fine (almost but thats another issue) and client computers can access the internet. What I wanna do now is to disable DHCP (easily done) on the router, and pretty much make a box into a router where clients get IP from WS2003 DHCP and then I need to be able to configure the box to allow the clients to access the internet via the router. is this possible? I pretty much want it to allow the clients to be able to connect to the internet - DHCP is set up, what's next? Thanks!

you need to have outlook installed from the Office suite

sorry to "bump" the thread up but anyone have any ideas? any small or big suggestions? i am really interested in this problem but it is also frustrating on norton not telling me exactly why it failed this time round.

sorry your right about the dual core part, havent slept at all last night - still up. However I think it is pretty speedy compared to P4 - not that I have anything against it

im sure this maybe a late entry but for others... in a similar situation do this: if running Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista: boot into recovery console then type: fixmbr and confirm, reboot the system and all should be well. if not, then do fixboot and reboot the system. also make sure you do a surface scan with WD's awesome diagnostic tools

I know for a fact, got friends and colleagues who work there plus im an Intel fan, that Intel are creating dual core. its already out. Dual core is really super cool (and of course, we all knew for a long time that Intel whipped crappy amd's a** in terms of speed, security and reliability - sorry, had to add this last sentence in to rub it in even more )

sometimes its impossible to repair damaged sectors/clusters on a drive - physical problem. chkdsk or scandisk (Depending on the OS you are running) will find these as as said, will mark them bad so no data is written on them. I would highly suggest using the OS software to do this as it is the main thing that controls how data is written to the drive - using any other 3rd party software regardless on its reviews can sometimes really fail in doing what it is designed to do just my 2 cents

WD all the way baby!!! I love those drives, never given up on them nor have my customers. I always buy loads of WD drives, and if incase of HDD failure (which there never really is from my experience with them) it is easy to recover data WD for me, always

Centrino is dedicated more mobility and wireless (longer battery life, better wireless support) Pentium M has dual core I believe. I have a centrino myself from a P4 laptop as a replacement from SUCKY dell.... centrino is also much faster, it is efficient. a Centrino 1.7GHz is equivilent to a P4 2.4GHz

just get yourself another video card, a basic one or strip it out from another box, make sure it will work for your motherboard, and boot it up with it. Some motherboards have jumper settings to enable onboard video - but these days they are jumperfree. Check the manual, it should tell you. Sometimes when switching on the PC and using onboard video, keep pressing the Insert button, or i think the Home or End key - doing this can FORCE the motherboard to show video using the onboard video - again, check your motherboard manual system freezes can also be caused by bad memory or CPU.

Hi! I am unsure how many of you know about this, but I have been on other forums too! WMP Remote has been a huge success ever since version 1. Of course over new versions things have changed to make it better and have more great features! Thanks to the great response I have had, I am happy to tell you that WMP Remote version 3 is available (a month ago or so)! After weeks of re-writing the application to improve itself and adding new features, the application is bigger and better! Please, check out the list of features/improvements and download version 3 let me know what you think, please post any feedback/bugs here or email me from the website! WMP Remote allows you to connect your SPV to your PC using bluetooth/wireless/GPRS/USB Cable and allows you to select media files to play on your PC from the power of the SPV, and my app! I would love to put up a list of features here but would rather you visit the website! http://www.spapps.co.uk/software.aspx Please remember to keep checking for updates on the application within the application! There is an update available for both the client and server. Server has been updated to v3.1 and Client to 3.2 Thanks

ok i cant find it so, what now? I hope someone can tell me whats going on. going to give it one last shot installing it in safe mode *update* cannot install it in safe mode (Windows installer rejects it as its in safe mode)

i found this out when i was googling about the problem. stayed up until 9am this morning trying to troubleshoot it. I will search for the posts, if i remember the keywords and post back the links I tried this but did not help: http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/ent-s...002092715192848

I agree totally - if it installed in the first place, why not now? It's a "baffler" apperently symantec ARE aware of the issue and working on it - but the point is - they should have tested properly first then releasing it, or at least providing a work around for someone in this situation.

hehe btw - hope you didnt feel offended when i screamed NOT - did not mean it in that sense That was just to make sure... yes I have tried to install NAV corp in safe mode without much success - same issue stop scaring me when you came to the conclusion I have a worm! almost collapsed reading lol

ah! that is NOT a worm. that is the DEFAULT web page for WS2003 with SP1. Trust me, thats not a worm I have also asked my colleagues and they confirm this. that page is the default page which tells you that IE is on the "high lock" security setting we also deploy tons of computers and that is the default page for WS200, but the computer that NAV is installing on, that is my own personal computer at home.

that sucks! Already I have a worm? no way! I scanned the system using a different OS/HDD and had the firewall on (in Windows) and on the router as always! the firewall is enabled by default when you install WS2003EE with SP1 - firewalls are always on. but please tell me for my reference, how do you know I have a worm? *scanning from link as requested* it says it will take 10 hours to scan :-/ I have a 10MB connection lol
