I have 2 Win. XP computers. I have my main one connected to a DSL modem. I also have an old modem and wondered if it is possible to connect the 2nd computer to another DSL modem with both using the same telephone line.
I was printing some music and had to change my settings.After cancelling the printer, I tried to print with new settings,But the printer won't print because it says Off-line.I've tried right clicking the printer icon to put it On-line,But it continues to say off-line.How can i get it back on-line and printing again?
I have a logitech mouse that has a smooth scrolling wheel no ratcheting. I wonder if it was possible to set up scrolling to scroll pixel by pixel rather than line by line.
I own a Dell M1710 XPS laptop with a SigmaTel High Definition Audio CODEC card that was shipped with Vista Home Premium installed on it. I had this same problem already while Vista was my OS and actually managed to find a work-around to solve the problem;however it caused more. The mini sub-woofer stopped working and there was a noticeable decrease in sound quality. And at times sound stopped emitting altogether.due to complications with Vista, I was forced to reformat my computer.I have noticed a great increase in FPS in all my games and overall snappy-ness navigating through windows. my Line-In option is shown in all sound applications, but it does not work. I wanted to record videos of my games, and it works (Finally!!!) But no sound.
I didn't make a wise decision. I used a clean up program called ET Remover and it was going to remove something from the registry. But when it tried to, it didn't work saying that it was being used by another program. So I went into the registry and took it out. Dumb.I'm not completely sure if that's why I have this problem, but it seems like a likely candidate. Under my taskbar there is a line which is not supposed to be there. I took a picture of it with my camera because it wouldn't show up in print screen. Made it red so it was easy to see in the picture. It has a shaking like effect. If I open a window of something and move it around I can see it moving in the bottom space. I also have a program called windows blinds, but I dont think that's the problem. It's not the monitor either. I ran a symantec scan, but I really doubt that could be it. I also tried a system restore to no avial.
Just built up a new computer. Installed Windows XP Home SP3. Installed fine but couldn't get online. Found out I needed to install the drivers from the motherboard install disk. It installs the drivers but then it has to reboot to finish. When it reboots it goes to a command line promt to make a raid disk. Problem is that I don't have a floppy disk drive in the computer. (Come on, I didn't think ppl even used em anymore.) If I try to take the CD out and run windows, It gets to the XP load up screen then restarts. Unless I run it in safe mode. My question is this:Is there a command i can use in that prompt to save the Raid Disk info to another drive or port. Like a USB port or External Floppy Drive?
This may not be the NG for this but occasionally my modem goes offline for a reason which I haven't determined. The only way I know to get it back on line again is to close and restart the computer, and then I can redial.Otherwise, I can't.I feel there must be some way of re-setting the modem without having to close down and open up again. Is there?
I received a Fujitsu Amilo, 80GB notepad running WinXP.
I'm trying to partition the disc into 4v20GB drives. NOw I have tried to use the Windows Doc Management facility - it does not work! You know, when you right click on the Primary partion (there is one only partition shown - 79GB) but, previously with previous computers, when you right click, the sub-menu that appears has a 'make new partition' selection. With this computer, when I right click, that selection is greyed out and unavailable. Now I must explain that the suppliers of this computer did not supply the original Windows didk but rather what they call a 'Recovery disk' What I assume is that this 'Recovery' disk does not supply the partitioning facility.
i need to check my IP from a command line behind a router. I know there are several ways to gain your IP from online but in this situation it realy needs to be only from command line. anyone know any .exe's or commands that would allow this
When I insert comments into Excel spreadsheet, I know that there's a way to put your name at the top line of the comments automatically, but I just don't know how to do that.
I somehow got my taskbar to be two lines. I can drag it down to hide it, but I cannot get it to go back to one line. If I click the mouse on the top line of the taskbar, I get the double arrow, but cannot seem to get it to go back to one line.
I have two Windows XP one Home, one Professional machines attempting to connect wirelessly to a vanilla Netgear access point. The XP Pro machine connects fine. The XP Home machine sees the Wi-Fi network, connects, accepts the password, and says it's connected -- but Web browsers and other Windows network apps will not connect to the Internet (they just hang for a long time before timing out).But If I open a command prompt, I can ping external sites and even use command-line ftp to connect to sites without a problem.I've gone over the network configuration of both machines and can't see any difference between the two. The Netgear access point doesn't have any kind of MAC address filtering turned on. Is there something I should be looking for that I'm missing? As an extra added strange data point I've tried to connect to the network via a Mac OS X machine and saw the same behavior as on the XP Home machine GUI-based programs won't connect, but command-line utilities will. Meanwhile, an Apple iPhone was able to connect and work perfectly.
I have Fedora Core 6 and use KDE.Is there a way to see permissions by using the command line, so you can see the results of a "chmod" command? I know you can see permissions by right clicking the file in Konqueror.
I'd like to send a command to a program installed on my XP machine. I already have the command: /cursor='no'but I'm not sure how to structure the complete command line to the appropriate program. Could someone give me an example of a command directed to a program installed in C:Program files?
I've spent several hour perusing google searches, but haven't found anything high enough quality to suit my needs. I have an Xbox 360 set up to run on my monitor, and until recently had the audio run through my line-in connection and output through my headset with 3.5mm jacks. Then I bought a usb headset, and can no longer find a good way to pass the line-in audio through to the usb sound card built into the headset.I tried using Audacity to playback audio as it recorded, and it works, but the sound quality is terrible, and I really would like a better solution than that.Other things I've tried is using a winamp plugin (I couldn't even get that to start working) and opening my computer's basic sound card's input as a capture device in VLC media player (couldn't get it to work either).Can anyone provide a better way get the Xbox audio to the usb headset? an increase in sound quality to audacity would be ok, I may just need to learn to set it up better.
Recently reformatted my pc fix a few problems now i have a new problem my dsl line keeps losing connection iv'e called the my provider they have checked my cables phone line even my neighbors phone lines im still losing connection on my dsl modem the internet and DSL go out at the same time internet light stays off while the dsl light blinks red with its one demon eye it doesnt stay offline it comes back in about a minute or so but it does it every 5-20min.
I need to pass a filename as an argument to an executable file. The filename may have a space in it, and the executable filename has a space in it. For instance:
I've got a very specific task in mind: I'm creating a CD full of mp3's which will play on my portable cd player. BUT: for it to 'see' the mp3s, all the file names have to be preceded by 3 digit track numbers, i.e. 001, 002, NOT 1, 2, or 01, 02.
Rather than re-label 'em all by hand, I'd like to use the rename utility. The only problem is that the rename utility doesn't 'add' the zeroes in front, it 'overlays' the zeroes over the existing label, so I get a bunch of files all numbered '00'.
I'm trying to find the command (to which I can create a shortcut) to minimize all windows (Windows Key + M) and restore all windows (Windows Key + Shift + M) in Windows XP.
I'm aware that there is a Show Desktop shortcut, but that's not what I'm after.
