I currently have a desktop p.c. with functioning usb 1 ports. I would like to add a Belkin pci card which will provide usb 2 ports. Will this generate any problems?If it is advisable to do this what will happen to my existing usb 1 ports? Will they still function?

If my IS department decides to start to capture packages exactly what will they see? I write emails, on my remote machine and surf the net occasionally. Does XP provide secure 18 bit encrption between the two comptuers? If not is there any 3rd party utilities that I can run in order to accomplish this?

And when i have all my stuff connect then try to connect online with my bellsouth to start the install process on the Belkin install program. Well first it won't connect the bell south thing thats not allowing it to download the belkin program. I think its a firewall or something blocking it but not sure.

View 11 Replies View RelatedLast week I was hit with a multitude of viruses. Since then I've followed
the KRC Anti-Spyware tutorial, I have ewido, spybot (tea timer running), Ad-Aware, etc. and cleaned everythign up, and my system is finally stable again. I even got Norton System works and that helped a lot too. I've been to Windows update and am completely up to date with installs.2 problems still: I still have no audio, and 5 of my USB ports are not working
Firstly I have a pc which I installed Win XP Prof onto. All worked great. Then took out modem card and replaced with ethernet card. Again no problem. However, when I went to boot the compute up a week or so later it went through the boot process and then just before I would expect to see the Windows logo with blue sky background appear I "sometimes" get a blue screen flash up with a message which you cant read unless you can slow down time and then the PC restarts and goes through the whole procedure again.
I did manage to start in Boot logging mode and watch to see where the problem was. It seemed to be something to do with the Display adaptor. I found the appropriate solution on the web and although I now get further on into the boot, it still restarts. When i try to run the logging thing (!) it does not want to play any more and just boots in the normal fashion. I have tried defaulting the BIOS, checking the file system for damaged sectors etc all to no avail.
I have a PC with a built-in media card reader, and when I use the compact flash portion of that reader a certain program is always launched. I would imagine that initially I indicated which program to open. Is there any change to change that program?

View 1 Replies View Relatedlaptop has got the ZLOB virus and I am trying to get rid of it but I cannot connect to the internet because the drivers for the ethernet card are missing. There is no id on the laptop apart from the COA for XP and Z600 on a sticker underneath it. How can I find out what make it is so I can find the drivers. I don't mind paying for the drivers or a virus remover as long as they work.

When she removed the card windows locked up, as soon as she reinserted the card windows worked fine. She removed the mini SD card from the adapter to use in her phone, and windows still worked fine, but as soon as she removed the Mini SD adapter from the card reader windows locked up and the windows would hang during start-up with out the adapter. Reinserting the adapter cured the freeze and hang, but windows ran very slow.I removed and reinstalled the card reader drivers and was able to remove the adapter, but windows still hangs on start-up with out the adapter placed in the slot.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI play online first person shooter games and today my mx510 mouse started malfunctioning. I'd be playing and my mouse would just completely stop working, anywhere from 1-10 or so seconds. I tried using a different mouse, a mx500 and I still get the same problem. I've tried different usb ports, different mouses, and anything I could think of. These malfuntioning occurences happen quite often, maybe 2-3 times every five minutes, and my mouse completely turns off for whatever amount of time. My computer is about 3 years old, but I keep it running like the day I bought it. I plan on formatting really soon, within the next few days and that might solve the problem. Please let me know of any reason this problem is occuring, and what I can do to fix it

I've tried loads of stuff off the web but I just can't get them to work again. I even reformatted the drive and reinstalled everything, no good.

View 12 Replies View RelatedI was working this morning and I tried to put a flash drive in my usb port (one that I've used forever) and I got the following messages:"Administrator has restricted this computer to access usb/1394 mass storage devices"and "G:/ is not accessable Acess is denied" This is especially troubling for me since I've got to finish working on my syllabi and lessons for school and can't use my flash drive, plus I can't use my ipod, which is really irritating. I thought I was the administrator. I certainly haven't disabled anything at least not on purpose.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently ought an E-machines computer running XP MCE w/SP2. It has an AMD 3400 processor and 200GB HD and 1MB RAM. I had transitioned all of my files and applications from a Windows 98 machine using Aloha Bob's PC Relocater. Everything seemed to work fine, however, my USB ports will not recognize anything except my printer (no external flash drives or my digital camera - software is loaded onto the computer). I had contacted E-machines tech services and they asked me the usual stuff, like disabling the ports and restarting the machine, check the BIOS to ensure they are enabled, etc. Now they are suggesting I run a ''Non-Destructive'' System Retore. Naturally I will back up my files and apps on DVD, but my concern is will I be able to reload the apps to which I do not have disks for? Is there something elese I should do prior to running the System Restore (in SAFE mode??). Also do you think this will work and restore my USB ports?
