We have 3 computers and have connected all 3 to a d-link router. The problem we are having is that only 2 comps will work online at one time. The other one gets an error message. Our system is windows xp and we have tried rearranging the cables but the problem stays the same.

I'm setting up my friends home network. They have 2 PCs connected via ethernet and one laptop on wireless. The router is a wireless router / modem from 2wire. PC number 2 and the laptop both connect with no issues. PC number 1 is weird though. I can go to 192.168.1.254 and it opens up the router system page and I can go through and change and view settings. However when I try to go to any websites it immediately goes to "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage." I have tried netscape and the iTunes store and nothing can connect to the web. I have linux ubuntu on a Live CD and I can boot from that and it connects to the internet just fine.
My daughter has XP Pro on her laptop and I have XP Home on my laptop. Both are legal and registered but we'd like to swap the operating systems. Hers is a smaller, slower and older machine then mine so there shouldn't be any hardware problems or capacity issues.

Right click on desktop, create new short-cut.Type shutdown.exe -i..Click next, type in name for your short-cut e.g. shutdown computers Click finish.Run the short-cut you just created. Now you can browse the network for computers to shutdown/reboot etc. or just type in the IP/Name of the computer.You can even broadcast a message, and schedule the shutdown.Cool for sysadmins.You will only be able to shut down computers that you have admin access on!
I have a network running XP Home on 3 laptops and 1 desktop. All computers can use the internet and printers fine. One laptop (IBM) can share files with the desktop but the other 2 laptops (both the same make etc) give the error "The user has not been granted the required login type at this computer" when I try to access them from the desktop or the IBM laptop. All the references to this error message say to go to Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Local Settings but XP Home does not have this option on any of my computers.
I have purchased a new hp computer running WIN VISTA and bought an easy transfer cable USB port connection, but when i go to transfer from my old computer which is running WIN XP, to my new computer before i can select anything a window pops up saying migration fAILED.
I am trying to use a USB Hard Drive to migrate some data between two computers running Windows XP Pro. I'm using the Windows XP files and settings transfer wizard. The drive shows up a local drive instead of a removable drive on the old computer. When I run the Wizard, it seems to do a quick job on processing the C: drive contents. Then it bogs down trying to also process about 30 GB of files that happen to all ready be on the external drive.

My wife and I each have a computer running Windows XP Pro, her computer in another room of the house has no printer. My computer has of course, or I wouldn't be asking the question. We're both on the internet via a router and on cable.Is there a way to set-up, so that we are both able to use this one printer? I know they do it at my work, but the systems there are possibly different then a home system, yes?Until asking,, she's had to e-mail me the document, and I have had to open it here in my Microsoft Word and print it. worse case yet, is if I don't have the same font as her computer. it doesn't always printer until I find the ttf font over the internet.There must be a simple way without running cables all through the house?
If you wanna burn a CD on one of your company's computers, and if that computer has cd-burning disabled, you think: Huh? It's just a checkbox! Well it ain't. They have probably used a reghack which i call cdr_off. This is the reghack that they have prolly used:Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionPoliciesExplorer]"NoCDBurning"=dword:00000001If you want to ENABLE CD-burning, copy the regcode above into notepad, change the 1 to a 0 and save as cdr_on.reg. Run it and voilá!
I posted earlier regarding this topic, but can't find the NG I posted to. Essentially, we deployed a few identical machines (and hence identical HALs) individually. Now I'd like to save a ghost image, and use that to image each machine, then change their domain and workstation info. My only concern is this system ID thing - I was informed to use SysPrep, but what does that do? What happens if there's two SID's on the network - I was able to clone one desktop using ghost (didn't run sysprep), then just changed the computer name and joined it onto the domain after (had to reboot obviously for that, but I don't mind).
I have my laptop connected to my desktop through a router with certain folders shared. No problem copying some files and folders from the desktop to the laptop. But it's taking a long time to copy multiple folders one at a time.If this were being done on the same computer, I'd just go to a command prompt and use xcopy with the appropriate switches and then walk away and let it do its thing.But I don't know how to specify the location of the source folders for my command if it's between networked computers.Is this even possible? How do I set up the command? I want to copy a folder with lots of subfolders from the desktop to the laptop, and I'm working from the laptop.
