Greetings: I am tired of using the mouse and are looking for an alternative more effective such as joystick. I am wondering if any Joystick can be used as a regular mouse pointing device. If so, what do I need in addition beside purchase the joystick? Thanks for your feedback.

Thank you for your help. No I have only one Nic card. The Network bridge is installed when I use XP network setup applet. It makes a floppy and I have to insert it to each machine on the network. I have 2 problems related to internet access: 1. My router web port is dead. 2. After...

Thank you both for your input. I would wait and will get a Belkin PreN Super G router when it is available on the market. I will never buy Netgear again. I am so disppointed in their tech support. I have to pay $30 to find out that they just guide you through the Wizard setup for their...

Greetings: For many years, I hook up my Motorola Surfboard SB4100 cable modem to my Netgear Router RT314 and everything works fine. Since Comcast HSI, change new ip address, dns, gateway etc every month or two, I just have to plug-in new parameters into the router and everything works fine. For...

Greetings: Let assume that you need to purchase a router (similar in price) right now for your home networking. Which one will you buy, wire or wireless (802-11g)? What is the particular (speed, easy setup, reliable etc) reason for you to get either one? Thank you for your feedback

jlanka: Thanks for the additional information. I follow your instruction but for some reason it didn't work. Here is what I did: 1. After logon to XP - All Program - Accessories - Command promt - At the E:\ prompt - Type in NEW VIEW \\XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX (for instance 192.186.3.152) - I receive...

jlanka, No, I haven't try your solution yet since I don't know what the sharename is. Is there a way to find out what the sharename is either under Win98SE or XP? Could you give me a sample of how a sharename looks like? Anyway, I find another way using: my computer - properties - Network...

Thank you, jlanka, for your help. The Win98 access to the server has been already taking care of. I am able to write, retrieve data from Win98 Explorer. However, I would like to do the same for Win2K and XP e.g being able to see, access, retrieve and store data on the share drive and folder...

Greetings: My company just upgrade their server from Novell to MS 2003 Server. My workstation has Tripple boot OS Win98SE, Win2K Prof sp3, and XP Prof sp1. The Win98SE has been updated, connected, and able to print on the new server. However, my Win2K Prof. and XP is still on the old Novell...

Thanks for your help. Effectively, I found it after checking the mobo package. It's so flimsy and not as sturdy as the Antec. Additionally, the Antec has color coded with appropriate laminated label. I am wondering where I can find a good quality self adhesive label for the I/O shield panel.

Greeting: Just get the Antec Case SLK3700BQE and Abit IS7 mobo. The mobo I/O connector layout such as Keyboard, Mouse, IEEE, USB, Printer / Com port... etc. doesn't match the Antec Pre-cut Panel cutout. Is there a way to buy the matching panel cutout for a specific board? If so, where can I...

I am wondering if 200MHz is a noticeable performance in real life.

Thanks for the info. It will be very helpfull when I purchase the Athlon system.

Thanks a lot for the your insight thoughts. To simplify, 64 & FX is different only by the multiplier lock or unlockable. Performance and speed(same clock speed) wise they are very similar. Am I understand this correctly?

Not at this point. I had an OC Tbird 800 mobo Abit KT7-RAID + 800 cpu and never get a chance to OC them. I do consider this solution as a last resort e.g. in another year or so when I get the 64FX 51 system. This way, I always have a working system
