    long delay before POST

    AMD xp2000; 512 generic ram I changed the battery. CMOS is keeping up with the date now and wasn't before, but it takes a few minutes before it even thinks about POSTing. When it finally POSTs, everything seems fine - at a slower speed than it should...It won't run at 133mhz bus speed like it...

    need data only from W98 HD

    I tried plugging the W98 h/d into the second position on the primary cable of the xp machine, set the jumper to slave....ended up messing up the ntldr and ntdetect files on the xp machine. Now that's fixed, is there a certain way to plug that W98 drive in so I can get the data only...don't care...

    Your Best Jokes

    Another version I heard: Pirate walks into a bar with a ships steering wheel attached to his wing ding. Bartender says, "That must be a real pain; a steering wheel on your wing ding???". Pirate says, ARRRRRR, IT DRIVES ME NUTS!

    Teamspeak broadcasts my computer audio output...

    play with the windows volume control settings. make sure the mic record setting is selected and turned up and the mic playback setting is turned down. make sure that any record "what you hear" setting is muted.

    Acronis True Image or Norton Ghost?

    I've got a nice fresh install of XP on a SATA drive. I don't have another SATA drive, just a regular ATA. How about your recommendations on backup software and possible complications imaging from SATA to ATA and back.

    Alcoholism is not a disease.

    It certainly IS a disease. It's an incurable, progressive disease. I have no doubt that if I were to pick up a drink today, I'd be dead and gone in a matter of weeks or less. DEAD and GONE! Alcoholics who pick up after a time of sobriety soon find themselves in a condition far worse than when...
