The main game I am worried about is a football game from about eight years ago, I still use the play editor in it to design plays for a newwer version that runs on Win2k. So, I needed to share files to get the plays to Win2k. I may do both a kvm switch and a netwrok, just because I have been...

Thanks for the replies. I figured I'd have to go with a KVM switch. Thought maybe with a program like PCAnyhwhere if I had a network I could just access the win98 box without having to pay $40 for a KVM switch since I wanted a network anyway.

I just built a new computer (Using Win2k), but still need Windows 98 on my old one for a couple games. So instead of dual booting like I have been doing, I wanted to set up a network and access my Win98 box from my new machine to play games without having to switch keyboard, mouse, and monitor...

I have a SB Live 5.1 and just bought Hercules XPS 510 5.1 Speaker system. My question is . . . why do only two speakers work? My guess is that only DVD takes advanatge of 5.1, is this correct? If this is correct and I don't have a DVD player in my computer (and likely won't be watching any on...

Any good? Fry's has one on sale this weekend. CD-RWs are Liteons last I heard, but what about their combo drives. I think it is only liek $59.99 AR, don't have ad in front of me though.

Instead of installing 98 on the first partition like I had done in the past, I installed Win98 to a second drive. The problem is that Windows2000 boot loader doesn't see it. Is there a way to edit a file so the Win2k boot loader will come up and let me choose between the two? Or do I have to...

Are you serious? I better get up to speed on this new stuff. Every system I have put together in the last decade I always use audio cable going to the soundcard. Since when is this no longer necessary? Well my CD-rom drives are several years old on my two machines at home, so maybe they...

Actually, you forgot to factor in several cost factors. Most of the hardware is a varaible cost of the Xbox, you neglected the fixed costs which come from R&D, marketing, and plant costs to name a few. Obviously, some of you guys don't know too much about the business side of things.

One thing I would like to point out is that upgrading a Mac is not as expensive as people think. Sure you can't upgrade everything like you can an x86, but Macs hold their value. So, even if you do have to buy a new one for a full upgrade, you can sell the old one for a very high price because...

I have always left phoneline in, never had any problems. We don't get much lightning or even rain for that matter. Thanks though, if nothing else works I might try it. Anyhow, does anybody have an idea what causes this?

I am running Win2k pro SP2 and everytime my phone rings the computer freezes and I have to do a hard boot. Except, of course when I am connected to the Internet. Any ideas? k6-2+ 450 Asus P5A MB 384 pc133 Creative 56k modem

I see a lot of the usual stuff. Somebody mentioned a ton of free stuff out there and another place to download a lot of freeware is http://www.webattack.com. Stuff I use: Browser: Mozilla/Opera E-mail: Eudora/waiting for Mahogany to go to 1.0. IRC: xirc Chat: Trillian/Miranda News: xnews...

I do that, too. though I just merged apps and games. Howabout in the partitions themselves? Do you have graphics\adobe or just adobe\ for example?

I was wondering how other setup their windows hardrives. Do you have your OS on a seperate partition? Do you install everything in the root directory lie c:\opera or do you do something like \internet\opera or \browsers\mozilla? Always interested in how others do stuff, it may give me some...

I was looking into new/different software ideas. What do you guys use for like browser, e-mail, chat, compression, or whatever on a regular basis ? I was thinking I might be missing some interesting programs.
