    In Win2k Server using Terminal Services is there a way to see user passwords? Once you set up a user there does not seem to be a way to do that.

    Cisco VPN client and Windows XP user menu

    I tried installing Cisco VPN client 4.0.1. Works great. However it doesn't allow me to select a user when Windows comes up. It automatically just boots into the Windows user profile I used to install the client. Is there a way to correct that issue? Thanks.

    WinMX bandwidth question

    I tried adjusting the speeds under the "Bandwidth Throttle" section to increase the speeds at which I could upload to other users but I always seem to top out at around 14k. I know I can do better than that since I'm on a cable modem and I don't generally tax the connection much. Any suggestions?

    Heavy Gear 2/DirectX issue

    The game requires 6.1 (which is included on the disc) to run. I bypassed the install of it, considering I am using Win2k Pro and DX8.0a. When I run the game though it detects what version of DX is on your system and it won't run since I'm not using 6.1. Would problems come up if I installed 6.1...
