    - W2k - failure to load SP4 because of no Web access Hi I have downloaded SP4 and am trying to install it on a laptop that does not have web access (yet!). The process stops with a setup error telling me to go to the W2k Service Pack Web site and select the 'Problems Downloading the Service Pack'. Apparently, I can get information about downloading a version of the service pack that does not need a Web connection. I CAN'T EVEN FIND THE SP WEB SITE!!! Can anyone help an aging newbie please?

    - mouse pointer - double speed? Is there a way to get my logitech mouse (marble mouse trackball) to go at double speed? Even the "fast" box is much slower than the same option under windows 98se. Logitech doesn't respond, so, maybe someone here knows of an aftermarket program that will just double the motion speed of the mouse - ok? Tag: Need Help with QBasic Commands Tag: 563239

    - Reboot? I have an odd situation that may (or may not) be related to my Win2K configuration. I run AVG antivirus on 4 machines all with Win2K. AVG is set to update automatically each day. Recently, on one machine only, the update software is demanding a machine reboot to complete the update. It didn't used to do this and none of the other machines do it and they are all receiving the same updates. This leads me to believe it's a difference in OS configuration which is necessitating this reboot. It's a minor nuisance but does anyone have any idea what might affect this?

    - Can't seem to make IE the default A few weeks back, an update for my W2K O/S might have had a gremlin or two in it. Anyway, since then whenever I use IE, I never get asked if I want to make it the default. (My normal browser is Opera.) However, it suits me to switch for a while. How can I make IE the default?

    - Reinstalling RAID Drivers Hi all, I have a Dell PowerEdge 2500 server, which has a PERC 3Di RAID controller in it, attached to two 36G drives, which are mirrored, running Windows 2000 SBS. We have been having problems lately, where one drive has been going offline - so the other day, we tried to install some of Tools from the Dell website, for diagnosis - unfortunately, one of them, it would appear, has somehow deleted or replaced the correct driver - after restarting (to complete an install of one of the tools), we now get a STOP Error: INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE. The drives are online at the moment, the array is intact and the data seems to be on the disk (I've used a boot CD to get in and check the data) - so I'm thinking this must be a driver issue - especially given the nature of the stuff we were installing at the time. So my question: How do I get the correct driver installed if I can't get into Windows? I have the 2000 SBS install media, so I can run Recovery Console. I also have a valid, full, NTBACKUP backup of the system, again if that's any good (I was going to restore System State - but again, I can't get into Restore Mode because it won't boot). HELP! Thanks in advance, DSt. Tag: Need Help with QBasic Commands Tag: 563192

    - dueal boot - blue and white screen On ASUS notebook with Windows XP Home attempted to make it dual boot to install W2K. Before dong any changes I copied original ntldr (245K) and ntdetect.com(47K). With Partition Magic created an NTFS primary partition and installed W2K Pro which went smoothly, and W2K was running OK XP Home would not start at all because, as I seem to remember, ntldr(211K) and ntdetect.com(34K) generated by W2K would not load XP, -so I replaced them with the those of XP Home I copied earlier. Now after selecting XPHome it produces the screen suggesting several modes of loading XP Home, but whatever mode I select it just restarts the computer. I replaced ntldr and ntdetect.com with ntldr(230K) and ntdetect.com(47K) from my working desktop. The first - booting into XP gave the same result, i.e. list of loading optioons and restarting the computer. But now W2K would not start. After shortly flashing that screen of starting W2K, it produced a blue_and_white screen of some gobbledegook among which there are english patterns like STOP: 0x000000A5 (0x00000002, 0x8907DE88,0x88FB23ó8,0x00000001) ASPI BIOS "readme.txt" http://www.hardware-update.com <F&> (I guess the remaining gobbledegook represent Cyrilics as the computer is localised for Russia) I placed the screenshot here: www.pifpaf.front.ru/blue_white_screen.jpg What might be the problem and the remedy?

    - cannot delete empty folders, cannot W-update, cannot inplace upgrade After giving up on the problem deleting recently emptied folders, I tried to update the W2K installation. This failed with a fairly common error message EOX..... the details of which I do not have access to for reasons explained below. None of the MS site suggestions allowed the windows update to begin. Assuming the W2K SP4 installation to be corrupt, I attempted to perform an in-place upgrade, booting from the installation CD with the correct raid drivers available during start-up. After failing to read spxcoins.dl_ off the installation disk, or off a subsequent floppy copy, the inplace upgrade stopped midway during final registry of devices. The spxcoins.dl_ is present on the install disk. The installation program does not display the files name's '.dl_' type, when 'browsing' for the 'missing' file. This is repeated for any subsequent attempt to complete the upgrade. As this is an ntfs installation on a raid device, I have no other operating systems or hardware to retrieve data off the drive, and no access to the second boot option WXP on the second raid hard drive, while the first is non-compos mentis. When I tried to install a temporary W2K OS in a drive mounted in an IDE position, I got the same errors. The correct raid drivers are loaded when booting from the installation CD, via floppy. Booting up into W2K, I get the message that the install did not complete and a run through of the same loop of missing .dl_file and stopped device registry. Any advice on: 1) completing the in-place upgrade 2) retreiving data 3) getting the temporary functional W2K OS installed on an IDE drive. ? RL Tag: Need Help with QBasic Commands Tag: 563178

    - Users & Groups Win 2000 Server. I want to ad a user to the "Administrators" group who is now a member of the "domain user" group. Should I just add them to the Administrator and also leave them as a member of the domain user group, or remove them from the domain user group. I'm not sure if being a member of both groups is only redundant or could cause a problem. Danny Tag: Need Help with QBasic Commands Tag: 563177

    - Windows 2000 Server StandardEdition /PAE Question Hi. I have a Windows 2000 Server Standard Edition, with 4GB of RAM installed. I also have SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition installed on the same server. I'd like Windows to 'see' all $GB of RAM and I've read articles on /PAE, but unfortunately some of these articles imply that Windows 2000 Server Standard Edition cannot use /PAE. So I have a couple of questions that I hope the group can answer: 1) Does Windows 2000 Server Standard Edition only support 2GB of RAM out of the box? 2) Can /PAE be enabled on 2000 Server Standard Edition to allow it to utilize all 4GB?

    - User Profiles In a previous posting, I described a problem whereby my computer is booting to what I believe appears to be a different user profile than I have been using for the past year. I am now convinced that this is the problem. Under Documents & Settings (Windows Explorer), an old user profile (call it User#2, removed a year ago) suddenly appeared today. (There was a sudden power outage yesterday for a very brief period, although I use a surge protector.) It is this profile to which the computer is booting. For example, when I first booted up, the desktop was dramatically altered. The icons for this changed desktop are shown in the Desktop folder under User#2. If I open Internet Explorer, there are no Favorites in the Favorites folder, because this folder is empty for User#2. However, if one goes to the Control Panel, Users and Passwords, this profile, User#2, does not appear. My question is: how do I get rid of this profile, if the computer does not show it to exist? When I boot up the computer, the former user profile name that I have used is shown in the boot-up window, but the computer does not boot up to this profile. I suppose that I could try to trick the computer by copying all of the files and folders, shown under the former profile name, into the User#2 profile. However, is there a risk if I delete the old profile name from the system after doing that? If the User#2 profile does not show up now under Users and Passwords, might not the computer boot up at all (except possibly to the Administrator profile)? Fun and games...

    - CDO.dll version 6.0.6603.0 I am having an issue with my Blackberry users. When they enter an appointment in their BB, it shows up in Outlook with the Start Time an hour later than what they created and what shows on the BB. I successfully installed all the DST2007 patches back in March 2007 and had no issues. However, I had an issue with my Exchange 2000 server 3 weeks ago, and it was solved by applying the latest Exchange SP3 update rollup, KB870540, which set my cdo.dll at version 6.0.6603.0. I applied this patch to my BB server too, since it had the Exchange System Manager. This seems to be when users started noticing the issue of the calendar appointments with mismatched start times. RIM support, which exhaustively checked my BES server and found it in perfect working order, tells me that the cdo.dll version I now have somehow does not "include" the DST patch, and must be repaired! However, when I check my registry on the Exchange and BES servers (both Windows server 2000 SP4, I know I know, get it updated), it shows the DynamicDST subkey under the TimeZone Key, which I'm told is the definitive test of whether the DST patch has been applied.Also, my servers have always shown the correct time, and still do now. So my question is, does the KB870540 update somehow disable the DST patch? Is there an established procedure for reapplying the DST after applying the KB870540 update? Thanks.

    - winsxs folder? Re: W2K Pro (SP4) - can I delete the winsxs folder My WINNT folder tree contains a 'winsxs' folder that's 8.8MB & created Sept. 2007. I found it doing some cleanup. Some Google searches indicate that winsxs has some relevance to WinXP and Vista functions only - & as a dll file backup. Other Google hits refer to developmental project functions. Many Google hits represent inquiries like this one but no threads seem to offer solutions. Most references to winsxs seem too technical to be intended for the average home user regardless of such user's expertise. I found no relevant references on the Microsoft Knowledge base. I am very curious how this apparent deadwood folder got installed on my W2K PC (my guess would be by a Windows update) but I'm more concerned about how to safely get rid of it. I'd appreciate this forum's advice. Blithe Tag: Need Help with QBasic Commands Tag: 563149

Above all, the camera must be dependable -- able to come through in shooting situations that are far less than ideal... even in harsh environmental and handling conditions. The camera must be responsive -- reacting instantly to the photographer's input... able to capture, within a heartbeat, the image in the mind's eye. It must provide a sophisticated feature set that makes it versatile and adaptable and, yet, does not compromise operability. And, of course, it must deliver image quality beyond reproach -- which, in the digital era, means not only virtually noise-free detail, richness of color, and depth of tone, but also sufficient data density to satisfy the widest range of output applications. Today, there is one digital single-lens-reflex (DSLR) camera that meets these criteria as no other: the Canon EOS-1D Mark III. Redesigned and re-engineered from the ground up, Canon's newest flagship EOS is destined to become the next "must have" DSLR for professionals. EOS 1D Mark III Highlights New 10.1-megapixel CMOS sensor Excellence in digital photography starts at the imaging sensor. Canon's uniquely advanced in-house sensor design and manufacturing capabilities are a major reason why EOS Digital SLR cameras consistently deliver state-of-the-art imaging performance. The EOS-1D Mark III features a newly developed 10.1 megapixel Canon CMOS sensor. It fulfills the primary functions of an imaging sensor -- sensitive, accurate, extremely low noise capture of image data -- with unprecedented competence. Its APS-H size sensor results in a 1.3 lens conversion factor, a format that EOS-1D series photographers are familiar with. Moreover, it incorporates Canon's latest CMOS engineering advances that significantly reduce digital noise -- especially in shadow areas -- and expand the useful ISO range. Exceptionally wide ISO range Combining the superb image capture capabilities of the new sensor with advanced Dual DIGIC III Image Processors, the EOS-1D Mark III offers the widest ISO range of any digital SLR in the world (as of February 2007). The standard range of 100 - 3200 can be extended to a remarkable 50 - 6400.* More importantly, the low-noise performance at high ISO settings makes the entire range usable in real-world shooting situations. * Standard output sensitivity. Recommended exposure index. 14-bit A/D converters Whereas earlier EOS digital cameras used 12-bit A/D (Analog-to-Digital) converters, the EOS-1D Mark III employs new 14- bit converters to process the output of the imaging sensor. This ensures smoother tonal transitions and more natural gradations. RAW images are recorded at 14 bits so that the full range of tones captured by the sensor are available in 16-bit TIFF images Tag: Need Help with QBasic Commands Tag: 563046

    - PartitionMagic A.K.A. PartitionTragic I had the very bad idea to install two OS's with the help of PartitionMagic on my Windows 2000.

Besides W2000 is terribly slow. I tried to delete the 80GB partitions and start all over again, but it doesn´t work. Still the PartitionMagic stuff remains in the disk.

    - Thinkpad cold boot problem I have two nearly identical W2k ThinkPad laptops, which display the same problem. During a cold boot GoBack is unable to initialize (if that is the correct term for this), and when that happens the boot just hangs. Instead of proceeding from "Preparing Network Connections" to "Applying Security Policy", and then to the logon screen, instead it proceeds from "Preparing Network Connections" to "Applying Computer Settings", and from there into limbo. I'm sure GoBack is the problem because in a successful boot, by design the GoBack logo will momentarily flash on the screen once it's initialized. After this failure, if you immediately reboot from shutdown, the next boot will be successful, as will a reboot from within Windows. My desktop does not exhibit this problem. In general I try to minimize what's included in start-up through MS-config, but there are some proprietary IBM functions that I don't tamper with. I very much want to keep GoBack on these machines, so I'm wondering if there is anything I can do to correct this situation. Tag: Need Help with QBasic Commands Tag: 562998

On March 6, I ran a program that optimized internet setting and recorded 5 tests so far. The averages (and the highest and lowest values)of those two sets of tests are: Jan 22 through Mar 5 Mar 6 through Mar 11 D'load speed: 1.75 Mbps (3.01-1.20) 4.24 Mbps (4.66-3.69) Upload speed: 411 Kbps (675-189) 530 Kbps (841-204) Quality of service: 42 Pct (95-13) 80 Pct (88-73) Round Trip Time: 107 ms (122-89) 98 ms (121-91) Max pause: 461 ms (1124-76) 108 ms (184-80) The average d/l speed increased by a factor of 2.4, and the spreads between the highest and lowest reading are considerably less. Question: Why do the default W2K (SP4) settings give such dismal performance? Which are the key parameters that have such powerful effects? For the record, I used System Mechanic Professional 7, which includes an Optimize Internet Settings tool. Before concluding that this is a spam for SM, note that I bought the program because it was virtually free (after rebate), and I wanted its virus protection. However, it didn't protect me from a virus that took me almost a week to recover from, including formatting c: and reinstalling all my programs. So I'm not recommending it for virus/firewall protection. Bottom line: anyone experiencing sluggish internet performance should consider some optimizing program. I'm sure there are lots out there. SM is the only one I've had experience with. Perhaps others reading this can suggest other programs. Ray Tag: Need Help with QBasic Commands Tag: 562985

    - "Access Is Denied" Error Message Appears, When Permissions Are Cor Hi All, We recently upgraded a windows 2000 server to Windows 2003 enterprise edition server, it was a fresh installation. We created all the shares which existed and gave permissions, and user started working on it for the last 2 days, yesterday we gave windows update and updated the server using express update, so almost everything got updated. This server is a member server in a AD domain, users are grouped this way. Two groups H1 and H2 were created in "Tai2d/built" OU and all users were placed in respective groups according to their privileges. But from today onwards some users are not able to access some shares. for eg. user1 and user2 are exactly the same, they both belong to the same group H1, but user2 can access, but user2 is getting access denied. We have no idea how this can happen, everything set correctly, but... Anybody has seen this behavior before, kindly let us know the solution. Tag: Need Help with QBasic Commands Tag: 562980

    - Laptop Keyboard Problem I'm in the process of setting up a ThinkPad R40 W2k laptop for a friend of mine. I've created a new administrator level profile for her and in general things are going OK with the exception of this keyboard problem Certain letters on the right side of the keyboard have numbers or symbols on them and it's the numbers and symbols that are being displayed when you press the keys. For instance <explorer.exe> appears as <ex*36rer.exe>. This can be corrected by pressing shift/num lock after you log in but she shouldn't have to do that. It should default to a normal keyboard without that step. The other profiles on the machine don't have this problem. I've run into this before, probably on this machine in fact, and I've been able to solve it, but not this time. Tag: Need Help with QBasic Commands Tag: 562973

    - File extension association doesn't work - workarounds? I run a program which uses a particular file extension (say *.abc). Opening files from within the program is perfectly functional. However, by default, there is no registered file type for *.abc. When I register the file extension to the relevant executable, and double click on a data file, nothing happens. The software vendors cannot help, not even to suggest the workaround which I eventually stumbled across. There is a workaround - add the executable to the "Send To" list, right click on a file and the file opens inside the program as hoped. The other workaround is to use an automation program, but is rarely applicable. I do this hundreds of times a day, so double clicking would be far preferable. Does anyone have a tip or a method to help with this? What I have in mind is to create a New Action for "open" for the particular file extension. The "Application used to perform action" would then be the Shell or "Windows Explorer" used with suitable switches to mimic the action of "Send To". This may or may not be workable, so any suggestions will be welcomed with open arms. Tag: Need Help with QBasic Commands Tag: 562965

    - How to get autorun working in win2k? Hi, I have a few USB flash drives that have CDROM partitions in them with autorun, and 1 of these autoruns work in 2K while others don't. Assuming I have the ability to modify the contents of the CDROM partition, how do I get all of them to work? I've looked at the autorun.inf files, but they all seem to be pretty similar, except the one that works is a U3 drive. Tag: Need Help with QBasic Commands Tag: 562964

    - Registry Woes Courtesy of Adobe Morning: I recently allowed the adobe updater to upgrade my reader... It didn't uninstall the Reader 9.0b.ocx file properly before loading the new version and now the registry is looking for that OCX file... I tried deleting the key that refers to it but Win 2K won't let me delete the invalid registry key... I asked Adobe and they sent me a utility to wipe the ocx files from the computer and then I reloaded the new reader from their website... It's still looking for the 9.0b ocx file... Help...

    - Memory dump I run the normal Professional version of Windows 2000. Everytime after my computer crashes and it makes a memory dump, I find that my temporary internet files are deleted as well. Is there a way to set the dump configuration so that it doesn't delete those files? Because I use a large cache and my hard drive is slow, so it takes 15-30 minutes to delete them.

I have QBasic Version 1.1 which, as you know, doesn't have a functioning
"Help" Menu. There is no information available on Microsoft's Website which
provides a List of QBasic's COMMANDS, and the proper syntax for its Commands.
Does anyone have a complete list of QBasic Commands & Syntax which you could
post here, or E-Mail them to me at tlmester@niagara.com. Thanks for you help.

Sincerely,

Mr. Terry Mester

Googling ' Qbasic commands ' would have been quicker.

Thanks Sid. I should have thought of that. I mistakenly assumed that
Microsoft's Website would be the best place to find info on Microsoft
Software. My mistake!
