Disable PC-speaker alerts.

janfebmar
Hi Ive never experienced it before, but I have never heard about it either. I hate error/alert messages with sound, so the first thing I do when i install a clean windows is to disable all such sounds : control panel -> sounds and audio devices -> sounds, and select no sound theme.

Where is the data hiding in XP?

Sinluan
I just installed XP Pro into a 5GB partition and in practically no time at all, Windows is telling me that the space is virtually filled up. The funny thing is that when I take the sum total of all the folders in my C drive, it barely reaches 3GB.

Problems with Service Pack 2 to Windows XP

michaeljbrooks
The service pack seemed to install properly and re-boot, and at the boot-up screen where Windows XP asked whether to turn 'automatic updates' on or off I chose off since I never want Windows to access the Internet without my permission.

How can I select a portion of the screen?

packman
This seems like a bit of a dummy question to ask, but how can I 'marquee' a portion of any screen, in order to save it as an htm file? Any screen means either online or offline. In most offline situations, there are no menu bars from which you can select commands.

Prevent NT4 Workstations from joining W2K3 domain

Spazzo
I currently have a large W2K3-based domain. I'm in the process of retiring all NT servers and Workstations. I would like to prevent anyone from bringing up any new NT4 workstations or servers. I can't just restrict NTLMV2 because most people are already running SP6a.

Help needed in identifying USB driver in Win2KSP4

packman
I now use Win2K with SP4. I've been having some problems trying to install a USB-based printer and a USB-based scanner. In particular, the scanner's driver refused to fully install and instead caused my machine to instantly re-boot when the Setup for it completed.
