Won't boot (sporadic) & Freezes

acampbell
My Toshibe Satellite 1135-S155 has suddenly developed a problem. When I try to boot up, the power comes on, fan blows, the CD gets pegged, and then suddenly it cuts off, with the power light still on.

MS-DOS program exits to a black screen

beaner
My MS-DOS program has this issue with my XP Home edition: I open up the program from Windows and it pops up, full screen or normal window makes no difference, and when I exit the screen turns black. I have to shut off or put the computer on standby before the screen comes up normally again.

Error logs flooding hard drive. I think. Windows 2003.

jazzdrive
We are running Windows 2003 with Exchange 2003. However, none of the users have mailboxes set up, and out domain provider has not changed the domain settings to point toward our Exchange server. We can send mail from an account, so SMTP is working, but like I said, no one has a mailbox yet.

Windows XP SP2 vs. Windows 2K SP4 a whole new ballgame

seraph1977
As it stands, in many ways I see it as sort of a toss up between Win2k SP4 and WinXP SP1 or SP1a. However, when the issue of SP2 for XP comes up it becomes a whole new ballgame. Overall, on this website, as well as several others that I like to check out now and then, it seems that despite the feeling that XP has i ...
