You can do thus:
Open any folder.
Click Tools menu and choose "folder option"
In the dialog of "Folder Option" you chose "File Types" tab
In this you will see "Extensions" Coloumn, Find there "TXT"
Choose it and click "Advanced" Command Button
In next dialog you will get different operations associated with File Type TXT
Choose open and Press tab Edit.
Here you see two text boxes, first telling operation name ("open" here) and other telling application name with command for it.
You should enter here (in Application TextBox) like this:
C:\WINNT\system32\NOTEPAD.EXE %1
change drive ( C: ) and window folder (WINNT) name accordingly your system and you will get what you want.
Ok.

Yes, is it means to load up the default BIOS setup?

The bios is the set of programs that run immediately on startup. It initializes access to your disk drives, assigns irqs to devices, sets the system clock, defaults for numluck, etc. On some mobos (generally targeted at DIY system builders and performance junkies, but not OEM systems) it will also provide options to adjust memory timing, clock speeds, and voltage levels to the cpu and memory. After doing this it calls the bootloader to start your operating system.
It's stored in a flashmemory type chip and comes with your machine. The manufacturer may provide updates on thier website but unless you're a performance junky, need to add support for a new hardware feature (>130Gig harddrives was a recent one), or it somehow gets corrupted you shouldn't mess with it because it it gets corrupted badly you might be unable to reboot or repair your system without getting a new chip from the manufacturer.

I ask you this question because I want to find the way to recover my laptop. My laptop has lock the password from accessing the CMOS and computer. Now I forget the password and want to find the solution to access my laptop again. But I don't know which tool that could be reset its password. Do you have any idea about that?

Contact your machines manufacturer. There might be a utility on their website, but since laptops are more readily stolen they're often designed to prevent a user from being able to do it at all, and instead making it a factory repair job.
Wish I could be more help.

It is depend on the function that is design from the PC manufacturer. The best way to know it is reading the manual that came with your laptop. For me, my dell computer is reqire to press F2 to access the BIOS setup.

Hello
i have a strange problem with WinXP SP2:
my computer runs 24/7 and doing lots of work, recently (after 9 days uptime) i noticed that the system can't open new dialog windows, show tabs menu in task manager, don't allow to run new tasks (typing 'ping' command produces no output at all!) etc.. that was strange for me cause on win2k i never noticed such a behavior, later i understand that it is cause of HIGH handles usage (as seen in task manager), as soon as it reaches ~10000 the system begins to misbehave
i need to close/rerun tasks to repair it withous rebooting
maybe anyone have ideas how to overcome this problem (rebooting is not a good solution) ?

You have probably found this http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=327699
There is a maximunm of 10,000 handles per process, the solution?
Fix the program/task that is not freeing off the handles it is creating!
I think handles are part of the non paged pool, this is a finite resource so eventually your PC willl crash if the resources are not released, hence the limit of 10,000

Hello all,
I’m trying to develop a simple/personal firewall using C#. I used Jesus O’s class for setting the rules and it is working smoothly. However, I’m trying to search for a way to make the application ask the user if a certain program is trying to access the internet, showing the port, address, direction…etc (just like the popup dialog in ZoneAlarm). I’m not even sure if this is the right place to ask, but any hint on how to do it, implement it, the algorithm for it or the API would be highly appreciated.
Many thanks in advance,
tmp0

Hi,
One more question regarding the Windows Server 2003 - we have noticed a drop of performance on one of our Win 2003 servers recently. After a little examination I've noticed that there is a task scheduled to run every hour at hh:45, called "Collect server performance data" (or something along those lines, translated from a localized version).
Everytime this task starts, the CPU usage goes up to 100% and performance becomes poor for a few minutes. Does anyone have an idea why does it cause such a performance drop? Is it safe to just change the schedule to, let's say, once a day during the night hours? Should I change it directly in the "Scheduled Tasks" or should it be configured elsewhere?
Thanks for any ideas in advance,
Rado

Probably from Server Performance Advisor[^]. This is probably on the start menu somewhere.
As for why CPU usage peaks, it's probably set to a really small sample interval, so virtually all the system is doing is reading the performance counters.

Hi everyone,
I hope somebody can point me in the right direction. Is it possible to create a self-installable configuration file which will automatically create a VPN connection on a client workstation?
The idea is that the users won't have to create and configure their connections manually, and would just run the installer which would create the connection automatically for them. Once created, they would just enter their own username/password when connecting for the first time.
The server is Windows Server 2003 Standard SBS, workstations are all Windows XP home/pro.
I've tried to google for it, but I probably can't find the right keywords as I didn't find anything useful.
Thanks for any hints in advance,
Rado

Check out the following link too. It looks like you 'might' need to write to the Windows Registry to get what you want.
