...it is being used by another process".
Is this possible to know what other process is accessing the file? Is there some command or tool for W2K listing the processes accessing a specific file?
Thanks in advance for any answer or hint.

There's a program out there called Whoslocking.exe that does exactly this, and lets you shut down the locking process. It doesn't always work, but most of the time it works perfectly on Win2K. Try Google...

Can anyone suggest a good Distro with PHP/Mysql working 'out of the box'? Or should I just use the Win versions? It is for an Intranet site.
Thanks,

Why are you asking for Linux just right here ?
(*whisper* why don't you try redhat or suse. installation is quick and easy. but unless you have high load on a 'small' server and you don't need much security - in sense of bug-exploits - then windows might still be the right choice. *thinks* I hope I don't get banned for this )

Hi there,
I never really had a real pocket pc 2003 pocketpc. I had a couple of questions to ask.
1) Is pocket pc 2003 Operating System as easy to hack as Windows? Just assume hackers from the internet.
2) Just say, i had an .net program. Can i do something that only my pocket pc 2003 device or emulators can runs that application? All the other programs like games, windows explorer, msn messenger, etc are lock down. I want to let my pocket pc 2003 device or emulator to primary sychronize on the .net application.
Is there any ways to do that? Something like a cyber cafe system but on a pocket pc.
Thanks.
Regards,
Chua Wen Ching :p

My computer could be locked by pressing down three keys: ctl+alt+del
but now its screen becomes blue for about a second and at once restores to its desktop, that is to say my computer can't be locked by pressing the keys.
Could you tell me how to enble the keys' function?
Thanks!
|
|
|
|

IIRC pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del brings up a dialog where one of the buttons available is Lock Computer as opposed to automatically locking the computer. This was the default action as far as I can remember. I didn't think it could be turnd off either.
Are you experiencing any other problems?

Once a time my computer was started by a CDROM
that could start any computer
and then run its window 2000 as an administrator,
meantime my administrator's password under my OS had been changed
Now I havn't logged on my computer as an administrator for quite several months
Any other critical problems have not been found
Thanks!

Why not just hit WinKey + L ? I don't think you can change the function of ctl + alt + del

Good Day
I am running a Citrix thin client server on a desktop for about 5 users. They each use about 300mb of memory and the desktop has only 1.5gb of memory. I do not want the machine to crash so I keep a eye on the ram usage but whenever I leave my workstation I musk lock my desktop. I would like to use task manager as the screen savers without the task manager being active.
Any suggestions please.
Thank You
Jan

Hello,
Does anything know how to determine the hardwar on your machine BEFORE the drivers for that hardware have been installed? I'm using windows 2K and I'm thinking there may be a way to get the hardware IDs through devcon. Is there a better way to do this?
thanks

Don't know where to put this question.
Ad-Aware shows that there is an illegal entry in my hosts file:
205.177.124.66 auto.search.msn.com
the file is read-only and i can't remove the line. I can't even remove the file when i do this it reappears. Even tried to fool my OS (WinXP+SR1) by writting a bat file which overwrites the hosts file by a modified one. Doesn't work.
I am lost here.
Pls assist.
Grtz, Guus

Search for the Hosts file, then right-click and open the properties page. Uncheck the Read-only property and close the page. Reopen the file in Notepad and remove the entry. If that doesn't work check the Security settings on the file and make sure you have permissions adequate to make changes; you may have to modify the settings there to let yourself edit the file.

I've editted the file, removed some stuff, saved it and it is there again. I removed the file and the next moment it is there again. I believe there is some proces scanning for this file and when it is modified it resets itself a moment later. On a 2.6GHz machine the moments come very fast.
so i've tried everything you have written but to no avail.
Anyone?
Grtz,
Guus

Damn... This is risky, but try it. WinXP monitors critical system files for changes, and replaces them with a fresh copy if they are changed. Try shutting off the System Restore function (sorry - I don't have a copy running right now and can't provide detailed instructions), then making the suggested changes. What I think is happenning is that the OS is detecting your changes and replacing the file with a corrupted copy. If you disable that function, then enable it after you get everything right, it may take a copy of your changed file and use it for future repairs. I wish I could tell you the location of the reference files XP uses - you could then modify that copy directly - but I can't without a copy of XP running to look at.

The solution was:
I had to remove msconfd.dll which was in my system32 directory. I am curious how it got there in the first place...
pestcontrol.com showed my this and it worked.
