Telo Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 Couple of brief questions. What is this i hear about lap-top screens going out? Ive heard of quite a few people having this problem and its scaring me. A 1 year warranty automatically comes with the new powerbook i am going to buy. I could go to another store and get a 3 year warranty for an extra 183.00$ but im wondering if that is a bit overkill? And would anyone like to be the severe minority (from what ive noticed) and tell why they personally prefer windows over mac? Basically im switching my entire life over mac and i want to make sure its worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaCosaNostra Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 windows....you can build a computer for a HEULLVA lot cheaper that is way comprable to a mac....program compatibility...hardware...easier to personalize...etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanity Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 alright.. so check it. i got my hands on an xp disc... i booted up w/ it in repair in order to get DOS file access. i do.. but when i try to replace my gina in the system32 folder, it won't let me manipulate it at all. i tried changing all the attributes (including the system32 folder), but no dice. any clues.

drsev Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 Did you put your Administrator password in when you started the repair consol? I cant rememebr the original problem really, did this happen after after doing any windows updates? If so you should have a folder on your hard drive with the Gina in which you can copy over: Boot from the XP CD, and press [R] then [C] at the Welcome screen to start the Recovery Console. Enter the Administrator password and then type: cd \windows\servicepackfiles\i386 copy MSGINA.DLL c:\windows\system32 Did you try and bootup in safe mode and swap the gina out through there?

MESTHREE Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 hey I have a question. I just got a wireless adapter so now I have free internet access...I can connect to a good network but when I turn off my dsl to try and use the wireless connection I cant get online or check my e mail even though it says the connection is fine. anyone know what I have to do to fix this?

drsev Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 Just to clarify: What wireless networking equiptment did you get? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MESTHREE Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 I have a d link dwl g510 pci adapter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drsev Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 is your DSL connected to a wireless router? When you say you're getting free connection when you bought this do you mean you've only bought the PCI adaptor and dont have a wireless network set up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MESTHREE Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 what I mean is there is an open network in my area that I can tap into :D so if I can shut off the dsl service i have and just use the umm.. "free" wireless it would save me $50 a month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quoted post i did all that.. well, not positive on the admin pw.. it was a handmedown comp, but i just entered w/ no pw, and it gave me access. my prob doesn't seem to be getting a new gina.. i'm just unable to do anything to the old one. i suppose it could be an admin issue. and it happened after a system restore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Greens Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 MESTHREE, I don't really know much about wireless stuff 'cause I dont have a wireless router or anything like that. However, someone told me about this program called 'Network Stumbler' that lets you find wireless LANs in your area, might be useful. You can get it at http://www.stumbler.net/download.php?site=...aller_0_4_0.exe. Perhaps someone else can furnish mesthree with more info on how she might use the information she finds with this program? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drsev Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Vanity - I think it could possably be that you're not inputting the right admin password in the repair consol. I know you can reset win2k passwords fairly easily but I'm not sure how easy it is to reset XP passwords. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 ok... I need help. We're replacing one computer with a new one, and I want to move the Symantec Antivirus over to the new system. Can this be done? I have the update codes I used on the last update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanity Posted January 26, 2005 Share Posted January 26, 2005 ok... i think the admin pw is blank.. cause it does give me access (as opposed to when i guess).. i spoke w/ the last owner, and they don't remember one. looks like my only other option is a format eh?
