Re:INSTALLING AND CONFIGURING WINDOWS XP
Did you try to make a backup copy of the Wpa.dbl file as suggested in an earlier post?

Re:INSTALLING AND CONFIGURING WINDOWS XP
Just go thru the usual motions. First try getting in thru Safe Mode if not, simply re-install WinXP, if you haven't already done so. Let me know if that works for you.
While we are on the subject, I have an annoying XP problem. Two totally different machines, different components and all one is a PIII and one is a PIV. Windows XP takes about 10-15minutes on a blank screen during boot. ??? What is up with that... I'm sure someone else gotta b having that problem... so please... HELP! ;D

Re:INSTALLING AND CONFIGURING WINDOWS XP
I don't have that boot delay problem with my notebook. As a matter of fact, my notebook boots quickly. I would of course suggest that you check your startup apps/services. Also, were these installations fresh or upgrades?

Re:INSTALLING AND CONFIGURING WINDOWS XP
They were fresh. I think that it could be something in startup as well because it didn't always do it. I don't know when exactly it started doing it. I was just hoping that someone else also had this problem and could give me a pointing finger.
Thanks tho.

Re:INSTALLING AND CONFIGURING WINDOWS XP
odsamuels: have you installed Win XP SP1 on your machines? If you have, then I'll suggest that you uninstall and test. If you haven't, then try to install and test.
vicesquad: I'm not sure what to suggest, cause you can neither install nor uninstall anything. You may have to consider re-installing from scratch.

Re:INSTALLING AND CONFIGURING WINDOWS XP
Chris - Thanks reinstalled already.
I need help with this problem though. Have two machines with XP SP1. One has two NICs, 1 goes to the cnet switch and second one goes to the ADSL. The second machine connects to the switch.
What I need to do is to share the ADSL and share files between the two machine. Using that ICS with WinXP and ZoneAlarm. Thought it was plum easy. However I either get Inet sharing or file sharing.
Also which NIC connection should I enable ICS on, the ADSL one or the Switch one?

Re:INSTALLING AND CONFIGURING WINDOWS XP
Vicesquad,
Last question first.
you would need to enable ICS on the internal NIC (one to switch) as ICS will try to use a private IP address range (169.xxx.xxx.xxx)
I have a similar setup with Win2K machines, however I choose to go the proxy route... using AnalogX FREE proxy software... actually I have a few machines using this setup.
From other posts I have come not to want to use Cnet products ... had not too good experience with two Cnet NIC when I was setting up the above.

Re:INSTALLING AND CONFIGURING WINDOWS XP
Collin, thanks for the advice. Got at it Saturday and with the following links I solved the problems.
Have a Cnet NIC and a CNet switch. Have to figure out why I'm not getting 100Mbps instead of the 10 Mbps. Have to figure out the autonegtiaton on the CNet.
Thanks again.

Re:INSTALLING AND CONFIGURING WINDOWS XP
If you have set the NIC to Auto then it will connect at whatever speed it senses .. are you sure that the Switch is a 100Mbps switch or is it a 10Mbps?
There are certain ppl on this forum who would tell you to throw the Cnet stuff out ;D but if it works for you then all is well.
