What do you mean by permissions? [I'm not a pro in website building :-) ] I've checked the two files on the remote directory, the ARE there! I also, erased and re-uploaded ALL the files and directories on the remote site but the result is exactly the same - they don't show on the Internet but...

Hello, I've got a weird issue with my website that I've built here and few years and it always worked as I made it. Suddenly (might be since few months!), it doesn't show two of the pictures I've put on it (one jpg and one animated gif). The pictures were uploaded (through FTP) in my remote host...

Help! My computer (newly built 3 months ago) suddenly doesn't want to start and reboots endlessly. Yesterday eve, I just put it on "sleep mode" for the night (as I had to finish reading few more issues on some Internet sites) and when today wanted to continue, it just got frozen. I pushed the...

True, but I have large and important files to transfer and constantly. So the Ethernet solution is imposed. (But... at the moment I've got another unexpected problem that I need to solve...) :-(

No the Ethernet switch sits standalone as I said above. So I'll read more about those IP addresses and will come back soon. Thanks for throwing light!

Thanks for your feedback, Starting from your last suggestion, my XP machine is an old INTEL DualCore-2GHz-2GBRAM laptop. I think it will be too weak for standing with Win 7... am I wrong? Also, I have good older software that I still use and that doesn't work on Win7 ! Next, your questions...

Thanks again for answering! So, recapitulation: - I use two of the 5 ports of a desktop switch (or hub?). - The workgroups names (!) are the same (as suggested)! - I'm not sure how to statically assign IP address... - My (public) IP addresses, as seen from Internet, are the same for both my Win7...

Thanks a lot for your prompt reply. I've found the dialogs in both computers that say: "Obtain IP address automatically" or "Use the following IP address". The first is choosen. Shoul'd I check the second? But I'm still not sure what IP address I must put, whatever numbers (?), in what format...

Thanks for answering! - Yes, I use two of the 5 ports of a desktop switch (or hub?). - In fact, I made a mistake saying the "computer names" are the same - the workgroups names (!) are the same (as suggested)! I've got different computer names of course. :-) - I'm not sure how to statically...

Hail all, Please help me with struggling to put two machines in network through ethernet. 1. I've got an AMD-8Core-4GHz-8GBRAM machine with Windows 7 64bit and an old INTEL DualCore-2GHz-2GBRAM laptop machine with Windows XP Pro 32bit. 2. I've connected them through ethernet cards and...

Ok great. I'll do in the following days and will come back to confirm the result. Thanks.

That sounds smashingly useful to me. Thanks for the info. And here is my MoBo: Asus sAM3+ Sabertooth 990FX R2.0

The BSoD says "a problem detected and windows shut down and it suggests to run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption. Technical information: STOP: 0x0000007B ( 0xF78D2524, 0x0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000 )" I've got two SATA drives. I've got no floppy drive on that machine. The drivers...

Hello, I know for multiboot one should FIRST have installed the older Windows version then the new one. But I already have Windows 7 installed on my new machine and I want to install the good old XP on a partition. But there's no way to uninstall WIndows 7! And when I try to do it through the...

Hi, and thanks for replying. In fact I went today to my computer store and the PC guru checked the PCU fan (!). For some reason, when I installed it, I repositioned it twice in place and this might have provoked not a good cooling, so, shutting down due to overheating. The PC guru opened it to...
