    Two routers in-line?

    Just a little follow-up. I went over their house to check on the wireless router, and discovered that it contained a yellow sticker that said "Don't install this untill you read the instructions". Behind this yellow sticker were 4 wired ports. The unit is a Belkin model 54g. I took the manual...

    Double-click *.zip fil > Print

    Okay, I didn't have a "delete' button available. It said something about a custom config I had. So I clicked the "Restore defaults" button. THEN I had the 'Advanced' button available. Which allowed me to reset things after a few tries. Thx for the help.

    Double-click *.zip fil > Print

    Yeah, that's where I was looking, but I don't have an "Advanced" tab .. only "Change" and "Restore" It's already set to Winzip, which is what I want.

    Double-click *.zip fil > Print

    Not sure how this got screwed up, but the default double-click setting for my zip files is now "Print". Normally this is "Open". How do I change this setting back to "Open". Thanks. WXP SP2

    New CD not being recognized

    Yes, what Tannin said, exactly. Misery loves company. Yes, you can still read/access the files on the new CD fine. It's just that the volume name doesn't change. The problem is that an installer program that contins more than one CD (such as a game) will look at that volume name. If it sees...

    New CD not being recognized

    The Plextor came with a tool set, called PlexTools. That's the only "CD" thingie installed. Maybe it has put a wall, so to speak, between the burner & Windows. ??

    New CD not being recognized

    Yeah, jumpers seem to be set correctly: 1. primary master = boot drive (seagate 120gb 7200.7) 2. secondary master = cd-rom.burner (plextor premium) no other ide devices. yes, you can "see" a cdrom if/when you boot, but not when swapping. if you reboot with a different cd, it will see the...

    New CD not being recognized

    Yeah, the freaks. I'm sure they'll have a answer. I don't think it's related to copy-protection tho, cuz it happens even with CDs that aren't copy protected .. ones that I make myself.

    New CD not being recognized

    I can burn just fine. That's not the problem. The problem is that Windows sees the previous disc (#1) even tho the new one (#2) is inserted into the drive. Which affects the ability to install multi-cd programs.

    New CD not being recognized

    Hi. Happy new year. A friend has a new CD burner (Plextor Premium). He attempted to installed a 2-CD prgm. But when it came time to insert CD #2, Windows would not recognize it. It thought CD #1 was still in the drive. The installer prgm kept displaying the message, "Please insert CD #2 and...
