Re: [WinXPPro] admin password

Can't you install windows XP without using a password? In other words, just
leave the line blank and use blank for a password? Regards, Jack F

RE: [WinXPHelp] Re: Printing DOS program data through USB connected printer

If the DOS application doesn't print directly to the printer port hardware, the routine at http://www.decompile.com/dataflex/tips/usb_printer.htm might get it working.

RE: [WinXPHelp] partition questions

You'd be better off creating or resizing a partition within Vista before installing XP. Once you have installed XP, you'll have to repair your Vista installation by, effectively, installing it again. You won't lose anything in Vista doing this.

Any recomendations?


Hi:
You can, and probably should, just remove the account. A common
occurrence. If you want to avoid the "sign in" make sure you have only one account,
and NO password. With one account, it cannot be anything other than have
administrator rights. Bye

[WinXPPro] Re:Cannot share printer

I had a problem with sharing my printers....I worked and worked..and then finally I realized that my firewalls and my anti-viruses had to be altered to allow for them. I had to go into Norton, and tell it to allow sharing...
I also had Computer Associates firewall on one of my pc's and I had to check this box in the settings to allow networking/sharing etc. ...I also had to reboot all three pc's to get the printers to share....
If you want exact details for Norton or CA firewalls allowing sharing/networking, I will be happy to list them for you.
