The number of things you can try is, unfortunately, nearly endless. Here's a few things off the top of my head: Could it be hardware? Some clone machines that have interrupt conflicts or flaky hard drives sometimes work, but work slowly. The hardware doesn't fail, just takes 3 retries to do everything. Check and see how many protocols you have set up. You likely only need TCP/IP, but maybe IPX for playing games too. Make sure the "default" protocol is the same for all the boxes (TCP/IP my recommendation), and remove anything you don't need. Some network cards don't play nice together. 100BaseT cards are like $20 ea, I'd just buy new cards for everything, get all the same brand. I like DLink there cheap and you can always find the right drivers. HTH

May be your problem is that the buffers are not aligned to 8 bytes (in NT4 they had to be aligned to 32 bits) Check Event log for event 1016

That means you're already logged in to \\computer as a different user.

just right-click on a .html file with the shift key held down and when the "open with" dialog pops up, choose your bustom web browser as the default. That might work.

I did some development on it last year. Waste of time - the project killed the company. Poor documentation, cruddy tools, and no longer supported by the creator. Why waste your time on it?

Maybe ping all that you see and ignore those who don't answer?!

Paul K. a recommandé d'utiliser RegisterServiceProcess(), qui est correct. Mais rendez-vous compte qu'il y a un autre effet - votre programme ne termine pas quand (j'ai besoin de changer à l'anglais pour les terms techniques) when the user logs off. S'il n'est pas acceptable que le programme coure après log-off, il fait répondre au message WM_ENDSESSION et terminer le programme vous-même.

Thank you I will try that I also saw some mentioning about a possibility that the network card also may cause these problems I will try your suggestion and will post the progress. pardon my ignorance.. What are Reference Drivers. Thanks in advance Alfadhly

For NT HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip should be somthing similar for Win9x HTH

I am sorry about the previous post, this is my first time and I was confused. Many people will give you long lectures about differences and there will be many variations of the answer but I think there is no clear definition. People say that 32-bit operating systems have this and that and some people say that the processor has this and that but there are usually many inconsistencies in those answers. I think that classifying operating systems and processors is just not as easy as many people would like it to be. ================== The original message was: Win32 is a 32 bit operating system. I wanna ask why are the # of bits of OS important for a programmer. Whats exactly the difference between a 32 bit OS and 16 bit OS. Shahzad
