tear

I know that it's possbile to have two statics IP on one physical NIC. But is it possbile to have to dynamic IP numbers on one physical NIC? My ISP allows me to have five ip's. So I wonder if I can have two ip's on one nic? I'm running windows 2003 server.

Frequent connection drops

gagne

For months now, my connection speed will randomly slow down rapidly and eventually cut off all together. The only way to remedy this is to reset the cable modem. Since late May or early June I've had to reset my modem 5-10 times a day typically.

Problem with my video card (I think)

Whenever I play a game, any game or even a movie sometimes, 2 things can happen, 1- the game crashes 2- I get a blue screen (in XP!) saying nv4_disp. dll causes a problem. It can happen after 30 seconds, 1 hour, or not at all.

Proxy question

whoisit

I can't access a file that requires the use of a proxy. How do I find out which proxy server to use? Go through the free proxy list one by one is inefficient. .

NTFS random freezing

Sway

OK, this is getting on my nerves. . . Fat32 works fine, no flaws. I converted to NTFS, and I started getting random freezes. Not just crashes though, the whole lockup, with the mouse unable to move. This happens completley out of the blue, it even happens when I'm just sitting on the desktop.

64Bit Time!!!

CyberGenX

What are some of your feelings on AMD's new 64Bit Line up, and their soon to be release 64bit Desktop lineup. My Op. is the AMD has made a nice price margin for 64bit solutions and they also offer backward 32bit compatibility.

Odd windows 98 hanging at boot

Sway

This is a very odd problem, and it goes like this. . . I'll boot up my cpu into win98se, and it'll start up fine. I'll use it for a while, then, at some point i'll have to reboot, but once i reboot and get to the logon screen, a few things may happen.
