NT locks up when browsed with XP

Asher
HELP. This problem shouldn't happen, but it does. I have two NT machines running our network (NT 4. 0 SP 5 or 6, I forget. ) Most client machines are 98SE. I installed XP on my machine. When I browse our network drives, and quickly jump from folder to folder, I can actually lock up the server.

CD problems

Igor
A while ago I've burned a CD with some data and it was all fine. CD was readable and all the files were there. Then I had to add some more files to it. (cd was made for multisession) So Easy cd creator imported all the information, I added a few files and burned the CD.

Send To CDRW

CounterCW
Ack! I upgraded my CDRW firmware, and now the Send To CD-writer is gone! Is there a way to bring it back? All my other programs (eg. Nero) work fine on my system still. Also. . Can one use the Backup utility that comes with XP to backup their stuff on CDRW? Thanks in advance, CounterCW.

Win2k can't use my PS/2 mouse port!

brainsoft
I though I had killed my PS/2 ports some how, they used to work when I got the mobo, but one day they didn't anymore. I don't know what happened, but I always felt sure I messed something up somehow, and have since been forced to use a USB mouse an keyboard.

Who wants to be a Millionaire 2nd Ed - XP

hughess7
Any one had any luck getting 'Who wants to be a Millionaire 2nd Ed' to work under XP? Installs and loads the game but crashes the PC once you have entered your players name and it tries to load the rest of game.

Cable Modem Problemo

LavaLamp27
I am sad :-(. My laptop works fine with my cable modem but my main computer does not. It has 2 3com network cards in it and both seemed to have died. I know the cable modem and connection are working fine but the cards don't seem to want to grab their new IP address.

Activation problem

Col
I'm guessing that the Applications forum is the right section to post this in. If not, then I'm sorry. . . I'm having difficulty in activating Win XP Home over the internet. I've activated it in the past in this way in practically every configuraion possible (single NTFS partition, dual boot with Win 98).

Single Laptop, NT and Novell Networks

clutch
I am looking to have a laptop boot into both our NT domain (soon to be AD) and a Novell 5 forest (the unit's homesite). Anybody have some insight on this? I know we can dual boot, but I would rather not complicate this any further than necessary (2 system partitions and a storage partition, licensing, etc).
