Winger300
I have a Windows 2000 machine on my network that hosts an Internet connection using ICS. The problem is that file transfers, or anything else for that matter are really slow going from another machine to the Windows 2000 one.

Hard Drive Performance

CounterCW
Hi, I have a Maxtor 7200 ATA 66 30GB HDD. I'm just wondering why the drive feels so slow! And how can I speed it up? Sometimes, when I launch a program (eg. Internet Explorer), the LED light will come on, but I don't hear the hard drive moving.

Setting up W2KS as a Domain Controller

hardwarecrazy
Hi, My W2KS is not currently set up as a Domain Controller as it is used in a Peer-to-Peer Network. But I need to move up to configuring my LAN to use it as a Domain Controller. What is the easiest way to convert my W2KServer as a Domain Controller? I understand that there is a command line prompt to do the same.

USB problems with KT266a chipset

Mark Young
I just got a new computer: AMD 1700+, Gigabyte motherboard with KT266a chipset, Windows XP. The problem is that USB mice do not work properly. Both mice that I tried (Logitech) work just fine on my old computer but on the new computer cursor movement is very jerky as if the sampling or refresh rate is very slow.
