XP 2428 & UDFS

TR909
It seems that all of my CD-Roms (including the DVD)can not read a CDRW written in UDFS-actually written with Direct CD. What could be the issue here?In Windows 2k there wasn't such a problem as the CD2UDF support was native-the same i was expecting in XP.

Altering Bootup Choice Window

Phasis
Is it possible to alter, or preferably remove the inbuilt bootup menu that is installed with XP? I use Boot Magic and this now adds a second layer of booting options to this. . . and it's defaulted to XP, not what i want.

Mouse Opinions

INFERNO2000
I'm going to be getting a new mouse before long. . . Wondering what everyone here regards as the best mouse. I've had an Intellimouse Explorer, the non-neutered intellimouse, the logitech optical wheel mouse, the wireless mouseman, and am currently using a Boomslang 2000.

Anyone out there managed to get this installed on a system with a Soyo 6BA+ 100 MB? I get BSOD when the setup GUI try's to load then the box reboots to fast to see what the BSOD message is. . Any bios setting thoughts would be appreciate, tried two different vid cards (G MX and Voodoo 3).

Wingman mouse button problems

Herring
Anybody got any idea why my Wingman mouse seems to have problems with holding both mice buttons down (as in, the left and right buttons). It doesn't work, and it's a problem in the games that require it (Black and White, most recently).

Network Problem (Sharing)

DarkAngel
Networking in XP is supposed to be easy right? I guess I am a dumbass then. For some strange reason, my network works perfectly. BUT, I cannot get sharing to work on my computer. The default shared folder is fine, but I cannot share drives and folders by just right clicking on the drive and going to Sharing.

SBLive owners read this !!!

Inray
Hi, A usual SBLive problem using it on Windows 2000 is the very long booting delay and power management issues, like non awake after suspend. Try the following solution: Locate under \Winnt\system32 the file DEVLDR32.
