help, 3Com ADSL modem doesn't work on XP,

rebelo
Hi, I've tested several beta version of XP, Professional and Home Edition. My 3COM ADSL Modem Dualink just doesn't work on XP. It works fine under Win95/98/ME/2k. I guess it's a driver problem, but 3Com has discontinued its support for all broadband modens.

Slow CD Access

a10thunder
I'm running Win2k and my system slows down to a crawling pace when I try to read a CD. When I put the CD in the CD-ROM, it takes almost a minute for Windows Explorer to read the CD. I've tried three different CD drives (two 40x and one 32x) and they all behave the same way.

Guys, Last weekend I took the plunge and installed win 2000. I tried to install on a brand new 30 gig disk. When installing win 2000 created a 2 gig partition and that was it so all I see in win 2000 is a 2 gig disk.

Anyone using a logitech cordless mouseman optical?

rgodart
I really don't like this mouse, especially the scroll wheel. Is it a malfunction of my mouse or do all mouseman wheels feel so loose. i mean, normally a wheel clicks while scrolling and it scrolls only when clickig (at least on my good old MS wheelmouse).

Quick Question about USB printers

INFERNO2000
I don't have one, but am thinking of getting one. do they still have the SCSI(it looks like it's a SCSI 25 ld) interface? I ask because that's what my print server uses. otherwise, I'll need an old rig to set it up as the print server.

Yearout
At a recent computer expo (COMDEX), Bill Gates reportedly compared the computer industry with the auto industry and stated if GM had kept up with the technology like the computer industry has, we would all be driving $25.
