Is it normal for IIS to not immediately recognize new versions of a web page that I just FTPed up to it? The index.HTML page is made up of many .GIFs (yuck). One .GIF I replaced, but the server still serves up the old one. I even deleted the file off the server, and resent up the new .GIF ... but it still shows the old one!!!

I am trying to fix up my old computer for my dad to use, which hasnt been touched for years. However its not working. Upon booting, it make a long mid pitch beep, followed by 3 short mid pitch beep and finally a loner low pitch beep. The screen appears to show something like 'Digital Snow', when first booting - after about 3 seconds changing to a screen full of what looks like a defrag table, which changes slightly. My first instinct was to check the graphics card, this works fine in another system - so i would assume it would be something else. Any suggestions would be greatfully received. Thanks.

I have Drive Image 7 and I have used it to make back up images of my PC. I am now thinking about swapping my IDE HDD for 2 SATA in RAID. Has anyone ever done a restore of an image on one or more brand new drives with Drive Image 7? I want to make sure that I can do it this way before I buy the drives.

Hi, I just built a new system. I got a new Seagate Barracuda 7200rpm ide hd with 160gb space. I booted directly form the Winxp pro sp1 CD and it formatted the drive with NTFS. But the problem is, when it asked me if I wanted to format, it only showed the 1 partition( which is fine) with 130GB (not fine). Then after formatting and loading everthing, when I went into My Comp and saw the disk size it showed 127GB. What happened to my 33 GBs? Can anyone help. I figure I need to partition the drive. But will I have to reformat everything for this and again install windows? How do I go about this and recover my lost space too?

I keep reading about BTX, but have yet to get a definative look. I know a lot of people here get out to computer conventions much more than I do, so anyone get a look at actual hardware yet? Looks like a pretty nifty design, schematically anyway ...

hi I've been thinking about getting a new server for a while now and I need some suggestions on what I should get (What processor, how much RAM, ...). I'm going to probably run Windows 2000 Server on it and use it for a few small web sites (PHP and MySQL), IRC, Mail, and as a file server (for a network of 5-10 machines). Any suggestions would be apprechiated

I am running Windows XP with the Service Pack and auto-update so I have the latest XP system stuff. When ever I try to stream video off the Net with Windows Media Player, it gives me the error window with "Send report to Microsoft." WMP version is 8.00.00.4487. Any video files that I play off my HDD work fine. WMP opens and plays when I double-click the file. I do run Kerio Personal Firewall, made rules to allow, and even tried to stream by *gasp* turning the firewall off, with no success.

I've had this problem for the past 2 or 3 days, everytime I start up IE I get a memory error (see pic). I'm running Windows XP Pro with IE 6 I've done all of the updates Uninstalled the Google Search bar Ran 2 Spy\Adware finding apps Removed and added IE again But nothing seems to have helped, I do not get the error when I use the file explorer only when I use the Internet Explorer. Thanks

I have IIS5 up and running on my Windows 2000 Pro PC. I am in Internet Information Services' Microsoft Management Console. The book I have, outdated since it has instructions for NT, says to right-click the computer name and choose New-->Web Site. When I right-click there is not New on the popup menu. I verified that I have admin rights on this machine. I tried to follow the book I have to set up other IPs on the machine. It's different in 2000 than the book's NT steps. I did assign the IIS Default Web Site to my machine's IP with port 8080 in MMC. I still cannot create a new web site. Anyone have any ideas?

Any chance of getting the old IRC server back online? Im starting to miss talking to everyone. An EXTS IRC server, eh?
