if you are connecting the HDD to an existing cable set the existing HDD/CD to master and set the new one to slave \n\nif you are using a cable with no other devices attached then you can set to master\n\nthe reason for selecting master would be that the OS boots from the master and some of the older OS will not boot from slave

You want to use as few spliters and split the signal as few number of times as possible before it reaches the modem. Those sound the same, but what I mean is that you don't want to use a lto of splitters, but if you have to use one, don't use a 3 way where a 2 way would do.\n\nI know I had a problem after spliting where the signal became too weak. Here are something I had to do and you should keep in mine when splitting the lines.\n\nFirst, see if your cable provider recommends any specific splitter. I know I had a cable man come out when I lost my connection and he replaced my spliter with one he said worked better with the cable lines. Something about a frequency range. Usualy its the same kind that came with the cable installation kit, if one even did.\n\nSecond, same goes for the cable it self. Try to use the best possible cable you can. Your house is probly already wired with something, so your stuck there, but connectiones between the wall/spliter and the modem should be made with a good cable, not some leftover wire with a homemade end.\n\nLastly, like I said, don't split more than you have to. For instance, I know in my house the main cable lines comes in and is split with an 8-way and from there goes to the other rooms. To improve signal strength, I removed the cable line from the room in which my cable modem is in. After that, I inserted a 2-way between the main line and the 8-way, and then connected line from that modem to the two way. Thus, instead of having an 1/8 of a signal before it gets to the modem, it now has 1/2. That should allow you enough to put another splitter in so you can have ti go to both a modem and a TV without loosing connection. Anyway, hope that helped

normally you have 2 IDE channels and each channel can have 2 devices (Hard Disk, CD, DVD etc) on it, so you can have 4 devices altogether.\nthe 1st device on each channel has to be set to MASTER, and the 2nd to slave\nFind out what you have spare, don't worry the 2nd hard disk can still be MASTER if it is on the 2nd channel, it will not interfere with the boot hard disk\nWhen all is connected power up and you should then see a D: drive available\nGoto Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Computer Management - Disk Management\nRight Click on the D: drive and FORMAT is one of the options.\nDo you want to make a multi boot PC?\n\n\n\nOk, yes the new drive will be E: unless that is already fixed by a CD player, then it may be F:\n\nlook on the back of the drive and you will see either mini switches or a bank of pins (2 rows) these may r may not have miniature 'handbag' links on them, there should be a patch on the top of the drive that tells you which pins to link for Master and which to link for Slave\nRemeber there can only be 1 Master and 1 Slave per IDE channel Max of 4 units)\nWith Win 98 you need to go to My Computer and RIGHT click on the new drive, one of the options is FORMAT\nMessage me if you have problems\n\nHope this helps

Why don't you just change it via the GUI, and not the CMD prompt. 127.0.0.1 is trying to connect to your machine, from your machine. What's the point?

Are you only playing with your top line? It'll mimic your choice in line changing.\nIf you're auto or manual line changing it'll use all 4 lines. if you're doing that and it's still screwing up, well.....uninstall and do a clean install. After of course, saving your data.

for the most part programs will ask you "do you want xxx to become your primary XXX\n\nif you continue to blast through installation setups, with out reading the fine print buy clicking  yes yes yes your screwed!\n\ntry system restore ...start/help and support/undo changes to your syetem...

I suppose this is a second hard drive you just have installed. If the drive is hooked on the same cable like the first drive, check the jumper on the disk. It should be set to slave.\nYou have 2 opportunities:\n1. Set the jumper on the 1st drive (the drive where the OS is installed) to master, and the jumper of the 2nd drive (the new one) to slave.\n2. If you have a ribbon cable with a black and a grey jack, connect the black jack with the 1st drive and the grey jack with the 2nd drive. When doing so, you can set the jumpers on both disks to "cable select" or otherwise also to master and slave like described under 1.\n\nIf the drive is connected to another cable, the jumper have to be set to master.

Hey, you need of these programs. Go to: www.effectivePCtools.com  \n\nThey change your computer's ip address so there is no way for anyone to identify you. Its a good thing to have anyway. I personaly think that the bottom one is the best. Should have no problem after installing either one.

Check the hard drives.  Normally their will be a little plastic tab that you can move to different sets of jumper wires at the end of the hard drive.  These determine whether a hard drive is consider the master drive, a slave drive, or is assigned master or slave depending on which connector on the cable it is attached to.  There will normally be either a small chart or some labels by the jumpers that show where the tab needs to be for the drive to be master, slave or cable select.  \n\nRecord the settings for each drive.  Then set the tabs to match the setting of the old drive.  (Meaning if the drive in computer A is master, and the drive in B is cable select, the set A to cable select and B to master.  Then swap them, putting them on the same connector the old drive came off.\n\nHopefully then the PCs will boot up with the swapped drives

The jumpers are metal prongs on the back of the hard disk.   One set of the prongs has a little removable plastic covering over it.  There are normally 3-4 of the sets of two prongs.   I think the slave is normally in the middle (I'm used to 3 sets).  Hopefully you got a manual with the the disk drive that has an illustration of the jumpers and it says which set is master/slave/etc.  Make sure the plastic cover is on the two-prong that is correct.  If not, just take it off the set it is covering and put in on the right set.  You can change if need and use trial-and-error.  To the best of my knowledge it won't hurt the disk drive.  It just won't work correctly until you get the right jumper.

First order of business is to install a 2nd network card (assuming that your old computer only has one). The next step is to install something like Smoothwall, Monowall, or IPCop. I've used Smoothwall extensively. It is easy to install and very easy to configure. There is copious documentation and step-by-step guides for the whole installation and setup process. In my experience, you can't go wrong with any of these three options.

There should be no difference, as they are basically the same program just updated, try re installing the drivers for the items or checking for updated drivers on the net

got to toolbar preferences  and just re add.  It will be fine :D

BEFORE you do anything check the compatibility of your components, sound card, video card, modem, then download the drivers for each and put on a CD. I know this the hard way when I updated my modem was not supported by XP i had dialup at the time, so I did not have internet til I bought a new modem, I had a creative modem which has more support than most, you may wind up buying more than you expect with this upgrade. that said have your drivers ready, and backup your data, Then format the drive do a clean install, The alternative would be to buy another HDD and set this one to slave, and your new one to master and install XP on the master, then you will have access to all your files

Well either way you are sharing the same line so what do you mean? Get a 2nd line. I don't think you'll get to much problem sharing the line with that setup though. Depending on what you are doing.

install it again & check that lines 'run from my computer' in custom/typical mode
