First, make sure the BIOS recognizes the drive during POST. If you see a logo instead of messages, you'll need to enter the BIOS setup to verify this. The exact way to do this differs from system to system. If you don't know, try hitting either F1, F2, DEL, CTL+ESC, CTL+BACKSPACE, etc. right after you hear the beep. If the BIOS doesn't recogize it then it's not a problem in Windows.
I'll try this.

If none of that works, then plug everything in, and start Windows. Make sure you have the folder C:\WINDOWS\Options\Cabs (if it's an OEM install you should). There should be at least 70 something cab files in there. If there are, then go to the device manager and remove your CD-ROM drive(s) and channel controlers (IDE??) for the mother board. Restart Windows so it'll reinstall the drivers it's using.
I tried this but I think it is a hardware problem and the comp is like 8 or 9 years old so I don't want to lose it but don't want to spend alot of money

The bios recognizes it is connected and the driver thing doesn't work but I going to check some jumper settings.

is it possible to transmit only first 5 bits of a character through RS232.
The problem is:
For example the binary equivalent of 'U' is 0101 0101. I want to transmit only last five bits (i.e) 10101. I tried this by setting databits to 5 and stopbits to 1 or 2.but i am getting 0001 0101. i observed this on CRO.
can you please suggest the solution. ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

Make out the first 3 bits with 0xE0 before transmitting the byes?

Hi Guys
I have following technical question. Maybe someone has the knowhow, so I wouldn´t have to worry about seeking further
I have a server, he receives as input parameter a port number. So I want to find out what process established the connection through this port.
More rigurous:
I would like to find a method about determining a Process ID knowing a port number of a connection opened by this process.
Any hint would be highly appreciated.
Thanx

One way to do this is to write a filter driver for the transport layer and maintain stats on sockets/processes. Sysinternals offers a utility that does this (href=http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/tdimon.shtml), but no source.
But for the less rigorous case, can you encode the PID into PID + large_num (where large num = say, 10000) and bind to that port number before connecting? Then the server can call getpeername and deduce the PID.
Might require some massaging if one process opens more than one connection.
Why needest thou this?

Thanks a lot.
I will do it with your first approach. The whole thing is based on the need to make an app work in a Terminal Services environmnent. It's something strange, I got a telnet session on a foreign OS. From there I launch a command like RunWord. The process of this command retrieves through native API's the IP adress and client port number of the telnet session . These parameters are sent to a service on the Terminal Server, that now has to decide on what Session to open Word. So one approach is to search for the PID of the open port, to get from this PID the SessionID and to launch Word in this Session.
All I need is a roadmap and then I might be able to find a clue.

I need to come up with a way to manually start and stop an NT driver from within a program when the user does not have the administrative priviledge to do so.
It is necessary to restrict the user's access, (i.e admin priviledges), but it also necessary for the drivers our software uses to be in manual start mode, and start and stop from within the program.
Is this a possibilty? There must be some workaround...
Thanks.

How 'bout a service running with the proper privilege that does the work - the user app could communicate with it through a socket, perhaps, with requests to start and stop.

Can anyone tell me why my BIOS reports 512MB RAM and Windows Reports 511MB RAM?
This happens on my Win 98 machine at home, I'm running Windows 2000 at work but I haven't had a chance to confirm if it has the same behavior.
I hesitate to mention that I've looked on MSDN and not found anything because I know as soon as I do, someone will post a link to the appropriate information

Well, Windows XP Professional reports 512MB (BIOS) and 512MB (Windows). I wonder if this is a Windows 9x issue?

Well on my machine at work,
Windows2k is shows 522,544 KB (535085056 bytes)
512MB = 524288 KB = 536870912 bytes
536870912-535085056 = 1785856 (1744 KB)
a little math shows that 1744KB are missing, somewhere.
now i would expect the reverse (640K on the mother board).
So unless windows is finding bits that are defective and removing them
(the pages they are in?) from the memory pool, i can not explain it.

I believe the missing one meg is dedicated to your graphics card.

Its cause of the difference in taking 1 MB as 1024 KB and as 1000 KB. I think so anyway.

How do i create a logon script?
Any online tutorials or examples would be gratefully accepted!
.NET or not .NET? MFC is the question......

A logon script is basically a batch file, VBScript file ( i think u can use them or an executable. Just remember that Win9x clients can't run batch files with a .cmd extension.
The best way of doing it is ethier attach the script to each user individually using the Active Directory User Manager or using the group policy editor and move the users into the appropriate users into that group. Once done you can attach logon / logoff scripts to the whole group.
I seem to remember that the Win2k server help had a little information on doing it - thats how I worked it out anyways.

If all clients in a LAN are assigned an IP address from a DHCP server,how can I enumerate ip address of all clients connecting to the server?
I can not use broadcasting. 
Thx ahead for any information.

I am having an intermittent problem with an application that 'hangs' and thought that the PWALK Platform SDK tool would help me debug things.
However although I got the project to compile it doesn't seem to work. I am running on NT 4 and there is an MSDN article that suggests this only works in 16 bit land. Has anyone got this to work on NT, or has used an equivalent tool?

I know from all the standard written works of art that the Windows API knows about such things as WM_LBUTTONDOWN and WM_RBUTTONUP, but there are three-button desk rodents out there. Does the API define WM_MBUTTONDIDDLE or some such equivalent?
|
|
|
|

There's WM_MBUTTONxxx for the middle button (#3), and WM_XBUTTONxxx for all buttons after the third. The WM_XBUTTONxxx messages send an id to indicate which button was pressed.

Is there any way for an application which runs as a console app (i.e. command line application) to detect that the DOS BOX he runs in, is closing?
i.e. click on the little x?
