Our company uses a database program that runs on SQL server. I use Access2002 and run some basic queries on the database to retrieve a list of data. We connect to all of this via a Citrix connection. Periodically users are experiencing very bad slowness issues, lockups, etc. When I contacted the company about it they said it is because I am using Access and my queries lock the tables and that cause other users who are actually in the program to experience their problems. The query I run just takes about a second or two to display the data. They said even if the query is completed, as long as it remains open it will keep those tables locked. Does this sound likely? If so, how do I make Access queries not lock the data. If it does not sound like the case to you, do you have any suggestions on a reputable site that may contain some facts to back that up. Unless I can start pointing them to prove that they may be wrong, they will never fix the problem and put the blame on my queries.

I just bought a used computer with Windows 2000. When I start it the first thing that shows is that it detected new hardware called 'Media Audio Controller'. It asks me to find the drivers for this device, but I really dont know where to look for them, or if I have to download them. Also I did not get any installation cds with the computer so I cant reinstall anything (I think). In the device manager, the audio control has a yellow exclamation.Right now I dont have any sound in my computer I think due to this problem. Can anyone help?

Hello-

I'm looking for a new computer game that is similar to the Monkey Island Series or Zoombinis (old games, I know).

I would like something that is not a "shoot them up" game (I can do that on my bf's PS2) and is more stratagy/logic, but entertaining, funny, and interesting.

Sim City type games won't work, because they are too boring for me. I don't like sitting there watching my city (or neighborhod grow), because it's too slow. Also, I would like to interact with the game all the time, except for the occasional 30 second movie (like in Curse of Monkey Island).

So... any ideas?

Thanks!!!
