Not literally but I installed a sound card and when I boot up now all I get is the user name screen with no names, just the windows XP Logo? I can;t get to the desktop!!

I have done the following:

1. Removed the card
2. tried booting up in safe mode and last good config mode
3. Used the recovery console and tried FIXBOOT and FIXMBR
4. Entered the bios and trIEd disabling a few thigns there.

NOTHING WILL WORK!!

I can disable drives in the recovery console but which ones should I turn off?

( I have WINDOWS XP PRO and used a XP HOME disk to run the recovery console. My friend said this may have made it worse)

My client has a 3com 56k officeconnect modem. I can ping the unit and it works when trying to connect out to the internet. However when I try to access it remotely i.e from a browser on the same network via http://192.168.1.1 I get no page found (192.168.1.1 is the default gateway for teh network).

Why is this happening? - I need to be able to get in and change teh dial up access number as they have gone from 7 to 10 digit dialling.

ideas???

I am looking for a wireless keyboard and mouse that'll work @ 5 metre range reliably. PC World techie tells me most except the cheapest belkin ones works fine. Oh i don't like the curvey microsoft keyboards. I read a review that said with bluetooth if you need to change the bios such as change the boot order, u can't. And that rechargeable mice tend to be bulky. So it's IR or RF ?

OK -- here it is, August 2006. Blue Ray was established in 2003 (and later revised). Later in that same year, HD-DVD showed up. Now, 3 years later, both of these technologies not so "Cutting Edge" as say 3-D storage space and other formats on the horizon, is there any clear potential winner in this slow and Bureaucratic-laden race?

Before this, it was working silently and smoothly but out of a sudden, it starts making annoying and loud noise that is very disrupting. Could it be the fan? Is it repairable?

I hear this BS all the time on both sides, and want a straight answer. I know they are worth nothing unless you got about a thousand of them, but are they really solid gold tiny contact pins.
