1/9     Does anyone know whether Win95 and 98 have problems with each other's
        master browse lists?  I connected one of each via a crossover cable
        so my grandfather could share his printer, and while the Win98 box
        thinks the 95 machine is master browser and sees it just fine, Win95
        sees neither itself nor the 98 box.  Both have all the requisite
        M$ NBT bits installed, and both have the print & file sharing
        settings at browse master->automatic, LM broadcast->yes.  I tried
        several variations on this and couldn't even get the 95 PC to show
        up in its own network neighborhood.  Any hints?  -John
        \_ ObBIKE!/LINUX!
        \_ Install win95 service packs.  There's a huge pile of networking
           bug fixes in there.  A 95 machine w/out patches is lucky if it can
           ping localhost much less connect to anything else.
                \_ Thank you.  -John

8/9     On Win ME, something happened.  When I copy files, the file name
        gets copied but the whole filename gets capitalized (every letter).
        What happened?  How can I fix this?
        \_ why are you using WinME?  seriously.  at least use Win2k.  Jesus.
           anyway: where were you copying from?  local HD or network share?
           were you copying via Explorer, or were you copying from the command

5/21    Is it worth buying a new wintel PC right now or should I wait until
        the Pentium4/Athlon prices drop more? I looking into buying a 1GHz
        Pentium3 or similar system, I just went and configured a Dell Dimension
        with 933MHz CPU, 256MB RAM (SDRAM) 32MB GeForce2. No monitor, with
        RedHat Linux, no windows. Came out at like $985
        \_ Sounds about right, you can probably save $100 or $200 if you

9/26    Any comments on a problem someone just sent me in the mail:
        'HIMEM.SYS is missing  Please make sure this file is in your windows
        directory' then the computer opens in DOS not windows 95 (which I
        went back to after all my win 98 problems).  Anyway, I've checked
        the wondows directory and the himem.sys file is there so I don't know
        what the problem is.  Any suggestions?

9/10    Does anyone else have a problem Resuming from a Suspend in
        Windows 95 with an ethernet card installed?  It hangs on
        my computer; I notice that msgsrv32 is Not Responding.
        Short of a coerced upgrade to Windows 98, is there a bug fix
        for this?  Please e-mail me, thanks.  --pcjr
        \_ really, son.  it's windows.

8/24    Question. Which ISP is good for 24 hours and is reliable? I am
        willing to spend up to $30/month. Also, which auto password and
        auto Windows 95 dialer is good to download? Thanks.

        The company said the following in court filings: [...] It
        planned to integrate its Internet Explorer technologies "long
        before" Netscape Communications even existed, refuting the
        government's claim. In a conference call, Microsoft
