Freebsd - Samba - WinXP client issues

I believe that I have the 3c905c-tx. The 3 work servers are running Samba versions: one at 2.0.7 and two at 2.2.2. I will try this first and if I don?t have and issue here, upgrade at home. If I also have the same issue here, then it?s an Xp issue, I guess. Thanks again all. Dan

Freebsd - Samba - WinXP client issues

I have updated the nic drives for the Asus Nforce board in my HTPC and it made no difference for network traffic. And I have also installed the latest drivers from my 3com 905 in my other Windows XP computer. I just find it interesting that they both worked great with Windows 2000 sp3, witch is...

high multipliers on an Epox 8kha+ (via 266a)

thanks for the information Johncar. Have you ever used the shorting the two pins method first hand? I did this back in the day to up the Vcore on an old Cel 533 that ran at 920Mhz. That chip is still running strong 3+ years later. I used 1 strand of wire from an old ide cable. My guess is that...
