Mine started that crap this past Saturday night. Like Tommie cleaned scrubbed whatever - still happened. About wore my refresh botton out. Screwed everything. At times I couldn't get Google to come up the first time. Finally went in and run my slider all the way down - accept all cookies. Stopped all that nonsense. Until I get this weird mother figured out. Bout had me pulling my hair out.

No it's not on line. Don't have a modem in it. I have a few spare ones tho, I'll look them up and see if it will talk. When I said it was slow - it's a 12MHz machine 80286, 640kB of ram and that ST-251 wasn't a barn burner. I'll just have to see what I can do. Let you know , down the road. It's running DOS 3.11, had to put that in to be able to have a 1.44MB floppy drive - they were new back then. Good Microsoft or Logitek mouse would run you $50 to $75 dollars. Good Old Days -HUH !!!!!!

Here are the pics. Hope they come out. This is my first attempt on this forum with this site.
SEAGATE ST-251-1 40MB

No VOIP. 56K hooked up just disabled. Was hoping thats all I had to do - was just enable and go to it. Really appreciate the quick response php. Glad to know; no interference w/7000.
Once again - Thanks

Tried faxing today - didn't make it. Forgot it had to go over phone line. My 56K V92 Modem is in disabled mode right now. To fax - all I have to do is enable my dialup modem?? Do I have to do something to my DW7000??
Took two tries and listening to a dial tone for it to dawn on me I needed to do something I hadn't done - whatever that is!!!!! Any ideas??? Thanks in advance

Found my spare Seagate that goes in my Hyundai 80286 comp. Made some pics but my posting site is down right now - maybe later. This is a trip down memory lane.
SEAGATE ST-251-1, 5 1/4' platters, 1/2 ht., 40MB. Price in 1988 was $ 479.00 - sure hurt to buy it then. Still works - little on the slow side tho. Little heavy too.

You mean no-one has logged in with a 8088 machine still running!!!! Also; got to be some C-64 machines still alive too. Remember the old giant floppy drives, the old 1.2's and their predecessors(?sp), full height HDD. Got to be some oldies in some closets out there. A room full of computing power that you can carry in your pocket now. Remember the old DEC machines that you programmed manually, punch cards, 9-pin dot matrix printers - long time ago. Brings a tear to your eye - doesn't it!!!!! Just think - a single hard drive for your computer with a capacity of 1TB ( 1000GB )

Wonder if I cound get my old 1985 Hyundai 80286 ( 12MHz ) with 640K and a 40MB Seagate HDD to hook up and run on this DW7000??? Prob. one of ya'll could I just don't know if I can. Oldie but a Goodie????? Would prob. be a struggle!!!! I've got the mem. chips to put a meg. in it but it splits at 512 - 512. Got a spare Seagate 40MB HDD in it just for kicks. Running Dos 3.11 in it.

Are there operational differences in various NIC cards? Any advantages of one over another. Using AOpen PCI 10/100, AON-325D.
Thanks

Tommie: Looks like the adjustments might have finally kicked in a little while ago.> Was just crusing at my usual 850 to 900 then all of a sudden it jumped. HOPE IT HOLDS!!!!!!!

Tommie : Shouldn't the 6000 U/L as fast as the 7000? Here are some of my latest. It seems like my TCP adjustments have leveled at about 850/127. You think I can do any better or should I just leave well enough alone???

Have you got any type of web accelerator running?? If so, disable and retry.
Try some of the mirrors and see what they give you.

Got to looking - Don't really know if I have Google Accelerator on this puter how can I find out? Looked at the Web - didn't see how to tell if I have it installed !!! Why would Speakeasy be the only affected??? I'm Happy with my 800+/124+. If it went any faster it would probably cause me WORK.
My Home Plan says up to 700/128 with DW7000. SO, I'm Happy with what I've got.
Jim
OK about cache - didn't know - just reporting what I saw if it would help.

I have the latest ver. on the Web( I think ). Had that struggle with DWay.
Updated 3-10-06
Running Ver. 1.5.0
Build 1.5.0_06-b05
But will check Java again.
Thanks
Jim
Yep. Latest update ! ! ! 2:28pm CST

Only accelerator I have is for Bellsouth Dial-up and its disabled. IF; I have one running the other mirrors would be affected also wouldn't they??? I just don't know - I don't totally believe them but like I said my cache shows 16+MB when I run Speakeasy per run - so something is going on --- with Speakeasy's reports and a dollar I can buy a dollar bar of candy --- is as far as it goes and means.
