    The light on the motherboard is probably just a 5 v LED. That doesn’t mean your PSU is good as it must provide several different voltages at sufficient current for the PC to work.

    When a PSU does what yours is doing it’s usually because the PSU is detecting a problem with the motherboard and shutting off. Or it means the PSU is bad or going bad and only thinks there’s a problem with the motherboard. Or it means both are bad.

    So there ya go.

    I get this, in Firefox and other browsers, and usually when I am browsing Ebay with my speakers on.

    PROBLEM SOLVED, I think; It’s a darned sidebar advertisement in Ebay (possibly other sites too!) to do with the University of Northampton who have a honey bee as their logo, or are something to do with research into bees.

    PLEASE dont change settings or re-install windows etc… it’s perfectly safe though annoying and intrusive. I just turn my speakers down!

    re: “it might as well be written in a different language because I have absolutely no idea what them formulas were going on about.

    The language is known as VBA – Visual Basic for Applications. It is the language used to write macros for Microsoft Office applications such as Excel, Word, PowerPoint, etc. When used within Excel, a macro allows you automate tasks as well as accomplish many other things that formulas can not do.

    As a very simple example, try this:

    1 – Open a new spreadsheet
    2 – Enter some values in A1:A3. Numbers, names, formulas, whatever
    3 – Right click the Sheet tab for the sheet and choose View Code
    4 – Paste this VBA Macro into the pane that opens:

    Sub MsgBoxCode()
    'Loop through A1:A3, Show Value In Message Box
      For nxtRw = 1 To 3
        MsgBox "The Value In " & Range("A" & nxtRw).Address & " is " & Range("A" & nxtRw)
      Next
    End Sub

    5 – Click Run on the toolbar.

    This simple macro is just an example of how VBA could be used to accomplish your email goal. Instead of using instructions to present a message to the users, instructions would be used to send an email based on some specified criteria.

    This link shows some code that seems to be very close to what you would need. Obviously it will need some tweaking, but if the description of the task is very close to your requirements, let us know the details and we’ll see what we can do.

    Being knowledgeable in networking doesn’t make one so in the area of installing drivers in DOS. Regardless, thanks Dave! 🙂

    I cut my teeth on DOS but it’s been 17 years since I touched a DOS based machine. What I do remember off the top of my head is your two major configuration files for DOS in which all hardware is/was loaded and they are:
    1) config.sys
    2) autoexec.bat

    As to which one you would load the NIC drivers in, I have no memory.

    I can make two suggestions though at this point.

    We have four PC’s here running legacy dos applications

    Suggestion 1: Look at one of the other DOS boxes and check which file the NIC drivers load in and ensure you’re duplicating that in your “new” DOS box.

    Suggestion 2: Find a way to update, upgrade or flat out replace the legacy applications.

    Mind you, if you figure out how to get them to run virtually, that solves the issue nicely as well and once you have one working, you can spin up as many as you need, and have resources for at a moments notice.

    Sorry I couldn’t be of more help. Good luck.

    It matters not how straight the gate,
    How charged with punishments the scroll,

    I am the captain of my soul.

    The fact that you can ping the server tells me your issue is not a network issue.

    So my question is, are you sure the directory in question has been shared properly? Can other devices connect to it? If so, try mapping the drive using the IP address.

    ie: \\192.168.1.4\[shared folder]

    For example, lets say you have a shared directory on the server as follows: C:\files\shared When mapping to it, you would map as follows:

    \\192.168.1.4\files\shared

    For some odd reason in Windows, shares on the network do not always appear in “Network” Also, not all devices show up. I have a NAS device that never appears in “Network” although all my PC’s do. So when I map to it, I do so using the IP as in my above example.

    It matters not how straight the gate,
    How charged with punishments the scroll,
    I am the master of my fate;
    I am the captain of my soul.
