AskWoody_MVPThis is a function of the ‘Search’program at the web page. A lot of them will NOT allow one to scroll back or forward, using either the mouse or the IE or Netscape back and forward buttons on the tool bars.

AskWoody_MVPGo to http://www.pcnineoneone.com/cgi-bin/dcforum/dcboard.cgi%5B/url%5D and ask your question there. There are a lot of people that dual boot over at PC911. I am dual booting but I want to keep both. I think you will be running into all kinds of problems. All of my software is NOT compatable. Are you sure that ALL of yours is?

AskWoody_MVPTells us what programs you are having problems with.
MOST programs you can go in and set the option to use My Documents or they will remember what the last folder used was.

AskWoody_MVPQuestion:
How does network disruption affect Word’s file locations if they’re all pointing to local paths?I have only seen this happen when the network is used for file storage and/or for a ‘networked’ copy of MS Office is running.
As stated your files are saved on the local drive, is MS Office (Word) also on the local drive or are you using a ‘networked copy’?
How much memory do these machines have?
What is is running (other appl’s) when this happens?

AskWoody_MVPCpemma, you are correct, but you must tell Windows setup where to look by selecting the cd drive.

AskWoody_MVPI don’t know, on my wife’s new Win Me machine, when we did the new machine setup it remembered that it is on a network and has NOT asked for a password since. But my Win 98FE and Win2K (dual boot) machine I have to run TweakUI.

AskWoody_MVPI have been using Outlook since the 97 version in the Internet mode and never had this happen. Now that we have cable access Outlook 2000 is running almost all the time. In fact my wifes machine is running OL2K in the background and she has NOT had this problem.

AskWoody_MVPUse TweakUI and have Windows “Remember Password”.
If you do NOT have TweakUi you can download it here http://www.microsoft.com/NTWorkstation/dow…g/NTTweakUI.asp%5B/url%5DYes, this link is to the NT area, this version is good for Win 98FE, SE, Me, and 2K.
