Yeah? We get that when I view files on a Novell file server, which has its own compression tools, via XP. So XP picks that up and displays them accordingly? Wow, I'm impressed.

If that server's running Netware 6.x, then it probably masquerades as an SMB box through NFAP, so it's not XP you should be impressed with. B)

I've been running into a problem. I bought a HP a1130n desktop with XP Professional Media Center Edition OS. I've been trying to open the MS Works word processor but all that happens is the splash screen shows up for a second then closes. I'm able to use other Works programs, but not the word processor.

The most work I've ever done with Works was to immediately uninstall it from any PC I've found it on, so not sure what's going on there. If it's a new PC, go to HP or the reseller and make their lives hell. It's the only way they'll learn.

Yes, but since Hobbes has Windows Media Centre I used my Batman-powers to reason that he probably isn't using Works 97.

And isn't "Microsoft works" a complete oxymoron?

yes but it's thanks to 'Our Beloved Bill' that I have a job (I'm in windows support at the moment)so I won't have a word said against him....by the way there are 5 of us in the windows team and about 35 in the Mac team supporting about the same number of users read into that what you will....

People who want their computers to work simply and easily are so dumb.
I can only imagine the unholy nightmare that a watered-down version of the Office suite might entail. Could the "help"-y paper-clip thing get any more retarded?
