    Add/remove programs problem

    When I try to run the add/remove programs module from control panel in XP SP1, I get a Parser Message that says: Value creation failed " at line 472 I can't really think of anything I changed that would have borked it up like this, although I did install Intel's motherboard monitoring software yesterday. Any ideas? P4 2.6 800 MHz FSB, HyperThreaded Intel D865PERL mobo 512 MB DDR400 Windows XP Pro SP 1

    Delivery failure notices

    Starting a couple of weeks ago or so, I've been getting random batches of "delivery failure notices" from several random mail servers that I've never heard of before and aren't on my address book. I've looked at the messages that are supposedly being sent out by my address (my address is synthetic@***.net), and they appear to be advertisements trying to sell prescription drugs. I currently run norton antivirus 2003 with updated definitions, am behind a linksys router, and run the new version of ICF (I'm a winxp sp2 tester)... and so far I haven't seen any virus activity on my machine. I also downloaded "The Cleaner" to check for trojans and it didn't come up with anything. Am I simply the victim of a spammer spoofing my address in the From field? How else would I double check to make sure there's not a virus on my machine sending these emails out?

    Delivery failure notices

    I do run Ad-Aware every few days and get rid of anything it finds, I'm still getting these delivery failure notices daily but I'm fairly certain it's just some spammer spoofing my address. I've checked running processes, startup items and the whole 9 yards without finding anything suspicious. Die spammers.

    RAM speeds

    Basically I'm looking to buy some more RAM, and I've had my eye on the Corsair paired kit of DDR400. I also see RAM manufacturers selling RAM that is faster than DDR400, like PC3500 modules, etc. Are those for people who intend to overclock? Right now my setup is this: P4 2.6 HT/800FSB Intel D865PERL Mobo 512MB generic DDR400 I don't intend on overclocking anytime soon.. should I just get PC3200 or are the faster RAM speeds like 3500 beneficial even to non-OC'ers?

    Default ATi Radeon 9800 Pro 128mb clock speeds?

    For some reason this is what powerstrip is saying mine is running at: Memory clock - 337.50 MHz Engine clock - 378.00 MHz Does that memory clock setting look low to anyone

    RIS services

    You need to have a DHCP server running on your network and the network cards on the RIS clients need to be PXE compatible (I think).

    I tried restoring to yesterday's system checkpoint (before I installed the Intel software), and I still get the error. ;(

    norton ghost + win98 question

    I have a task at hand of creating a master ghost image for about 30 computers, all with the same hardware. I know in Windows 2000/XP you can use Sysprep.exe to strip the uniqueness and force windows to rebuild its plug-n-play hardware database, but what utility will let me do this to a win98 install? Do I even need to? TIA

    NTFS Security Permissions Question

    After Installing Windows 2000 Pro, I removed the default security permissions on each of my partitions (Everyone - Full Access). I then applied custom permissions to the Administrators local group, SYSTEM, and Creator Owner. Since everything in WIN2K/NT is done by SID's, will I effectively lock myself out of my own partitions if I reformat the primary partition and install XP?

    Dynamic Disks

    Dynamic disks allow for such features as disk spanning and disk striping (software RAID-0 type solution). Volumes that were created as dynamic disks can also be expanded.
