Windows NT4 questions...
26.07.09 at 19:22:53
 
I have just finished re-installing my seedbox with  fully patched-up install of Win NT4 SP-6a.

Runing XP on this machine (yup, I'm using it for this post...) was painful with only 128MB RAM (chipset limitation).

If you want to give your NT4 a visual facelift - check THIS out:

NT4 Visual Update Project

http://awergh.110mb.com/download.html

Anyhow, I'm a newbie with NT4 and I have some questions...

1) How do you set Firefox 2 so it will "auto stop" hung scripts?
(actually, I'd like to know that about Firefox 3 too...)

2) I have a network share folder enabled in NT4 - but my XP machines can't see it. Is this to do with permissions, and if so - how do I fix it?

3) How do you disable anonymous logon?
    Are there other precautions I should take?
(already passworded the Admin. account and disabled Guest)

4) How do you turn off that annoying "service control manager" error messages?
(had to disable onboard sound as it's a resource HOG!)

5) Which versions of Quicktime and Adobe reader work with NT4?

6) Why does "empty recycle bin" occasionally gray itself out?

7) Can the un-removable Internet Explorer icon on the desktop be fixed using Tweak-UI, and if so - which version?

Cheers!

Damn, it's been years since I've touched NT4.

Try this link for any help... http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles_tutorials/nt4user.html

If I remember right, quick time for NT was stuck at ver 4. but could be very wrong on that. Google is prob your friend for those two apps. With Firefox, you might be out of luck with that one, never used it way back when so no clue. If your using it, surprised it even works with it actually.   Tongue

If you look up the event id in Event viewer on MS's site (example "Event ID 7000") you should be able to figure what is causing the prob in the first place.

Not sure about tweek-UI removing it, you can try this reg setting though and see... prob more dangerous then Tweek but...

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoInternetIcon"=dword:00000001

hope this helps out a little bit, it's been a while with NT man.   Tongue
