Solving computer problems

For Windows NT:

2.Select Intel EtherExpress PRO Adapter, and click Startup...

3.Select Disabled.

4.Click OK.

5.Click Close.

6.Close all windows.

7.Restart the computer by turning it off and on again.

Problem: Your computer does not enter standby or hibernation mode.

Solution: Check if any option has been selected to disable your computer from entering standby or hibernation mode.

Problem: The computer does not enter standby mode after the timeout period set with the timer under Windows 98 or Windows NT®.

Solution:

For Windows 98:

The generic CD-ROM or DVD-ROM driver for Windows 98 accesses the internal CD-ROM drive or DVD-ROM drive every 3 seconds to see if a CD-ROM is inserted in the CD-ROM drive or DVD-ROM drive. This prevents your computer from entering standby mode even after a timeout. To prevent this from occurring, do the following:

1.Click Start.

2.Move the cursor to Settings and Control Panel.

3.Click Control Panel, and then double-click System.

4.Click the Device Manager tab.

5.Click the + mark of CD-ROM.

6.Double-click the name of the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM.

7.Click the Setting tab.

8.Clear the Auto insert notification check box.

Windows 98 no longer detects the insertion of a CD-ROM or a DVD-ROM automatically.
