Depends on the type of firewall, I would imagine.

dangercat · 21st March 2005, 17:16

My problem was the other way round got a picture but no sound
Sound was working ok on other things but just not when watching a DVD or the like
Downloaded a new DVD player and that sorted out the problem
Also decided to keep the new player as it seemed better then the windows one

Paper jam?

cnut.

It won't print something that was sent to it yesterday, but it won't delete it from the top of the print que either.
Although it's actually a lot more complicated than that. Really

Turn the print spooler service off, try deleting it then, turn the print spooler service back on

golden_blunder · 31st March 2005, 20:54

format & reinstall

DivX has codecs of its own...get a program called GSpot - tells you what codecs you need for DivX or otherwise.
