The network path was not found!


Problem:
"The network path was not found." is an error message pop up every time I access to our server.Some of my co-employee could not connect to the applications stored on server. I could not also connect to the its shared folders. I could not ping its name but I can ping its ip address. I change the IP address and restart the server but nothing happens.This is what I did and it works.

Solution:
This is how I fix the problem.I uninstall the lan/network card driver and install it again. Before doing this, make sure you have the right installer of you lan/network card driver. If you do not know the necessary installer, look for the brand and model of your motherboard. Search it on the internet and download the
lan driver/network card driver for your motherboard. The drivers of your motherboard can be download to the manufacturer's website.

Hope this solution work on yours.

0x0000000F4 Error


I am installing Windows XP operating system on a hard disk,
that use IDE connector cable. I started to install operating system
and it runs smoothly. But on the process of copying files, the monitor
turns into blue screen. It display the 0x0000000F4 Error. I search
in the internet what causes the problem. I check my hard disk and
notice that there is no jumper that sets the hard disk on master state.

I get a jumper and put it on the jumper settings that makes it master.
I started again the installation of operating system and now it works
smoothly.I finished to install operating system without error. It means
that if the hard disk is not set to master, Blue Screen with 0x0000000F4
 Error will appear.


Things to remember in installing Operating System.
1. Make sure that the IDE cable or Sata cable is firmly connected
    from hard disk into motherboard.
2. Make sure that the hard disk is set to master. Check the jumper
    settings if it on master settings.

Note: IDE type hard disk need jumper to set as master while
          Sata type hard disk does not need jumper, it automatically set as
          master or slave.

0x8004210B Outlook 2003 error


This is the error message appear when my co-worker send
email message on Outlook 2003.

0x8004210B error

It occurs so many time in my co-workers computer. But
there is a very simple solution to solve the problem.

Close and open the Outlook 2003. Yes, as simple as that.
This is the always solution I made to fix the problem.
0x8004210B error occures when Outlook 2003 failed to
connect to the email server. Closing and opening the Outlook
2003 will refresh the application to work properly.

If this doesn't solve your problem, let us discuss it.

Outlook 2003 hangs up when replying


My co-worker computer hangs up every time she reply an email
in Outlook 2003. This is my first time to encounter this kind of
problem in Outlook 2003. I close and open the Outlook 2003 but
the problem still exist. I restart the computer, open Outlook 2003
and reply to email. Outlook 2003 hangs up again.


This is the only one way I know to fix the problem, reinstall the
Outlook 2003. To make sure it will fix the problem, I uninstall
first the Microsoft Office  2003 and install it again. Reinstalling
the Microsoft Office 2003 will not affect the existing settings
of Outlook 2003. After I reinstall the Microsoft Office 2003,
I reply to an email and it works properly now. It does not hangs
up. I observe this computer for several days and it does not hang
up.

Computer Won't Start up


My co-worker called me up and told me that her computer won't turn on.
The computer was located on canteen area. I turned on the computer but
nothing happen. The fan of power supply unit is not spinning, there is no led
light and there is no beep sound.

This is what I did. I open up the case of system unit and saw lots of dust and
spider webs in it. I blows up the dust using my canned compressed air. I remove
the memory and clean its contact using eraser. I put back the memory and its
cover. I turned on the computer and now the computer starts up.

I recommend to always clean your system unit to avoid this kind of problem.
Always use canned compressed air instead of brush. Hope this can help to
solve your computer problem.
