WOW! PPl are suggesting doing a repair XP? That sounds pretty drastic. Besides I've used repair XP before and although it may fix the system files it doesnt always perserve all your apps. The apps may be there after the repair but some of them dont work. Another point, the repair option wont be available in setup if SP2 is intalled. A manual repair can always be done by logging into windows via a c: prompt, but then again you have to know what is w

One question first, cause this could make a difference. Is the XP machine running SP2? If the XP machine is not using SP2, then #1.. make sure the XP computer runs the network setup wizard (in the control panel) to identify itself on your network.

Citizen boopish To blend in the shutdown flag that you have reduced to 1x1 pixel, do this: Say the upper right corner of you shutdown dialog is blue, use your color picker (in your paint program) to match that blue color, then use that color to fill the 1x1 pix graphic. Then "save" the graphic, and it should blend right in. Even if you dont match the color, It will show up only as a tiny dot, that unless it's a complete oppsite color, wont h

Sorry Master Apprentice causticFX, I didnt notice that you had suggested the 1x1 pixel thingy first.

As Super Wizop Fuzzy Logic stated, reduce the logoff/shutdown flag to a 1x1 pixel graphic (in your paint program). If you blend the color in with the upper right section of your shutdown dialog, it wont show at all. If you dont blend it, it will show as a tiny dot, but most people wouldnt even notice it.

Cool website! Thanks for the link. My first OS was plain old dos (no GUI). I then progressed to Win 3.1. How drab 3.1 looks now! I'm now at WinXP Pro, and thinking about installing linux if I can ever get this dang computer to function properly.

Also, one other thing to consider is SP2. I had the darndest time setting up printer sharing over a network with SP2. I finally got it figured out, but the problem was SP2 because all was working well before SP2. Check the printers manufacturers website for any info/drivers/installation instructions pertaining to SP2.......spontaneous rebooting though....still sounds suspicious.
