Free Computer Help - DjPete - 21-06-2008
Yep thats right.
I will offer free help for your PC.
Types of probs would be...spyware, slow computer, problems with software or maybe you just want me to tweak it for performance.
How is it done.
Email me with your problem and I will let you know if I think I can help.
djpete(at)tpg.com.au
Basically you make a free account at www.logmein.com
email me your username and password.
I will have a go.
Uninstall the software when you are done.
Whats in it for me?
Nothing, I just hope that buy doing you a favour you may mention or recommend me to your friends if or when they are looking for a good quality host or web designer.
That's it.
No catches.

Thanks for your help bloke.

Thx Pete at the moment im just using windows remote desctop conection with the ip address will give logmein a try and let you no
RE: Free Computer Help - DjPete - 22-06-2008
the benefit with logmein is
1. Use it anyware even if you have work restrictions for example because it is all done through simple browser interface.
2. Less chance of having any compatibility issues with your pc and your work pc connecting as you are experiencing.
3. All you need is an internet connection anywhere in the world. Just login at logmein and a activex addon is installed and thats it.

That's all good Pete if you can actually connect to the net.
My problem is the 2nd PC in the daughters room now won't connect to the wireless network.
It was connecting no probs, I moved the PC while I replaced her desk, then put it back. Now it won't connect. The only thing I changed was the ariel on the network card. But that's not the problem. It can "see' the network, & the signal strength is max.
Iv entered & re-entered the network password. Double checked it & entered it again.
Just won't connect. Stuffed if I know why.

If the network card in the slave computer (your daughter's) is seeing the host PC but can't login, I suggest you try renaming your daughter's pc computer name and then add the new name to your host pc as an allowable partner.
If this is the only slave on the network, you might want to try changing the password master for the network access as well.
I.E. like setting up a new home domain.
I won't go into specifics because they are too variable to be precise.
(Why did you need to change the aerial?)

Thanks Busgo.
Will give it a go.
I have 4 PC's in total on the network.
The mian unit, My daughters, My lappy & my work lappy.
I had a "remote area" ariel on this one cause in the house in Brissy it was a fair distance from the wireless point & the house was all double brick. (several internal walls as well), so reception wasn't good.
Here in Melb it's only i the next room so doesn't need the high sensitivity ariel.
RE: Free Computer Help - Louwai - 23-06-2008
Well Busgo & Pete,
It's now working. I thought I'd try something else.
I got a long cat5 cable & ran it from the main PC to the daughter's pc. All worked, no probs.
Then I just unplugged the cable, tried to connect to the wireless again (entered the same network key) & bugger me, it works fine.
Flamin amazing........
