Where does the IP configuration tool go? Windows 95/98/Me provides a Winipcfg.exe tool that makes it easy to check IP network details, but Windows XP no longer provides this tool. Some cable modems (Cabel Modem) require the user to provide the MAC address of the network card. Without Winipcfg, where can I find the Mac address?
Open "Accessories→System Tools→System Information" from the "Start" menu. . Oddly enough, the Mac address is hidden in the "Components → Network → Adapters" section, not the "Internet Settings" section, which mainly provides information related to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, the data provided in the "System Information", including the IP address, is not allowed to be modified.
In addition, Windows XP also has a similar function and Winipcfg command-line tool Ipconfig. Select "Run" from the "Start" menu, type "cmd" and press Enter. You can also see the MAC address by executing Ipconfig/all on the command line (but here the Mac address is called "Physical Address"). Use Ipconfig's /Release and /Renew options to release or reassign IP addresses.
Why can't I save JPEG
Sometimes, the page is obviously a JPEG format graphic, but whether you use the image toolbar of IE 6, or right click on the graphic and select "Save Image" ", IE only provides an option to save the graphics format - BMP files. The BMP format greatly increases the size of the file, and converting JPEG to BMP does not help improve the quality of the image. If you want to use it on your own web page or forward it to a friend, the best choice is of course the original. JPEG format.
IE They are not allowed to save the picture in JPEG format, the reason is very simple - it's temporary folder full. In the IE, select the menu "Tools → Internet Options", select "Delete Files" in the "General" tab, and then click "OK". Try it again when you're done, and IE allows you to save JPEG images.
Where is the "unread" message hidden?
When you start Windows XP, sometimes the welcome screen will tell you that there are XX unread emails, and you are not connected to the Internet at all. The box is empty. What is the matter?
Click on the unread email link on the welcome screen to find out which email accounts Windows XP calls unread emails. If you always see two unread messages on the welcome screen, they are likely to be automatically generated welcome messages in Outlook Express or Hotmail mail accounts.
Accounts containing unread mail can also be found under the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\ CurrentVersion\\UnreadMail key. If you don't want XP to track unread emails in a mail account, just delete the email account here; if XP thinks that an account has new mail but it doesn't, just set the corresponding Message Count key to 0. .
create a Message ExpiryDays sub-key and below it in UnreadMail set to 0 to prohibit XP welcome screen displays unread messages. However, modifying the registry is not very convenient, and it is simple and safe to modify with TweakUI. Install and start TweakUI, select Logon→Unread mail, and clear the Show unread mail on Welcome screen option.
Reinstalling IE6 from the installation disk

If this command is invalid, start the registry editor Regedit, find HKEY_LOCAL_MacHINE\\ SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\ActiveSetup\\Installed
Components\\, change the value of this key from 1 to 0, XP will automatically start to install IE.
