Johnson Computer Sales, Service and Support

New computer.. AMD FX9590 black edition, 8 cores, 4.71 Ghz, DeepCool Assassin II cpu tower cooler, 8GB 1600, Corsair Dominator RAM, MSI Radeon RX 470 4GB video card, PNY 120 SSD boot drive and 2 data hard drives a 3tb and 1.5tb which should be sufficient storage.. Case: is a Cooler Master Masterbox 5t and the power supply is a EVGA SuperNOVA 750 G2 80+ GOLD 750W modular.

This system runs flawlessly, but cannot be put in a confined space and needs room to breathe.. So can't be used under a desk in a cubby hole. Testing is with Far Cry 5 at 1080p and runs perfect.

Price is $750

This is the old computer.. AMD Phenom II 1090T X6 6 core 3.2 Ghz 120tdp, Arctic Cooling Freezer XTREME cpu cooling tower, 12GB of Ripjaw 1600 RAM, MSI Radeon RX 470 4GB video card, and 2 small hard drives and a BluRay DVD burner.. It runs really well and I have no complaints.. It's for sale currently without the Bluray, but has a new Lightscribe DVDRW in it.. for $400 which is a steal.. I have other cases and parts to choose from. Similar case would be free..

Mining board reduced price.. From $299 to $109.95..

Here are the specs..

Problem sharing files on Win 98 - Windows XP machines with Windows 7 - 10 The problem..........

The problem is Windows 7 and above uses NTLM version 2 (NTLMv2) authentication. By default, NTLMv2 authentication is not enabled in Windows 2000 or in Windows 98. Therefore, this issue occurs.

The Solution...........

Enable NTLMv2 authentication on the Windows 2000- or the Windows 98-based computer. To do this, follow these steps:

I found you need to perform this on the older OS computer and the newer OS machine.. Otherwise, when you attempt to connect to the shared folder on the older system you will get access issues..

I was able to share a drive on a Windows 2000 Pro machine and able to access it using my Windows 10 OS machine by following these steps:

1. Start Registry Editor. To do this, click Start, click Run, type Regedit, and then press ENTER.
2. Locate and then click following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\LSA
3. Locate the LmCompatibilityLevel registry value.

If the registry value is not present, follow these steps to create it:
1. Select the registry subkey that is listed in step 2.
2. On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD Value.
3. Type LmCompatibilityLevel, and then press ENTER.
4. Set the DWORD value to 1. To do this, click Modify on the Edit menu, type 1 in the Value data box, and then click OK.
5. Exit Registry Editor, and then restart the computer.

I hope this helps anyone else having the same issue...
