The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    XP or Vista?..not sure of the steps in Vista but for XP go to Start--->Right click on 'My Network Places' and go to 'Properties'. Right click on the Connection and go to Properties. Put in the checks at the bottom of the screen that says "Show icon in notification...." and "Notify me when.....". Press ok.
