- Windows XP >> Adobe Gamma Loader / Praxisoft WIZYWIGCan anyone tell me if "Adobe Gamma Loader" (in MSCONFIG | startup), needs to
be loaded at startup ?
I've ended up in complete confusion again regarding "color profiles."
My XP, in "Color Management," is showing the *.icc profile that was created
and named by the Adobe gamme *.icc creation procedure,
If I install and run a similar procedure using Praxisoft's WIZYWIG
http://www.normankoren.com/makingfineprints1B.html that ends up in MSCONFIG
| startup as well. Yet it's function is to create an *.icc profile which is
/ can be set in Windows Color management to be the default Windows monitor
color profile.

- Windows XP >> Disk Cleanup stallsWindows XP's Disk Cleanup is stalling on me all of a sudden.
I choose Drive C:, and then run the Cleanup. It starts at "Scanning:
Compress old files" and it sits there like an idiot for minutes and minutes.
Anyone else ever have this happen? How do I fix it?

- Windows XP Hardware >> Changing Sound Devices ShortcutI have 4 different sound devices connected to my computer (for Skype a USB
speaker phone and USB headset, for music a traditional speaker system, and a
cheap mic for making draft voice recordings).
I have these questions:
- it is very combersom to go through control panel each time I want to
change sound devices. Is there anyway to put a short cut on the desk top
(etc.) to click to choose which device?
- I don't understand the difference between the Audio tab and the Voice tab
in Sounds and Audio Devices in Control Panel. I always make changes in the
Voice tab, but would like to understand the differences.
- it is very combersom to change volumes when you change a device. Is there
a way to set the default volume on a device? Remember, since two of the
devices are USB, they may unpluged from the system from time to time.
Thanks for your help.

- Windows XP Security >> Administrator or not?I have had problems with WinXP Home Edition for the two
years since I've had it with installing new software,
etc. I often get a message like "access is denied" even
though I think I'm the administrator. When I do finally
successfully install software it does not show up in the
Programs menu on the Start button -- I have to install an
icon on the desktop to run it.
If I go to "User Accounts" ny name is listed as a
computer administrator. When I run regedit (something I
learned from this newsgroup) and go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Current
Version\Software, right-click, and click Permissions my
name is not listed as an administrator.
I'm in over my head here. Please help!

- Windows XP Hardware >> Caller IDHello,
I am currently running Windows XP Pro and also have an
external voice/fax/data full duplex modem. I am using
HotFax Message Center 5.0.1. Even though I have caller ID
working through a seperate answering machine and I know
it works via that, nothing is showing up through HotFax.
I used to have Caller ID working perfectly using the same
HotFax software using Windows 98 with a different modem.
I went to the SmithMicro website (for HotFax) and all I
could find is information for Windows 95, referring to
installing UnimodemV. I have downloaded the unimodemv.exe
file from Microsoft, but want to know if that would work
with Windows XP, before I install it, or if there is
something else I need to know and/or do. Thank you in
advance (:->}

- Windows XP Network >> How to see remote shard folders - and how to hide them ?The current situation in my small inhouse-LAN is as follows:
I can access remote shared folders if I enter directly the UNC path like
\\192.168.0.56\myremshare
But assume I would NOT know the name of the remote shared folder:
How can I list all available shares (even if my local account is not existing at the
remote computer but I know another, existing login name and password for the remote computer)?
Additionally is there a way to explicitely prevent the display of all MY OWN
shared folders to other computers/user in the LAN ?
I remember that there is a special setting for this behavior.
Are the folders visible or NOT visible by default ?

Windows XP Perform Maintain >> Hibernation Problem in XP Home
I am the sole administrator and user on a Compaq Presario
laptop and I like to maintain the unit in Hibernation
mode through most the day. Lately, when I enter
Hibernation, all seems to go normally, but after 4
minutes the computer turns itself back on (Windows
resume). At that point, when I proceed to the Shutdown
process, a dialogue box appears informing me that someone
else is using the computer. What's up with that? Thanks.

- Windows XP >> wuauclt.exe stuck on...Hi there,
Windows XP and the "wuauclt.exe" is stuck on in the task manager after boot
up. It makes the processor run at 100%. I can end the process manually and
that takes care of it for a while, then it comes back on again.
How do I get rid of it so I can make the computer run normally again?
Thanks,

- Windows XP Support >> XP Professional Installation ProblemI am updating from XP Home to XP Professional on a new Acer TraveMate
2308WLMi laptop.
I have encountered a 'Copy Error' that has come up which says
"Setup cannot copy the file migregdb.ex_. Ensure the disk labeled 'Windows
XP Professional Service Pack 2 CD' is in the drive selected below, or provide
the location where the file can be found."
I can see the file that it is looking for in the I386 folder but it is in
capitals rather than lowercase - is this the problem and how do I solve it?
Many thanks for any advice offered.

- Windows XP >> Change font size with control/mouse wheel stopped working in OE 6I have IE 7 & Outlook Express 6. I've always been able to change the font
size at will with control & rolling my mouse wheel. It still works with IE,
but for reasons beyond my comprehension, it stopped working in OE. I can
change the font size within an email account through options, & I can change
the font in an individual email through view. But the wheel was very
convenient, & it bothers me that it just stopped working. Rebooting didn't
help. Can anyone explain this or offer suggestions to fix the problem? Thank
you.

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> XP & WinDoctorI have a new system with WIN XP NT File System installed.
In the past on my Old Win98 system I regualry used
Symantec's WinDoctor from their Norton's System Works...I
didn't use much else...just this and their version of
Defrag and I kept my machine running smoothly.
My question is: Is there something comparable in WIN XP
that I can use.
Also, if not, are there any known issues with with XP NTFS
and Win Doctor.
My old NSW is not compatible with WIN XP and I dont; want
to have to go out and buy another version if there is
something in WIN XP itslef I can use.
I have search MS knowledge base and bascially come up with
nothing.
Thanks

- Windows XP Network >> WinXP IPsec ICF bug?!Hello,
I have encountered a strange problem.
I've set up a WinXP-Freeswan 1.98b ipsec tunnel
connection.
Everthing works fine if I disable Internet Connection
Firewall (ICF).
If I enable ICF I can only get ping replys. Firewall
blocks every oher connection. In pfirewall.log I can see
that the firewall drops TCP 40,48,60,68 ports.
How can I set ICF to allow protocols 47,50,51 (ESP,AH).
I can allow UDP port 500 (IKE) with no prob. Or specify
that the local addresses (192.168.x.x) are not filtered.
Thanx for your help

- Windows XP >> 'Can't find requested string' ?All right: so what is the point of XP(Pro) telling me this without telling
me what string it is looking for?!
There is an icon which I do not recognize in the Control panel - sort of a
blue lozenge - alongside which is 'Can't find requested string'.
A similar symbol appears with the same epithet on one of the
Display/Properties/Advanced tabs.
'Can't find requested string' also appears three times in the right click
screen dialogue.
The advanced tab version seemed to be monitor details, so I reloaded the
monitor driver, but this has made no difference.
How do I trace these faults and correct them?
Thanks in advance,

- Windows XP >> Catelog of Event IDs and SourcesI have been working on a problem involving some errors in my System log. I
was able to solve the problems, but it seems like the process was more
difficult than it should have been because I had a hard time figuring out
from the error code exactly which service was causing the problem. I had
some 4008 and 4010 errors and the LPDSVC service was the source. It turns
out that the TCP/IP Print Services service was not started. The problem was
that the information I found regarding these errors never indicated a
linkage between LPDSVC and the TCP/IP Print Services service. If it had,
starting up that service would have been my first move. It would be handy
if there was a list along the lines of the following:
Source Services
-------- ---------
LPDSVC TCP/IP Print Services
any other service that are related to LPDSVC
Is there a way to get a list, or is there a catalog somewhere, of all the
error sources and their corresponding services?

- Windows XP Security >> Can't type in login screenSomething happened a while back and now the keyboard doesn't work in the login screen. Clicking on a user without a password works. Trying to type a password doesn't. When using the traditional login, can't type user or password. Once logged in the keyboard works. Also tried a usb keyboard (regular one is PS2).
Any ideas?
Thanks

- customize >> Autocomplete web address problemI can't seem to get rid of the drop down box suggestions. I've cleared
history and still they appear. I've cleared all forms/passwords and they
still apear. I've downloaded and ran "cleaning" programs and still they
appear.
I can disable the drop down, but it reappears from time to time after an
upgrade to IE. My son went to some sites that are for adults and I would
really like to wipe them from my history.
HELP!
