- Windows XP >> DVD won't work.I have a Matsushita read only DVD that will not be read by
WMP it says I lack a ceertain file but where do I get this
from?
The DVD was an OEM from a place that has gone bust and
Pioneer/Matsushita won't support the driver.

- Windows XP >> Hiden folders in temporary internet files folderSome portions of XP Pro (Eg. Explorer, Search for files) ignore the folders
in the temporary internet files folder. There is no indication that there
are any folders there. Using the command prompt to set the current directory
to the temporary internet files folder you can see the hidden folders. All
relevant folder options controlling hiding files and folders, hiding
protected operating system files, etc., have been set to show everything
possible.
Questions: Is there a way to control this behavior? If something is there, I
want to see it. Are there other folders that get this special treatment?

- Windows XP Support >> Screen save(If this is the wrong place to ask this, please direct me to the right
place!)
In Windows XP screen save you can set up a 'slide show' extracting random
images in an apparently random sequence from a defined folder. Is there any
way of setting it up so that it shows all the images within the folder
(before it starts again), preferably in sequence?
Thanks

- Windows XP Hardware >> USB 2.0 Flash Drive and my Floppy DriveOkay when I use my Pine Flash Drive that I got for
christmas, or rather when I pull files off of it, the
floppy drive just goes out of control with all of the
clicking and griding noises that it makes when its
pulling stuff off of the floppy.
WTF is this?
- 11
- Windows XP Network >> SP2 and Internet accessI have a long list of issues with my machine right now and tried to remedy
them by backing up and reistalling windows XP. However, all is not well with
audio, video and various other drivers.
Error reporting recomends that I install SP2 but when I do so my internet
connection, although present, is very limited in that it 'comes-and-goes'. I
have a 1meg connection supplied by Blueyonder (Telewest) but the issue is
apparently not with them but with SP2. I have now removed SP2 and the
connection is fine again.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? Can anyone perhaps advise me as
to what is causing the connection issue?

- Windows XP Setup >> Says I need to activate Windows but already activeI lost my hard drive and during the re-installation, it
locked up after 2nd re-installation. Third time was charm
but it did not ask for a key code. Now I get a message
after rebooting that Windows XP need to be activated. When
I click on it, it then says, Product is already activated.
I did try it under the administrator account and no go. I
have 25 days to go and it took 4 day to get it almost back
to normal. Any quick fixes for this problem?
Thanks in advance,
Ed

- Windows XP Support >> Windows crashes before login screenMy PC boots up normally until the point where the cursor appears on th
screen (just before the login screen appears) then it shuts down an
reboots again. It will repeat this process for as long as you leave i
switched on.
I tried doing a repair from the XP disc but it asks for th
administrator password which I don't have, and don't remember settin
when I upgraded from Win 98. Current OS is XP Pro, I presume the fil
system is fat as it was an upgrade from 98. :mad

- Windows XP >> cache questionI use google a lot and I notice that it keeps track of search parameters. I
know that this is some cache stored on my machine and have tried clearing it
using the internet options dialog box, under the general tab but clearing
history, cookies and temp files has no effect on this. Where is this info
stored and how do I clear it?
Thanks In Advance

- Windows XP Support >> Multiple Display Layout Keeps ResettingI have an ASUS notebook with an Ati Mobility x1600.
To problem I have is when I change the layout of the monitors in the
Settings dialogue, the layout resets to the default when I lock then unlock
the notebook.
When I set the layout, I try to have the secondary display to my left, but
when I unlock the notebook, Windows keeps resetting the secondary display to
my right.
Is there a way I can stop this?
My thanks in advance.

Windows XP >> Minimizing Open Applications to Taskbar
For a while I have not been able to minimize an application to the taskbar
for re-expanding later.
When I minimze an application it disappears completely from the screen and
does not appear on the taskbar. If I click on the application icon a new
window with a newly loaded application appears.
I am guessing I may have "reset" a setting accidentally somewhere along the
way, but can't figure out what it is.
Any ideas? Thanks.

- Windows XP Support >> Printer ProblemHi all,
I have WindowsXP Professional I formated and reloded last week and all is
fine except whenever I boot my computer it "finds a new printer"
I have a Canon i320 installed and with the latest drivers..
When I installed the i320 Windows "found i320" but this new message just
says "found printer" (no model numnber).
It finds this ghost printer whether my i320 is turned ON or Off connected
to the pc or disconnected to the pc.
I have tried deleting the i320 and letting Windows re-detect the printer and
it finds the "i320" then on the same boot it also finds the "printer" so
then I have to go through the motions of letting it look for drivers and the
saying Drivers can't be found and then there was an error installing new
hardware....
This is not a major problem, this is just irritatting, the computer works
fine but I just don't want the hassel of anymore..
Thanks

- customize >> function keyboard re-assignhow to re-assign (re-map) the keyboard function keys..??
have keyboard with internet buttons but there are some
function keys that are wasted space.
want to save some (rename - refresh - resize) but in
documents would like to have keys do stuff like copy-
paste-save-close etc. also in web maybe changing to
popular sites (similar to links).
using ctrl/alt/shift with keys is good but to confusing
sometimes. why use 2 keys when one is easier.
seems like moving hand off mouse might relieve carp
tunnel in wrist.

- Windows XP Network >> Help! Internet Explorer BrokeI am running WinXP Pro. Had a problem with Norton software and tried
to remove it. Long story short... I reinstalled WinXP Pro SP2 on top
of my confused system.
Then I found more traces of Norton, and I used the standalone Norton
Uninstaller.
Now I have a system that is basically at SP2 level. I also have
ZoneAlarm Security Suite running.
I try to get upgrades by clicking on Windows Upgrade in Win Explorer.
The first thing that happens is I get an error message that says:
"Windows cannot find '(null)'. Make sure you typed the name
correctly....."
This opens a blank window. I click OK on the error message and then I
get the Microsoft Update Home page.
I click "Express" . It checks for updates and then comes up with a
"Download and Install Now" button. I click it and I get a window that
says it is installing. Then a message says "the following updates were
not installed" Microsoft Windows Installer 3.1"
And this is as far as I can get.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in Advance.

- Windows XP Network >> Internet Explorer 7 won't installI recently went to the Microsoft Updates page to update my Internet Explorer
to version 7. Overnight, it downloaded from the website. When I returned to
the computer a while later, I proceeded to install it. The computer went
through the whole installation process and asked me to restart. I did. When
I restarted the computer, Internet Explorer version 7 wasn't installed. It
was still running version 6. I went through this entire process several
times and the problem still exists. The Microsoft downloads history page
tells me that the update has been downloaded, but not installed. I've tried
repeatedly to install it with no success. How can I correct this problem?

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> WINXP FreezingI have not seen this happen on any other machine running
XP so it is perplexing me, especially since all trouble

I have one machine running a pre-installed XP Home
edition on a P4 1.8 with 256 RAM. System will run fine
for awhile but when left alone for over 5 minutes it hard
freezes and goes to a desktop only view with no icons.
Will not re-start unless we hard boot it with the power
button.
Anyone else seen this before and have any ideas?

- Windows XP >> Limit loading a service and startup client to 1 user onlyI have a home PC set up for multiple users with XP Pro. I

loads a service and client at start-up and leaves an icon

The client causes problems at times and other users do not
know how to deal with it.
I would like to have the service and client load only for
1 user (me). How do I achieve this?
Thanks for any help.

- Windows XP >> onverting to a single bootI was trying to install Linux on the D drive of my computer, but with all
the issues I have decided to rip it out and stay with my XP Pro. Only
problem is that when I got rid if Linux, my system still thinks it has to
load through the Grub boot loader and will only display Grum 2 on an
otherwise black screen. How can I ginally get rid of this thing and get my
computer to boot to Windows normally?

- Windows XP Network >> Windows Explorer locks-up when I open "My Network Places" for the second timeHi all,
yesterday I decided to reinstall my PC from scratch. I installed Windows XP
Pro with SP 1a, latest version of drivers and every critical/windows update.
Everything worked flawlessly except for one thing. After every login I can
open "My Network Places" just for one time.
The first time I open it I can see my Residential Gateway Device (UPnP) and
every shared folder on the other PCs, but when I try to doubleclick on "My
Network Places" icon again, cursor changes to "Working in Background" (arrow
+ hourglass) for a while and nothing happens.
Then , when I log off, Windows says that an instance of explorer.exe is not
responding and I've to terminate it.
BTW: I made the same installation 3 times (from scratch every time... it
took the whole day...) but I always had the same behaviour.
Any idea?
Thanx in advance.
