- Windows XP Setup >> Forbidden error 403Up until yesterday I had no problem getting onto a particular web site now
every time I try I get the following message
[You don't have permission to access / on this server.
Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an
ErrorDocument to handle the request. ]
I am having no trouble with any other site just this one....I am running XP
& have IE7 ....can anyone tell me if there is anything I can do to fix
this.....

- Windows XP >> hibernate + freezesWindows XP....when my computer comes out of hibernating,

Ctrl-Alt-Del everything comes back to normal. I can
click icons(Start button, etc)(The icons actually move)
but nothing happens. It won't even turn off....I have to
press my computer ON-OFF switch to restart.

- Windows XP Security >> File and Print Sharing QuestionI have a question about File and Print Sharing in relation to
Administrator shares (C$, Admin$, IPC$). My question is, does File
and Print Sharing have to be installed AND enabled in order for me to
access Administrator shares? From what I read in other newsgroup
posts, all that matters is that File and Print Sharing is installed
(this installs/starts the Server service) but you do not have to
enable it (I disabled by unchecking the box next to File and Print
Sharing after I installed it).
However I tested this and it appears that I cannot access the
Administrator shares on that machine from my machine. I get this
error message:
Windows cannot find the network path. Verify that the network path is
correct and the destination computer is not busy or turned off. If
Windows still cannot find the network path, contact your network
administrator.
Here is some additional info:
-I am not the system administrator, but I added my account to the
Administrators group on the machine where I disabled File and Print
Sharing.
-Both machines are WinXp Pro.
-If I type net share at the machine where I disabled File and Print
Sharing, I can still see the Administrator shares.
-I verified the Server service is running
-If I enable File and Print Sharing, I can access the Administrator
shares. However my client will not accept having File and Print
Sharing enabled.
Thanks in advance,
Joey

- Windows XP >> Mounted DVD causes memory problemsI had a problem with explorer.exe loading over 350MB into memory and
swapping in and out of VM virtually locking the system.
I tracked the problem down to a DVD as an ".img" file mounted using
Alcohol1120. While the image file was mounted any use of windows (eplorer
below a couple of levels) would trigger the memory usage.
I discovered that if the same file is renamed to ".iso" then mounted the
problem does not recurr.
I have not seen any other references to this problem and was wondering if
anyone had any comments. Is it likely that the way my system is configured
to treat .img is causing this. If so what settings/ keys are likely
suspects.
".img" is not a registered file type on my system.

- Windows XP >> Search function has stopped searchingI'd been using my Windows XP Professional for about 6
months when it stopped searching. I'll search for a file
I know is on the drive and the answer comes back "Search

appears the only items it finds are those ON the desktop
and nothing in any other file. I've tried reseting all
of the "controls" without success.
I'm an Elementary School Principal with numerous files
with "teacher" in them, yet NO results.

Windows XP Network >> My attempt at a network in detail
This is a followup to my last post. The original message
is below it.
As I said in my previous message, I am using a D-link
DI624 wireless router. The router is connected to my DSL -
and DSL into the router. My computer is in the first port
of the router. The other computer was using dial-up an an
internet connection but is at times receiving the DSL
connection. I have tried numerous settings for the Wizard,
but nothing is working. I have not set up an internet
gateway on either of the computers, it says the router is
working as the gateway just fine.
I hope this info is more helpful to you, since I am
completely baffled.
Thanks again.

Windows XP Network >> My attempt at a network in detail
Are you using static IPs or DHCP?
What are the IPs of all of your equip?
Should be something like
Comp1 192.168.1.1 mask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.1.254
Comp2 192.168.1.2 mask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.1.254
Wireless 192.168.1.253 mask 255.255.255.0
DSL 192.168.1.254 mask 255.255.255.0
Also manually set the DNS settings to your ISP for each computer.
Let us know what happens.
Are your computers 98/me/2k/xp ?

For a computer that's connected to the router, run the Network Setup
Wizard and tell it that the computer connects to the Internet through
a "residential gateway".

Windows XP Network >> My attempt at a network in detail
Well I have fiddled around long enough that I can finally
see the other computer when I click on "View workgroup
computers", though I don't see mine. I'm not sure if I am
supposed to?? When I go to the router's configuration page
it recognizes the other computer as being the DHCP client
but refers to my computer as "unknown" and the ip
addresses and such don't seem to make sense.
comp1 192.168.0.100 mask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.0.1
comp2 192.168.1.101 mask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.0.1
wireless 192.168.0.1 mask 255.255.255.0

OK. Change the comp2 IP Address to 192.168.0.101
Change BOTH computer gateways to 192.168.0.100
Also set the DNS to your ISPs DNS settings and u should be right.
Good Luck

internet is Satelite. The only way satelite can be

Here is a collection of emails/postings - all wanting the same thing

Begin Paste
-------------
I recently changed to XP.
For the order of files in a directory I usually use Details or List
then often sort the file/folder listing into date order with most
recent on top. In 98 this arrangement listed the folders at the
beginning. Thus when I open a folder I immediately see the list of
subfolders (in case I want to go deeper or transfer a recent file to a
folder) followed by recent files in case I want to use one again or
move it to a subfolder. I usually find this arrangement by far the
most convenient.
But, XP puts the folder list on the bottom instead of leaving them at
the top. This is *very* inconvenient.
Is there a way to make XP sort/order file/folder lists like 98 does
it?
jim
-----------
Hi, I have been using Windows XP since it came out. I still miss
Win98 in the following respect:
In many directories, I like to use the "details" view that windows
explorer provides, and set it to show me the most recently modified
files.
Back in Win98, this view combination shows folders first - and then
files. (Most recent folder to least recent folder, then most recent
file to least recent file.)
This way, at a glance, you could see all recently changed files and
all folders without resorting or scrolling down to the end of what may
be a very long list of files.
I loved it that way, it made sense, it was convienient.
In Windows XP, this behavior was changed. Someone decided to make it
harder.
Either you can list:
Files shown first ( most recent file to least recent file), and then
folders (most recent folder to least recent folder).
or
Files first (least recent to most recent), and then folders (least
recent to most recent).
So, my "simple" question is: how can I make Windows XP show folders
first, and then files like Win98?
thanks!
---------------
Ultimately I wish to Arrange the Icons inside my Folders thus:
All concurrently in "details":
1st by: Sub folders (Alphabetically a-z)
2nd by: Links (Alphabetically a-z)
3rd by: Zipped folders (Alphabetically a-z)
4th by: regular files (by Date with newest files at the top)
Then, set that regime to apply to all folders
If that can't be done I would settle for say:
All concurrently in "details":
1st by: Sub folders (Alphabetically a-z)
2nd by: all files (by Date with newest files at the top)
Then, set that regime to apply to all folders
Is any of this possible? I believe this would greatly assist me in
locating my files.
Thanks,

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> Repair Installation problemsTo cut a moderately long story short I was having problems booting Windows XP
and was getting an error message saying that "load needed DLL's for kernel".
I searched for solutions to this and found that the recommended solution by
microsoft was a repair install which I am now trying to do. However after
booting from the CD and starting the repair install process booting windows
now takes several minutes which it didn't before and all that happens after
this period is the setup window appears, tells me that it will take 39
minutes to finish the installation but then quickly goes wrong saying that
"setup failed to install the product catalouges" and gives the error code of
3e7 which means nothing to me.
Is there anything that can be done to fix this?
