- Windows XP >> Laptop shuts off and CPU Usage at 100%I have a Gateway 7422gx laptop. Recently, it started acting weird. The fan
would run faster than normal for 3-4 seconds and then the whole machine would
turn off. In addition, I noticed the CPU usage is at 100% even without any
apps running. Any ideas?

- Windows XP Support >> Mapped NT share randomly disconnects.I have a user with a Windows XP Pro (SP2+) laptop that is having a problem
keeping a shared folder on an NT4 server mapped. It randomly disconnects.
We can't seem to figure out a way to either get it to reconnect or
permanently stay connected. When he tries to access the mapped drive, he
either gets the message that the drive (Z:) is already in use or he gets a
prompt to enter in his user credential (and then a subsequent message
indicating that that user is already authenticated).
We're in a Server 2003 environment and the customer is authenticating to the
domain without any problem.
He is mapping the network drive with the "reconnect at logon" option set.
I'm at a loss as to what the problem could be. I've checked the firewall on
his system and I've tried removing his computer profile from AD. I haven't
tried deleting his user account yet. I'm not sure that that is the cause of
the problem.
If anyone has any suggestions on what else I should look at, I would
appreciate it.

Thanx in advance!

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> Filter keysIf you hold down the right shift key for eight seconds
you go into Filter Keys mode. When I did that by mistake
my keyboard got messed up. Caps became lower case and
vice-versa and letters became symbols. I couldn't figure
out how to get out of this for a while but found that by
holding down the right shift key for eight seconds a
second time, everything returned to normal again.
Since then the Filter Keys mode comes up all by itself
every so often without my doing anything. But those times
the result is that the cursor stays in one place and I am
unable to type. Pressing right shift for eight seconds
gets me back to normal. How do I stop this mode from
coming on by itself?

- Windows XP Security >> Continuing blaster worm problemsI have downloaded the patch for the blaster worm,
installed all updates, renewed my anti-virus protection (
it states no viruses detected)and cannot locate the virus
on my Task Manager (processes tab). My computer works,
but after a while, it will make a highpitched noise as if
there are gears grinding in my laptop. The laptop will
then freeze for a minute or two, and sometimes never get
back to normal. What is going on? Is the virus still,
or could it be damage from the virus? If anyone can help
me, I would sincerely appreciate your time.

- Windows XP Hardware >> Can't see mail foldersSuddenly, I am unable to see my Inbox/Deleted Mail., etc folders using
Windows Explorer. As far as I can get is C:/Documents and
Settings/Owner/Application Data but nothing is listed under Application
Data. I was always able to see the folders even when "show all files" wasn't
checked - its the way Win XP Home came. I don't remember changing anything.
Anyone ran across this? Thanks

- Windows XP Update >> Laptop won't update (Error #0x80072EE2]I've got a Vaio laptop with Windows XP Home SP 1. I haven't been able
to get updates using the school's wireless network since last spring.
Someone on this newsgroup told me it was because I was "behind a
proxy." Whatever that means.
I've brought the laptop home and used the phone line and a dialup. It
still won't update. I get to the choice between Express/Custom. I
click Custom. Then I get a message that update has encountered a
problem and cannot display the updates. Error No. 0x80072EE2.
Note, that I have a desktop computer at home, using the same dialup
properties, also have Windows XP Home SP 1, and can update without
trouble.
What's going on here?

- Windows XP Security >> Windows firewall won't stay onWindows firewall does not stay on. I have set the firewall to be on many
many times, but for some reason every so often I will get a Security
Center alert saying that the firewall is off. Also, it does not stay on

does not happen at the office where my computer has XP professional. Is
there a setting to change to stop this from happening?

- Windows XP >> Desktop ShortcutI accidentally moved my desktop shortcut from my taskbar
to my desktop, and then tried moving it back. It
appeared it had moved back, but the original file stayed
on the desktop. I erased the one from the desktop
thinking it had just coppied itself, and now I don't have
the quick desktop button on my taskbar anymore. Does
anyone know where to get this file from, or do I have to
restore my winxp to get it? (It is the button that when
you click it no matter how many windows you have open, it
will take you directly to the desktop.)
Thanks

- Windows XP >> Help With Booting XPSome time ago I was asking for help on a mobo upgrade to my PC .. I went from
Intel to AMD and a upgrade to my original disk was suppose to take care of
the HAL files etc. but it never worked. So I installed 2 SATA disks and
preformed a clean install but I left the old IDE disk in to pull data off it.
The problem I have now is .. the IDE disk is C: CDrom is D: and the SATA's
are E: & F: . The system will not boot if I disable the IDE disk ... it tells
me no boot files present or something like that ..... I tried booting off the
cdrom and used the commands to fix the boot sector and install the boot image
...
Any ideas??? also what about the disk labels does it matter if they stay E:
and F: ?? It would probably screw up all the paths in the environment and
probably the Registry correct ??? Can this be fixed ???
Thanks in advance

- Windows XP Hardware >> USB device probs, scanner seems to hang up systembeing new to XP I hope this is not a silly Q.
I connected my scanner and camera to my PC via USB and loaded drivers etc
and all worked fine. I then installed a 4 port USB PCI card and reconnected
these items, the hardware wizard ran and detected "new" hardware and then
loaded the drivers etc.
I have 2 problems.
1. the scanners is listed as "scanner #2" in hardware profiles and in
control panel, imaging devices. The same has occurred for the camera. Why
is this? I have tried uninstall/reinstall and it still lists as #2.
2. The scanner used to initialise immediately after I started up, now it
initialises a few minutes later and if I try opening control panel, or some
applications, they appear to hang until the scanner initialises. once this
occurs all works fine till next reboot.

- Windows XP Support >> Windows XP SP2 Blue Screen of Death when inserting Kingston USB drI've been experiencing several Blue Screens whenever I insert my Kingston
Datatraveler (DTI/2GB) flash drive into my HP Compaq nc6400 with an Intel

crashes. This is very easy to recreate and it happens all the time.
When my PC recovers, I creates a minidump. I have several minidumps that
I've been piling up.

- Windows XP Support >> SP2 install copy errors.I am attempting to install SP2 on a XP Pro machine. When I try I get the
following errors.
First, I get a â??Setup cannot copy the file type .wavâ?? error. When I click
on cancel it says it will continue with the setup without coping this file.
I get this error for the next 6 or more files then it continues with the
process.
After sometime I get another Copy Error dialog box. This one says â??An error
occurred while copying file xpmsgr.chm. Cannot copy file to destination
directory.â?? This time when I click on cancel it states that the SP2 install
will cancel and does. During the closing of the process I get another window
stating â??the filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.â??
I have tried the following, none which worked.
I ran SFC /scannow. Problem still occurs.
I tried to install in safe mode. No luck.
I disabled Anti-virus programs. Still no luck.
I tried to do the update via Microsoftâ??s website and directly from a SP2 CD.
Same error for both procedures.
I need to get this computer up to date, but canâ??t get past this error.
Any advice or ideas are appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

- Windows XP >> Installation HistoryI have my computer set to download updates automatically,
but I used the Web to download a recent "critical pack" &
when I checked my installation history it showed that
under 'STATUS' nearly every update automatically
downloaded had FAILED, but the one one I downloaded from
the web said SUCCESSFUL. Does this mean that all my
automatic updates are failing to download onto my
computer? If that's the case, why am I using automatic
updates at all? I thought I was keeping my computer up
to date with these automatic downloads.

- Windows XP Support >> Reversed browse list...?I'm having an issue with my browse list...
Like say I want to upload a mp3 file onto YouSendIt.com. When I click on
the browse button and search for whatever I'm looking for, the list isn't in
A-Z order...the list is backwards, Z-A order. Even if I right-click and
arrange it back to normal order, it always come back the same way after I
close it. I already tried restoring all my folder options back to default
and restored program things back to default, but it still didn't do anything.
I mainly use FireFox as my default browser, but the same thing happens in
Internet Explorer. I'm not sure if I did a certain keyboard combination or
not, but it's really annoying to keep seeing the list in reversed order. Is
there any way this could be fixed? Thank you in advance!
Oh, and here is a picture to show what I'm talking about:
