- Windows XP Setup >> Applications available to all usersHi
I have just installed xp and I am having problems making
programs available to all users.
I have made each member of the family a user of our pc
with the children being limited users.
When I install a program ( I am an administrator) it
doesn't seem to make the program available to the others.
Is there a way I can inform " XP " that I want the
program to be available for all ( or for that fact just
selected users)? I can't seem to find any info on this
part.
Thanks

- Windows XP Setup >> Repair Install> Lost Documents and SettingsA friend's computer was not booting into Windows, so I ran chkdsk from the
recovery console, restored NTFS.SYS from the CD. (as it was not found on
startup) Windows got to the end of the startup logo, then rebooted. I
resorted to attempting a Repair Install from the CD, not realizing that there
is a potential for data loss in the Documents and Settings directory. I've
done repair installs on my own systems in the past without any problems.
Everything went smoothly until the system booted up, I logged in, and
discovered that all of the important files I was trying to preserve are gone.
Windows recreated all of the users, but everything inside their home
directories is the installation default. The start menu has also been
reverted to the installation default (obviously as it is in the All Users
directory) Has anyone had experience recovering this data in any way? Help!
Thanks,
Reid

- Windows XP >> strange result on google searchI couldn't find an IE7 forum, hope this question is okay here.
I have Search Google as my default. When I use the google search, no matter
what I type in the box on the toolbar, it returns a search %s. I am using IE7.
You know, when you search using the toolbar box, there is a box and a little
magnifying glass. Then, the search result on the screen and another search
box that you can use. It is THAT box that has a %s in it and the results of
the search always starts with the Wikipedea definition of S
Is there something I can change? I've looked in Internet Options and don't
see anything. In the "change search defaults" under settings listed are 2
Googles and a Search Google (default). I am a novice.

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> Disk DefragmenterI have installed the SP2 update and, so far, can no longer perform a disk
defragmentation.
When I run the program I get an error message stating:
MMC failed to initialize because it was installed incorrectly or because a
portion of the registry has become corrupted. Make sure the file Mmcndmgr.dll
is registered and running "regsvr32 %SystemRoot%\System32\mmcndmgr.dll".
I then go to Run and type:
regsvr32 %SystemRoot%\System32\mmcndmgr.dll
And I receive another error message stating:
"C:\WINDOWS\System32\mmcndmgr.dll" is not an executable file and no
registration helper is re registered for this file type.
The mmcndmgr.dll file does exist in the System32 folder. Can anyone help me
fix this problem and get my Disk Defragmenter to work again? If it's a
registry problem, where in the registry would I fix it and how? Or how would
I go re-installing the program if thats even possible?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

- Windows XP Security >> Locked-Out Documents?I recently had to reinstall my copy of windows due to a
file corruption, but luckily enough my personal files
weren't deleted. However, although I log in with the same
account name and password and such (the profiles were not
saved) I cannot access my old files whatsoever. Is there
an administrator's utility that allows me to bypass this?
I do realize that the privacy option for one's documents
was created to prevent people from accessing them in the
first place, but I have crucial file for my workplace in
there!!

- Windows XP >> I'm unable to log onto windowsOne of the computers in my home network is not responding to the
administrator password for that particular pc.
I get the first " Log on to windows box " which asks for a user name and
password,
And thats about as far as it goes.
I don't know if one of the kids has changed the password or downloaded a
trojan thats changed the password or what.
My knowledge of computers extends as far as " its got a keyboard and a mouse!"
Any ideas please as i dont particularly want to re-install windows and lose
all the kids homework, pictures and games.

- Windows XP >> cannot download AOL for Broadband softwareAny one know what the solution is??
AOLTechLES: AOL Computer Check-Up did not detect any
errors in your AOL software. Is there anything that I can
assist you with at this time?
loseweightnow196: I was trying to down load the AOL for
Broad band soft ware and it keeps telling me that I need
to log in as administrator which I already am... I also
restarted my pc and that didn't work either....
any suggestions??
AOLTechLES: Please hold while I find this information.
loseweightnow196: k
AOLTechLES: Thank you very much for waiting. :)
loseweightnow196: :-) no problem
AOLTechLES: Regarding your concern, in order to
successfully download it, you need to contact Microsoft
so that they can allow a certain file on your Operating
System which is Windows XP.
loseweightnow196: What would that be?
AOLTechLES: I sincerely apologize but since the issue is
on your Operating system, I may not be able to determine
the exact name of the file, but please be assured that
they will be helping you to allow that file which
restricts you from doing this.
loseweightnow196: ok I will contact them...thanks for
your help
AOLTechLES: You're most welcome. Please feel free to come
back here anytime you have a question or concern
regarding the AOL software and its service.
The session has ended!

- Windows XP >> Help...Locked Out of Drive!I got help here but didn't get the problem solved. I have two harddrives in
my computer. One, the E: drive has all of my work files backed up on it. I
wanted to protect it so I tried using the advanced secutiry features in XP
Pro. I ended up blocking the "users" groups...which blocked me too. I was
told I need to use CACLS. I don't know what I should type. I went back to
the root by typing cd\ but do I need to do anything else because it is NOT
on the C: drive? The user I want to allow access is "Jared" an
administrative account. The files are on the E: drive. I don't know any
individual files names, just the folder name which is "RESTORE". If you need
any more info, let me know. I hope someone can help me. Thanks!

- Windows XP Hardware >> Dual Monitors in 'clone' mode using two cardsHi
I'm trying to set up dual monitor cards to allow o/p to a
monitor @ 100Hz refresh and a seperate LCD projector @
85Hz.
I need to duplicate the desktop o/p on both screens. I've
tried Matrox Dualhead technology and that does not allow
different refresh rates on the two outputs despite their
claim that it does (confirmed from Matrox tech support).
I now have two seperate Nvidia GeForce4 MX cards (one AGP
one PCI). But I can only 'extend' the desktop to both
cards, I can't 'duplicate' the desktop to both cards.
Anyone any ideas please. Apart from using a laptop that
has this built in :o)
Using XP Pro

- Windows XP Security >> Open up remote admin ports without GPO?Hello, I have some problems with the GPO for opening up remote admin ports to
clients and since GPO-troubleshooting is rather timeconsuming I intended to
settle for a quick solution and instead use
"netsh firewall set service remoteadmin enable custom 10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0
domain"
The problem is that I want to use this in a script and somehow the firewall
context menu disappears as soon as you enter the netsh remote mode.
Is it known why the firewall context mode disappears for remote computers
and is there a way to get around this?
Basically I need a simple way to toggle/show the firewall state for remote
computers without resorting to GPO's or login script so is this possible?
Thanks in advance!

- Windows XP >> Installing XP onto a 64 Bit Turion machineI've just bought a new ACER Travelmate 5520 that shipped with Vista Home.
Unfortunately, I now can't run my older versions of Photoshop, Nero etc.
Being a Scotsman, I'm loathe to spend out on new applications when my old
ones do everything that I want them to. Question is, can I run my old 32 bit
version of XP pro on this machine and should I have the syetem configured to
dual boot or just wipe vista off and install XP?
Any advice please!

- Windows XP Basic >> Issues synchronizing time with time serversI've problems getting time synchronizing to work on my computer. I get an
error message "can't connect to time server" on both time.windows.com and
other time servers I've tried.
My system is a Windows Media Center, with XP service pack 2. I have a local
wireless network with a DSL gateway. My timezone and date are set correctly.
I have tried to turn off the gateway's firewall in addition to the Windows
firewall without luck.
Obviously it would be good to keep my computer on time for the TV guide and
recording features of the Media Center. :-(
Anyone have any clues to what I should try to make this work?

- Windows XP >> XP corrupts my JPG filesDear support,
I just retuned from my hols. and plugged in the mem. card to my laptop with
XP. To my horror, the files I viewed with the default viewer on my XP laptop
corrupted the files. On one of the softwares it says that the header files
are corrupted. All the data is there in the file, but for some reason the
headers have been either removed or corrupted.When I click on the
"properties" for the jpg files (the corrupted ones) there is no summary
information. Is it now impossible to recover the files?
Thank you.
