- Windows XP Network >> Rejoining the domainI have several computers running off a Microsoft Exchange 2003 server.
One of the computers was connected to the domain incorrectly and now it
crashes and crashes the server due to security problems. The server thinks
the computer is trying to illegally log onto the server so it shuts down that
computer and then the server crashes.
When I unhook the computer from the server, all is fine. In other words, I
have isolated the problem.
I have heard that I cannot rename this computer and correctly rejoin it to
the domain unless I format the hard drive on the affected computer and
reinstall everything. Not a pleasant option.
I know NOTHING about networks so if I have not given you enough information,
please let me know.

- Windows XP Setup >> Memory testerSince this is a possible answer to any number of posts, I thought I would
just go ahead a create a new subject.
MS now has their in-house memory tester on the web.

- Windows XP >> Windows XP won't shutdown first time, but on the second time.I have German version of Windows XP which isn't much different at all than
the US Version. Anyway, I have no anti-virus software installed but when I
shut down windows normally through Start Menu -> Shutdown... it won't shut
down. Nothing happens at this point. In order for shutdown to occur I must
shut down a second time. Then everything works. Please help asap.

- Windows XP Hardware >> 1394 w/Core 2 Duo - 945PM Express chipset (Dell Laptop)Hi Everyone...
I'm supporting a proprietary software program and 1394 audio device,
but that is irrelevant to my question:
I am testing a brand new Dell Latitude D820 laptop which uses the 945PM
Express Chipset and the Core 2 Duo (T7200) 2GHz CPU. It has an
integrated 1394 controller and I'm not sure if it is part of the
motherboard chipset, CPU or some 3-rd party controller... When I click
on the "OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller" in Device Mangler,
the hardware ID shows:
PCI/VEN_1217&DEV00F7&SUBSYS_01CC1028&REV_02
As far as I can tell, VID 1217 belongs to O2Micro.
The Problem:
This piece of audio hardware can't successfully talk to the software
over the built-in 1394 port on the Dell laptop. I have tried the
MicroInnovations 1394 Cardbus adapter, and it works fine with it on the
same laptop. I am not a software programmer, so I can't provide any
details there, but we do know that it "appears" to be a communication
thing, where it might be dropping data.
We have also observed similar communication issues on a Mac Book Pro
(running XP) which is also based on the Core 2 Duo system, so we
thought this might be related to whatever the Core 2 Duo systems are
doing.
Has anyone had ANY issues so far related to the Core 2 Duo's or the 945
Express chipsets?
I am already working on having the software/firmware people look at
this, but so far, I am the first one to suspect this Core 2 Duo system
for this problem.
Again, the software/hardware works the same machines with an add-on
1394 controller.
I don't expect any solutions to this just yet, but if anybody who reads
this could tell me if they have heard about or seen any strange
FireWire issues with these types of systems, that would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Jonas

- Windows XP Support >> iexplorer.exe shows in task manager process list but no browser opHi,
I have just recently run into this problem and have now switched to Mozilla
because of it! It doesn't matter how many times I've closed IE 6 it just
shows up in the task manager process list as many times as I have opened and
closed my browser.(Needless to say its slowing down my PC).
I have the latest anti virus, router, Spydoctor, Ad Aware, CC Cleaner,
Internet Washer, HijackThis and have run countless online
virus/trojan/spy/malware scans and they all come up clean. I do have all the
latestest updates so why is this suddenly happening?
Oddly enough, this does not happen on my Laptop running Winsxp Pro and all
of the exact same software mentioned above. On my laptop when I exit IE 6 it
doesn't appear anywhere in the Task Manager.
Would uninstalling IE and reinstalling help?
Thanks in Advance

- Windows XP >> Sound ProblemHi:
I have a friend who has a Dell desktop and he cannot play .wav files for
some reason. Here is the website that has a .wav file that he cannot play:
http://www.minibite.com/oldies/boogiewoogie.htm. I am assuming the sound
file applicable this website is a .wav file. When you click on this website
it automatically plays sound without launching Windows Media Player. All
.mp3 files and also individual selected .wav files played launch Windows
Media Player when they are played. I really do not know why when you click
on this website and the song is played that it does not launch Media Player.
In addition, I had him test other .wav files, none of which could he get
sound. He has Windows Media Player and it is default for all File Types. I
have checked this and all files are checked, including .wav files. He can
get sound on all other sound files except .wav files. Also I checked IE
Tools>Internet Options>Advanced> and under Multimedia he as it checked to
"play sound in web pages".
I spent about an hour with him last night checking and rechecking his
settings, but still no sound from .wav files. If anyone has any suggestions
about what his problem might be, I would be most appreciative if you would
share them with me.
Thanks

- Windows XP >> Microsoft: ¿cazador cazado?La noticia de hoy seguramente alegrará el día a buena parte de las pequeñas
empresas dedicadas al ensamblaje y venta de ordenadores clónicos.
Y es que la Sección Séptima de la Audiencia Provincial de Alicante, con
sede en Elche, ha confirmado la sentencia absolutoria que dictó en su día
un Juzgado Penal de Orihuela, por la que se absolvía a los responsables de
un pequeño negocio de informática de Torrevieja. Dicho negocio había sido
denunciado por Microsoft, empresa que se valió "de un detective
privado -como se resalta en las actuaciones- para conseguir por la
denunciante en aquel momento, que los acusados le presupuestaran y
construyeran un pc con software que no ha satisfecho los debidos tributos,
[lo que] podría estar casi en el borde del delito provocado", según afirma
la propia sentencia...
De este modo los tribunales españoles han puesto en su sitio a la
multinacional, mediante una sentencia que pone punto y final a un proceso
de más de nueve años. Un proceso del que ha sido víctima una pequeña
empresa española, que quizás podría ahora a su vez iniciar acciones
judiciales frente a Microsoft por los perjuicios causados.
De ser ése el caso, los tribunales decidirán en el ámbito jurídico. En lo
que se refiere a los aspectos éticos de la cuestión, tienen la palabra
nuestros lectores.

- Windows XP >> Task Manager behaving stranglyIf I start the Task Manager from a limited access account, it
only shows the Cpu Usage and the Cpu Usage History windows.
The Title Bar, the Menu Bar, the tabs, the Cpu Usage,
the Cpu Usage History, thePf Usage, the Page File Usage History,
the Totals, the Physical memory, the Commit Charge,
the Kernel Memory windows and the Status bar can not be seen.
And of course I can not change tab.
If I start the Task Manager from my Administrator account, it runs
just OK.
I have done a full scan for malware with Kaspersky Anti-Virus
without finding anything.
What can I do?
Thanks for any answer

saying kazaa will shut down because of an ad-removal

see if I have any ad-removal programs? I've reinstalled

still get the error and it still won't run. Any idea how
I can get kazaa to work again? It never use to give any
ad-removal messages before and it always had ads.

- Windows XP Security >> ICMP Ping constantly ticked--risk or not?Hello,
I have Xp Home, SP2, and have tried security check with Gibson's
Research Website, which shows that I fail on the "ping" check, but am
secure for all other checks. (grc.com)
When I do to Windows firewall, I notice that ICMP tab has "allow ping"
checked, and I cannot un check this. I have a computer on a wireless
network downstairs, which is (hopefully secure) on a password enabled
network.
Is this why I cannot uncheck the IMCP ping box? Is it a risk please? I
don't recall having this problem before?
Thanks for any advice.

- Windows XP Security >> W2k logons fail after XP upgradeI have two computers on a workgroup LAN behind a cable
modem.
Each has a shared printer and several shared folders.
I upgraded one computer to Win XP Pro earlier today.
The second computer is running W2k and can no longer
access any of the shared folders on the XP machine, nor
can the W2k system print to the shared laserjet on
the XP machine.
Error messages are "logon failed: user account
restriction" or "access denied"
The XP machine can access all shared folders and the
epson printer on the W2k machine, so one way is working.
I've been all over the knowledgebase and newsgroups
because I am sure this is something simple!
Thanks for your help.
