- Windows XP >> backup in XPAloha all, I'm just trying to figure out how to back up
my system in WinXP. My limitations: I have a factory
installed XP OS, thus no disks/CD's available. Home
Edition, not Professional. Found Kelly Theriot's hints
page through the Microsoft site, but of course, without
software in hand, I'm stuck. Any advice?

screen starts to revolve. It will stop for a short while if I turn it off.
The longer I leave it off the longer I can use it. I would greatly appreciate
any help.

- Windows XP Support >> Printer only shows up under admin loginI have a public XP PC and the installed network printer shows up under
Admin login, but is not available for the User (public) login. It used
to be, but a user pointed out that it's gone. The add print wizard
can't find it either. I don't understand, I thought if the admin added
it, it should show up under the user login. This is the way I set it up
in the past and on several other machines. Is there a hidden check box
somewhere that hides or uninstalls the printer from one login?

- Windows XP Hardware >> Partitioning ProblemI am running XP SP2 on one of my machines at work. When I attempt to use
Disk Management to create a second partition of the C-drive (the drive is
more than half empty), tt indicates that the entire drive is taken up by the
original partition, and I get no option to make a second partition. I am
logged on as Administrator.
Do you have any idea what is blocking my attempt to make a second partition?

As a general statement, no it is not true.
Some older application programs will work on Vista, but others will not.
That depends on the specific programs. There's nothing new here; exactly the
same thing has been true with every other new version of Windows that's been
released--some older applications will work, and others won't. However, most
relatively recent application programs *will* work under Vista.
When it comes to utilities, as opposed to application programs, it's much
less likely that older ones will work with Vista.
My personal experience is that all my application programs work with Vista,
but a few utilities didn't.

- Windows XP Support >> out of memoryI have my xp on autom updates......I do know I got a couple the other
day and now one of my regular programs, zooms right up to 1 Mil. memory
usage and then back down. Everything freezes...my commit charge max'es
out, and .if I wait about three min., it says out of memory and then

This is the only prog I have problems with now.
Have uninstalled and reinstalled about four times, with 5 reg cleaners

this before, but for some reason, my computer will not

friend and asked him to go to the site and it worked fine
for him. It's really frustrating! He said it may be a
program installed on my computer that is messing it up.
Any ideas? I would be forever greatful!

- Windows XP >> Every time my mouse pointer is idle, an annoying pop-up menu appeaEvery time my mouse pointer is idle, an annoying pop-up menu appears. Also,
if I mouse-over say a menu item for instance, it will select that item
without me actually clicking on it. I am tired, it is probably something
simple, I have looked at the Mouse option in Control Panel, but cannot figure
out where to disable these settings. I just want a normal, double-click, and
select what you click on mouse.
Thanks in advance everyone, this is a great community!
