- Windows XP MovieMaker >> It keeps freezingWhenever I open a project or start trying to make another movie when I want
to preview it and press play WMM just freezes and doesn't do anything. It
must be something up with the title options or something but yea, I'd hate to
have to restart my current GMV because timing stuff to "Witchdoctor" is
rather tedious....
Does anyone here know what's wrong with it because right now i feel like
kicking the stupid thing. This is the first time ever that WMM has been
spazzing on me.

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> VX2/?:User SettingsWhenever I try to access any site, my IE (6.0 sp1) gets
directed to this site
207-182-237-253.visionaire.us.com. I am using TCPview to
view the sitename etc.
IE hangs for about 30 seconds and everything seems to
work fine after that.
I used spybot and adaware to remove the registry entries
and for some reason my registry gets this entry no matter
what i do.
Any help in resolving this error is really appreciated.
Thanks,
Kannan.

- Windows XP Hardware >> Serious burning issuesI am having a big problem and I desperately need your
help. I am unable to burn a cd anywhere in my house. I
have 2 computers in my house. I thought it might have
just been the burner of the first computer when it didnt
work, but now I have moved to my second PC, and nothing
will burn on it either. So I have tried 2 computers, 3
different burners, 3 different cd burning softwares,
(nero, easy cd creator 5.3.5 platinum, and nti), tried
different files and different burning speeds, even the
lowest speed on all drives. I even tried 3 different
kind of cd media in case that was the problem. This
started all a sudden, please I have no idea what the heck
it could be. I have XP Pro on both machines, and they
are not networked in any way. Also, I've tried Music and
Data, and nothing works. One of my systems is P4 2.4,
768 Ram, 40Gb hard drive, so I dont think that's the
problem. Thank you very much in advance for any advice.

- Windows XP Network >> internet gatewayI have a broadband connection in the house and it keeps
stopping working. When i start the computer everything
works fine but after a while it stops working. When i go
into network connections and try to look at the status of
the connection i can't because it just opens for about 1
second and then disappears. When i try to disconnect it
it tells me i can't because it is disconnecting. this is
a real annoyance. the only way i have found to get it
working again is to restart the computer. i am able to
ping the adsl router than i am connected to and my laptop
which is connected to the adsl router as well but i just
can't get an internet connection. i can get it always on
the laptop.

- Windows XP Network >> domain and workgroupsI, too, need to access a domain network at work and a workgroup
network at home. Here's what happens: to join the domain at work I
have to go into mycomputer properties, computer name and choose the
"domain" option. Once I am part of that domain, when I get home, my
laptop no longer sees the workgroups at home. If I go back and change
mycomputer name from "domain" to workgroups, then I can see them, but
then when I go back to work I have to get the network adminsitrator to
joint me to the work domain all over again. How can I have both?
Many thanks,

- Windows XP Update >> IE 6 (I think) troublesI can use my IE for simple tasks but have a multitude of problems. First
noticed that I could not download a file like a RoboForm update or a Yahoo
photo program. I installed Mozilla Firefox to do my downloads. I couldn't get
to this page using IE. I saved the address and am using firefox. Probably
should start with the root items that I've discovered. When I do About IE to
get vers #, I get blank. When I have tried to manage favorites, I get
nothing. I do NOT have (or cannot find) my Information Bar. I do remember
seeing it a lot in the past but not now. I considered downloading IE7. First
step required was to right click info bar and retrieve Active X control. No
info bar. I'm using free Zone Alarm and Norton System Works with up-to-date
registration. I have set default values for IE Security. If someone could
help me identify the fixes needed for the simple stuff, maybe it will take
care of it all! Many thanks.

Windows XP Network >> No Notification Area Icon
My network adapter icon recently disappeared from the notification area. I
made sure that the Display Icon checkbox was checked on the adapter. I have
tried uninstalling the adapter and I have tried unchecking the notification
box, rebooting and then rechecking it. Each time I check it the hourglass
appears for a moment but there is no icon. A related problem that happened at
the same time is that I can no longer get the status of the adapter either -
clicking on Status causes nothing to happen. Any ideas?

- Windows XP Support >> Running old software!Hi,
When I try to load an old Trigonometry cd-rom, the main window for the
program comes up. But when I click on the chapter and section for the
lesson, a message appears "Invalid Property Value." What is this and how do
I fix it so it is compatable with my computer? I know the program works
because I've tried it on several friends computers with Windows XP Home
Edition and it worked. Thanks for the help!

- Windows XP Network >> Possible to set up host IP as something other than 192.168.0.1 for ICS?My question is it possible to use ICS without assigning the host's IP
address to the default 192.168.0.1. The reason I am trying this is
because im trying to use my wireless laptop (connected to wireless
network) to give access to my wired desktop. The problem is that the
router used on the wireless network has already taken the 192.168.0.1
address and I cannot change it because it is in my neighbor's house
(college students saving money by sharing internet connection) My
laptop has XP Pro and desktop has XP home. Any help would be greatly
appreciated and If any additional info is required I will be more than
happy to provide.
Thanks, Ryan

- Windows XP MovieMaker >> Rewind Tape then crashI now have MM2 working to the point where it rewinds the tape then I get a
crash with
"An unknown error has occurred"
I would appreciate any ideas.
I notice this is not covered on the MS site, nor anywhere that I can see.
Maybe this is a topic for the papjohn.org site? or don't crashes happen with
this software.

- Windows XP >> svchost.exe netsvcs is eating up all memorydoes anyone know about or have this issue? it is happening on many xp
machines and I can't find mention of it anywhere. I tried stopping services
in this process and it has no affect and never gives back memory. the only
thing that gives memory back is to kill the main process by pid for
svchost.exe netsvcs or to reboot the machine. the problem reappears in
about a week when the memory is consumed agaion.

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> Crashes, freezes and soooooo slowHi I an running XP home edition and over the past few months have been
experiencing more and more crashes and freezes, some while playing games but
the most annoying while shutting down.
Also my PC has become so slow to load and use, it is really driving me mad.
Maybee the 2 problems are linked. Someone has suggested to me to back up all
files and to reload XP. Is this a possibility or rather excessive. Also how
would I back up and reload. PC novice so need simple instructions- Sorry

- Windows XP Setup >> Problems During Upgrade HELP!Hello everyone. I have a laptop that I'm upgrading to
Windows XP and everything seemed to go fine until I got to
the point where I had to add a user. I added the user and
hit next, and then I got a message that
said: "Userinit.exe Application Error. The application
failed to intialize properly (0xc0000033) Click on OK to
terminate the application." All you can do is click okay.
Then nothing happens. So if I click Ctrl-Atl-Del I get a
message that says "Taskmgr.exe Application Error" The rest
of the message is the same as before. I can't power the
comptuer off unless I just actually manually turn the
computer off. Does anybody have any fixes for this
besides to reformat the whole thing. I did attempt a
repair with the same results. I'm concerned because I
don't think all of the person's files are backed up. Any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, A.D.

- Windows XP Support >> IEEE 1284.4 printing supportI have a printer that I'm trying to install as a temporary solution until I
get the users regular printer fixed. I have successfully installed this
printer on several other windows XP boxes, however, am struggling to be able
to get this printer to work with this particular system. All systems have
been windows XP systems with service pack 2.
This happens to be a slightly older PC, it's a Dell Dimension where the
others were a different model (Optiplex). At any rate, when I try to install
this printer I get the fact that windows detects the new hardware and
whenever I try to go through that wizard, it's searching for a generic IEEE
1284.4 printing support, and it doesn't find it.
I have downloaded the driver specific to the printer, howver, it fails to
print when I install it through the usual add printer wizard. I originally
did a google search on this and came up with all kinds of hits on it, yet,
nothing specific to what I actually need to do. You know the usual registry
cleaner programs, and the like. It's been my experience that there are other
problems with the system later down the line, and can't help but wonder if
downloading all these "free tools" is creating other problems down the line.
This printer is a USB printer, yet there weren't any USB ports to choose
from when I went to choose a different port other than LPT1, I created a new
port called USB, but that didn't work either.
I don't normally trust all the loads of these "free tools" that supposidly
fix the problems, I don't like messing with the registry unless necessary.
I hate those days when trying to accomplish what would normally take a few
minutes, ending up taking up hours with no resolution. I guess that's why I
maintain my technet membership every year, because I find the REAL fix here,
whereas google comes up with so many hits, and "Temporary fixes" to that
particular problem, but how do I know it doesn't cause the other problems
with the system later down the line. I'm still new to this position, and
have more PCs that I'm responsible that I don't have any history on.
This would seem like something that I need to download, yet have spent many
hours trying to find it with no solution. Can someone PLEASE tell me what
the real problem is, and how to overcome it. The google results are all over
the place, and I don't feel comfortable with them. I tried a search on this
in here, and no results came up.
Before driving out to this remote office, I'd like to have some other
solutions to try. It's a 45 minute drive just to get there. The particular
type of printer is an HP Laserjet 1300.
More specific info on the exact model of computer, and specifics about patch
level will follow. I'm just putting this out there, because replies will
come to this email address. Thanks in advance for any guidence you can
provide me.

- Windows XP >> newsgroupsSeems like a slow night just thought I would through in my
2 cents worth I know microsoft bashing has almost become a
pastime with some I just wish they could appreciate how
good we have it with them sponsoring this site and all the
dedicated people who give there time spend their money
setting up other help sites like Kelly, Doug, Bill, David,
S.Sengupta and others too numerous to list. If only the
bashers had an operating system built by Roxio or Nero or
even symantec which tries hard to give support only then I
suppose that they could appreciate what a outstanding job
microsoft does with a daunting task of immense scale.
Thanks again especially to you hard working contributors
who answer our questions.

- Windows XP Support >> blue screen on use of usb 2 flash stickCan anyone help please.
Ive purchased a 256mb USB 2.0 Memory / Flash Stick by 'NewLink'.
There were 2 options on the accompanying disc, a; use the Win XP drivers or
b; install their own drivers if you want to use the software supplied with
the stick for password protecting part of the memory.
The problem is, it seemed to work ok fo the first 5 minutes, whereby I ran
the software, created a partition of 250mb 'password secure' / 5mb 'publicly
accessible' and entered a password. However.... after a reboot, my system
keeps blue screening upon using the stick whenever the NewLink software is
installed. If I uninstall the software + drivers, the cad is auto installed
by windows with the microsoft 'mass storage device' drivers, but i can only
access the 5mb of 'none secured' storage space. In fact, it gives the
appearance that the card is only 5mb in total size.
Ive tried un/reinstalling the software but there is no change.
I received the following error on blue screen the last time i ran it:
0x00000019 (0x00000020, 0x85b9b428, 0x85b9b450, 0x0a050001)
Have searched for references to this problem but have had no luck and their
website is 'under construction'.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, if only to reformat my memory stick
back to 256mb (which 'format' doesnt do).
Thank you.

- Windows XP >> Vista's minimum CPU requirements are 243 percent larger than XPRepost from archives: Vista - XP cpu usage comparison
A survey in December by US IT services company Softchoice claimed that Vista
will be the most power-hungry Windows desktop so far. The report claimed
that at Windows XP's launch, for example, the minimum CPU requirements were
75 percent greater than those for the operating system it replaced, Windows
2000. Vista's minimum CPU requirements are 243 percent larger than that of
XP.
