- Windows XP >> Little HelpHey all,
Little problem i'm running into is the amount of time it takes from the
desktop to when I can dial out.
From boot to desktop is pretty quick, but I have to wait to dial out. My
system almost freezes until my norton firewall appears then I can go.
I have an amd 2400+, 512 mb ram, sympatico hs.
I have the network card set manually.
Running norton systemworks 2003 and personal firewall.
I've shut off quite a few services in msconfig.
Me going nuts

- Windows XP Security >> M I.5,Perse cution ' how a nd why did it s tart?-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
-= how and. why did it start? -=
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
The. harassment didn't start by itself, so someone must have been there at
the outset to give it. a firm push and set the "animals" after me. It looks
as if I was set up in June 1990,. and the timing indicates someone from
university was. responsible.
>One thing which has. been missing from this discussion is this simple
>prognosis: that maybe he is right. and that, despite his admitted
>mental condition, there really is a campaign against him. organised by
>now-influential ex-students of his. university.
In May or June 1990, Alan Freeman on Radio 1 read out a. letter from someone
who had known me for a few years, who wrote. of the one who "wore out his
welcome. with random precision" (from the Pink Floyd song). Freeman went on
to say to the writer "that's a hell of a. letter you wrote there". The
indication is strongly that people I had parted from. soon before nursed a
grudge against. me and were trying to cause trouble for me.
The suggestion is that Freeman might have. shown the letter to other people,
and things could have. snowballed from there. Right from the start the real
source. (security services presumed) didn't announce themselves as the
origin, but let the "talkers", the. radio DJs, believe that they were the
originators. Think about it; if you announce,. "we're MI5 and we have a
campaign against this bloke" then people might not go along with it;. but if
you. say, "everyone else is getting at this bloke because he 'deserves' it"
then people will join. in with fewer qualms.
>Why would "they" wish to assassinate. your character?
It's the classic case of hitting a cripple to prove you're stronger.. Why
would the security services. expend hundreds of thousands of pounds and more
than six years of manpower to. try to kill a British citizen? Because they
are motivated by people who knew me at university. and feel personal
animosity; because. they knew me to be emotionally weak, and it is in the
nature of bullies to prey on those known to be weak; and because. they can
rely on. the complicity of the establishment, which the security services
manipulate and derive funding from. This is England's biggest. humiliation
today, and the British security services are intent. on preventing their
humiliation. becoming reality by continuing their campaign of attempted
murder to suppress the truth. from becoming public.

- Windows XP >> SYSTEM RESTOREI emptied out my recycling bin and I would like to system
restore to get those files back. but I can't restore my
system. There is no error message or anything it just
says it is unable to restore. Is there a way to get those
files back? I really need those files. Thanks a million to
those that are helping.

- Windows XP >> Windows boot, fastdetect and COM port questionWe have a system here that will be a call accounting system. It will have
data from a PBX sent to a COM port even when the system is booting up. This
creates a problem under normal circumstances as Windows will try to install a
serial pointing device.
I have /fastdetect in the boot.ini file but the system is still trying to
install pointing devices. I have added the COM1,2,3 etc after fast detect and
still the same problem.
Basically I have done exactly what Microsoft said to do to prevent the
problems I am seeing.
So what is the real solution to this problem?

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> Uncertain whether I have REAL Windows, AND TROJAN VIRUS!!!I have an older computer (used), and sheesh the problems I have... Other
than getting a new system how do I take care of four important things?
1. When I go to add/remove programs (to delete rarely used programs
because my system shows only 4% free space!), it does not list all programs
on my computer. Plus, it shows 20 or more Windows updates??? Some of them
take up space, some do not..............
2. Upon start up, I have a NEW WARNING, states that my system is at risk,
that I do not have an original version of windows..........
3. My virus check system (Symanytic Anti-Virus), states that I have the
Trojan virus, and that it has it quarantined, but not removed? WTF?
4. Fianally, my system (HA!), will not run scan disk completely when
prompted. It may run correctly one out of 20 times. PLEASE HELP ME!
Thank you so much for your help. I greatly appreciate it.

Windows XP Support >> Windows Firewall 'appears' to close on connection to network
I have a wireless network to my PC (XP Pro SP2) and it works fine
But today I brought the PC downstairs and plugged it in with a network cable
to the router (D-Link DSL-G604T) and immediately the Security Centre pops up
with 'Your compter may be at risk' and shows the firewall as OFF so I click
for the Security Centre to enable and it says...
"the security center could not turn on windows firewall" and recommends
trying to turn it on myself through the Control Panel and Windows Firewall
I go to control Panel > Windows Firewall and it shows as ON ??!!
As soon as I unplug the network cable the problem goes away
Other PC on the network (also XP Pro SP2) works fine with cable plugged in
permanently

- Windows XP Update >> Lost product keyI have a windows Xp pro upgrade disc which I used on my newer machine. This

loss of this machine, so i have had to get my old back-up system from the
attic. Unfortunately it was running 98se which I would like to upgrade using

ANY ideas would be appreciated. Thanks

- Windows XP Setup >> XP Pro Installation ProblemsHi, I was just recently upgrading my XP home edition to XP Pro on my IBM
PC...Anyways I get about half way through the installation process when I
receive a prompt saying that an existing driver (VGA i think) failed to pass
the XP logo test, now no matter which option i select the installation
process seems to crash and reboot the system. Now it wont allow me to do
anything cause it keeps rebooting the installation process and I don't want
to format the machine as i have important and sentimental data on it.... Can
anyone suggest how i can recover my disk, or overcome this problem?

- Windows XP Support >> Windows XP Crash intermittentlyI have recently installed a new hard drive (after my old one failed - on Sony
Z1VA notebook computer), loaded appropriate drivers, and some new programs
(Kapersky 6.0, Acronis Disk Director, Windows Outlook 2003). I also have an
external hard drive installed when at home. I have suddenly begun to
experience the Blue Screen of Death when attempting to connect via wireless
at my local library to their Public WiFi service. I've never had this
problem before, and it does not occur at my home wireless network, with or
without connection to the external hard drive. It only happens when
connecting to the Public WiFi.
In looking over the Event log, I noticed the following Erroor Code that
seems to be associated with the crash event:
100000dl, parameter 1 02010405, parameter 2 00000002, parameter 3 00000000,
parameter 4 02010405
Does anyone have any idea what the problem is that is causing the system
crash? Thanks.

- Windows XP Security >> You do not have sufficient privilegesHaving experienced the "You do not have sufficient privileges" message
with network connections and my new ATI graphics card (Catalyst control
center) and Windows update failure (error 0x80070005) I found the
following solution:
1) Boot in safe mode.
2) Login as administrator and create a new account with admin rights.
3) Reboot and login with the new account and check that the various
operations that were failing now work.
4) If all is working, delete the new account and try the same from the
existing admin account. All should be working fine.
I had tried the various solutions posted to these problems with no
effect.

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> Check disk deleted filesI ran check disk last night and when the computer
restarted, I found that hundreds of digital photo files
had been permanently deleted. I had some back ups, but
it is still frustrating. I'm wondering what caused this
problem and how I can avoid having it happen again.

- Windows XP Setup >> Transferring XP HomeI recently upgraded my laptop OS. It originally came with
XP home loaded, and I just installed a brand new full
version (not an upgrade) of XP-Pro to satisfy standards
set by my employer.
I would now like to transfer my XP home license and OS to
a new machine I will be receiving sometime this week.
How does one go about activating in this case?
