- Windows XP Setup >> 2 "administrators" - can I junk one?Another "how do i get rid of that damn startup password"
question again, but this time with a interesting twist!
Here's my situation:
I have 2 users, the "Administrator" and another, with
administrator rank. I'm the only one who uses the
machine, and want to disable the startup password.
Here's the problem:
I think I can do this by removing the secondary
administrator and just letting it boot up as the default
admin (is this what it does it the login screen time's
out?). BUT... I have all my settings, firewall program
access issues (ie: AIM won't start unless i log in with
my startup password), etc etc under the secondary user
(my name, with admin status). When I skip the password
screen, or let it time out, I have all sorts of
problems.
SO, My question:
Since the second user (my name) has full admin status, is
it safe to remove the actual "Administrator" user? If I
do this, will I be able to disable the password screen
and have it load the correct settings? If not, is it
possible to transfer all the settings for the second
administrator and junk it, and then run only as the
primiary Administrator?
I know this is a very "special" situation I've gotten
myself into, so anyone who has the knowledge and the
time... your thoughts are WELCOME!
Thanks!

- Windows XP Security >> can't decrypt EFS encrypted filesGreetings everyone,
I have a serious problem, I had encripted files using EFS of Windows XP SP1,
then later on I had troubles with access them, then a friend of mine
converted the partition NTFS to FAT32 and then again to NTFS (using
Partition Magic 7) with a hope that the files would lose their information
that were encripted but, this only made the things worst because, now XP
doesn't recognized them as encripted and they still are encripted, after
this I soon discovered that is possible to create Recovery Agent from a file
with the cipher command - ex. "cipher /r:example.txt", with this certificate
generated by this cipher util, I created a agent user recovery but, since
the XP doesn't know this files are encripted, I tried to force a decrypt
using cipher - "cipher /d /f /a example.txt" - but, still doesn't work,
anyone can help with this huge problem, this files are very important to me,
please. Thanks in advance.

- Windows XP Support >> My Memory is Like Quicksand!I have a situation that is plaguing and perplexing me. The simple
explanation is this:
Stuff gets stuck in memory.
It is now an everyday occurrence that some application or module that is
supposed to run and then go away doesn't go away. Sometimes it's a splash
screen for an application launching, sometimes it's a media player, and
other times it's a full-blown application. The one that fails me with 100%
consistency is the Adobe License Manager, adobelmvsc.exe, which kicks in
three minutes after a PDF file is opened and is supposed to check for a
legitimate license (which I have) and then go away. It never goes away.
iTunes frequently gets stuck, and several others are culprits.
When these programs or processes get stuck, there is no amount of prying in
Task Manager that can remove them. And because they refuse to release, the
Shutdown, Restart, or Logoff procedures hang in perpetuity.
As far as I know, the only recourse is to power-cycle, which I now do
multiple times per day.
I'd love to get to the bottom of this, but I don't really know where to
start. Any ideas...?

- Windows XP >> IE Open in New Window doesn't work.Hi,
My 2nd PC has WINXP SP1A and IE6 SP1 installed.
It works great except if I attempt to Right Click on a URL to open in a new
window - nothing happens, I just get a partialy drawn blank window. The same
happens when a webpage tries to open a new window. I don't have a Pop Up
Blocker or anything.
Any ideas on how to fix this? I've searched the Knowledge base but can't
find a fix.
Thanks,
Graham.

Windows XP Security >> Event 59 XP Pro sp2 SideBySide errors
I am attempting to clean up after a failed sp2 application. The box now
works as a result of assigning the acount EVERYONE full control over the
System32 folder. I realize this is a poor security practice but the only
alternative would be to trash the build and start over from scratch. First
the environment. The box is a client of an SBS2000 network running XP Pro
sp2, ISA Firewall Client and the Symantec Antivirus Corporate Edition 9.0
antivirus client. It has an AMD CPU and 512MB of RAM. Now the problem.
At every boot I find six errors in the Application Event Viewer, all Event
59. These occur in pairs. The first error mentions a dll for which the
Generate Activation Context failed and provides a full path to the dll. The
dll's involved are WININET.DLL, SHELL32.DLL and URLMON.DLL. The exact
messages for the first two of the six appears below. Kindly advise which
folders I need to change the secuerity settings on.

- Windows XP Hardware >> port setupHi all
I am a new user to xp pro and have a small problem with setting up comm
ports
I do a manual comm port setup for my modem which works just fine under 98SE
then do a reboot as it suggests, when the system comes back up it dumps my
port configuration and then says new hardware found and sets up 2 comm 4's
and an extra LPT1. both comm ports then have the yellow exclamation mark.
Is there a way to force my port configuration and disable the autodection
phase, setting up the 2 bogus comm4's and the extra LPT1
other than that glitch the system is flyin
Thanks

- Windows XP Security >> Running Windows XP on a system with no hard drive?Hi folks
does anyone know if it is possible to run Windows XP on a system
without a hard drive?
I was thinking of creating a 'hard-drive-less-system' running Windows
XP, but does the O/S require one, or can it be run purely from a CD?
Is this type of thing feasible?
Or if you know of any place that sells such a system I would be
interested.

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> ChkDskI have winXP, with 128mb of Ram and a 80gb HDD that has 6 partitions.
C-drive is the OS drive and D-drive is where all programs are installed.
All other drives are for data.
I have had this setup for about a month and it has been running smoothly.
Yesterday when the PC was started, it ran ChkDsk which was not scheduled. I
noticed it only ran the first 3 parts of ChkDsk instead of the normal 5
parts. After running ChkDsk, XP booted normally and everything looked fine.
I went to D-drive and tried to run Defrag. I got the message, "Cannot
perform defrag as D-drive is scheduled to run ChkDsk on the next reboot".
Again it had not been scheduled.
Then I did schedule both F-drive and D-drive to run ChkDsk on the next boot.
When rebooted, both the drives ran a complete ChkDsk. I then defragged
F-drive which defragged normally. When D-drive was selected to defrag, the
same message was received. Each boot, D-drive still runs the first 3 parts
of ChkDsk.
I ran a restore to 4 days previous to the problem starting, but the problem
still persists. Running ChkDsk only seems to be on D-drive as all others
are performing normally. BTW I do not have the HP scanner referred to in
Windows Knowledge base.
Does anyone have a clue why this is happening and how to fix the problem?

- Windows XP MovieMaker >> Audio and VideoI have a problem that when saving my video... the
percentages goes at a slow rate, then all the sudden it
speeds up, sounds great, but no... when you go to watch
the video the video stops after a certain number of
clips, but the audio keeps going. And it never stops at
the same picture (oh yeah, this is a slide show set to
music). The audio always continues, but the pictures
always stop at a random point. Ever seen this and any
suggestions? Thanks a bunch
