- Windows XP Network >> XP machine cannot see vista machine because of rights?I just installed a new Vista machine onto a home network with two XP machines
running on them. The vista machine sees all the shared folders on the XP
machines, and my XP laptop sees the shared folders and printer on the vista
machine. But the XP desktop does not see the vista machine when accessing my
network places. However, when I select "view workgroup computers" on the XP,
the Vista machine is displayed. And when I select properties for the vista
machine in that window, I get an error message that reads "You do not have
the appropriate access rights for the server." So my desktop knows the vista
machine is there. All the machines use PC-cillin, and have the same firewall
settings. But, I did once have Norton Antivirus on the desktop, but I
removed it using the Norton Removal Tool. Is there a more speciific settting
I have to make in the Vista machine or the XP machine to allow the XP to
access the Vista shared folders?

- Windows XP >> Can I restore the backuped images after I change the CPU and motherboard?Hi,all.
My previous installed CPU is AMD XP 2000 and the motherboard is the
corresponding motherboard, I have backuped my customerized images for the
system and installed application software previously. Now I changed the
hardware, CPU as INTEL CORE E420, and motherboard as 945GCT, Can I restore
the backuped images based on that platform (the harddisk is not changed)? If
I can , what can I do for it? And what are the steps? I really don't want to
re-install the windowsXP , the updates and all the application software any
more.

- Windows XP >> Multiple MonitorHello,
I have had a quick scoot on this site for multiple monitors, but didn't
contain quite what I was looking for. Can you help?
I would like to use WindowsXP pro with two monitors running on one
machine. I would like one application to be running on one screen, and
another application on another.
I am not sure exactly what I need to acomplish this. I have a basic
DELL, and would guess a good start would be to purchase a graphic card
with another display out! :-)
Any help regarding settings, and how this actually works would be most
appreciated.
Thank you,
~ Paul

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> Fail to start, turn off and reinstall System Restore*Fail to start System Restore wizard*
During System Restore, my computer failed to shut down, hence forcing me to
press the power off button to turn off the computer. After turning on the
computer, an error message appeared saying System Restore failed and asked me
to do it again. But when I tried to run System Restore again, an error
message came out saying System Restore cannot protect my computer and asked
me to restart my computer and run System Restore again. Same problem occured
after restarting the computer and run System Restore.
*Fail to turn off System Restore*
Then I tried to turn off the System Restore to turn it on later, but failed.
When I checked the turn off box and press ok, an error message appeared
saying error occured when system restore tried to start or stop some drives
and asked me to restart my machine and try again. Same thing happened after
restarting the computer.
*Reinstalling System Restore doesn't resolve the problem*
After reinstalling System Restore by running "rundll32.exe
advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection C:\Windows\Inf\sr.inf", I still cannot open the
System Restore wizard with the same error message as before saying System
Restore cannot protect my computer and asked me to restart my computer and
run System Restore again.
I'm quite desparate now. Please help. Thanks very much.

- Windows XP >> How to turn off file management?In my application I have some areas where I call the Windows File Open
dialogue. Unfortunately some of my customers accidently move/delete/etc
folders while they are there.
Personally I like the ability to do file management within an Open Dialogue
but I was wondering if there was a way to turn off this option so that some
users couldn't accidentally rearrange the folders on their computer.
Preferably, they should still be able to do this within Windows Explorer.
If there isn't then I guess I could write my own File Open Dialogue but that
seems to go against the point of having a built-in one to use.
Any thoughts would be appreciated
Thanks

- Windows XP >> unread email notice in logon screenI have an MSN account, and use MSN email. 3 people are using this same
account with different computers. My email address is not the primary email
address, but the passport associated with my user account on my computer is
my MSN email account. The logon screen displays the unread mail in the
primary MSN account holder's email address, not mine. How can I change it so
it displays unread email in my email account? thanks, Kevin

- Windows XP MovieMaker >> Imported movie cuts scene off shortI saved my project first as an .MSWMM file, then as a movie file to combine
the audio and video. When I reopen the .wmv file, it's split into two parts.
But the last part has had about 2 seconds clipped off at the very end.
Anyone heard of this?

- Windows XP Network >> Strange Network access auth failuresI can successfully run the systeminfo command against a remote machine,
whether it is a DC or member workstation, with the exception of one
workstation.
The command is: systeminfo /s machinename. It works that same as when
running: systeminfo on the local machine. For one machine, when the
systeminfo command is run locally, or through an RDP session, it works as
expected. However, if that machine is targetted remotely, a prompt is
immediately returned in the command shell as follows:
Type the password for domain\user:
Even though correct credentials are entered, the following error is reported:
ERROR: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.
There is no logon or account logon failure on the targetted machine or the
DC, despite the error above.
I have examined the firewall and GPO settings (RSoP.msc) for that machine
and others for which the command executes as expected and no apparent
security differences exist.
All machines are WinXPSP2, fully patched in a Win2003SP2 domain. Can anyone
provide a possible reason or sugestions for further troubleshooting?
Thanks

- Windows XP Hardware >> Chkdsk runs each time that I start my computerEach time that I start my computer, chkdsk runs the disk check of a partition
(NTFS, non-system) on my hard drive. If I cancel the check, the system (WinXP
Pro SP2) starts and runs fine. I've run several tests of my hard drive
(Norton Disk Doctor, SpinRite, Ontrack Data Advisor), but all of them say
that the HDD has no problems.
I've read the article "Chkdsk Runs Each Time That You Start Your Computer"
(http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=316506) from Microsoft Knowledge Base,
but:
1) chkdsk don't prevent the system to start and work well on my computer
2) I don't use any scanners
3) I haven't upgraded Windows from any version.
So, can anybody tell me what can I do and how can I disable the chkdsk on
Windows start (if it's possible)?
Thanks in advance.

When I dial in I can handshake with the modem but get the

I have tried the local machine name for domain,the domain

- Windows XP Network >> unable to browse network resourcesI have a customer running NT4.0 as a PDC. This past week a
client XPPro system has started acting up. The system logs
into the domain OK with the default user but is unable to
view resources on the network although internet access is
still available. If I try to log in as another user "there
is no domain available, or no permissions to use the
network resources". The only software the user, (The
company owner BTW), claims to have installed is the MS
patches and updates that download automatically from MS.
Answers anyone? I can blow the system away and reload but
I would like to find the problem....thanks, Bob
