- Windows XP Hardware >> Xp Wont Recognize Gamepads connected to my USB ports.Title says it all pretty much. I have a Phillips PC Recoil gamepad(from
Walmart). Whenever I connect to it my rear USB ports it's not even
detected but the pad powers up(lights ect). When I connect it to my
front USB ports it's detected as a USB device(But no lights ect) but
only for a short time. Twice it did recognize new hardware was
connected but not long enought to do anything. When I check the Device
Manager it's listed as an Unown Device. I've tried installing the
drivers first to see if it helps but no effect(Software wants the
device connected to finish intallation). I' ve checked my Bio's and
everthings set there. It's been giving me a headache for three days
now. Any suggestions?

- Windows XP Network >> XP Network Bridge ProblemI'm at my wits end, and can't seem to find anyone having the specific
same problem I'm having. If anyone can help, it would be HUGELY
appreciated.
Here's my setup:
I have a PC upstairs that is running XP Pro, connected to the internet
via a cable modem, running ICS, and connected to a Linksys WAP. I've
got multiple machines connecting to this WAP successfully (two laptops,
my PDA, and a Tivo). The WAP has a WEP key and MAC filtering.
Downstairs, I have three PCs connected to each other through an
Ethernet hub. One of the PCs (running XP Pro) also has a wireless
adapter (a Belkin USB adapter) that works just fine AS LONG AS I DON'T
BRIDGE IT WITH THE ETHERNET ADAPTER. As soon as I bridge it, although
the wireless appears to be connected the MAC Bridge Miniport does not
get an IP from ICS, and the machine loses connection to the internet.
I've put the MAC Bridge Miniport's MAC into the MAC filter list. I've
deleted and recreated the Bridge a dozen times. I turned off IEEE
Authentication on all connections, including the Bridge. I even put
the Ethernet card's MAC in there for good measure. No dice.
Yes, I turned on promiscuous mode on the Belkin wireless adapter, and
followed the Crawford article
(http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/expert/crawford_02april22.mspx).
The worst part is, this once worked. It all stopped working when I
UNPLUGGED THE MACHINE. Reboots didn't kill it, but for some reason
losing all power (while I rearranged the room) did.
PLEASE HELP!!

with Pinnacle Studio AV/DV Version 9? I'm using a P4 2.0 win XP with 256 ram.

- Windows XP >> Welcome screen semi-freezeI'm running XP Professional. I've got an admin account set up with a
password, and several user accounts with no password. Beginning a week ago
or so, I started having trouble at the Welcome Screen (The one with the icon
for each account.) It would semi-freeze, so that clicking on the icon for
the any user account or clicking on the "Shut down" button would do nothing.
If I click on the Admin icon, it displays the thing to enter the Admin
password. When I enter the password it logs me on as Admin. If I then
immediately log off (doing nothing else), then the other icons work perfectly.
System info: 2 GB RAM, (originally) 320 GB Maxtor hard drive. 142 GB of
free space. Windows XP Professional SP2. It is almost fully patched, except
for Genuine Advantage Notification Tool and IE 7 (but I almost never us IE,
instead I use Firefox), and a few .NET and DRM things. I'm super faithful
about updating my antivirus stuff. I'm behind a firewall that blocks all
incoming connections.
A couple of months ago my hard drive started making an occasional clanking
sound. I called the company I got the computer from (Cyberpower), and the
shipped me a replacement hard drive. Alas, it was not an exact replacement:
300 GB instead of 320. But I found a utility on the Maxtor web site that let
me copy the old disk to the new disk. That worked flawlessly. Then I
installed the new disk as the live hard drive. There were only 2 complaints:
(1) Photoshop asked to be reactivated, and that was just one click. (2) The
next time I ran Windows Update, it said I had to update the updater, and that
installed Genuine Advantage (not the notification component, which is
separate). Genuine Advantage had been installed long ago. But my guess is
that the Maxtor tool copied at the file system level and Genuine Advantage, I
think, works like a root kit and thus is invisible to the file system, so it
didn't get copied.
Any ideas?

- Windows XP Network >> Network problemI have two computers connected on my network, my desktop and laptop.
Everything has been fine until a couple of days ago when i was unable to get
access to my laptop through My Network Places, however the internet is still
running on both computers. I have tried different trouble shoots and have
ran the network wizard setup several times but I'm still unable to find out
the problem, my laptop no longer has access to any file shares or the printer
which is connected through my desktop via USB and my desktop is unable to
access any files on my laptop.
Can anyone shed any light on this matter?

- Windows XP MovieMaker >> TV to Dazzle 150 to Computer to VHS TapeHow do I get an edited capture back to VHS from my computer?
I capture TV to my computer via the Dazzle 150 unit and edit with
moviemaker or pinnacle studio. I do not have a DVD burner.
I don't know how to play my edited capture on the tv and record it using
the VHS player/recorder.
I've got a Panasonic VHS player/recorder. Regular TV viewing is via
cable and playing a tape requires turning the TV to channel 3.
Any ideas on how to accomplish my goal of moviemaker file or pinnacle
studio file back to VHS?
Thanks,
Bryan

- Windows XP >> Shut Off problemRecently my computer has been acting strangely. When
I "shut it off" and windows XP turns it off, the computer
will turn itself back on after a minute has elapsed and
XP will restart. Why has this started happening all of a
sudden? It seems as if it isn't fully powering off and
actually restarts itself. Does anyone have a suggestion
as to why this is occurring and what I can do to fix it.
Thanks bunches.

- Windows XP Support >> XP keeps restartingHello all; I'm new here, but I was hoping someone has a solution to my
problem...
I was working around behind my computer when I accidentally yanked out
my wireless ethernet card from the USB port in the back of my desktop.
(In case it's important, it's a Belkin Wireless G USB Network Adapter.)
At that instance, my entire computer clicked off. Odd (and frustrating)
because it's a simply plug-and-play USB peripheral.
Since then, the computer won't start properly in any mode -- normal,
safe, last known working confirguration. It makes it to the logo screen
with the green progress bar, you can hear the processor working, it
loads for about ten seconds on the logo screen, and it restarts
entirely.
I checked, and all of the stuff inside of the computer is attached (I
didn't knock anything loose). I tried disabling the USB ports in the
system BIOS, and I tried starting up with the wireless card attached
again. Nothing I've tried has worked, and the computer keeps restarting
without getting past the first logo screen.
I haven't yet, but I'm ready to go out and buy external casing to pull
all the data off to another computer, at which point I'll wipe the hard
drive clean, but I wanted to know if anybody has any suggestions.
Anything at all would be greatly appreciated.

- customize >> Help, please!Last month I installed Nero Express on my computer.
Yesterday I uninstalled it in order to install Nero
Buring Rom. Nero Buring Rom didn't work, so I decided to
install Nero Express once again. But when i tried to
install it (Nero Express) a message showed up saying that
there was a fatal error during installation of Nero
Buring Rom, and so Nero Express could not be installed. I
deleted the register keys of Nero Buring Rom, and I also
deleted its folder manually. But I still cannot install
Nero Express.
Does anyone know what should I do? I do not have a cd-
burnign software right now!
Thank you.

- Windows XP Hardware >> Removing primary drive when XP on secondaryI have a dual-bootable Win98-XP system with Win98 on 40GB HD with C
partition. XP is on secondary 40GB HD which is defined in XP as disk I.
This is where all my XP applications are installed. Now I want to
eliminate the first HD (the bootable one) and move XP HD to primary and
make it bootable. Is this possible to do?
I have a spare 40GB HD onto which I copied my XP NTFS partition plus
ntldr and ntdetect and boot.ini. I altered boot.ini to change the drive
to the primary. I then booted the XP CD and went into the repair
console and used the FIXBOOT to make the partition bootable. I then
made that disk the only disk and primary. When I booted, XP booted up
to the initial screen and then kept saying there was an error trying to
verify the registration and would not continue. I suspect that the
problem is that the partition letter is C instead of the original I, so
all the paths would be wrong.
I also tried the repair from the XP CD, but when it rebooted, it said it
needed a file from the XP CD, and wanted the path to it, but no matter
what I entered, it could not find it! It appeared that it was not
recognizing the CDROM drive.

- Windows XP >> Win Explorer hangs on My ComputerJust recently, Windows Explorer started to hang or
continually search when I open it up. On open, Explorer
defaults to My Documents folder, without any problem, but
if I click on My Computer, it will not find anything; it
just keeps searching for something.
The only changes made to my system in the last day were
downloading a small recommended security patch from
Windows Update that seemed to lag during installation.
And I also recently uninstalled & reinstalled Adobe's
student version of Publishing Suite. Before all that -
everything seemed fine. No viruses were detected although
my subscription is a month or two expired.
Anyone have any suggestions? Please advise.

- Windows XP Network >> Network Path Not Found ErrorNetwork layout is a small peer to peer network with each computer on the
proper addressing subnet and in the same workgroup. Each time I try to go to
one of the network computers I get the Network path not found error. I know
that there is a registry change to do after installing SP2 but I don't
remember what it is. It changes the way users authenticate on the network.
Can anyone point me to the proper register key to change?

- Windows XP Update >> Windows Security UpdatesDo security updates have to be installed in a specific order. For example, I

- Windows XP Hardware >> drivers?I have a laptop that I recently re-installed WinXP Pro on. I was able to
install all the devices except the onboard sound device. I have the correct
drivers and they install fine, but Windows is not working with them. When I
install the drivers using the setup program or through Device Manager, the
"Multimedia Audio Device" moves from the "? Other Devices" to the "Sound,
video..." in the Device Manager. However, an "!" is next to it and when
viewing the status of it, it says that the drivers are not installed. If I
restart, it remains the same. According to Device Manager, Lavalys Everest,
SiSoftware Sandra, and my computer's manual, the device is a "SiS 7012 Audio
Device". However, if I let Windows auto-install the drivers, it installs
drivers for a "SiS 7018 Audio Device", and these drivers still don't work.
If I have Windows search for the drivers in a specific location, it will find
the 7012 drivers and recognize them and install them, but they still don't
work. I have tried disabling the device, uninstalling the drivers,
reinstalling the drivers, installing the drivers in safe-mode and none of
these have any affect. What should I do to get these drivers installed
properly?
