- Windows XP >> Loss of Help and Support CentreI know there have been a number of mails posted about the
loss of the use of Help and Support. I've read them all
reloaded PC health, used the fixes (Kelly's Korner Doug
Knox) and checks suggested and everything SEEMS to be in
order,,,,BUT I still cannot get Help and Support to work.
Has anybody got any ideas at all. (Whether its related or
not I can't run System Information)

- Windows XP Security >> Using SRP to allow users rights to certain files.Can SRP be used to allow a USER to install a certain program if that
program EXE is listed as "Allowed" under Additional Rules?
Also, is there another rule aside from Unrestricted? That one
allows/disallows based on user level. Is there anyway where it would
universally allow without considering the user level?

- Windows XP Security >> Downloaded security updateMy laptop got infected with the sasser virus and I cannot
access the needed security and antivirus programs on the

- Windows XP Security >> XP SP2 blocks PDF filesEver since installing SP2 over Win XP Pro I can no longer
open locally-stored PDF files in my browser. For example,
if I create an HTML document and link to a PDF file on my
hard drive, it will not open and instead I get a security
warning and an image placeholder that displays in the
upper left corner. This occurs even though I select the
option to "allow blocked content" when prompted by the
Information Bar.
What's strange is that SP2 does allow me to launch Acrobat
and open PDF files across the Internet, but not those
stored locally on my hard drive.
A solution would be greatly appreciated.

- Windows XP Network >> Network Path Not foundI had a power outage the other night. My system came back up but now I am no
longer able to connect to any of my shares on any computer. I receive the
"Network Path not found" error.
From my other systems I can access the shares on the bad computer with no
problems.
Here is what I have done.
1. Made sure no firewall(s) were running.
2. Ping the other machines with no problem, name lookup also works
3. uninstalled the network card replaced it with another card.
4. changed the workgroup name and IP addresses of each computer
5. reinstalled sp2.
6. uninstalled both Microsoft client and file and printshare then
reinstalled.
I can do everything dealing with the network except access windows shares on
this computer. Any help would be great. I would like to fix this rather
than blow the system away and reinstall clean.
Thanks

- Windows XP Security >> XP Home, userpasswords2 and Power Users - deadly combinationI posted this question on the end of an old thread - didn't check the date first. As it's not going to get seen there, I'm going to repost, please forgive the double-post.
I'm used to XP Pro but am currently on a 'loaner' computer while mine is in the shop. I didn't realize there was a limitation in XPHome with Power users. I renamed and changed my account to a power user in Userpasswords2, which Home doesn't support. What this means is I can ctrl+alt+del twice and type in the username and password, but my account is no longer shown on the Welcome screen, or in any userpasswords control applet. Any ideas how to set this account back to administrator?
Thanks.

Professional. I now want to create two new accounts but

- Windows XP >> Work Offline/Try again messageVery frequently "Work Offline/Try Again message" pops up
while I'm in the Internet Explorer, and yet I'm on a
cable connection with other internet items up and
running. Is there a reason for this or a setting I need
to modify to stop this, or could it be a firewall setting?
TIA

- Windows XP >> Custom Memory Settings Lost after Re-BootI just built a new machine with a gigabyte of RAM & shouldn't need a 1 1/2
gigabyte page file. I have gone through the steps to customize the pagefile
settings and they work fine until I re-boot. Then I find that pagefile.sys
has again swollen to 1535 MB. At first I thought that my settings of min 20
/ max 100 were simply too low and therefore ignored by XP. But even with
settings of Min 200 / Max 800 I'm seeing the same behavior. The Bill James
pagefile monitor shows typical session usage hovers around 10-15 MB. What am
I missing here?

- Windows XP Basic >> A newbie question: activating XPGreetings,
I'm new to Windows - have been using Mac for many years. In order to run
some of the sofware I need for my work I bought an used PC, NetVista by
IBM, where the terminal and system is made as one unit. It had Windows
XP installed in it. Surprisingly, the system turned out to be very
stable, with no problems and crashes. But I guess it's a human nature to
create problems where there aren't any...
Each time upon startup I was getting a message "new upgrade is ready for
your computer." First I was ignoring it, but then one not so fine day I
thought, "what the heck, let's do update and see what happens." What
actually happened is that my computer downloaded Service Pack 2 and then
asked me to activate the Windows. When I pressed the activation, it
informed me that my product code had been used by another computer and I
need to pay $240 for activation. I paid for this computer much less
than that and, besides, I'm planning to buy a brand new system in a
couple of months.
So what should I do now? Before I installed the Service Pack 2 it never
asked for any activation. Now it gave me 30 days to activate. From
reading other posts in this group I realize that after 30 days my system
will stop working. Should I try to restore the system to previous state
by unistalling SP2? I just need this computer for a couple of more
months before I buy a new one. One more thing: when I bought it, I
bought it "as is" (at office liquidation sale) - with no disks or
instructions. It never occured to me that my OS might by pirated - it
was seemly respectable office, after all. I haven't talked yet to
Microsoft customer service yet.
Thank you in advance for any help and advice.

- Windows XP >> documents and settingsI don't know how to do a screen capture, but under my D&S folder there are
20 sub-folders. There is Admistrator, Administrator.Goldberg,
administrator.goldberg.ooo, all users, all users.windows, etc. Some are
localservice.nt authority.xxx, networkservice.nt authority.xxx, etc.
I would like to know which ones I can consolidate, and how do I know which
is the "main" one my computer is using so after consolidation I can delete
the other folders.
Some of the sub-folders are Application Data, Cookies, Desktop, etc but the
sub-folders are not the same in each folders, i.e. not all have "application
data".
Thanks!!

- Windows XP Security >> mY computer has slowed down to a crawl following last MS downloadFollowing the last microsoft ugrade or patch or whatever
it is called when you send patches for security, my
computer which has cable high speed access has been
slowed to a crawl, I cannot receive mail on Outlook
Express, I keep getting messages that I need to free up
disc spaCE, I delete files and a message appears saying
disc space has been cleared and then the message
regarding low disc space comes up again. I checked for
viruses but did not find any. I did receive some e-mail
notices saying that mail was undeliverable because
the "too big virus" was attached. I delete all e-mails
from people I do not know without opening them. I have
always done this, but I do beleive a virus has gotten
past my firewall and virus scans. I checked with comcast
and the problems I am having are NOT related to the cable
company services.

- Windows XP >> SYSTEM CRASHES WHEN OPENING DOWNLOADSThis problem has showed up lately, and the only thing i can think of is that
i upgraded explorer to 7. When i download certain programs, or files (the
ones zipped seem to have this problem) and try to open them all windows open
start flashing and nothing will stop it not even the CTRL-ALT-DELETE
combination, so i have to force shut down. I have no idea what is going on
or how to fix this. One program though, that refused to open after download,
worked just fine when they gave me an alternate download place. ??!!! no idea
why. thanks for any help you provide and sorry for not using all the
techno-words.
