- Windows XP Security >> remote accessI was scanning around inside the heart of my computer
when I stumbled across the Event Viewer when I seen all
these information files and some of them were from the
source:Remote Access. This is the properties of the
files. "The connection to MSN Explorer made by user
35024877@msn.net using device COM3 was disconnected". Now
my username is surely not 35024877@msn.net. Can you tell
me if this is a hacker?

- Windows XP MovieMaker >> DVDsI have created movies from my digital camera through Windows Movie Maker, and
turned into a movie.
I then burn it onto DVD using NeroVision with various chapters etc.
PROBLEM - sometimes the DVD plays on the DVD player through the television
all the way through and then another time it just stops and pauses. I figure
if there was anything wrong with the disc itself then it would not work on
the computer / laptop.
Have gone through many DVD discs re-burning etc and still having problems.
Have a brand new DVD player and still this occurs.
Any help would be much appreciated.

- Windows XP Network >> File Sharing Problem on Home NetworkHi there experts. I'd appreciate some help here.
The setup is 2 computers (one running Windows XP Home the
other running Windows 2000 Pro) connected to a simple home
network. I have admin privileges on both machines. I can
share folders in my profile on the XP machine via the
network using simple file sharing. All users can access
them remotely from the Win 2000 machine as expected.
Problem happens when I try to share folders on the XP
machine that are in a different user's profile. This user
only has limited privileges (if that matters). Anyway,
these newly shared folders are visible remotely on the Win
2000 machine in Windows Explorer. However, when I try to
open the them and view the files within I get "Access
Denied" error message.
Since many other folders are shared on this network
without problem, I assume network setup is working
correctly. I'm even able to share a fold that is directly
under C:\ and not within any user's "Documents and
Settings" profile. What's going on with trying to share
folders in this one user's profile?
Thanks for your help.

- Windows XP Update >> Unable to download and install updatesI am at my wit's end trying to solve this prob. I am able to find 11 udates,
but when trying to download and install them, the computer just seems to
hang. I have tried reregistering Msscript.ocx, Dispex.dll, Vbscript.dll and
Scrrun.dll but this didn't help. I have added the Update website to my
Trusted Sites (Windows Firewall).
My computer is otherwise fine and very quick (Fujitsu Siemens Amilo L
laptop, Celeron 2.4 GHz processor, 248 MB RAM, Broadband connection). I have
McAfee anti-virus software.
Can anybody please help??

- Windows XP Hardware >> accidentally deleted driver - Help!Hello,
I have a rether complecated scenario. Here it is. I
bought a new Compaq presario earlier in the year which
came with a ASUS cd-s480/AH cd-rom drive. I installed a
Plextor Plexwriter 12/10/32A in addition (I took it out
of my old computer which was running windows 98). I
tried to install the software (Adaptec Create CD 4) that
came with the plextor.
After I installed the Adaptec software I got an error
message on every startup that said the driver was not
compatible and would be disabled. The drives continued
to work, however. I located the "offending" files and
deleted them. Now both the ASUS and Plextor drives do
not appear in "my computer." I don not remember the
names of the two files I deleted.
Can anyone offer any advice?
Thanks

- Windows XP MovieMaker >> MM2 Remote Desktop ConnectionHi Group,
i just noticed a bug in MM2
If you try to use MM2 using the remote desktop connection you get an error
message thats says MM2 cannot be used with remote/terminal connections.
But, if you leave MM2 running on the desktop.. then connect to the system
using remote connection. MM2 is running and you are able to open projects and
save movie files.
i am unsure of further functions such as titles/transitions and such...

- Windows XP Support >> Xp hardware question about monitors.Hi all,
I am running windows XP with sp2 installed with a NVidia geforce 440 AGP8x.
Now the trouble I am having is that the hardware profile for my PC is
showing 2 monitors installed and the video card has options for both. Now I
only have one monitor installed and I have tried deleting one from the list,
un-installing it from the hardware profile, but after a reboot there are 2
again.
they are listed as default monitor and plug and play monitor.
The plug and play one is the one that the card is using as monitor 1 so I
tried the uninstall of the default be it came back.
I tried disabling it and when I call up my display properties I still get
options for resolution etc for 2 monitors.
I have an onboard graphics chip but I have it fully disabled and uninstalled.
monitor 1 is a proview/emc/pts em-175 this is the one windows is using and
is listed as plug and play monitor in my hardware listing.
monitor 2 is listed as TV in the nvidia software. If I select this as my
view type the monitor goes into power save mode and I have to hit escape to
get back.
The second listed monitor in the hardware listing is know as default monitor.
I have nividia set to a single display set up so why is windows display
properties allowing me to select resolutiuons etc for 2 monitors? in there it
doesn't list TV it lists the Plug and play which I use and is set to 32bit
1024 x 768. listing 2 is the default monitor and won't go any higher than 800
x 600 32 bit.
these are the listings for the drivers for both.
PnP microsoft driver version 5.1.2001.0
DISPLAY\PTS0304\5&152B52D&3&11335577&01&00
default microsoft driver 5.1.2001.0
DISPLAY\DEFAULT_MONITOR\5&152B52D&3&113377A1&01&00
can anyone help me get rid of this "default monitor" from my hardware
listing so that Windows doesn't see that I have 2 and so my video card only
has set up for one monitor?
Thnx

Windows XP Update >> KB934238
The issue may be caused by the following factors:
1. The installation is affected by some third-party security software.
2. The downloaded installation file is corrupted.
In order to narrow down the cause of our issue, let's refer to the following
steps:
NOTE: Some third party programs can affect the Windows Update service. If
you are running any third party applications such as Spyblocker, Internet or
web accelerators (programs designed to boost the speed of the Internet
connection), security or anti-virus programs (Norton, McAfee, etc.), I
recommend we temporarily disable or shut them down and then try to access the
Windows Update site later. Please be sure to enable them again when the
update process has been completed.
Step 1: Reload the Update temporary folders
=================================
This step can help reload the downloaded installation files.
1. Click Start, Run, type: cmd and press Enter. Please run the following
command in the open window.
Net stop WuAuServ
2. Click Start, Run, type: %windir% and press Enter.
3. In the open folder, rename the folder SoftwareDistribution to Sdold.
4. Click Start, Run, type: cmd and press Enter. Please run the following
command in the open window.
Net start WuAuServ
If it does not work, let's refer to the following steps to manually download
and install the update in Safe Mode. In Safe Mode, security software will not
be launched.
Step 2: Download and install the update manually.
=====================================
1. Please visit the following link and download the update
Update for Windows XP (KB934238
http://www.download.windowsupdate.com/msdownload/update/v3-19990518/cabpool/xpsepsc-x86-en-us_f01c40d4ce7a451a51724bb2c44c164d063938e6.exe
2. Please note its location and install it manually.
Best Regards,
Calven
