Why does XP put system volume information on all three drives? Isn't this

- Windows XP Hardware >> Can not boot once USB 2.0 external hard drive installed on Windows XPHi all,
I installed an external Western Digital in an external USB
2.0 case to
my Compaq computer yesterday. The hard drive (once
formatted) works
fine once I plug it into the system and I can use it as an
extra drive
which is great.
However if I "REBOOT" the Windows XP machine, it hangs
after memory
test and will not continue to boot. If I unplug or
poweroff the
external USB 2.0 hard drive, booting continues fine.
The guy below had exactly the same problem as me back in
2002 but I
did not see any replies.
Any ideas ?
Thank you,
Rudy

Date: 2002-01-11 18:40:11 PST
I recently purchased an external USB hard drive for
backup purposes.
The USB drive is actually USB2, but it is backward
compatable with
the
older standard. I'm not really concerned about speed, as
this is
a
backup drive.
The problem is, if the USB hard drive is connected to the
computer,
the computer will not boot. It will hang at the end of
the memory
test. I have tried several different USB ports, I've
looked
through
various settings in my BIOS, and have even formatted the
drive with
NTFS (I'm using Windows XP).
The hard drive *does* work, I just have to disconnect it
from the
computer whenever I have to reboot. Then when the computer
boots,
reconnect the external drive. Is this normal? I'd like to
leave it
connected to the computer if I can.
I can't find anything on Maxtor's Knowledge Base, and
nothing remotely
coming close on Google's archive. Any insights will be
appreciated.
Thanks.

- Windows XP Hardware >> scanner problemsI've had my computer for about a year and a half. Over
this time period my scanner periodically decides not to
work. It goes thru the process of scanning, but all I get
is a white screen when it's done. I've tried un/ri the
drivers, un/ri the sw for the scanner. I've tried using
win xp sw to scan it, all gives me the same results. I've
fixed it before, just by unplugging/replugging the usb
port in. It is an Umax Astra 3400, it came with my Dell
computer. I would so appreciate if someone could help, I
use my scanner a lot for school purposes- majoring in
Elementary Education- doing lots on the computer!
Thanks in advance-

- Windows XP Network >> VPN connection and web browsingHi
I have a work VPN connection which i need to have connected most of the
time. When it is connected i have trouble browsing the web because all
the requests go over the VPN connection. I also lose my MSN messenger
connection, I was wondering if there was a way to set it up so that all
requests bound for servers not on the works network are routed straight
out over the internet. I run Windows XP pro and have a linksys
broadband router, my company IP scheme is 194.62.153/154.* and my home
network scheme is the arbitary 192.168.1.*
Any help would be a ppreciated even a sugestion of a windows technology
to investigate.
thanks in advance

- Windows XP Support >> Desktop shortcut IconsPlease Help,
I'm new to XP and I've been setting up a new computer with XP Home, and I
had saved many website icons to my desktop as shortcuts. Then, after running
the XP
"program compatibility wizard" to configure an older HP printer for my new XP
computer, all my shortcut icons have now changed to a generic looking
Internet Explorer icon letter "e". Now my desktop looks terrible, looks like
I've stored a bunch of files on my desktop.
For example, if you go to the MSN website, and then in Internet Explorer go
to File/send/shortcut to desktop, you are supposed to get the MSN butterfly
icon on your desktop that you can use as a link to the MSN website, right?
But now, no matter what I do, no matter what website I go to, I can only get
the letter "e" icon saved to my desktop. It looks terrible, and you can only
identify the website icon by the text printed below it......Help
How do I get the icons I'm suppoesed to get instead of the generic internet
explorer letter "e" icon? ? ?
Thank you for any support with this.

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> desperate, help needed!!!!!I don't know what is going on with my computers???
My old computer was restarting on its own, I turned off
auto restart. Then it started going to the blue screen.
This happened several times until I could no longer get
windows to boot. I had the computer "repaired" at a
reputable computer chain. They say that everything
checked out ok. When I got it back the same thing
started happened again.
I decided to cut my losses and buy a new pc. Now the
same thing is happening to the new pc and it is brand new.
What is going on here??? I thought maybe someone
embedded a virus in my cable modem, but found out that
isn't possible. I am running mcafee internet security
6.0 which has a firewall. When I test the firewall it
checks out. Both computers are running with windows xp
and both have a pentium 4.
Please help me out..

- Windows XP >> "Internal Memory Reference Error" When Closing Iexplorer in XP ProA very strange condition started occuring about 1 week ago. I haven't tried a
restore to early date yet.
Whenever I close Internet Explorer, I get the following error: "Internal
Memory Reference Error" and it also gives the reference point. This error
does not occur with any application, it stills runs just as fast and
applications run flawlessly. I tested my memory and it did not provide any
clues as it tested fine.
My big fear is that the memory controller on my motherboard is going bad,
but it is pretty much brand new. Asus K8VSE Deluxe with 2GB's (2 x PC3200,
400 DDR RAM).
Any Suggestions or Help? Could this be a virus?

Windows to download nessicary codecs but it still won't import the files
needed... Any suggestions??? The files play in Media Player

- Windows XP Security >> Windows Firewall UPnP exception bug?I have a strange problem with Windows Firewall (I think). I set my Xbox 360
to connect to my Windows XP SP2 PC running Windows Media Connect 2.0 and all
works fine... except when I turn my Xbox 360 off and then on again, it can't
see my PC unless I uncheck the UPnP exception in Windows Firewall, save that
setting, then check it again and save. Suddenly, my PC is visible to the
Xbox 360 - the second I hit the OK button after re-enabling the UPnP
exception.
What's going on?

- Windows XP Setup >> Server connection conflicts ???This relates to a new installation of Windows Xp Home.
Adsl installed and using IE and Outlook Express.
Problem: When the internet is accessed by clicking on the ISP's icon, it
fires up and connects no problem. However, when trying to send mail from
Outlook Express it comes up with an error stating server issue. Same happens
with IE. All account info is correct.
However if the internet is fired up by clicking on Outlook Express and then
the logon screen, everything works fine.
Clearly there is some setting that is causing this. Can anyone help?

- Windows XP Support >> Bad,bad,bad: NO Sync software can handle RENAMED and MOVED files !I was searching for a really good sync software which is able to recognize
renamed and moved files. But much to my surprise all of the tools I have investigated so far
are very dumb. The maximum they detect is if a file exists on the other side or not.
Is calculation a (CRC32) hash of files really so difficult?
That way a rename or a move of a file can be detected without problems.
I have tried out so far:
SyncBack(SE)
InSync
SmartSync
Allway Sync
All these programs view renamed files as two independent programs and suggest them (in the preview mode)
them to copy to the opposite side. As a result I got TWO files.
Maybe some guy here knows another tools which is able to detect RENAMES and MOVES.
