- Windows XP Hardware >> New Mobo and ProcessorOS Windows XP Home SP1 (and all updates)
I have just installed a new PC Chips Motherboard DDR 266
and an AMD Athlon XP 2400 in my computer. On rebooting
the machine the system stalled at stalled. I restarted
and went to safe mode. System stalled at MUP.SYS but I
assume that it may have been the next setting that caused
the problem.
I tried a repair install from the booting from the
Windows XP CD. It went through the process until it came
to the "windows is not starting........." (or restarting
can not remember) screen and then the system reboots.
This goes on continually until I turn the power off.
If i try to intervene by pressing F8 while booting and go
to safe mode it gets as far as the safe mode screen with
safe mode written at the top and the bottom, then it
reboots the system.
Please help. I have 4 user accounts and seperate PST
files etc set up in outlook and DO NOT want to do a fresh
install.
Please help. Any other information you require just ask.

- Windows XP MovieMaker >> editing a movieI'm new to this. Somehow I lost the project I was working on. I was able to
retrieve most of it but ONLY IN SAVED THE MOVIE VERSION. Now, my timeline
looks totally different in that several clips are in one frame. When I try
to add a collection, etc., it adds at the end of the movie. I, obviously,
was not finished and now I need to know if I have to start completely over!
Please advise!
Thanks a million.

Is there some way that I may get all of the product keys

- Windows XP >> Transfer Files from Hard Drive After Computer CrashedMy computer refused to boot and, after hearing the cost to fix, I decided on
an early Xmas present and bought a new one. I would like to take the old
hard drive and recover files from it. Is there a way to do that short of
taking the new, almost unused hard drive out of the new computer and
replacing it with the old drive? Any USB tools or Firewire that will hook
directly into a hard drive and allow me to transfer files to the new computer?
Thanks

- Windows XP >> Sorting out my Mum's computer; error logging in XPMy 70 yo mother tells me that her computer "locks up" and that the "screen
freezes" sometimes.
Of course this never happens when I am there to fix it.
Is there an error logging system within XP that I can access to see what (if
anything) is going wrong?

- Windows XP >> Annoying MS Windows Setup screen on startupI was attempting to do a repair install from my XP Pro CD recently and
got a little confused when I initiated the OS install from my XP Pro CD
(thinking the "repair" option would pop up ay some point) . Well the
"repair" option didn't appear in the beginning stages of the install so
I just got a little scared and bailed on the install.
Now whenever I startup my computer I get a black and white screen that
asks me to choose between Microsoft Windows XP Professional OR
Microsoft Windows SETUP or some such thingy. I select MS XP Pro of
course and everything loads up fine but I would really like to find a
way to elminate that black and white selction screen.
I am a bit gun-shy to frig around anymore without some more expert
advice.
Thanks in advance!

Windows XP >> Network connections with USB-why not?
Trying to hook up two PC's to transfer some files. The only options available
in the network connection wizard are Wan Miniport, LPT1 and COM1. I can't USB
to USB with a crossover cable? Is there a work around for this? Also there is
no choice of ethernet/ethernet. Seems strange. I checked out the knowledge
base...it just directs me to standard network connections.
Thanks

You must allow the USB drives to be shared. Right-click them
in My Computer, then click "Sharing".

Windows XP >> Network connections with USB-why not?
If you intend to hook up two PCs to TRANSFER DATA, then you can use a
USB-to-USB cable for the same. This cable comes with a software. Install this
in both the desired systems and the connection ready to transfer data.
This would help you just to transfer data. If you planning for some other
purpose then I suggest you to use network cards.

- Windows XP >> Error On BootupGetting "Strike F1 to retry boot, F2 for setup utility". Also getting
"Previous fan error" message and did note the fan stops and starts. tried
another duplicate fan on this Dell 8250 and it worked, but still got the
"Strike F1 to retry boot, F2 for setup utility". Changed the system battery,
same issue even after resetting the date and time. Going to try slaving the
HDD on another computer, but is it possible the loss of the fan damaged the
processor?

- Windows XP Hardware >> Mouse Freezes :(This is frustrating...
I recently formatted my harddrives and re-installed
Windows XP. Everything was working fine until my mouse
started freezing at random. It first happened during an
online game of Age Of Mythology. But it also happens
while playing the Campaign in AOM and also when I'm not
even playing the game at all. When it freezes the light
on the mouse is still on but the cursor won't move when i
move the mouse.
I made it so that Windows does not turn off the USB ports
to save energy but the problem still persits.
It is a Microsoft Intellimouse Optical 1.1A and I'm
pretty sure I have the latest driver for it (I have
5.1.2600.0)
Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

- Windows XP >> Outlook Express 6 and Acronis True Image ProblemI am thinking of switching from Norton Ghost to Acronis True Image for a new
machine I am putting together.
I have downloaded the True Image Trial Version and used it this morning to
back up my C: (System Drive) and my D: (Data Drive including the Outlook
Express Store Folder.) During the back up process, I did some work with
OE.
After both backup processes completed, I went to OE and found all my
Newsgroup subscriptions had disappeared. Panic time. I restored C: from
the True Image file and the subscriptions appeared just as they were before
the backup.
I wonder if any one else here uses True Image and has experienced this sort
of thing. Could it be that working in OE while the backup process was
running caused this problem?
I have Googled this to see if there might be some restrictions on using the
system (XP Home) while the back up process runs but have find none.
Thank you for any insight on this.

- Windows XP >> My Documents folderHello all,
When I open my computer, in the Files stored on this computer, my folder is
empty except for the desktop. ini. When I open My Documents everything is
there, when I access thru docs and setngs everything is there. The only thing
I have done is disk cleanup, chkdsk and defrag, that was a few days ago and
to tell you the truth I'm not really sure how long this folder has been this
way. I don't usually access my docs from there. I run weekly anti virus and
spyware scans, results are clean. I don't even know if this really matters,
but all the other user account doc folders contain their documents. I've even
logged in on each user account and results are the same. Anyone have any
ideas?

- Windows XP Setup >> Cannot install ANY additional Windows ComponentsI have been trying to install Fax Services and IIS.
I am running Windows XP Professional with all Windows Updates applied
When I use the Windows Components Wizard, it does not matter which checkbox I select, the behavior is the same: it runs through the entire installation, gives me no errors, but then, the components I selected were not installed. So, for example, if I run the Wizard again, the selected checkboxes are now once again unchecked
The same thing happens in Safe mode, in Diagnostic mode....... doesn't matter
Help...!?
