- Windows XP >> How to Add ShortCut Icon to System TrayCould you please advise me to how to Add a shortcut icon to system tray
(notification area), just near the time watch display.
I found some third party software to do this, but the condition of the third
party software is that the software must be there, if we remove their
software it will not view that shortcut icon in the system tray.
My requirement is that is there any coding method OR some set up changing
method in windows XP, so that I will be able to do so.
Please advise .

- Windows XP >> GMT causing machine to slow downI have a box running XP Pro. The machine is very
sluggish when performing local tasks as well as network
related tasks. I noticed that a process called GMT is
using 5-10 % of the processor utilization. When I kill

What is the GMT process and is it necessary?

- Windows XP Security >> Auto Defrag ScriptI am looking for a way to incorporate an auto defrag into the shutdown/logoff
via group policy. The command line is:
defrag c: -f
(forces defrag of C:\)
My problem is that when I reboot or logoff, it takes forever. Now this is
not a problem at the end of the day, but during the day I can't have it.
Is there a way to have the cmd window appear when the script runs so that I
can just close it out if I don't want it to run?

- Windows XP >> xp will not startafter fitting a new motherboard cpu and video card, my windows xp will
not start. I swapped the original hard drive with xp installed, which was
starting fine.but since swapping the new motherboard and bits it will not
get past the black boot up screens. all it does is constantly restart. I
have tried safe mode and it still does the same. I put the hard drive back
in my old pc and it starts fine. am I missing something?

- Windows XP Setup >> Undisclosed Change in MUI?I ask this for the following reasons.
A: We're a multi-national that routinely deploys MUI packages.
B: We've gone from W2K to XP SP1, with minor SP2 deployments.
C: We deploy English and Japanese MUI configurations.
D: We've stayed stable on the same version of Lotus for several years. 5.0.5
Here's whats happening now:
In Lotus when creating an attachment that the OS explorer window see in
Kanji, Notes now states "File cannot be found" when creating the attachment.
Renaming the File into English allowing attachment to be created. A problem
when going to a reciepient that cannot read English.
Also in Lotus now, Email Created internally in Kanji can be sent and read by
other internal clients. Email created internally in Kanji can be read by
users external to our environment. Email created in Kanji externally cannot
be read internally in Kanji. So users externally who cannot read or write in
English cannot communicate to our environment. A Very Big issue.
Attempted solutions
XP SP1 Fully patched
XP SP2 Fully patched
Office 2000
Office 2003
Local Client installs of Notes of a pure Japanese Client
Local Client installs of Notes of a pure English Client with Unicode enabled
and all fonts set to MS Gothic.
Shared Server Client with Unicode enabled and all fonts set to MS Gothic.
This issue also only appears when the regional settings of the machine for
the user are set to Japanese as the primary environment.
I sat in the Concierge chat and unfortunately, no documentation can be found.
Has there been a change? RIS installs arent available to me at the moment
due to Broadcom NIC issues, SATA Driver issues etc on our images.

Windows XP Support >> Problem playing DVD with wmp11
I have a dual boot system with Windows XP and Vista Home Premium, both
systems fully updated.
Commercial dvds will not play correctly with wmp11 on the XP system (colours
are incorrect) but does play properly on the XP system. Audio files play
fine with both systems. The hardware is the same for both systems.
My feeling is that the codec on the XP system is not working correctly. How
can I check it and, if necessary, replace it?

As far as I know - Windows Media Player does not come with the necessary
codec/decoder to play DVDs.
What that means is that something on said systems has installed the decoder
to play MPEG2... And it may/may not be the same decoder on both machines.
Did either come with some application like PowerDVD or WinDVD?

Thank you for your response Shenan. I have now fixed the problem by updating
to the latest graphics card driver. Nothing to do with codecs!

- Windows XP Setup >> problem with DSL and dial up modem after RegeditI spent almost 90 minutes trying to help a friend solve a computer
problem. The friend has two computers, a desktop and a notebook. They
swap a DSL direct connection by plugging and unplugging the cord to the
DSL modem. The problem is that the desktop no longer can access DSL,
or dial out with its 56k modem. The friend suspects that an improper
usage of Regedit when certain lines flagged by the antivirus program
were deleted instead of modified. Unfortunately, no backup export of
the Registry was made.
I did a cursory search for troubleshooting modems on the Internet. The
home computer was working fine one day, and then the next it was not.
So far the only symptoms are problems with the modem and DSL. The
device driver is there. Running a modem test from the Device manager
shows it there. Yet, it can not do something so simple as dialing out
using the phone dialer in the accessories folder, much less dialing up
for Internet. The error message is no dial tone. If wait for dial
tone is disabled, the modem looks like it keeps trying to dial out, but
I don't think it is doing so. (The sound is turned off.)
It may be a hardware problem, but modems rarely fail just for nothing.
There are no cats or pets to dislodge the wiring. Also the DSL modem
works fine for the notebook, but not at all for the desktop, so there
is definitely something up with the desktop. Thanks for any
suggestions. I am tempted to go for the panic button and do a fresh
install of Windows, but there must be intermediate solutions to try
before the scorched earth solution. I will do more research, but I may
be in over my head.

- Windows XP >> XP doesn't find hard driveHello-
I used Drive Image 7 to copy the computer's hard drive to
a new drive. The data appears to have transferred
properly. Both drives (master & slave)show the same files
and folders in Explorer). I then remove the original
(master) drive , set the new drive to master and reboot.
The drive is reported correctly in the system's BIOS. But
after the Dell splash screen, I get the message that it
can't find a drive.
I put in the XP Pro CD and booted from it to the Recovery
Console. I ran CHKDSK and the drive was found and had no
errors. I then entered FIXMBR and it successfully wrote
the boot record. I tried FIXBOOT and received the message
that a drive could not be found. I'm stumped. Any
suggestions are most welcome. Thank you.
