- Windows XP Network >> Problems with internet sharing in a wireless network.Hello, i have 2 computers (desktop and laptop) with windows xp home
connected via a switch and a wireless access point.
The desktop computer is connected directly to internet with adsl, and i have
a domestic network (configured with the windows wizard) in which the
internet conection is shared to the laptop computer.
In general the network works fine (i can share files and printer and i can
explore the internet), but i can not access some web pages (in general pages
with search engines); i delete the historial and the cookies but i have the
same problem. I don't know what to set to solve the problem.
In the desktop computer i don't have any problems (i can explore those
pages).

- Windows XP Security >> home networkI have 4 pc all networked. PC1 is the internet gateway. All Pc's can use
the net. But PC2,3,4 cannot logon to PC1 to use the shared drives or use the
printer. I get "Log On filed. You do not have requested authority for this
computer". Or words to that effect. I get this from PC2,3,4, but these 3
can access/use any shared drives on PC2,3,4. PC1 can access the others no
problem. PC2,3,4 seem to think PC1 is a server.
I have never used any passwords on any machine. The system used to work,
then didn't.
All pc's use XP Pro.
Please help, I have tried everything I know :((
Thanks,

- Windows XP >> Wallpaper ClutterI decided to change the wallpaper on my desktop. Running Windows XP. Opened
Display Properties / Desktop and there are many entries in the Background
dialog box that I would like to remove but I can't, no matter what I do. I
can easily install whatever photo I want as desktop wallpaper--that's no
problem but I would like to erase some of the clutter that's listed; I'm not
referring to the default items, just the stuff I must have put there one
time when I was fooling around. What can I do? Stan

Thank you in Advance

- Windows XP Network >> XP notebooks slow to login when not on LANWe have several notebooks (XP SP2) that are all members of our domain. The
people who use them use domain user accounts to login to the notebooks. When
these notebooks are used in the office login takes no time at all and the
notebooks basically respond as our workstations do.
Whenever these notebooks have a "non-corporate LAN" network connection (ie.
wireless at home, etc) connected before initial login, XP hangs for ~90
seconds before displaying the desktop and icons.
With the network connection disabled or unplugged, login takes less than 20
seconds.
Does anyone know of a way in Windows to decrease this delay?
Thanks

- Windows XP >> Not booting up after recent updates (jan 3,2008)I hope any of you could help me out with this bizarre problem!
On Jan 3, 2008, i checked the windows updates, and saw critical updates plus
optional as well...i added video card updates (optional)...my mistake! I
regret! I should have gone to manufacturer's site to download new updates
instead of through windows updates.
Now I can boot up to view POST and Windows Logo...when arrived at
desktop...all black except for 2 white and 1 red pixels at very top of
screen. I tried going into safe mode...stopped at "pagp.sys," it hung up. I
cannot make "last known good configuration" work either...NOTHING that i
could access. I even tried switching video cards that i have on hand...all
not work, even can see POST and Logo, no problem. I had the same video card
for a year now...no problem until that dang optional update!!
I contacted ATI for help...SLOW respond, but at least did reply but my last
reply...on hold. S I G H!
I could try the repair using win xp CD, but how do i instruct it to remove
display driver? I hope to hear from you today!

- Windows XP Security >> NvCpl>Service Pack 6??In System Configuration Utility>Startup, there is an item called NvCpl. I
learned that this is a worm and that I need to address it immediately.
I was directed to the following article:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms04-011.mspx
In the article it states that SRP needs to be downloaded if I have Service
Pack 6. This is related to Windows NT Server 4.0.
I don't want to download anything until I know if I need it. I'm very
confused.
I don't know if I have Service Pack 6.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you,
Michael

Windows XP Hardware >> What is different between AGP and PCI video card?
AGP is a different connection used to allow the CPU to send display infos
(colours, text etc..) to the monitor. You can use an AGP video card only if
you motherboard comes with an AGP slot. It is not the same "cream" colour
as the PCI slot connectors (It is brown.) PCI cards can not fit into an AGP
slot and vice-versa.
PCI video cards tend to be slower than AGP. Newer video cards are mainly
offered as AGP version.
Brand loyalty is still good. The two most popular version of video cards
controlling chipset ATI and nVidia. nVidia does not sell video cards
directly, but make the controlling chips. ATI sells video cards directly
and also allow other manufacturers to sell card based on the ATI chips.

AGP is faster.
PCI slots can be used by other cards. (making it more useful to have an unused
PCI slot than an unused AGP slot)
Before I got a dual-output card, I had one video card in an AGP slot and one in
a PCI slot and was able to view single images on two monitors.

AGP has direct video access, PCI is therefore slower.

- Windows XP Support >> "Access is denied" for LocalService and NetworkService accounts??Hello,
Two days ago I've noticed that some of my system services aren't
starting
and returnig "Access is denied" error. Problem concerns to services
that
are logging to NetworkService and LocalService account only. My idea
was
to change logon account to LocalSystem and now everything works fine,
but
I don't want to leave it for that manner for a long time. As we all
know
LocalSystem account have all privileges and therefore is very unsafe.
Maybe you had such error in the past and can help me to solve it?? I
have
no idea how to enable locked accounts.. :(

- customize >> Date IncompatabilityI am running Windows XP on my PC. I access an online

updated my options through the control panel to the

Can anyone suggest a way of making the date in windows
compatible with the software?

- Windows XP Hardware >> Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 won't "click" reliablyI have a Wireless Desktop: Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 and Wireless Comfort
Keyboard 1.0A
My problem is the mouse. When I reboot my computer, it all works great.
After a while, it doesn't "click" reliably. Everything else works! Moving
the pointer, the wheel, etc. But the left or right button may take a LOT of
clicks to actually get it to work (either single or double clicks). Or, it
may work fine.
It is on a wooden desk. no metal. The mouse is about 1.5 feet from the
transmitter.
Here is the odd thing, It appears to be a software issue. After I reboot, it
works fine! For a while.
I've replaced the batteries, no change.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Bob

- Windows XP >> Why won't Windows Messenger start?A little while ago, I got annoyed that WM would keep starting up when not
wanted, so I took the advice of some tech site and made some registry
changes to prevent it from opening, automatically.
The problem is now it won't open at all, even if I directly attempt to open
it. So, I uninstalled it though the Windows components option of the
Add/Remove Programs control panel and downloaded the install program from
Microsoft.
But even after re-installing, Messenger still won't open.
What can I do?

- Windows XP Hardware >> Disk boot failure insert system disk and press enterI am running Windows XP. My computer and hard drive are about 2.5
years old. Recently, I have not made any software or hardware changes.
Yesterday, after booting correctly and using it for a couple of hours,
my computer hung (this has not happened in months). Turning it off
from Start button was not possible. When I tried the manual reboot
button it gave the message
"Disk boot failure insert system disk and press enter"
I turned it off manually with the on/off switch and on again and it
was OK for a while before it hung again. After this happened for abut
five times, it worked well. I was able to reboot from the Star button
or by pushing the reboot button. I turned it off last night and on
this morning and it is fine.
I ran CHKDSK and it gave no errors.
Is this an indication that the hard drive should be replaced?

the message that windows cannot configure this wireless connection and that
if I have enabled another program to manage this wireless connection, to use
that software. Yes, I used to connect to the internet wirelessly through my
mom's desktop by virtue of a 2 Wire modem that was sent to me by SBC Yahoo.
However, I think I disabled abled it somehow when I moved and got a new
broadband internet connection. I really have absolutely no idea where to
begin here. Please could I have some pointers. Thank you.
