- Windows XP >> WinXP: TCP/IP fails if "File and Printer Sharing" is enabledWinXP: TCP/IP fails if "File and Printer Sharing" is enabled
A new installation of XP Pro.
Initial setup gave me the 4 default components:
Client for MS Networks (CMSN)
File and Printer Sharing (FaPS)
QoS
TCP/IP
Running DHCP via a router.
Removed QoS.
Packets get sent from the machine but none are received.
Checked ICF and it is not enabled.
Disable everything but TCP/IP, "repair" the connection and all is well
(except for being able to share).
Enable CMSN and connection stays good. However, if I reboot I have to
go back to disabling everything except TCP/IP, repair the connection,
and then add CMSN again.
At any time if I enable FaPS, the connection dies immediately. I test
this by having multiple pings going and as soon as I enable it, the
pings fail.
I've made certain that TCP/IP is the only thing bound to FaPS. No
help.
Uninstalled & reinstalled FaPS. No luck.
Tried it over NetBEUI. Works for a brief period and fails on reboot.
NetBIOS is enabled over TCP/IP.
Any help is appreciated!!

- Windows XP Setup >> settings not being saved in administrator accountsettings not being saved in administrator account in XP pro.
I did a search at win update and only found 15 references that really didn't
hit the question.
I have 2 accounts administrator type, but don't need 2. I'm the only one using
this machine.
This machine seems to do exactly what it wants to do.
For the past few weeks I've been trying to make the admin account the main
account and just use that one and delete my 2nd one and just set up one of
those others that has to exist as the backup admin account.
I can't get the admin account to save the most basic settings. ie: every boot
you need to change the mouse settings. It can't add wallpaper from another
drive, it can't use the slide show screen saver cause the pix are on another
drive.
folder settings disappear immediately after you close and reopen a folder.
And the list goes on from there.
It has considered the admin account the default user and boot to it when it has
a problem. Trouble is I have to reset stuff then log into the backup account
cause the admin is worthless..
How do I make the admin account work like the 2nd account ?

- Windows XP Hardware >> hard disk life span power managementhi!
i was wondering, what's best for saving hard disk's life span through
power management.
there are two main considerations i can think of:
setting power management to deactivate hard disk every 15 min or so.
this would keep the disk cooler and improve life span.
but opposing that some people say stopping and starting the hard disk
frequently is really bad and deactivate hard disk should be generally
set to never!
what do you think?

Windows XP Update >> 926436 downloaded-installed twice
Now what? I only checked this one update to install-926436. Progress showed
it downloaded (1 of 1 update) and installed. However it showed this
downloading and installing twice. Then said to restart. I have not
restarted yet. Will this cause some problem? It is listed in Add/Remove
only once. Should I remove it and not restart?
(XPSP2)
Thanks.

Judy,
Installing an update on top of the same one will not cause an issue.
Please reboot and see if it's offered again.
Once the system has rebooted, show hidden files, folders, and system files :
Then navigate to the WINDOWS\system32 folder. Locate oledlg.dll
Right click it and choose Properties, then click the Version tab
The correct version of the file from the update is 5.1.2600.3016

- Windows XP Security >> Windows - Delayed Write FailedI am using WindowsXP Professional on a P4 1.8G system.
I recently used EasyCleaner by ToniArts (freeware/no support) to clean up
TEMP files and think that may have contributed to my problem of not being
able to back-up to my 80Gig external harddrive.
Here are the error messages that I am receiving:
1) DELAYED WRITE FAILED - Windows unable to save all the data for the file
"drive:file name.bkf" The data has been lost. This error may be caused by a
faiure of your computer hardware or network connection. Please try to save
this file eslewhere.
2) DRIVE ERROR - The device reported an error on a request to write data to
media. Error reported: Unknown Error. There may be a hardware or media
problem. Please check the system event log for relevent failures.
I have pretty much eliminated the hardware because I can still backup to the
80G drive over the network. I just cannot backup my C: drive which contains
about 28G of data.
My inclination is that I have deleted necessary files that need to be
replaced, but I have no idea how to replace them or even what needs replaced.
I would like to re-install windows, but I cannot save my drive contents due
to the error received, so I need some advice on what course of action to take.
Thanks . . .

- Windows XP Hardware >> XP doesn't recognize flash drivesI'm running XP on a generic P4 box. I've just gone to
Microsoft and downloaded
all the new patches.
I have a Sony Micro Vault that works fine. Other flash
drives, from Belkin
and Lexar, aren't recognized at all. The OS recognizes
that something has
been plugged in, but the device manager just
shows "unknown device" afterwards.
I've tried the Belkin drive on an old Win 98 machine with
a driver downloaded
from Belkin and it works fine. So I know both the drive
and the USB ports work,
but not together.
Any ideas?

- Windows XP >> XP Home BackupI installed the backup from the XP CD. I set up a password protected

backup file.
Is there something special that must be done to get it to run?
Thanks

like PC 2700 and PC 3200. How do I find out which kind my machine has

- Windows XP >> Error when attempting to delete or move filesWhen I try to delete or move some files/folders I get the
following error message:"Error deleting file or
folder....cannot delete [filename]:it is being used by
another person or program. Close any programs that might
be using the file and try again."
I opened the task manager to see if there were any
applications running that could possibly be using the
files/folders in question, but there are none in use.
Could there be a background application in WinXP that
would be using the files that would keep me from
moving/deleting files? Just a note...most of the files
are 600mb or larger. I did not know if there was a
problem with large files in this situation or not.
Please advise. TIA.

- Windows XP >> XP bug (?) - file share registry not flushed when removing a hard driveAt my desktop PC I have a separate physical drive for personal files,
documents etc.
On this drive I have set up a few file shares, such as:
D:\Documents And Settings\.....\<my username> shared as Documents
D:\Multimedia shared as Multimedia
Suddenly this drive (D:\) crashed, WinXP could no longer read it whatsoever.
WinXP was still intact of course, as it runs on a different physical drive .
Then I did the following:
1. Removed the drive letter assignment (D:\) in Computer Management\Disk
Management
2. Removed the disk physically from the PC
3. Bought and installed a new disk
4. Formatted the new drive and assigned drive letter D: to this drive
5. Rebuilt the directory structure and restored data as best I could :-)
To my surprise I could observe that once I created the directories that were
corresponding to the Documents- and Multimedia-shares on the crashed disk,
they were automatically shared, using the old share settings!!!
I would say the "bug" is that file share information on a drive persists
even when the drive's drive letter assignments is removed.
In my scenario, at first this behaviour was quite comfortable - the process
of restoring my system as it was before the disk crash was cut short by a
few step.
However, things working "by coincidence" does not make me 100% confident in
my system's healthyness. Especially as I suspect the hard drive crash to be
WinXP software related in the first place.
Any comments on WinXP inner workings for managing file share information
relevant to this scenario is appreciated, although I primarily wanted to
share this "oddity" with you.
For the time being, I continue to run the system that works "by
coincidence". If anyone with knowledge on WinXP's inner workings on this
consider that risky, I urge you to tell me... :-)

- Windows XP Security >> Game is deleted when I run Norton's System's Works 2002I need some help. My husband and I have our separate
user accounts on my Win XP machine. (I am the
administrator, he the power user). I continually do
maintenance on a weekly basis using a variety of tools,
mostly Norton's System Works 2002 quit button check up.
Yet I have noticed that everytime I use the quick checkup
option or any other option, my husband's video
game "Balduir's Gate" is then uninstalled!! It seems to
do this on it's own with no command from me. So now,
whenever I run NOrton's, he has to reinstall his game!
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
