- Windows XP >> Thinkpad keyboardI upgraded from Win 98 to XP pro. When I have the
computer docking and use an external keyboard, everything
is fine. When I take it off, the numberpad, on the
keyboard works and cuts out the letters. I can't get it
to work properly (and no, the num lock is not on at that
point) I can't locate anything from windows suport, or
IBM suport that shows this problem. Any help would be
appriciated.

- Windows XP Network >> RPCService shuts down xpAfter installing windows xp home in a Titan laptop and
setting up dial-up using the wizard the computer will
access the isp but the display lights in the system tray
show continuous activity. This is a clean install of XP
home and the HD was fdisked and reformatted NTSF prior to
install. After about 3-4 minutes a system shutdown
message appears indicating that the system is shutting
down by NT Authority/System. 1 minute is allowed to save
work and then the system is shut down and reboots.
The modem is a Zoom V92. This happens on any isp
connection which is used.n
The Titan is a model 7521T, Bios is Phoenix. XP is home
version 2002. No updates have been attempted.

- Windows XP >> kazaa does not starti know this newgroup is specifically for windows and it is a bit awkward to ask a question about kazaa. but i do not know any place where i can ask this kind of question. i recently downloaded kazaa lite. but when i start the program it is stuck. i only see the borders of the screen. and finally i have to "end task" the program. i tried all the versions of kazaa lite from several sources but the problem remains the same. i meanwhile tried Kazaa media Desktop which DID WORK on my pc. but only kazaa lite does not work.

- Windows XP MovieMaker >> vcd to where?I have some CD's that contain VCD recordings. I believe they were made from
VHS tapes using Hauppauge software and their video card. They will play on
my PC using the Windows Media Player. There is no way they will play using
my Panasonic DVD player-recorder.
This may not be the right place for this question, but, I have exhausted
every other avenue.
Is there any way these recordings can be converted to DVD format so as to
enjoy on the DVD player. The original VHS tapes have been destroyed.
HELP! PLEASE

- Windows XP >> XP Home/cable modem loses connectivityHi,
XP Home Edition, Cable modem, 1.8 ghz processor, 512 RAM,
Symantec Internet Security Suite (Norton's AntiVirus).
I got my cable modem configured, and everything worked OK
for months. While building a second PC, I took the NIC
out of the first PC temporarily. When I reinstalled it
in the first PC, it lost all connectivity to the
Internet. I worked with Adelphia on it - the only fix
was to reinstall XP - and all my other applications.
Now, I've done it again. :^( Whenever I start XP, it
says my network cable is unplugged. It isn't, and I do
have a Link light on the modem. The receive light
flashes, and the IP address/DNS, etc. are correct. I
cannot ping any domain names.
Is there a registry hack or something I can do to prevent
having to reinstall everything ?
Thanks,
Lannie

- Windows XP MovieMaker >> WMM thinks I have no memory left in My Computer.I had finished making a music video. I clicked the "Save to my computer."
When the Windows Movie Maker Wizard shows, I chose my video's destination to
be "My Videos."
I clicked "Next." Then, when they ask for my video size/selection, I chose
"High Quality (small)." This means my video should be 320 x 240. I click
"Next."
Note: My computer C drive has 46.37 GB left
However, when they showed me the saving progress, it shows me "Save to my CD."
"You're movie is being recorded and saved to a CD."
I don't understand. My destination was supposed to be "My Videos" in my C
drive.
Plus, it stays at 0%
I don't know what's going on. I have plenty of memory left and I don't know
why it thinks "My Videos" is full.
Please help me and thank you.

- Windows XP >> MSN Messenger cuts out Strange!Hi I posted this on a MSN Messenger group but never had a satisfactory
reply.
I chat with a friend most nights on MSN messenger v7.5. We both have Windows
XP SP2 with the latest updates. I use Blueyonder broadband and my friend
uses UClub/Plusnet ISDN.
When we are chatting using Voice conversation at exactly 01:00 we lose the
connection and I get a pop up that he has ended the conversation and he is
offline. His messenger icon has a red cross on it and on clicking the icon
he gets a message that he is not connected. He then clicks connect and he is
connected then starts an audio conversation and every thing is OK. Now the
strange bit. If I connect remotely with his computer and take charge of it
before 01:00, when he loses the connection I can click on his MSN icon and
sign in to messenger and start a voice conversation with myself from his
computer. All without him doing a thing.
So it would appear that he is not losing his internet connection as I have
control of his computer but something is cancelling his voice conversation
at exactly 01:00. Has anyone any ideas what could cause this? As I said he
is not losing his internet connection nor remote access only the voice
conversation.
Totally baffled Ron
p.s email does not work as it is full of spam etc

- Windows XP Support >> Bluetooth Adapter needs Generic driversI did this before....
As i recall in win98 etc, if u didnt want to use the recommended driver for
lets say a printer, you could choose from ANYTHING you liked, heck you could
install it as a mouse. It wouldnt work but you could.
Now in winxp it wont let you do jack all, so when i want to install the
generica bluetooth radio drivers for my bluetooth dongle, i had to open the
sp2 inf file and alter the Pid's around so that it installed as a generic
radio automatically....
Then windows crashed burned and died, the repair function didnt work, so
reinstall, now i have to do it again and i dont remember where the inf file
for bluetooth radio's is...
Can any1 help or show me another way of simply installing different drivers
for the radio...
Cheers

- Windows XP >> ActiveX ControlsThis week I started having problems with several web sites I visit.
When I click on an item and go to a new page I get the following message:
Your current Security Settings prohibit running ActiveX controls. As a
result, the page may not display correctly. (I have not changed any of my
settings recently)
I can't go any further with the page and I have to use Ctrl + alt + delete
to close the page.
Earlier this week I installed from Microsoft Widows Update KB831167 and I
think that might have something to do with my problem, but I can't find a
"Uninstall" for it.
Any ideas?
Thanks

- Windows XP Setup >> F6 doesn't see the USB drive -no floppyHello,
I've installed XP on a quite a few computers but never learned the trick to
get around F6 on setup to install drivers for the S-ATA controller if the
system does not have a floppy drive. I can bring a floppy to my clients in
case but it would be great if I could specify my usb thumb drive. Some
systems do not have drivers for certain S-ATA controllers such as various
Promise models.
I know I have that issue on my own system - MSI FIS2R with a SATA 378
controller - ulsata.sys. I know I've tried various options - so far
haven't figured out the right one.

- Windows XP >> no dialup on ie openHi all
Strange problem on xpsp2 home machine.
When i open ie it doesn't bother making the dun box appear.
Possibly the result of gad-networks.com malware.
Even pgraded to ie7 but when offline I just get the following
res://ieframe.dll/dnserrordiagoff.htm
Outlook and firefox are happy to dial the usd adsl modem automatically,
after which ie will work ok.
Have done all of the obvious- eg delete modem/ dialup
accounts/neverdial-when network not present-dial default/quickly
scanned registry.
Have spent hours googling and following the advice given to others but
to no avail.
Am confident that the pc is malware free.
Haven't come across this before so any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> SP2 'breaks' Windows ExplorerHello. I just did a fresh install of XP Pro, and then I
installed SP2 right after. Everything is fine, except
that my Windows Explorer utility is having problems. I
have two physical Hard Drives and the second HD has two
Partitions. In Windows Explorer, when I click on the
left hand pane, to see the last partition of the second
HD, Drive G:\, Windows Explorer takes a significant time
to show the contents of Drive G:\-about 2-3 minutes. And
if I click on Windows Explorer while it hangs, it crashes
and takes down Explorer.exe as well (thought, after a few
seconds I return to a normal desktop.) But if I wait it
out, eventually G: drive content showsup, but I have to
wait way TOO Long!
But this doesn't occur if I use 'My Computer' icon on the
desktop. I can click on G:\ drive w/o any problems. And
if I'm in Windows Explorer and I first click on My
Computer first, and then click on the G:\ drive icon on
the RIGHT side pane, no problems. Only when I click on
G:\ drive on the left do I get issues. BTW, I first
tried out SP2 after I upgraded from a XP install with
SP1a and I never had this problem. Only after the fresh
XP install?
Anyone have any ideas of what I can try to do to fix this?
Thanks a million

- Windows XP Setup >> Windows XP install with external CD driveI am trying to install XP on a newly installed Maxtor hard
drive. Since the external CD drive requires a driver for
the cpu to recognize the drive, I cannot run setup from
the CD.
I downloaded the diskette version of XP. Then attempted
to run setup from the A: drive. It went through the
motions of loading the 6 disketts. It then asked for the
CD to be loaded. Of course this dosen't work because the
CD Drive is not active at this point.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
