  - Windows XP Setup >> internet connections from a motel dialup phoneI need help, recently I've been on the road with my desk top(yes my desktop)
    vaiio and although in the recent past ,like the last darned hotel, I've been
    able to connect to my isp using the dial-up rules in the internet set up
    process. However for some reason I am unable to do so from this motel even
    though I can use the same calling card for regular calls from this line
    whenever I try using the callcard as part of the dialing rules I get a
    notification that my username and/or password are incorrect, when I know for
    a fact they are not. Is there something that the motel is doing or am I just
    missing something obvious this time that I used to do and am not, now?

  - Windows XP Setup >> Re-Activation After Reinstalling XPHelp! I had to reinstall XP after our PC contracted the
    Blaster Virus. Now when Windows boots I get a message
    saying I need to re-activate before I can log on. When I
    choose the "yes" option to activate, XP logs off, then I
    get the same message to reacivate. I called Microsoft
    support (NOT toll-free) and was given an incident #srx-
    031103601818, then transferred to another dept where I
    remained on hold (still on MY nickel) for a good half hour
    before I hung up out of frustration, with no answer or
    solution.

  - Windows XP Setup >> Logging OnI just purchased a Gateway which had XP installed. When
    I log on, it doesn't automatically go to my saved
    settings and my home page keeps coming up "working
    offline." I have to go into a favorites (most aren't even
    highlighted at this point) click on the favorite site,
    then manually type in my home page (for example
    www.yahoo.com) and then it asks my to connect, but I'm
    already online. Can anyone help? Thanks - MPC

  - Windows XP Network >> Printer can't be found on network printserverI have a Konica-Minolta 2300W color laser printer (USB or
    Parallel). I tired to hook the printer up to my linksys
    print server via USB and I can't print to the printer.
    
    I talked to Minolta support and they say they don't support
    the use of print servers.
    
    I have never heard of a printer that can't be printed to
    through a network print server. Is this possible? And is
    there a way around the problem?
    
    I am at an end on this one...

  - Windows XP Support >> Recovering a corrupted user profileHI,
    
    Yesterday I booted my PC and tried to login but received the following
    message:
    'Windows cannot load your profile because it may be corrupted. Contact your
    administrator' followed by 'Windows cannot find your local profile...'
    
    This is bad. I am of course, 10 hours into my taxes on this PC...
    I have logged in using another user account, as well as the Admin account,
    both successfully.
    I ran a checkdisk on my next boot, but no change.
    I tried to copy the user profile in question using System
    Properties|Advanced|User Profiles, but that failed.
    I am currently running a full system image and am about 8 hours into that
    (big system).
    
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how to recover from this?
    
    Thanks!
    Glenn

Enter your username and password. If you don't have a password then leave it
blank.

  - Windows XP Network >> loggin onas guest?, bypassing login?At our office we have a Microsoft Windows Network, our file server is a
    MacOS X server, on this server we have a 'workgroup manager' piece of
    software which details usernames, passwords and file access restrictions.
    We now have some mobile laptops connecting to our network, they also connect
    to the server and access the files.
    However, the laptop users don't appear to be loggin in to the network when
    they turn their machines on and i think that instead of them using their
    previously created username, password(and therefore file access rules) they
    now bypass these and are merely acting as a guest user.
    This is not a job which needs to be fixed on the 'workgroup manager'
    software is it? I think its mre to do with the way in which they are tryingto
    connect. How can i sort this problem, any ideas -they are both usingWindows
    XP Pro.
    
    Many Thanks.

  - Windows XP >> Getting licence number from my installed XP to reinstallI had to reinstall XP on my home PC, in the progress, it is asking me for my
    license key code again.
    
    XP came on this PC when I bought it and only came with a Reinstall CD.
    
    Why would it be asking for my key code again?
    
    Is there anyway to find the keycode on my PC?

  - Windows XP Setup >> Influencing drive-letter mappingsHello all,
    
    I was just wondering about something. I have a dual boot system, both
    OS-es are windows XP. When I install the second OS (on a different
    physical) harddrive then the OS does get installed and maps the
    'windows' drive to the letter D.
    I have 4 harddisks in total. First is basic windows versions. Second is
    for my documents. Third, my downloads, music and video's. And fourth my
    second windows installation.
    Now My default installation (on C) maps the second and third harddrive
    as D and E. This is used by multiple programs. If I want to use these
    same programs in my second installation, the drive mapping is different
    and thereby letting the programs malfunction.
    
    What I would like to be able to do is influence the driveletter of the
    active partition of windows (to F). Is that possible?
    
    Thanks in advance,
    Eddie.

  - Windows XP Network >> Internet Connection SharingI have two computers connected on a network through hub.
    In the first one I have enabled the ICS. The settings of
    the "Local area connection" of this computer are:
    IP address: 192.168.0.1
    Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
    Default gateway: 192.168.0.1
    Preferred DNS server: 192.168.0.1
    The settings of the other computer are all set to auto.
    When I make an internet connection I see both "Local area
    connection" and "Internet connection" icons at the task
    bar of the second computer but I can't open any pages
    with internet explorer. Is there someone who can help?
    Thanks.

  - Windows XP Hardware >> Second Harddrive problemsEvents required me to reinstall Windows XP Home Edition, once this was
    complete I was unable to access my second harddrive. Anytime I attempted to
    open it, it gave the message "do you want to format this drive?" I have
    verified that the device is properly installed through the device manager -
    all drivers show up and are clear of any errors (appear to be anyway). It is
    my hope that someone out there can tell me how to get my system to recognize
    that this drive is available and already formatted for use. Also I am really
    not wanting to recreate/reload all the programs and data to that drive.
    
    At a loss for what to do next.
    
    Thanks

  - Windows XP Network >> Monitoring IP connectionHi,
    I want to know if it is possible to determine a connecting IP address in
    2000, XP and Vista. Sometimes I see the internet connection icon (next to the
    time display) active, but have no idea about the origins of the connection.
    It could be an update or undesired connection. Apart from Norton internet
    security are there other tools available, easy to install and use?

  - Windows XP Setup >> Change of languageGood afternoon... I wonder, does anyone know if it is possible to change the language in which Win XP presents itself?
    
    I have to do some translations of help and instructions for software in another language and it would be so useful to be able to switch Windows between the two so that I could be sure to get the terms consistent.
    
    Thanks in advance for any advice!
