- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> How to make XP CD Format when Clean Installing??Help! My friend has a new computer, and he already kind of goofed up the
registry (after just three days, ai-curumba). So he wants to do a clean
install. He does have the XP full install disk. However, we ran into a
problem.
When we did what we thought was a clean install, it seems that the hard
drive was not formatted, so that the pre-existing mess of program folders
created by my friend still resided on the drive, and it almost seems like
the registry had the same program entries as before. So, what the heck, we
wanted to just reformat the hard drive to wipe everything clean, and then
install everything from the very beginning.
But, how do you make the XP CD forma the hard drive when doing a clean
install? (When we did the install we chose to keep the previous disk
partitions the same, and installed XP to its previous location. I'm
guessing this is the reason the XP CD didn't reformat the hard drive?? If
so, how much space should we leave for the OS partition? Total drive space
is 60Gigs.)
Thanks for the help!

- Windows XP Network >> (newbie) frequent need to restart wireless routerI tried searching around newsgroupd but couldn't find a clear solution.
I have an AirLink AR315W wireless router and a max 6 PCs connect to it.
Two of these PCs use 802.11g and the rest use 802.11b on DLink and
AirLink cards. All PCs use XP's builtin wireless configuration and the
router is doesn't use any encryption.
My problem is occassionally the network simply "hangs" Plain and
simple, I can see the SSID from the client PCs but when I hit "Connect"
it just won't push through. Only solution is to restart the router.
This happens about 10+ times a day and its getting frustrating.
Any suggestions?

- Windows XP Update >> Windows XP Won't Update!!Hi,
I have a Windows XP machine which is attempting to get updates from a SUS
server. (Oh dear I hear you say.) I get the updates downloaded successfully
and they then begin to install. However, upon completion, I check the event
log only to find that the update in fact has not installed at all. I'm logged
in as Local Administrator so I should have full access.
However, if I then check the installation log of the updates which had
problems, it says: Failed To Enable SE_SECURITY_PRIVILEGE
Setup encountered an error: You do not have permission to update Windows XP.
?? Why don't I?? I am an administrator. I'm a bit lost on this one. I'm not
a huge fan of SUS but this is a bit daft!
Any idea's?
Your help would be gratefully appreciated.

- Windows XP Security >> Access denied on WorkstationThis is a long question. I hope you will take the time to read and help
In my simple 2 workstation, Windows XP HOME network, I am logged into BOTH machines with administrator priviledges, no passwords-no restrictions.
If I create a folder on workstation 1 over the network from workstation 2, then I cannot access that folder from workstation 1. My access is denied
I can access the folder only from the workstation from which I created the folder
Is there any way to overcome this
This is a problem because I have reinstalled "workstation 2" and now cannot access these folders at all. I really don't want to reformat the disk, but I need to access and then delete these folders in question
Booting into safe mode is no help.
