- Windows XP Support >> performance problemsmy computer is a p4 2.66 ghz 256 mb and recently it has been running like a
100 mhz computer...i tried auto restore to before i first noticed the problem
but it has not workd...when i press ctl+alt+delete to check performance it
says cpu usage is at 99%-100%. Even though i am only tryng to open a music
file or click on a folder...the internet is working fine and i have no
trouble browsing at regular speed but everything else is very slow. I tried
antivirus(AVG 7), 2 anti spywares, (yahoo and ad-aware se) and even did a
disk defrag but still no luck...what could possibly be wrong?

- Windows XP Update >> missing proxycfg.exe and winhttps.dllI have been unable to use the Windows Update Site ever since installing the
latest Automatic Updater. When I try to get updates I get as far as the page
"Checking for the latest updates..." and not further and I am getting errors
in the WindowsUpdater.log. I found several threads that seems to describe my
problem but when I tried to run the ProxyCfd.exe too This is not found. I
obtained a copy of the tool from another PC and not is complains that
winhttps.dll is not found. I am running Windows 2000 Pro with SP4 installed
and up until about two weeks ago I was up to date on all available updates.
It would appear I am missing Windows HTTP Services but this was supposed to
be installed with SP3 and SP4. To my knowledge I have not installed
Microsoft XML SP4. Like I said this all started with the install of the new
Microsoft Updater. Can somebody tell me or provide a link to where I can
obtain Windows HTTP Services 5.1 or suggest some alternative course of action.
I do not know if this is related but many (not all) of the icons for
programs listed in the "Add/Remove Program" tool of the control panel are
also missing and this also happened at the same time.
Thank you in advance

- Windows XP >> DEP and Generic Host Process for Win 32 Services -- Errors!! HELPHi Everyone,
Iv had an ongoing problem for a couple of months now and it seems to
come down to this. I get the following DEP error message: "To help
protect your computer,Windows has closed this program. Name: Generic
host process for WIn 32services. Publisher: Micrsoft Corp."
The following message then appears: svchost.exe - application error. The
instruction at "0x009996bc" referenced memory at "0x0000000". The memory
could not be "written". Click on ok to terminate the program. Click on
CANCEL to debug the program.
I've searched article ID: 875351. But it really does not help.What often
follows is a cascade of services crashing out with abnormal
terminations. Please help it's making me terminally mental!!

- Windows XP >> Windows Installer ProblemWhen I try to install a new application I get the error message -
Installation could not be opened. Contact the application vendor to verify
that this is a valid window installation package. I know it is valid because
I installed it once before not too long ago. I have the service pack 2
installed and all updates are done automatically. The problem occurred with
the latest updates on 1/10/08. I am running Windows Installer 3.1 v 2. I
don't know what else to try. Can anyone help me?

- Windows XP Network >> "disabled" Internet connection sharing is actually workingI have three computers using XP's internet connection
sharing and firewall and all can access the internet. It
is however strange on one of the client computer that it
displayed a "disabled" internet gateway. When I tried to
enable it, it showed connecting...connected... but
still "disabled". It however can access the internet and
only that the window messenger in this machine cannot get
connected.
History on this machine is that I have tried to uninstall
the window messenger and outlook express and then
reinstall them again. Is these related with this strange
disabled ICS while I am still able to access the internet?

- Windows XP >> Can not preview or print web pagesI have a Pentium II 333mhz PC with a fresh rebuild of XP
Pro and I.E 6 with all the lastest service paks and
recomended critical patches. Everything works perfect
with this system except for the fact it can not print
preview or print web pages. This is the same symtom I had
before I rebuilt this PC. I can not find any articles
anywhere that explains a fix. I know XP Pro should not be
installed on a 333MHz pc but it appears to work fine
other then this issue. Any advice is appreciated

- Windows XP Setup >> Upgrade?I have a win98 machine and a W2K machine. We would like to upgrade. The
machines both have the power to run XP Pro. Is XP like 2000 in respect to
upgrading? I was running 98SE, I stuck in my 2000 Full edition CD and it
upgraded for me. Will the full version of XP do that? Or do I need to get the
upgrade CD's.

- Windows XP Network >> Removing Network ConnectionsI want to remove some unused connections but don't the

When you right-click on:

greyed out. How do I remove unneeded connections?

- Windows XP >> Installing Update 1 of 1 message when shut down PCI am running Win XP Pro. When I shut down the PC, it alternates text between
"Installing Update 1 of 1" and "Please do not unplug or shutdown your
computer." The PC spent 16 hours or so doing "Installing Update 1 of 1"
with no visible progress. Hwo can I fix it?

- Windows XP Network >> Direct Cable Connection Between XP and 98SEI have a relatively new desktop running Windows XP (Home
Edition). I also have an older laptop running Windows 98
(Second Edition). I am trying to set up a direct cable
connection between the two. I have set up similar
connections with the laptop before, but never with my desktop.
I tried to set up my desktop as the host, by creating an
"Incoming Connection" option in my "Network Connections"
Control Panel. I could not get this to work, however.
When I tried to connect my laptop as guest, it would say
that the Parallel cable on LPT1 was disconnected.
I then set up my laptop as the host, and created a "Direct"
connection to it through my "Network Connections" Control
Panel. When I connect in this way, the two computers do
connect, and I get an icon in my system tray telling me
the connection speed and bytes sent and received.
However, I then tried to access my laptop through my
desktop, and ran into troubles. I went to "My Network
Places", "Entire Network", "Microsoft Windows Network", and
finally to "Mshome" (this is the name of my workgroup).
When I double-click on "Mshome", I get an hourglass, and
finally get the following pop-up error box:
Microsoft Windows Network
"Mshome is not accessible. You might not have permission
to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of
this server to find out if you have access permissions.
"The list of servers for this workgroup is not currently
available"
I have only one user account on each machine, and they are
both the same name (neither have password protection), so
don't think it's a username/permission problem, but I could
be wrong.
I then searched the Microsoft Knowledge Base and found
Article 298804 stating that I should not have a firewall
set up (I originally did) to do direct cable connections.
However, I undid the option for that connection, and ever
restarted my desktop computer, but got the same result.
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Windows XP Network >> FTP connection problem
Hi,
I use Windows XP with SP1. I used to use FTP server set up
on my computer as well.
After some problems with IE I decided to use some programs
which suppose to remove any spyware, adware etc. That was
the end of my FTP server.
Other computers are able to see my computer but connection
fails. That is strange that I am able to reach my computer
from computer connected internally in home network.
I noticed two things. If my internal network is active (I
allow to use my computer connected to Internet as gate)
FTP connetion cannot be established - external computes
see me but it seems that there is some kind of time out.
The same if I turn on internal XP firewall - normally I
use Kerio (it is not a reason for my problem, with turned
off I still nothing).
Pings are ok, ports seem to be open.
Any ideas.
Thank you very much for any help.
Best regards,
Fornol

- Windows XP Setup >> move files from 98se sys to new XP sysSubject: move files from 98se sys to new xp os
I am setting up a new home pc with Win XP. My old system
ran Win 98se. I would like to move some old files from
98se system to new PC that will run XP. I was hoping to
install XP on my new, clean HD as a master and then slave
my old HD (with the 98se), and then just transfer the data
that I wanted to keep. Can I have a master drive with XP
installed and a slave with 98se? Will the new system look
at the 98se reg/boot files at startup or will the startup
only process the reg/boot info from the master? Would
this be treated like a second partition? If the old HD
was a bootable drive, will it still have to be recognized
as bootable? If I want to leave the old drive in the new
system for data only, are there still minimum "system"
files that will need to be kept or could I keep just
the "My documents" folder? Thanks.

- Windows XP Hardware >> can't find IDE drive to install XPHi there,
I installed a new Asus P5LD2-VM and I have the CD Rom hooked up to the
secondary red controller.
The IDE hard drive is connected to the primary blue (80 pin) controller but
when the XP CD boots up, it says it can't find a hard drive.
At the BIOS, it lists the hard drive as being there, but yet the XP install
comes up with it saying that it can't find the hard drive.
I know this board has SATA connectors on it, but I'd like to be able to use
the IDE hard drive as the boot drive.
Any ideas??

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> KB826942 locking up mutiple wireless routersI have found that after applying KB826942 to my Win XP pro system, my
wireless routers are locking up about every 30 minutes.
I have had this problem on both a USR 8022 wireless router and an SMC 7004
VWBR router (both running latest microcode) using both a Cisco 350 wireless
adapter and a USR 2216 wireless adapter.
I have the routers set to use 128 bit WEP with open authentication.
Removing this fix has stopped the problem and I am able to recreate it on
two different machines. How do I notify Microsoft of the issue with this
fix?

- Windows XP Network >> Copying SettingsDoes anyone know if you have a network of mixed OS's, say WinXP home, WinXP
Pro and Win9x and you are trying to move on to all WinXP machines and make
redundant the Win9x machines. Say you have one WinXP with a good setup, can
you backup the settings and transfer them to the rest of the WinXP home
machines so that they are all equal. I realise that you would have to
rename the rest of the machines before you re-connect to the network.
Does that make any sense??

- Windows XP Security >> How to change the firewall settingHi,
I have two questions:
1. There are two places in XP that control File and Printer sharing. One is
in the properties of Local Area Connection, and the other one is in Firewall
setting. Which one takes effect?
2. After I install Windows XP, the file and printer sharing in firewall
under Exceptions tab is unselected by default. How can I set all computers in
my domain with file and printer sharing? Using Group Policy? How to?
Any help will be appreciated! Thanks in advance!

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> Problem!!!Please help me! Everytime that I attempt to open a
programme linked with Windows XP the message 'preparing
to install' etc. comes up on screen. If I press cancel it
remains and when it finally realises that there is a
problem installing it tells me that the programme I am
trying to install is on a removable disk and 'please
insert the Microsoft Office XP disk' of which I don't
(and never have) had! How do I get rid of this annoying
message? I think it started after I downloaded Kazaa onto
my computer. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

- Windows XP >> Graphics card upgrade questionNot sure this is the best place to ask but....
The graphics card in my 5 year old WinXP PC has died. If I install a more
modern graphics card will I have problems with the old drivers preventing XP
producing a display? ..or will XP detect the incompatible card and default
nicely back to VGA and allow me to install new drivers ?
It was a Gainward Geforce 4 Ti 4400 and now it's smoke. I've actually found
someone with a nearly identical Gainward Geforce 4 Ti 4400 for sale but they
want nearly £70 for it.

- Windows XP MovieMaker >> Help with scrolling creditsThis is the first time using WMM2 and after getting my video imported I
decided to make some credits but soon reliazed a draw back. The credit
animation I want to use is the Scroll, Up Stacked. What I am needing to do
is get a list of people who are all in one group listed in the credits but
when I enter in the text there is a large gap between the members names. Let
me give you a example.
I want to add a group named Committe Members and have 7 different names
listed. The credit title page where you can enter in the information is
layed out like a spread sheet with two columns. I entered in "Committe
Members" on the left hand column and on the right side column I entered in
the first member (John for this example.) I then entered the second member
on the line below John (row 2 right side column) and lets use Mary for this
one. The result looks like this
Committe Members
John
Mary
But what I want it to do is look like this
Committe Members
John
Mary
I can't seem to figure out how to do this or if it is even a option. I have
tried to do a CTRL-Enter as in most cases this lets you enter a line break
when enter is mapped do a different function but this does nothing.
