- Windows XP Security >> Starting XP with user that is not in the Admin group.I can not start Windows XP with a user that is not in the administrators group. I have tired both the user and power user group. This started after I tried to change the security settings in the registry for a program that has to update a registry key when starting up. I do not have a back up. I create a user, joined them to the user group, went in to the registry, found the three entries for the program and added the user group with full control to those keys. This did not work so I went back to the three keys and removed the user group. Now when I try to log on using that user I get the start up sound but nothing on the desktop In task manager the only service I can stop is the taskmgr for the user I am trying to log on. I also can not start a tast through task manager like say Explorer. When using a user that is in the admin group everything works fine. Any ideas? Thanks in advance

- Windows XP >> Unable to delete read-only folders - access deniedHi,
I've been trying to remove quite a few (>10) read-only folders & their
subfolders by following the workaround instructions found at
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/256614, but I'm still unable to remove the
folders.
I created a new registry key UseSystemForSystemFolders and modified the new
value to Type 1 in Registry Editor. Then I tried to use the attrib command
prompt to change the read-only attribute by using attrib -r +s C:\V\Vids. But
it says Access denied.
What else can I do to get rid of these folders? Someone please help me out,
thanks very much in advance!
Sincerely,
Regine

- Windows XP Network >> Upgrade from ME produces no internet and no soundcardHi,
After years of insisting that my Windows ME was just fine to get me what I
needed, I broke down and upgraded after finding out that my school sold XP
pro for $5.
Anyways, the installation was fine, except that now I cannot access the
internet and it says that my soundcard is not installed, though both worked
perfectly with ME.
When I try an autofix with the network (my apartment's T1 line), it
recognizes the server but says that it cannot get the server to send my
computer a new IP address.
Any suggestions?

- Windows XP >> RPC Disable Now Enabled and computer is sooo SLow HELP??Greetings
I had the NT Authority virus (it restarted my PC every 15 mins).
...................................................................
Scenario
I did the following:
selected the Remote Access Connection Manager with the secondary
mouse button and select Properties. Then set the Startup Type
to "Disabled" and then "Stop" the service. Remember to Apply these
new settings (just click Apply or OK)
Then Went to Remote Procedure Call (RPC). Again go to the Properties
for
this service. I selected the "Log On" tab at the
top of the small window that popped up when Properties was selected.
Now go down to the area labeled 'You can enable or disable this
service
for
the hardware profiles listed below' and click on Profile 1 and
"Disable" this service.
....................................................................
Now I could not manage to enable the RPC services back again, hence I
did it in
Regedit, by going to current control set, servics.
In fact anything that should be accessed through right clicks isn't
working anymore. I cannot run defrag on my machine, my only hope was
to try system restore, and now it is not working. I tried running
Repair in Windows XP
the process stopped at C:\Windows...
Any ideas on how I could fix this?
Cheers

- Windows XP >> IN NEED OF SERIOUS HELP - MANY PROBLEMSFirst of all, I have quite a list of viruses I found on my computer, there all unable to be removed, and have been found and contained by an Avast! Antivirus. I am the host of a wireless network, and am afraid that the viruses can spread to the other computers, is that possible? Here is a list of the viruses I have seen so far.
JS: Ezploit-Bytverify-2 x4
JS: ClassLoader-1
Win32: Kuang2
Win95: Matyas x2
Next, my Microsoft Word still has some problem and shuts down after 50 seconds of being used; I have much to do with this and must have it fixed ASAP.
I also detected some bugs in the registry via Ad-aware 6.0 that couldn't be removed a while ago, but when I scanned today to show in this letter it was gone. Is that possible ether?
I must have these problems addressed as soon as possible, help will be gratefully appreciated. If anyone has any information that can help me with this, or needs more detailed information may email me.

Are these data files? If so, just connect both drives to a single system
(being sure to jumper correctly) and use Windows Explorer to copy the files.
If you mean, for example, to transfer Windows XP and program files,
instead, perhaps because you got a new hard drive, then the first thing to
look for is whether a partition-copying utility came with the new hard
drive; that's the easiest way, if so.
It usually helps to get the most appopriate answer if you provide more
details than your question contains, such as what you are actually trying
to accomplish or why.

- Windows XP MovieMaker >> Making a MovieI'm trying to make a movie for all our senior football players. I have
pictures from each game, dinners etc.
How do I get the segment of pics from certain games and functions of that
week to end together (audio & pics) without cutting the song off.
I want them to start and finish together (not cut it off and start a new
song & new week). Is this possible?
Do you understand what I'm trying to do?
THANKS!

- Windows XP Security >> Restrict websites for some users onlyOn a given Win XP Pro machine on a peer-to-peer network (no server or
proxy), I have six users accounts. I would like two of these accounts (with
admin privileges) to have unrestricted access to any website, but the four
remaining ones (with limited privileges) to have restricted access to only
websites I will specifically preauthorize, just a handful.
My router filtering feature is a all-or-nothing solution for all the
network, not something I want. Same with a number of software-based
solutions I found, including configuration of hosts file. Other solutions I
found require commercial softwares that do not support multiaccount Windows
installation.
Configuration of Internet Explorer is not an avenue as it is not the
browser used on that machine.
I would preferably need a free solution.
Any advice or link welcomed
Thank you !

- Windows XP Support >> task scheduler in accessoriesI have installed norton systemworks and it set up schedules for several
features (one being antivirus scan); they all seem to run as scheduled except
for the antivirus scan. On it I get an error message (The attempt to log on
to the account associated with the task failed, therefore, the task did not
run.
The specific error is:
0x80041314: The task has been configured with an unsupported combination of
account settings and run time options.
Verify that the task's Run-as name and password are valid and try again.)
The run-as is listed as Acer/user and I am unsure of the password; when I
try to insure I have a valid password, it gives msg saying I am not allowed
access to this type action even though I am the computer administrator.
Does anyone know how to correct this problem?

I have been trying to set up my Fax which is part of Windows XP.
I have set it up and connected it to the phone line, but it isnt being
recognised. I've had somebody try sending me a fax as well, and they cant,
and I'm stumped as to why it wont send or receive.
Can somebody help? I have this feeling it might be something to do with the
TSID and CSID. I am not sure I understand what they are.

- Windows XP Security >> Password Mysteriously RequiredMysteriously, my Win 98SE Laptop began asking that a
network password be entered in order to access my Win XP
Home system folders and printer. These items are properly
shared, and previously I could print and access files at
will without the use of any password. Note that both
systems were initially configured to operate without
passwords. Presently, I'm unable to print from the laptop
and cannot access files on the XP system because of being
asked for a password that to my knowledge does not exist.
Any ideas for corrective action?

- Windows XP Update >> Win2K Won't UpdateWhen I run Windows Update on my Windows 2000 system, it finds the updates
that are needed. It then sits for a few minutes trying to get them, and fails.
The result is a screen that says "Updates were unable to be successfully
installed"
It then lists all of the updates that it did not install (all that it
attempted). No other information is provided as to what it is that failed.
Please help! Thanks!
