- Windows XP Network >> How to Network 2 computers thru Router w/broadband cable modem (road runner)Help!
I have two windows xp pro computers that I want to
network to share a single broadband cable modem
connection. Both computers have network cards installed
and connected to the router. The cable modem is plugged
into the WAN port.
Road Runner customized my internet explorer so it could
connect to the cable modem but doesnt see the router when
I type in the IP address.
Will the network wizard help me to connect to the WAN
through the router? If so how?
Thanks

- Windows XP >> Unhandled Exception c0000005When I boot up my computer I get <Unhandled Exception
c0000005 at Address 100016b8> I click OK and then it
tells me:
PromulGate Universal has encounteed a problem and needs
to close.
Then it asks if I want to send the error report to
Microsoft. Sometimes I do and sometimes I don't but it
doesn't make much difference since the error keeps coming
up and Microsoft doesn't respond (I don't really expect
them to).
After that my computer runs just fine but I don't like
having an unhandled error.

When using windows xp I do not need to specify the domain name when I

Can I prevent this?

- Windows XP >> XP files copying fails during installDuring a routine clean install to a former Windows 98
machine, the following has occurred... Once the hard
disk reformatting process completed, the computer began
to copy files normally from the disk in the CD-Rom
drive. But after a short time, it began to have trouble
copying a few of the files. Several of the balky files
did successfully copy after pressing 'retry' (enter)
repeatedly. However, one of them finally just wouldn't
go. I am getting the message:
"Setup cannot copy the file: ndisuio.sys. To retry,
press Enter (which is unsuccessful). My only other
choices are to skip or to quit. So I'm stuck. What's
wrong and what do I need to do?

- Windows XP Network >> Network Bridge woesHi all,
I'm having problems getting the network bridge option in windows xp to work
correctly.
PC 1: Wireless (static ip 192.168.0.21 255.255.255.0) connects to wireless
router (static 192.168.0.11 - which in turn connects to ADSL router
192.168.0.10). This configuration works fine and I have no problem
connecting to the Internet. This PC also has a wired connection with a
static ip address of 192.167.0.10 mask 255.255.255.0
PC 2: Wired connection only with a static ip of 192.167.0.11 mask
255.255.255.0. The wired network works correctly. I want this pc to be able
to access the Internet using the others' wireless connection, i.e. using PC
1 as a bridge.
I initially had the problem that the wireless connection stopped working
when joined to the bridge but I solved this by manually forcing
compatibility mode. What happens now however is when the bridge is created
it has an ip address of 0.0.0.0 (I have no DHCP) and consequently there is
no connectivity from the bridge. I have manually assigned an IP address to
the bridge and all three connections show as 'connected' in the network
connections. BUT, no matter what IP adress I give the bridge, I receive a
windows system error that there is a duplicate ip address on the network as
soon as I try to use the internet! There are no other machines on the
network so there definitely isnt a conflict and I'm at a loss as to what is
happening here. I have so far tried about a dozen different ip addresses but
always with the same result.
ANy help would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
Steve

- Windows XP Support >> Shutdown always says installing 1 updateThe topic says most of the story, Have a new laptop that exibits the
following behavior:
1) The updates available icon in the taskbar is NOT being displayed
constantly.
2) At shutdown, it always displays the install updates and shut down option,
indicates that it is installing 1 update, and we repeat the process every
time i turn the machine off.
Norton Internet security is what it has on it for A/V and such ... not that
Norton would EVER cause an issue like this one ... LOL!
Thanks in advance for any ideas. I'm not afraid of working in the registry,
but I don't have clue one where to start looking, and blindly poking around
in the registry is not a good strategy

Windows XP >> Missing xp functions
In the process of trying to recover from a failed installation of a new
software program I had to use system restore. It has worked in the past but
this time got hung up. When I rebooted many of the functions, such as Help &
Support and System info. will not run. Some programs also will not run. What
can I do short of aWin reinstall to correct this. If I counld get to System
restore I think i would be ok. Thanks.

Can you get into Safe Mode and try System Restore there? If not, do a
Repair Install. Here's a link to instructions:

- Windows XP Security >> Automation and user rightsIs there any way to configure a particular program to
always run with administrative rights, wihtout the user
needing an administrator password?
One of the users in our network need sadministrative
rights to properly run a particular program. However, we
do not want the user to have admin rights in any other
case...only for the running of this program. We could use
runas...but I can't find anyway to automate runas so the
user doesn't have to enter the password. Anyone have any
ideas?

And now I can not connect to my FTP sites?

I did turn off the firewall that came with SP2.
Any suggestions would be helpful.

- Windows XP Support >> Should I do this deletion??I have XP Home.
I remember a suggestion to go to START/RUN/%TEMP% and then to delete all
files found in there.
I have about 800 files there (almost all .tmp files but some other folders
as well -- ADOBE, VBE, and a couple of others).
Can I safely delete these files??
(Perhaps I should first empty the recycle bin, then delete the files, and I
can then restore them from the recycle bin if there is a problem).
Also, is this a large number of files and is my computer likely to be more
"perky" after such a deletion?

- Windows XP Setup >> rsvpsp.dll - how to reattach?Hi,
I was messing around with lspfix and accidentally removed "rsvpsp.dll
(protocol handler)". My internet connection still works without any
side effects whatsoever, however I would like to restore that entry
nonetheless, unless it turns out that it was there for absolutely no reason.
Can someone tell me what rsvpsp.dll does, and how I can restore it to my
LSP stack. It would be especially good if you could cut and paste the
pertinent reg keys.
Thanks for helping me out

when it will take a crap. It's been working so good,
Thought now would be a great time to do a back-up, deleted
all my temp files, got the USB back-up drive out all ready
to go, Reboot. BOOM big crash, won't boot. Now I have to
do a restore instead of a back-up. You got to love it.

Then I moved about 50 more and a plus sign appeared even

away with reload or overlaying and returning from another
window. Trivial but odd.

- Windows XP Support >> USB Exterior HDD questions?Hi,
Just bought a Coolmax 310 USB Exterior HDD Enclosure. (Probably won't
be shipped unitl next week)
Thinking of installing one of two spare HDD's into the Enclosure.
a: Would the HDD require Windows if I use it exclusively for program
storage and file backups?
b: Without Windows , will I be able to exec a program or simply
transfer it from exterior to interior drive? And if so, won't that mess
up the registry? I'm so confuuuuuused!
c: If the HDD has ONLY Windows XP loaded, I'd like it to be an
emergency replacement HDD, (in case the interior drive goes south), in
the meanwhile using the remainder of the space for storage and
backups. That I believe (hope?) would be OK?
ThanX and truest wishes for a great Thanksgiving Holiday!

- Windows XP Security >> Tough question - get your thinking caps onI need to remotely edit the HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft key, in order to
add the Security subkey and the CheckAdminSettings dword value required for
use with Outlook Security Templates.
Unfortunately, this is a "restricted" key, and only the Administrators have
full access. I've tried using SMS Installer to create the entry
progammatically, and have also tried using "regini.exe" from the Resource Kit
to change the ACL on the key prior to performing the edit. The result is
that, apparently due to the need to run with administrator permissions, the
current user key is bypassed and the entry is made in the Default User
context.
Does anyone have a reliable method for getting around this behavior? The
machines targeted are not necessarily single-user machines, so it's not as
simple as just making the users administrators on a temporary basis. I would
also like to avoid having to use multiple reboots to change the ACL on the
key, make the edit, and then restore the ACL on the key.
Thanks for your assistance!
