- Windows XP Security >> Not recognizing I am administratorA new problem (2 weeks old). First it occurred with Shockwave and now with
Rhapsody. My user login is an administrator (me) on my home computer. When
I have downloaded and went to install new programs or updates to old programs
I get the error message that says I need to be administator in order to have
access to the computer system. I just created a new user (thinking maybe
some how my user login got corrupted) and set it up as administrator - and -
I went back to the website downloaded the update and when it went to install
I got the same error message.
How can I fix the corruption/error? In advance ---- thanks for your help
and time.

- Windows XP MovieMaker >> Timeline...Maybe I'm doing something wrong.....
If I add a clip in the middle of a movie, all the clips to the right of it
move to the right to make room. However, the text in the separate timeline
does not move with it. I have to go back and allign all of the text.
Is there a way to move everything in sync?

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> In Windows XP MS-DOS does not recognize batch file greater than 8 charactersIf a batch file is more than eight characters it is not
recognized by MS-DOS, it only recognizes the Batch files
which are maximum eight characters or less. When I try to
run this batch file having name greater than right
character it says "file not found", whereas if I try to
print it manually by using the command "type FILENAME >
LPT1" it prints properly. I am not facing this problem in
Windows 98, this problem is only there with XP.

- Windows XP Setup >> Start Menu entries for 2 different accountsHi!
I have Win XPPro and I'm sharing my PC with my son. I
created 2 accts with both admin rights so he could
install his programs. I've noticed that whenever I
deleted a prog entry in the Start Menu, his menu also
changed (entry deleted) and viceversa. I understand that
XP allows you to setup accts which should behave
independtly one from the other. What can I do to avoid
this behaviour? I tried by changing his acct to
a "Limited" actt but it did not work. Please advice.
Thanks!

- Windows XP Network >> NT Authority prompts shutdownMy bro's notebook has this problem: Everytime he connects
to the Internet, he gets a dialog box by "NT
Authority/System" prompting him to shut down.
The reason given is that "the Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
service terminated unexpectedly".
He can't update online since he always gets bootted when
online.
Thanks in advance!
BTW: Windows XP Pro came with his notebook.

- Windows XP Setup >> Unattended XP installAt our school, we're trying to implement unattended installs of xp.
We've had no problem creating the install shares and the unattended text
files.
But on our test computer we are experiencing problems.
The test computer is a fairly new ibm with 512 mb and a 40 gb hard drive.
We're using the network boot disk from http://www.netbootdisk.com/.
If we format the 40 gb drive with fat32 or ntfs, the install hangs. The
install gives the message that it can't find a large enough partition to
begin.
However, if we use fat32 to partition only 32 of the 40 gb of the drive (I
read to do this on the Microsoft Support site), installation starts fine.
Can anyone tell me how we can start installation using the full 40gb?
Thanks,

Windows XP Hardware >> Microsoft Keyboard F Lock Default
Hey, Does anyone know how to change the default F Lock
Function of a MS Wireless MultiMedia Keyboard (1.0A) from
off to on? This simple key is very annoying to use, as
the function keys are unable to be accessed without first
turning that on.

- Windows XP >> Vista's mklink for XP?As some of you may know, NTFS reparse points have all that is needed to
implement file symlinks on Windows XP:
http://wesnerm.blogs.com/net_undocumented/2006/10/symbolic_links__1.html
As you can see in that blog entry, there is utility called "fsutil":
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/fsutil.mspx?mfr=true
that explotis that.
However, I was wondering if there is any "simpler" utility besides fsutil to
do that?
Here's why I ask, in case you have something to suggest:
I work (among other things) in an open source project. We use svn and most
developers are linuxers.
I was assigned the task of porting the build system to CMake. While on that
I couldn't help but to try fixing some longstanding issues.
One of the most annoying ones is this: the svn tree structure is different
from the build tree structure (a bash script is run to create the build-tree
out of the svn-tree).
The only "real" fix here is to unify the svn and build structures, but this
is so far from trivial (for a number of reasons) that is just impractical
for the time being.
However, along the discussion an interesting "hack" came about: create the
build-tree as a "shallow" rearrangement of the files in the svn-tree via
symlinks. This is trivial in posix... it is also equally trivial in Vista
thanks to mklink, but is not in XP and we need to support all three
platforms (being a platform indepenent open source project).
I posposed to use hardlinks, but that makes things complicated as I need to
make sure the "link" in the shallow folder doesn't outlive the "original"
file in the svn folder (otherwise it will silently go out of sync). Some svn
operations (revert, rename, etc) in the working folder could break the hard
link silently leaving an outdated source in the shallow build tree.
I know XP developers could have "fsutil" installed, and use it to generate
the shallow build tree with real symlinks, but I don't see how that can be
integrated into a transparent and platform-independent build enviroment
(which is the goal).
TIA

- Windows XP Hardware >> Fine working CDRoms in device manager shown in the unknow group instead of CDROM-groupHello,
I installed a week ago a new dvd-burner after putting out my 4x4
cd-burner(HP). All was fine. 2 days later i checked in the device manager
and noticed the DVD-Rom (Pioneer 106s) and the DVD-burner (NEC 1300) are
showing up as unknown devices. Properties says they are Class: unknown and
Factory: general cdrom stations, Status: working correct. Ok they work well
but this is annoying me. So i looked into the registry and found nothing
obvious that could change this.I did find the HP 4x4 burner still in the
registry (that was gone now, and that did have still Class CDROM, but the
Pioneer and NEC hadd Class *empty* . So i am pretty sure something went
wrong when i first booted up with the NEC and without the HP Of course i
tried to uninstall the drives (duh) but they come up again in unknown
devices. Last resource was windows recovery but the date was too long ago
now, so it was not an option. Using Windows XP. Have been searching for
hours on Google, nothing. Only thing i did try in the registry was delete
all HP references, no succes.
Ok, so the question is, which entries in the registry or inf files do i
change/remove for a reset?
TIA

- Windows XP Support >> Ieee1394 networking + activation statusYesterday I connected my newly acquired notebook with my desktop PC, using
Firewire cable. But after I did this, my desktop PC (with Box Windows XP)
informed me I had to re-activate Windows due to "extensive changes in the PC
configuration". But I haven't done any changes -- all I did was changing IP
address three times for my firewire connection. Can this affect activation
status? Will my PC make me re-activate Windows again, if I use the firewire
port for my Camcorder and then re-connect my notebook?
Thanks in advance for any advice.

- Windows XP Support >> Problem Viewing Compact Flash Card Contents On WinXPIt used to be that, when I'd put the compact flash card from my
digital camera into my card reader, Windows XP (all security updates
installed) would pop-up with a box that said, "Windows can perform the
same action each time you insert a disk or connect a device with this
kind of file: Pictures
What would you like to do?
Below is a box that used to show the different programs I could use to
open the files or the options to use Windows Explorer to view the
files on the disk.
Now that box is blank; nothing shows up in it. I can't figure out
why, either. Has anyone had this happen before? If so, how did you
fix it?
Thank you.

- Windows XP >> Dual boot convert to ntfsThere is 4 computers (workstations) at the shop that are dual boot I suppose
because of buying upgrade versions of XP Pro. The other OS is 98 which I know
will not run on ntfs. So the question is if I use command prompt safe mode to
convert to ntfs what will happen to the 98 Os and programs installed on it.
Will it be deleated or be unknown amount of corrupt data taking up space on
hard drive. Or is there a way to delete 98 before converting to ntfs.
Thanks

- customize >> Can I get rid of automatic update programs?Lately every piece of software I install seems to add a
program that is launched automatically when I create a
dial-up connection. They all check for updates to their
product and tell me about it. I want to get rid of these.
They slow down my computer, pop up windows, and use up my
limited dial-up network bandwidth.
Does anyone know how they gain control when a dial-up
connection is created? Is there a registry key concerning
this?

- Windows XP Support >> Hard Disk used space ?I have a 200 gig slave hard drive. I recently deleted 60 gig of files. The
total of all files on the disk now = 40 gig. However, the properties for this
drive show 100 gig used. I have defraged and error checked the disk with no
change in the discrepancy. Is there anything I can do to correct this without
reformatting the disk?

I have a PC with one network card (LAN) and a wireless card.
I would like to route some HTTP traffic arriving from the LAN card to

Do I need some sort of routing or proxy software to achieve this?
