- Windows XP Setup >> XP Home over W98- please helpI have been trying to install XP Home on my older desktop
for some time;
Finally I totally re-formated the HD's and started clean.
It doesn't have many periferals - all the printers, etc.
run on a home network from another machine.
First, installed the orignal W98 which apparently runs
very well. Didnt add much in way of programs - actually
nothing on the first attempt.
When I go through the XP installation (upgrade) it goes
on and on and then suddenly stops with the message -
"Setup has discovered that drive C: is corrupted and
cannot be repaired. Setup cannot continue". This is about
1 minute from the end.
I have run Scandisk, etc. Can any one suggest next step?
the machine has 390 or so MB memory; the drives are 10 GB
and 40 GB respectively. Machine ran very well in W2K. But
installing the Sp's always killed it. Any suggestion
would be greatly appreciated.

- Windows XP Hardware >> problemsi'm using xp home. recently i tried to install a gamepad
but it doesn't work. so in the end i uninstall it.
unfortunately, now everytime i start my computer, a
window pop ups saying it has found a new hardware and
suggests that i install the hardware. this is very

- Windows XP >> WTFOWhat the F___ is goin g on with this )(%_)@%(&*_%() Win XP.
I'm really ready to reload my ME and go back to a stable
operating system.
I've had problems constantly in the past 30 days since I've
bought this *%&@%&* XP upgrade.
I load the online updates, and I keep getting these
messages that there are windows files that are not
authorized. So I have to constantly keep the XP upgrade
disk in the CD tray. Two weeks ago I uploaded the %*)&#%(*
nupdates, and it froze before XP completely loaded.
Today I thought they'd fixed any bugs, and was doing OK
until I started getting these dialog boxes that there were
files that weren't XP compatable files. Now I figure that
the new new update files weren't known by the files
checking on the disk. But the stupid butt heads didn't
allow a way to tell the old files that these updates were
compatable? WTFO?
I'm serious. I'm thinking about reloeding my ME and trying
to get my money back... This XP sucks.
And where in HELL can I get a straight answer of what
hardware is compatable? I've looked everywhere. Can't get a
straight answer anywhere. I have a PII 160 MB RAM system.
I've been told I need a Min of a PIII and 256 MB RAM. Where
does it say that?
Fix this PIG,
It ain't working for me,

- Windows XP >> coolWWW removalDoes anyone know how to get this off my system and keep

- Windows XP Security >> Fatal System ErrorI use XP pro, and I was trying to block access to the C:\
drive to all users but myself. Once I had done this, and
logged off, I could not log on again. When I tried to
restart, there was a screen that read "autochk program not
found - skipping AUTOCHECK" which then bounced to a blue
screen that read: STOP: c000021a {Fatal System Error} The
session Manager Initialization system process terminated
unexpectedly with a status of 0xc0000022 (0x00000000
0x00000000). Then, the system shuts down, and the same
thing occurs everytime I attemp to bootup again. This
seems like a pretty serious problem, any help is much
appreciated. Thanks.

- Windows XP Perform Maintain >> CTRL +ALT + DELI have a process running called IvhIdsvc.exe which is
using 100% of the CPU. If I stop this process my machine
runs ok, but with it on my machine is so slow. Tried to
find this file but its not visable on my HDD. Also the
net has not yielded any results. Can anyone help.

- Windows XP >> Why Is This Happening?I have recently upgraded to Windows XP Home Edition.
From time to time a window pops up that tells me that it
is trying to install Office 2000. The bar shows that
something is being loaded for a few moments, then another
window opens that tells me that the feature that I am
trying to use is not available, please insert your Office
2000 disk into the drive.
This appears to happen randomly and at times that I am
not aware that I am trying to use an Office 2000
feature. For example, this last occured when I
attempeted to search for a file using the search
feature. I have had Office 2000 installed for several
years and never had this happen when I was using Windows
98SE.
So far this appears to only be an annoyance, but I would
like to know what is going on.

- Windows XP >> How can I change boot drive to C?Hi. While trying to assist my niece to install WinXP over the phone a
few weeks ago, something got crossed or misinterpreted and I found out
recently that she installed XP to her H drive instead of her C drive.
Her H drive is now nearly full and the much larger C drive is almost
empty. Short of reinstalling her system more carefully, is there a way
to easily change her system drive to C, along with her profiles, etc?
Thanks in advance.

- Windows XP Support >> CHKDSK incorrectly identifies and deletes in-use security descriptI was troubleshooting Speed Disk (Norton Utilities defragmenter) to determine
why it would not run on the scheduler.
Here is the event log entry:

And so I ran chkdsk first and Speed Disk started OK. It looks like I have to
run chkdsk /F prior to every time I want to run Speed Disk. Not being very
happy with that arrangement I decided to look into what chkdsk was finding
and fixing. I found some chkdsk associated errors in the event log. Here is
one example of what it found and fixed:

--end of event logâ??
Associated with my past running of chkdsk there are other similar errors for
both hard drives in the event logs. Some common data to all errors is:
Cleaning up 6 unused index entries from index $SII of file 0x9.
Cleaning up 6 unused index entries from index $SDH of file 0x9.
Cleaning up 6 unused security descriptors.
Cleaning up minor inconsistencies on the drive.
Cleaning up 21 unused index entries from index $SII of file 0x9.
Cleaning up 21 unused index entries from index $SDH of file 0x9.
Cleaning up 21 unused security descriptors.
I did a Google on â??index $SII of file 0x9â?? and found this KB:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/831374/ The CHKDSK utility incorrectly
identifies and deletes in-use security descriptors
WHOA! So running chkdsk is a more serious problem than not being able to
defrag. But I have to run chkdsk to fix the errors so the defrag program
Speed Disk will run on the scheduler.
KB831374 says to fix the problem obtain the latest service pack. Here is
the Windows version and service pack info for this PC:

- Windows XP >> Map a USB Drive Letter?Greetings,
I'm using XP at work and have an external hard drive connected through a USB
port. When I first attached it, the drive was designated "E:" and all went
well.
I don't leave it running constantly, and generally turn it off overnight,
though it does remain connected to that same USB port 24/7.
This morning I had to add some files to my computer using a different
external drive through a different USB port. The original external drive was
shut off at the time.
I connected the 2nd drive and the system assigned it the "E:" letter. This
wasn't a big deal, as I simply meant to swap some files and be done. I did
have to turn External #1 on to access some of the files, and it was assigned
as drive "F:" which, again, was no biggie.
Well, now my 1st drive is ALWAYS the "F:" drive. It's a problem for day to
day operation as I have a LOT of shortcuts pointing to it as the "E:" drive.
I figured maybe it was always F: because the other one had been turned on
first.. so I turned just the 1st drive on.. and it's F:... then I tried
turning them both on.. the 1st external drive is still F: and the 2nd one is
E:... I tried re-booting and a few other things I don't remember (though
some of them involved cussing) and nothing works.
I didn't try renaming the volumes as they are descriptive and the 2nd drive
is used on other computers at times, and I'd really rather leave volume
names alone. My system originally saw the 1st as "E:"... it set up the 2nd
as "E:" all by itself without my permission.. so I know the capability is
there for it to set the 1st drive BACK to "E:"...
I looked at trying to map it.. but that only seems to work for network
drives not USB-connected drive.... so.. how does one 'map' a 'local'
drive or restore a drive's original letter???
Thanks
Shane

Go to control panel, printers and faxes and see if the nonexistent
printer is there. If so, right-click on it and hit delete.

I tried looking in the control panel as well as the startup list and i
cannot find it. The printer is not listed on my printer and faxes thing. It
still tries to load. I found an article on microsoft about an installer fixer
but the link is dead. Any other suggestions?

Use Autoruns to find any unwanted start ups!
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/ProcessesAndThreads/Autoruns.mspx
You should only use to remove left over entries after you have
uninstalled the hardware.

Hope this helps.

positive response then query all configured DNS servers. Is there a way to
adjust these timeout settings?

- Windows XP Security >> shared folderOn an XP Pro machine I set up a folder and shared it to
other machines on the network - mostly win98. On machines
that needed the data, I set up drive mappings to the

A few days later, the mappings are OK and the files
visible, but all the other machines are getting read only
access to the data. On the XP machine sub directory
properties show a gray read only check box. Clearing the
grayed check appeats to work, but does not.
Also I do not find a seperate Security tab on the file or

- Windows XP Support >> USB-SCANNER REAGIERT NICHT MEHR :-((GROßE PROBLEME mit CanoScan LiDE 20
SIE SIND MEINE LETZTE HOFFNUNG !!!!
Seit 14 Tagen habe ich die Fehlermeldung: "Scangear CS: KEINE
RÜCKMELDUNG vom Scanner. Überprüfen Sie die Verbindung" -
Ich suche nun schon seit 2 Wochen verzweifelt nach einer Lösung in den
Foren und Informationsportalen - erfolglos !!!!
Nach dem 1. Anschluß im Februar 2005 funktionierte der Scanner auf
meinem neuen PC noch ohne Probleme - aber vor 14 Tagen nach dem
Einschalten des PC kam es beim Scannversuch zum 1. Mal zur o.g.
Fehlermeldung. Seitdem konnte ich das Problem nicht mehr lösen.
FOLGENDE MAßNAHMEN habe ich bisher probiert:
Der Scanner wird ohne Fehler im Gerätemanager angezeigt. Mein System ist
"WinXPpro SP1", AMD XP 3000 MHz, Motherboard ASROCK K7S8XE mit Chipsatz
SIS K7S8X. Ich habe installiert die Firewall "Sygate". und en
Antivirusscanner "NOD32". Es gibt KEINE Ausrufezeichen im Gerätemanager.
a) Ich habe beim Chipsatzhersteller die neusten Chipsatztreiber
installiert und ein aktuelles Motherboard Bios aufgespielt.
b) Ich habe bestimmt schon 15 mal die Gerätetreiber "SCANGEAR , die
Canon-Toolbox und die USB-Treiber über den Gerätemanager und auch über
die CANON-Original-CD deinstalliert und nach PC-Neustart OHNE
angeschlossenen Scanner neu installiert. Der Scanner wird dann nach dem
Anschließen immer wieder automatisch erkannt und fehlerfrei installiert.
C) Auch die Verwendung des CANON-Deinstallationstools änderte daran
nichts. Im Gerätemanager, steht, beim USB-Port, das der Scanner mit 500
mA versorgt wird.
d) Auch die Deaktivierung dea USB2.0-Unterstützung im Bios änderte nichts.
Laut SIS-Homepage wird die USB-2.0-Unterstützungstreiber schon von
Microsoft durch das SP1 angeboten bzw. mitinstalliert. Die erneute
Installation des SP1 änderte den Zustand auch nicht.
e) EIN TEST an meinem NOTEBOOK mit Win200 SP4 ergab, das nach der
Installation der Treiber der Scanner EINWANDFREI erkannt wird und über
eine beliebige Fotosoftware gescannt werden kann. Überhaupt kein Problem
!!! Also ist der Scanner und das Kabel i.O..
==> Auf meinem PC habe ich 3 Systeme parallel installiert Windows98,
Win2000 mit SP4 und WinXP pro mit SP1. Auf allen 3 Betriebssystemenn
wird der Scanner einwandfrei erkannt und installiert. Beim Starten und
Abklemmen und Neu-Anklemmen des Kabels ruckt der Scanner ganz kurz und
die Scannerlampe schaltet sich ein und geht wieder aus. ABER wenn ich
dann über ein beliebiges Programm oder über eine Scanner-Test-Software
einen Test durchführen will, dann passiert gar nichts und es kommt zur
FEHLERmeldung " Der Scanner reagirt nicht, bzw. keine Rückmeldung vom
Scanner"
f) der START der Canon Toolbox 4.1.3.1 dauert verdächtig lange (ca. 15
sekunden) - startet dann aber erstmal ohne Fehler. Wenn ich dann über
einen beliebigen Punkt etwas scannen möchte, dann muß ich wieder ca. 30
sekunden warten - (es erscheint die Windows-Eieruhr) und dann kommt
wieder die Fehlermeldung "KEINE RÜCKMELDUNG vom Scann, möglicherweise
sind die Kabel getrennt" UND DANN noch die 2. MELDUNG !! ?=>
"TWAIN-QUELLE kann nicht geöffnet werden - Überprüfen Sie die Verbindunf
und starten Toolbox neu".
G) der nächste Versuch war - alle anderen Geräte von den
USB-Anschlüssen abzuklemmen (z.Bsp. mein USB-Drucker "Canon S600",
welcher an jedem meiner 6 USB _Anschlüsse problemlos funktioniert und
nur den USB-Scanner allein zu betreiben --- LEIDER AUCH ohne Erfolg
H) zum Schluß habe ich dann Windows XP nocheinmal über das bestehende
System drüberinstalliert und das Scanner -Kabel an alle USB-Anschlüssen
(4 hinten und 2 vorn) getestet - überall das gleiche Problem.
FAZIT : ICh weiß nicht mehr weiter - ich habe keine Erklärung dafür,
warum der Scanner an meinem langsameren NOTEBOOK mit Win2000
funktioniert und an meinem PC auf einmal nicht mehr ????
Können Sie mir bitte HELFEN ... WAS kann ich jetzt noch tun ? GIBT es
ein DIAGNOSETOOL, was mir weiter hilft? Könnte es ein Spannungsproblem
sein oder ein SOFTWARE-Problem ???

- Windows XP >> Sony Vaio PCG-GRT170 Driver HelpHello everyone,
I recently purchased a Sony Vaio PCG-GRT170. It came installed with
Windows XP Home. I wiped the hard drive and did a clean install of
Windows XP Pro. There are several drivers that are unavailable and
that I can't seem find anywhere on the internet. Mainly the video and
sound drivers. Does anyone have the original drivers from the
\windows\drivers folder on the same machine that they could send to
me?
Thanks,
Lance

- Windows XP Hardware >> Windows XP DVD+RW SupportI'm not sure if the issue that follows is a function of Nero having been
installed or not. Well, let me explain this perplexing issue and get some
direction.
The OS does not recognize a DVD+RW with regards to writing. I can view the
contents of any DVD or CD but the OS thinks a DVD+RW is CD+RW and abandons
the "format", "write to", etc commands immediately. I cannot write to a
brand new DVD+RW, DVD+R, etc. but can read any media in the Sony DVD drive.
I honestly can't recall if this issue was present before I installed Nero
but to reduce the variables, I uninstalled Nero to see what would happen. No
change was observed. I now have no ability to write to a DVD unless I
reinstall Nero. I would rather use the OS' native abilities to manage
DVD+RWs.
Note that the Sony drive has the latest drivers, Device Manager is "happy"
with the hardware, etc.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

- Windows XP Setup >> Slow responsiveness after SP2Several of the computers are slow to respond after SP2 updates.
Specifically, when I click Start, I get the bottom half of the list (Run -
Programs) right away but it takes 20 seconds for the top half to show up. If
I don't wait for the top half to show up and click or hold the mouse over
programs, it takes 20 seconds for the secondary list to show up.
This is happening on about 10 of 90 computers after updating to SP2, If I do
a complete reload from a formatted drive and do SP2 before any applications
are loaded the problem goes away, but that is way time consuming.
Also slow to browse the network.
Any help with where to look?
