Legacy Operating Systems

I figured there would be a lot of posts on this subject, but after using the forum search multiple times have found nothing similar. Hope you can help me. A friend thought he was doing me a favor and installed IE8 Beta2 as a surprise. Previously I had IE7. I've got XP Home, SP3. The new installation of IE8 has caused more problems than I can fix fast enough (script errors, add-ons, incompatible searches, unrecongnized commands, etc etc) It's horrible, or rather to be fair it's incompatible with my computer at this time, and instead of reconfiguring every setting I can find to make it work, I want it gone. But how do you uninstall it? it's not in Add/Remo…

I really need some help with this. My AVG Antivirus found this "Trojan Horse Dropper.Agent.JOC." It was located in C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Engine\6\Intel 32 Is there away to find out information about this? If it is a virus? I have done some research on the internet and have read several articles. I am not for certain if its a "false positive" and restore it OR if I should delete it from the Vault? Really Appreciate your help.

(XP Home, fairly new system) Sometimes-about 1 in 7 boot-ups or reboots- the windows splash screen starts out very faded, and remains very faded for a long time (much longer than the duration of splash in a normal boot). Only then does the splash reach normal brightness and then everything proceeds ok. Otherwise the comp works well. I am worried that this is a hardware problem that could get worse. Any suggestions?

Since installing Service Pack-3, I'm having trouble with Google, (as well as other search engines). When I search for something using Google, it returns some obscure, but remotely related sites. If I then click on "Preferences" then "save Preferences" (without making any changes), it returns to Google and things are working correctly. Similarly, if I try to use "Advanced Search", all I get is a blank screen, unless I do the "Preferences" thing again. All this seems to have occurred since I installed SP-3 in to Windows XP pro. Did something get set wrong during the installation? I've gone through all the "Internet Options" in IE-6, and everything look…

A couple of weeks ago I post a message about my Vista 64 Bit OS starting to not respond to any commands and having to force a reboot on a regular basis ending in a format/reinstallation. Someone suggested driver issues or imcompatable software. I have ended up going back to XP 64 Bit and after a few days all sorts of things started happenning, but the main thing was BSOD Stop c000021a fatal system error. Other issues started to rear it's ugly face RCP, SERVICES.EXE with shut down in 30 secs or so. Tried to do a last known configuration then recieved a BSOD 0x0000050 Win32k.sys and also a 0xc0000005 BSOD. I have had the motherboard replaced incase that…

Hi, I am having a very odd problem with FTP. Basically, it won't work. The FTP client seems to connect but then issues an error and no files appear on the remote server. The last time I needed to use FTP was in February of this year, and it worked fine. Now, when I try it, it goes nowhere. I have tried several different FTP clients and accounts, all with the same outcome. It is not a firewall problem; I run only Win XP Pro firewall and have tried it with that disabled + anything else that even MIGHT effect connections. I have tried it in Safe Mode with no success which makes me think it is not a conflict with another app - though I don't believe I have …

What program or DLL is used to compress files in XP? I know compact is for the file system, but what is used when you want to make a zip and do not have a 3rd part add-on such as winzip. I have been searching, but have not found an answer.

I have set up a Windows 2003 Terminal Server that part of a domain. When I try to login I get the message... "To log on to this remote computer, you must have Terminal Server User Access permissions on this computer. By default, members of the Remote Desktop User group have these permissions. If you are not a member of the Remote Desktop Users group or another group that has these permissions, or if the Remote Desktop User group does not have these permissions, you must be granted these permissions manually." I have verified that my domain login is part of the Remote Desktop User group. I even loosened the security to include "domain users" and the…

Hi! I would just like to ask if there is a directory in Windows Xp SP2 where in print screens are automatically saved, or I still have to open an image viewing/editing software to save it manually?

I had a very old computer running windows Me (yes, you heard right) and never had a single problem with it in 9 years, including with AOL. I loaded XP on it and everything works fine, except I can't install AOL now (which worked fine before). One of two things usually happens: After I upload AOL from an installation disk, I get a message saying "AOL will now install files you need to run AOL. You will need to restart to use AOL". I click yes, reboot, and instead of AOL loading I get the same message over and over again in an endless loop, like it keeps trying to finish installing but won't. The second is, on a few occasions I actually got he AOL sc…

Ok, I am lost. I am fairly good with computers but I am stumped. My computer crashed recently-hard drive wiped out, paid a repair man to fix but even he couldn't fix my sound problem. I finally got it to work but it was really bad sound so I decided to upgrade my speakers, big mistake. Now I have NO sound. At first it was garbled and I tried some trouble shooting tips and now there is nothing. Can someone please link me to 1. Drivers i should have already on my computer - Windows XP 2. I also have Sound Blaster Live 24 - downloaded but help me make sure it's set as default. 3. Help me make sure all my programs under Sounds, games and video's and ot…

I have a virus. My desktop is white with "Active Desktop Recovery" which when I hit "Restore my Active Desktop" I get the message "an error occured in the script". Plus my start menu is gone. When I hit start, the right side is blank plus "programs" is gone. I ran Ad-Aware and AVG and this cleaned up a lot of the pop ups but with my desktop icons gone and unable to go through "programs", I am unable to access needed programs. Any help in getting me back to normal will be appreciated. I can see them on my Start menu anymore. PLus there is this Desktop pic of "Buy Privacy Protection Service now" with the Url Link with it. When i tried to right …

I restored my boot partition from a Ghost image, and when booting, the computer gets past the first XP screen, then hangs at the welcome screen. I see the mouse and the welcome screen, but no login choices. This is the first time I've tried this, and the restoration itself seemed to go smoothly. I was sure to check the box to set the partition active. BTW, this is a Gateway laptop w/ Turion, 1Gb ram, 120gb HD with XP Media Center. I'm trying to avoid doing a full reinstall. That's why I made the ghost image. In case I need to, though, I no longer have the disks that came with the computer, but the XP sticker is still on the bottom. Will that seri…
