I just recently installed Windows XP Home Edition on my new computer, using the same disk as I used on the old comp. Trouble is, for some reason Windows firewall doesn't show up under Control Panel on the new comp. I switched to classic view AND tried searching for the file, hidden folders and all. Still nothing. For some reason Windows Firewall is nonexistant on my new rig. Any ideas?

I've been looking for the answer to this from a Google search and can't find the answer. The IE7 icon is *not* on my desktop, which is good. It's in my Quick Launch toolbar where I want it. However it *is* in my Desktop Toolbar. Everytime I delete it, it comes back mysteriously after 5-10 minutes. Scott

Hi, I recently purchased a Nintendo Wi-Fi adapter for my PC and now whenever a system links to it a bubble shows up on my desktop telling me. Because the Nintendo Wii has a 24 hour connect, this message will sometimes pop up repeatedly for brief periods of time. Is there any way I can disable this bubble from popping up?

I have RC installed as a BOOT.INI option. If I boot RC and try to copy a file from C:\ to a floppy disk it says ACCESS DENIED. Is that how it is supposed to be or is there something I'm not doing right? If it is that way by design, can anybody explain to me why it's that way ? TIA

Computer switches on automatically
by Guest Pete- 7 replies
- 108 views
For the last few weeks, I switch the computer off in the evening but I frequently find its on in the morning. Does not always happen but most days. On looking at the duration time on my local area connection this shows most of the night so the computer switches back on shortly after I turn it off. I don't think this has anything to do with Power settings on the machine (its set to turn the monitor off after 30 minutes, Hard Disk Off and System Standby are set to Never). Any idea what may be casuing this? This is a dual boot machine with Vista which I very rarely use. May be something in Vista is causing the auto startup?

My desktop search has stopped indexing email in Outlook about a week ago. At the same time Business Contact Manager was not accessible. I'm running Office 2007 and Windows XP. I uninstalled Desktop Search and tried to reinstalled. The install failed and gave me a lengthy log file that is not clear on why the install did not occur. Now in Outlook, when i try to search I get the index is not complete, which is the same problem I have prior to uninstalling it. How do I clear out Desktop Search, so that I can get a clean install and index? -- Jason
