default settings for new users / new accounts ?
by Guest ProteanThread- 1 reply
- 149 views
How can add, delete, change, or edit settings for default user or new accounts *PRIOR* to the person logging in? Everytime I create a new non-admin user account, I have certain applications attempt to run (even though they are NOT in HKLM/Run or Start>Startup for all users but wind up in the current users settings), somehow these apps are running in the current users settings and not per user (does this make sense)? These are apps that I only want those with administrator privlages to run and not anyone else! -- Woodzy http://www.rtdos.com

USB to Serial-ATA Driver
by Guest Don- 0 replies

I have a large (1TB) SATA drive that I've installed in an ICY Dock external enclosure with a USB connection. The device is recognized and installed in my XPSP3 system under VMWARE but NOT in my workaday system. The New Found Harware wizard just grinds away searching for a driver but to no avail. Since this wasn't a problem under the virtual system I have no idea how to proceed. Any helpful ideas? Thanks in advance. Don

- 220 views
I tried IE8 and have nothing but problems. When I try to uninstall it, it automatically restarts. Right now, it is active but does not appear in the ADD/REMOVE programs list. I try to install IE7 and it will not install because IE8 is there. How do I manually remove IE8 so I can reinstall 7. I could not reach the newsgroups or discussions because IE 8 blocks them, I am using Firefox. Thank You

I have checked the MS site and it performs the usual inspection of my Win XP for updates, then shows that I should download SP3 and indicates that I cannot get any more updates until SP3 is installed. Is this correct please? I am not too enthusiastic about installing SP3 in case it gives my desktop indigestion, although I have a MS CD of SP3 standing by! Advice would be helpful please. brett

XP CD key question
by Guest Etienne C.- 7 replies
- 279 views
One of my relatives has a laptop with an XP MCE2005 Key. Long story short, he installed crap that made it BSOD concistently so I decided to recover. Recovery procedure worked but system wasn't stable at all. I got an MSDN subscription at work so I reinstalled with a CD from it, hopping to use his key. It didn't work (invalid key) so I figured its not the same flavor of XP MCE2005 (oem vs retail?). Anyways I used my MSDN key to see if the system would be stable. It is. So finally, my question is: Is there any hope that I can change the installed key (from my office MSDN subscription) with my relative's own legitimate key? By the way, I tried explain…

XP Screen Fonts Fuzzy

I have a new Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop with a fresh XP SP3 install, and I'm having a terrible problem with fuzzy screen fonts on the laptop LCD. I have read through all the discussion postings and tried everything: - Enabling ClearType and tuning it both with the power toy and web interface. Turns out having ClearType disabled looks better but still not great. - Using the Advanced tab of My Computer Properties and trying both checked and unchecked "Smooth Edges of Screen Fonts". Again, unchecked looks better but not great. - Trying both on and off for ClearType in IE7 and Office 2007 - again, off seems to look better. - Making sure I am ru…
