Strange networking problem
by Guest RichT- 1 reply
- 159 views
Hello, I have three PCs on my network (let's call them A, B, and C). A can read and change shared folders on C, and B can read and change shared folders on C, but A and B cannot see each other's shared folders. All have very similar setups (XP, with Onecare firewall), and I have rerun the network setup wizard on all three computers. Is there something else that I could try?

Running XP Pro with SP3 I can log into my Administrator account okay but when I log into my main account name (profile), it seems to be corrupt because it won't save my settings. I've done some reading on this but it seems complicated. I'm worried about copying profiles back n forth. What can I do? Thanks in advance.

I have a Dell Desktop that I have re intalled XP on. The IDT High Definition Audio CODEC is not working properly and it is saying Error code 10.

I don't know what other drivers to download or how else to configure my computer. :confused:

XP crashes on startup
by Guest Zeether- 1 reply
- 173 views
Sometimes, when I start up Windows XP, the taskbar changes to the classic Windows 98 style one and then Windows XP crashes. When I restart it says that winlogon.exe encountered an error. I looked up this and found out that I had to run sfc/scannow with the XP disc to make sure no files were modified. This worked but it seems to be a temporary fix because the problem has been happening again. I already found and deleted a duplicate of winlogon so I know there are no dupes involved. Can anyone help me?

Plug and Play Driver Not Found for External Drive
by Guest Jim Pemberton- 1 reply

I have a Western Digital MyBook. It functioned before a repair installation of Windows XP and functions in other computers. However, when I try to connect it to the USB now after the repair installation, the Plug and Play hardware installation cannot find the generic driver for the drive and it fails to install. There is no driver provided by Western Digital. The tech there sid they use the generic driver provided by Windows. I tried manually identifying the driver in the New Hardware Wizard, , but no drivers were listed. I've tried this to no avail: http://www.uwe-sieber.de/usbtrouble_e.html#xp_asks_for_drivers I've also reinstalled the USB root con…

Anti Virus Software 1 2
by Guest JoeP- 28 replies
- 844 views
Hi all, I am looking for a very effective anti virus software. The price of the software for me is not an issue. I would like the software to be pretty automated but I am an experienced user so if the interface is not the most friendly but it gets the job done the best then that is ok with me. Something that scans windows very deeply and thoroughly and that can actualy remove what ever it finds is what I'm looking for. I currently have McAfee Enterprise edition and I just want to make sure that it did not miss anything. Any response is greatly appreciated. Regards, Joe

message boxes too small
by Guest BirdSong- 1 reply
- 147 views
I had my hard drive re-fomatted. Now all my message boxes are too small to show all the contents. These are not internet windows, but information windows like: "Do you want to save the contents of this document before closing?" Placing a mouse pointer on the corner to drag it larger has no effect. Often the last part of the message is hidden with no way to read it.

There are a number of programs listed in the Add or Remove Programs menu in Control Panel that don't have a Change or Remove button. Probably more than half of the listed programs are missing the button(s). These are all active programs, and many do not have a remove option in the Start/All Programs either. One that I want to remove right now is the Apple Safari browser for Windows. I have Googled for help with this, and the only thing I have seen is to uninstall it in Add or Remove Programs, which is exactly what I can't do. How can I delete these programs and/or get the Remove button back in Add or Remove Programs? Using Windows XP Pro SP3.

Windows XP SP3 My computer was going extremely slow and begining to become un useable. I read some of the replies to similar problems so I uninstalled the Norton Security, downloaded AVG anti-virus and anti spyware from Windows. I turned the computer off then on again the next day and it worked with no problems for an hour then the extreme slowness returned. What else can be causing it?

Help! Have been digging deep into wife's computer and am stumped. She is running Windows XP on a Toshiba Satellite. She unfortunately got stuck with Vista Virus 2008 (i think that's what it was) It kept popping up windows and blocking all attempts to remove. I ran Spybot and Ad-Aware and finally SmitfraudFix. Nothing worked so I eventually used system restore to reset the computer to two weeks prior. Since then, however, I have not been able to connect to the internet. We use a wireless router and cable modem and it shows them all connected and other computers in the house are able to connect. When I dug into System Information I see the following messag…
