Task Scheduler simple question
by Guest charles- 5 replies
- 248 views
Hope this is the right place to ask. Is there a way to get Task Scheduler to run overdue events, events scheduled to run when the machine was turned off, as soon as the machine is turned on again or as soon as possible? Windows XP Pro if that matters. I just can't find how. Thanks for any help.

Event Viewer - System
by Guest Patty- 9 replies
- 331 views
I recently checked the Event Viewer for System in my computer and discovered that nothing has been logged there since 8/28/2004. Does that mean I've had no errors or anything to be logged or does it mean that somehow the logging has gotten turned off? I do show current log information for Antivirus and Application, but wonder why System stopped in August 2004? Any info greatly appreciated. Patty

Reinstalling Windows on another HDD w/ same CD key
by Guest Ian Coolidge- 2 replies
- 178 views
I made the fatal flaw of building a system with a PATA hard drive instead of a SATA hard drive. After living with it for 6 months I decided enough was enough and I went out and bought 2 SATA hard drives for a RAID0 configuration. I don't wanna spend another 100+ dollars on a new CD key nor do I want to wait for my Student MSDN liscense to renew in October to get another (basically free) copy of Windows. Is there a way I can reinstall windows using the same CD key I used before? I hear if I activate over the phone it is easier to do since I talk to an actual person. Can anyone give me some guidance in this? Is it possible to do? Thanks, -Ian

Instead, it gives me this message: "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this..." Does anyone know what this is and what I can do? My family thinks it's a virus but I'm not quite sure about that.

Running XP standard and the printer is a Canon PC1200/iC D700. Printer works well most of the time, but after the computer has been running for awhile it won't print unless I reboot. Canon says there is no problem with their driver and it has not been updated. Any ideas? Thanks. retro
