Static problem
by Guest AB- 9 replies
- 419 views
I'm not sure if this is the right forum for my problem, if not, perhaps someone can direct to a more appropriate one? I've been having a problem with static noise - it comes out of the speakers. If I shut off the speaker, no problem, but that's not a solution. The static occurs frequently, but I can't link it to any screen action. Sometimes I'll be in another room, not having used the computer for an hour, and I'll suddenly hear this horrible loud static noise coming from the PC. It's enough to really scare me! At times the static has been activated by changes to the screen; once or twice it followed keystrokes,sometimes it sounds like a clicking noise, bu…

New Windows operating system and you are now getting a Windows Vista blue screen error. You would have thought there would be no more blue screens of death, but I guess not. So, as long as there is a Windows Vista blue screen error, we will need a fix for it. The solution for a blue screen of death is a registry repair program. In less than 10 minutes, this software can have your computer up and running, and without errors. No need to worry about how to fix this or what you did, just let the software fix it for you. See, in today's world, with DSL and cable internet, people are downloading videos, pictures, screensavers, background images, software, and music. T…

Event ID 54 in ousb2hub: Print jobs not clearing
by Guest Terry Preuit- 7 replies
- 339 views
Hello, Finished print jobs are getting stuck in the printer queue, causing subsequent jobs to wait several minutes before they can be sent to the printer. This is a Windows XP SP3 machine, with a new Canon PIXMMA MX700 multifunction printer. Last Friday I had to replace the original HP OfficeJet 7410 AIO because it would no longer feed paper. Other than that, it worked great despite our torture. The owner wanted a different brand, however, so I recommended this Canon, which I installed after removing the HP software and rebooting. However, we're having two problems that seem to be related: 1) When sending a print job to the queue when it's e…

If I move the network cable from the problem PC to my laptop. I can get the internet on my laptop. On the problem PC, temporarily turning Windows Firewall off didn't help. Thie propblem PC ran out of hard disk space at around the time the problem occurred. I freed up 500Mbytes o…

Foiled Again? XP Not Quite Recovered
by Guest Watty- 14 replies
- 558 views
Here's the short tale of my story. a. C-drive fails b. All contents of the c-drive are captured onto an external drive c. XP is installed on a new drive. d. unstoppable copier puts contents of external on new drive. Program Files folders and all else are replaced with the 'old' folders e. Put new c-drive into machine and boot up Supposedly the new drive should be identical to the original. True or false? In my case, it wasn't, but the desktop looked good. However, few if any apps from there would fire up. One large non-MS app fires up. Icons are missing from the tray. Folder contents seem to be in order. All Start items are available.

Can't force a reboot.
by Guest ShadowTek- 3 replies
- 254 views
I need to script a forced reboot that will occur when certain conditions are meet. I tried to use "shutdown -r -f", but it would only shutdown Windows to the point where it says "Saving System Settings...", and then just it hangs there and never progresses past that point. I need a method that will actually force a reboot. Is there something else that I can try? I'm using XP Media Center SP3.

RE: WGA Notifications Current News Please I have to cime in here after reading numerous posts on numerous newsgroups and blogs, and on Microsoft non helpful help areas,. etc etc, on the web; you get the pic. Bottom line is I;ve been trying to remove this "tool" for days now, and have tried all of the conventional methods described and known to most folks on the general and other xp groups...none have worked. I've used ones p osted here and other places, and have even found the same inefetive "solutions" on yutube; still here. What I am finding is not the same as many have described as their problems. I am using a genuine version of xp BTW, and it has …

Strange trouble in IE7
by Guest Marco Castro- 5 replies

Hi, I'm experiencing a strange problem in my Windows XP (Version 2002 Service Pack 3). I have IE7 installed and it seems to be IE7 (7.0.5730.13). But I have two problems: 1. My bank account site says that I have a IE below than 5.5. When I try to type a number in an Edit Box that handles 4 digits, it moves to the next Edit Box when I type 3 didgits. 2. I try to connect to a Remote Server and my password is not acnowleged (in other micros it works). Any clue other than reinstall everything (I have 74 installed programs in it)? Thanks, Marco Castro
