Regedit will not go to a new screen
by Guest letterman@invalid.com- 3 replies
- 439 views
I was using Regedit to search for a line of text. I did my search, and closed Regedit. Later I tried to search again for something else, and found Regedit was still stuck where I left off in my last search. It did not give me the "opening screen", it just went right into that old search. I did a complete reboot and power down, and it's still stuck in that old search. How do I kill that old search and get it back to normal?

Paging File
by Guest Sid Elbow- 9 replies
- 621 views
I suspect this is a dumb question but .... I was doing some defragmenting yesterday and elected to have the page-file defragged as part of the process (PerfectDisk 8). It needed to do it at boot time so I re-booted and dutifully sat for 10 - 15 min while the page file was defragged. At this point I began to wonder why this was necessary. I thought the page file was just to offload the system memory when it gets full. Is there any data in the page file that needs to survive a reboot? Could a defrag not consist of simply clearing or deleting/recreating it? (Come to that, couldn't windows itself do that as part of the boot process)?

Re-installing on laptop with no CD drive
by Guest Alpha- 14 replies
- 762 views
We need to re-install Windows 98 SE or ME or 2K-Pro on a laptop that has its CD drive internal connection damaged. The floppy drive works though. We have all the original Windows CDs and a Win98 boot floppy, as well as all the required drivers. The unit originally had Win98 on it that was later upgraded to WinME and subsequently to Win2K-Pro. Can we - take out the hard drive and format it (using appropriate existing adapters) in FAT on another machine and - copy the CD contents and device drivers to an install folder, and - put that drive back into the laptop, and - boot with the Win98 floppy, and - run Setup from the install folder, bypassing the CD drive? …

restart command, shuts down and stays down
by Guest MF- 7 replies
- 539 views
I've got an HP DL360 G4p with Win 2k SP4 on it. When I issue the restart command on it, it shuts down but won't start up again - which is a bit of a pain if I ever have to restart it remotely. I'm scratching my head. I've reapplied SP4 but (surprise surprise) it made no difference. HP say it's an MS issue. Anyone any ideas? Thanks... Mike

Server 2 RDP license now 1?
by Guest OldBored- 6 replies
- 514 views
I have noted that, not this week but some time in the recent past, Windows Server 2000 (all versions) seem to have lost a CAL for RDP. The server came with a 2 CAL license to administer the server, now all the 2000 servers I have to administer remotely only allow a single sign on. Anyone know why Microsoft took away this CAL? Any plan to give it back? Sometimes we need 2 people in there.

Uncontrollable scrolling in all apps
by Guest DSolymar- 2 replies
- 381 views
I have an HP Omnibook 6000 laptop that is running Windows 2000 Professional. The computer seemed to be working fine until a couple of days ago when it became impossible to select anything because the cursor would automatically scroll down any menu in any program and cycle through all the options continuously. This happens in Internet Explorer (selection goes all the way to the bottom of the page and it's impossible to scroll back up without holding down the Ctrl key at the same time), Windows Explorer, and all apps. It even happens on startup, where I have a choice to select Windows 2000 or my old Windows 98 OS; the selection bounces back and forth unco…

Re: Error DCOM 10010

Re: Error DCOM 10010 An old post but thought I'd mention how I solved this as the process may help someone even if the fault is different. This was the error: "The server {204810B9-73B2-11D4-BF42-00B0D0118B56} did not register with DCOM within the required timeout." I searched the registry for the {...} reference and found the key: "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{204810b9-73b2-11d4-bf42-00b0d0118b56}" I searched for this and found Microsoft info explaining that it "registers the COM coclass for the UPnPRegistrar interface." (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms907987.aspx) I was lucky because the same info gave a sub-key which was missing from the r…

How can I disable the use of regedit and regedt32?
by Guest George Hester- 5 replies
- 385 views
The reason I ask is because for some reason the two have been disabled in my domain controller Administrator account in Windows 2000 SP4. Luckily I made duplicate Administrator equivalent accounts when I first constructed this machine so not all is lost but I would like to get back the control for the original Administrator account. I believe something happened to a Group Policy or Local Security or Domain security or Controller security or some other security or NTFS securuity or ...

Formatting Hard Drive with Windows 2000 on it
by Guest Trainbuff- 8 replies
- 566 views
I bought a Dell Latitude C600 off of eBay a few months ago, and it worked out fine, until it somehow contracted a virus (I believe it might have been something left on by the previous owner, as he stated he didn't know too much about computers, and the fact I didn't get around to putting any type of virus protection on it.) I wanted to know if it was possible to format the hard drive without having the Windows 2000 disk, as he did not send this to me. I didn't have anything of importance on the computer, so I figure I'll just go ahead and start it over. So, how do I format the hard drive? Any help will be appreciated.
