Unable to block/unblock contacts in MSN Messenger
by Guest Ale- 0 replies
- 193 views
Whenever I try to either block or unblock a contact by right clicking on it in the contact list the action won't be performed (the contact still shows in the same status as before attempting the change). When i right click the contact in my contact list it says either "unblock" or "block" as if they are blocked/unblocked but there's no red circle next to their name to say they are blocked in the first case.When I log out from MSN a sign will pop displaying the message:"Contact X (the one I tried to block/unblock) cannot be blocked/unblocked. Please try again later". Is this a server issue or a problem with my MSN installation? I haven't done any changes …

Under "services" it shows that Security Center is running "automatically" but I have no way to access the program without the icon (that I know of). OS: Windows XP Home Service Pack 3 Thanks for any help in restoring the icon. If I can't get this corrected, my only tought was to reinstall Service Pack 2 (have a disk which includes Windows Security Center) then run the windows updater and update it back to…

USB Port Not Working
by Guest LMO- 4 replies
- 282 views
Aloha all. I bought a 4 Port USB Hub, but it is not working. It has a male USB plug, to plug into the USB ports on my computer, and add 4 more. I plugged it into the front USB port on my XP/SP3 system, but nothing is recognized when I plug into the port. The Device Manager says it is an Unknown Device under USB Controllers, and it says No Drivers Are Installed. The Hub did not come with any drivers. Is there any way I can get this recognized and working easily? Thank you.

No response to ctrl-alt-del
by Guest dan- 4 replies
- 441 views
The computer is a Windows 2003 Server, Standard, SP2, configured as file/print server on the domain. A couple of days ago, the server stopped responding to ctrl-alt-del to unlock the server, and remote access stopped working also. I feel like the problem has to do with too many terminal services sessions in use or something related to that, but I thought a reboot would clear that up. It didn't. After reboot, I'm back in the situation where I can't remote access the server (either on the lan or over the internet via RDP) and it will not respond to ctrl-alt-del. I'm obviously going to have to reboot again, but when I do, any thoughts on how I can troublesh…

Admin Alerts on BSOD
by Guest Kardon Coupé- 1 reply
- 208 views
Dear All, I've got a machine, that now and again (dunno why), it BSOD's . I did have it set that it didn't reset when i had a monitor, but I'd had the monitor away for a while and been VNC'ing to it....and I'd forgot about the 'automatically reset' being unticked.. Found it the other day, not accessable, it had BSOD'd again, turned it off and back on, put the 'tick' back....and it reminded me... 'Send an administrative alert' what exactly does that do? can I set the machine up that 'occasianally' BSOD's to send a message to another machine to let me know? Thanks in Advance. Regards Paul.

XP Pro install leads to missing Windows utilities
by Guest davidi- 11 replies

After several problems, I reformatted my HD and installed XP Pro, then installed (after download from Microsoft) SP3 and all other Windows Updates. Then, I reinstalled my apps. Things *seemed* OK. However, I wanted details on my video card and clicked on Start/ Programs/Accessories/System Tools/System Information; absolutely nothing happened. I then clicked on Start/Help and Support, and got a message that "Windows cannot open Help and Support because a system service is not running. To fix this problem, start the service named 'Help and Support'." However, when I tried Start / Run / Services.msc and looked at the list, I found *no* service beginning with "Help"…
