Hi!! When I install the SP2 on my Small Business Server 2003, the instalation process give me an error and undo the instalation. Then I restart the server and after the logo of Windows 2003, when is switching to next screen (windows screen with the message 'applying computer' setting and log in) the system give me a blue screen without any message (only with the typical message that may be it's a hardware problem bla bla bla).

Friend of mine is having a wierd problem with his CD drive. 1. If he puts a game CD or DVD in, the game starts. 2. If he puts a movie DVD, the movie plays. 3. If he inserts a music (Bought, not made) CD or a picture (made) CD in and when he explores the disk, it brings up blank explorer window. Also, the drive lable never changes from "DVD-RAM Drive (D:)". 4. If he inserts his Recovery Disk in, it comes up blank, also. He has already replaced his drive, and it is doing the same thing.

double xp trouble

my laptop was working fine, a client computer on a home wireless router. Out of nowhere it won't connect to the internet and there is an error message saying limited or no connectivity. We hadn't done anything new or different so I don't know what happened. I checked in device manager and there was a yellow alert symbol by the PCI modem. It said there wasn't a driver installed. I tried to reinstall it, repair it, update it but nothing worked. As a last resort I uninstalled it and rebooted but that didn't work either. Next day, the screen is blank. I reboot, the initial windows xp logo comes up with the blue bars underneath then it goes blank. The compute…

Hi all, Several things set to run at startup randomly fail. Usually Nod Antivirus, Comodo Firewall, Ad-watch 2007 or the volume icon. Is there a registry or other fix for this problem or is it more complex? I have scanned for viruses & spyware but found nothing. Look forward to you ideas.

SFC and Windows update
by Guest Stephen- 1 reply
- 158 views
As I understand it, if the system file checker discovers a missing file, it is replaced from the original installation CD. However, this may be out of date. If I subsequently run Windows update, will the out of date file be detected and updated? What is confusing me is that if Windows update can detect an individual file being out of date, why can't it detect the missing file in the first place and replace it? In other words, why is SFC needed? I shall be grateful if anyone can put me right on this. Stephen

The laptop keyboard works fine. I have downloaded and installed MS intellipoint 6.1 software and still get no where. The keyboard is a MS digi…
