We have about 300 users who are using windows profiles. All of the accounts are working except 2 users. When these two log in in creates their files under the documents and settings, but their desktop and favorites are empty. In another place on the c drive it creates these exact same 2 files with the data in them. Their desktop and favorites are copied to the server ok. We have checked security and delete their accounts in active directory and recreated them and it still happens. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. thanks al

I was working in a word document that I opened from an e-mail attachment. Instead of clicking "Save As" to save it, I clicked the disk icon in the upper left corner. Now I can't find the document. I've searched by date and key word, looked in all my document folders and hidden folders. Is there any way to find this document?

SP3
by Guest speedy_mike- 1 reply

I got a window saying SP3 was ready to install with warnings to close all programs and backup my system. Trouble is, it didn't say how to restart the install Wizard after the backup. Also, this took me by surprise and I have no idea what SP3 will do. Changes? Remove functionality? Enhance functionality? I went to a Windows page, http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=68c48dad-bc34-40be-8d85-6bb4f56f5110&displaylang=en, and couldn't really find any good material on what's actually being done. Does anyone have a good reference to SP3 and what it does? Thanks much, Mike

Random Reboots; Minidump says kmixer
by Guest Marla- 7 replies

We purchased 8 identical XP workstations around August last year and deployed them in September through November last year. Each machine is running identical software. We had 2 reboots in September, one in November, and 2 in February, on different machines. Then on June 12 we started having frequent random reboots. They seem hardware rather than software related because the machine doesn't log anything going down, only coming back up. The two error messages we are getting are: Error code 8086 with all parameters 0s or error code 100000d1 with parameters 28, 2, 0 and f7b51be7. Each minidump always refers to kmixer.sys. We are only using on-board audi…

I've a legal copy of Windows XP with Service Pack 3. I recently bought a 320Gb Maxtor PATA HDD. My BIOS recognizes 320Gb, so Linux and Plan 9 Operating Systems, but for some extrange reason, Windows XP SP3, only 128Gb. I created EnableBigLba Key (It didn`t exist), DWORD, Value 1 in: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\atapi\Parameters Rebooted the machine, but had no effect. When I open Administrative tools->Equipment Management->Disk Management I see always a 128Gb Disk instead the real, 320 Gb. The same with Partition Magic and other partitioning tools. My XP is in Spanish. First I installed XP, then upgraded to SP1, later …
