I recently purchased a fully sealed retail box of Windows XP Pro from a seller online only to find out that it is a UK-version, although made in the US. (E85-02667) I've doublechecked the COA and everything looks legitimate according to the Microsoft "How to Tell" website, including the holographic ribbon under the port hole. I have not opened up the package yet to look at the CD but the box is sealed, so I'm assuming it's fine. What I need to know however is will this UK-version work on my US-made computer? There is very little documentation online to support this although someone did say it would work but that the UK had many programming differences. …

Hello experts. A little while ago, I accidentally created a 'New Folder' on the desktop only. Now I can't delete it as it says it is a system file that Windows needs. Clearly it doesn't as it doesn't appear via search anywhere else (with hidden files displayed). How do I get rid of it? ###thanks

The other day I tried to install a new printer, it was an HP Deskjet D4360. After it was installed and it told me to restart my computer I did, but when my computer was booting up again, it just stopped on the windows load screen with that blue bar thing moving by, it just stopped and wouldnt do anything. So than I was able to get on in safe mode and bring my computer back to a restore point and that helpped my computer. But now some webpages wont load on IE and others take a very long time for no reason, like google freezes my computer now and just random sites freeze me up. What could the problem be? I have a dell inspiron 5100 with windows xp with sp2.

I have a PC with 2 hard drives (C & E). I recently lost my C drive and had to replace and rebuild it. I am running XP Pro and I am unable to access my E drive. It shows a volume of 'Gateway II' and I am unable to assign a drive letter to this volume. I have approx 30gb of information on this drive. Does anyone have any ideas for me? -- Need desperate help

I have a box in the middle of my desktop that states, warning, your computer is infected with spyware....... There is no box to close it, and I can not click on it to delete it. I have changed the background, and it stays right in the middle of the screen. I have booted up in safe mode and it does not appear, however I can not find it, to remove it. I have run ad-aware and Symantec, and removed anything that was on the computer, but I can not get ride of this box. any suggestions?

Here's something I can't figure out: I bought a new laptop and am transferring files from the old one, through a USB external drive. For some of the files, the new machine says "The filename is too long or filename isn't valid" so the transfer is aborted. They're both XP machines (well, the old one is XP Home and the new one is XP Pro). If the name was fine on the old machine, why isn't it fine on the new one? Especially since in these cases the names aren't even that long. I'm guessing I have to set something on the new machine. Anybody offer any insights? Thanks! John

I am running XP with SP3 on a 160GB hard drive, of which I have used about 10GB. I have a 1.8G processor. I use Diskeeper 9 Professional to defrag. Until recently it would defrag in about 10 to 15 mins at the most. It has now slowed down to a crawl. I have tried using the built in XP defragger which completes very quickly. I have tried Diskeeper Lite and that too takes a long time. Even when I have just completed a defrag and run Diskeeper again it still then takes an age to complete. I have done a lot of Googling but can not come up with a solution. Any ideas would be appreciated. Daz
