Just a quick question, if i start downloading IE7 (now i finaly have SP2) will i lose any files or settings? I've saved a copy of my saved games on the desktop.

Hi, First i would like to say Yippeeeeeeee! i have downloaded and installed SP2 and it seems to be doing ok but somethings have stopped working. My printer was no longer active ( but i've resolved that problem using the sevices file ) and i'm having problems playing a game that i was playing yesterday. I click on the game icon and it starts as normal, but i try to load my saved game and it asks me to insert game disk which is already in the drive and clicking ' ok ' does nothing. Is there anything i can do? I must sound like a complete bimbo :rolleyes:

Thanks for the help, I've just started the download from your link and i have everything crossed. I'll let you know what happens :) Thanks again

IE6 Do you think its become too old?

Me Again Hi again, Ok, i have reset Explorers settings and i'm still getting the popup that says it has a problem and then shuts it down. I tried to download service pack 2 and it took ages to even get a small amount of blue in the download bar so i had to cancel it. I did this several times to see if it would improve but no such luck. I have just visited the Microsoft site to download the newest Explorer ( the 3-in-1 package ) and i get the popup " Can't find entrypoint SHRegGetValueW in DLL file SHLWAPI.dll " What can i do now, any ideas ? Thanks for your valuable time, Sue

Now another problem :confused: Hi again, I tried reseting Explorer settings and i haven't seen the message popup again so fingers crossed that part is fixed but i have run into a problem when upgrading and installing Service Packs. I seem to have service pack 1 already in the form of Hotfixes but i tried to download pack 2 and another popup said i couldn't do it. I'm sure it said something like "only one service pack per...???...." sorry i didn't write the rest down. I have made sure the automatic updates are switched on and i'm hoping that will help things get better.

This probably seems like a real blond question but does that mean i have to stop using Google? because i like the simplicity of just a search box. A friend suggested upgrading my windows XP with a service pack but i'm not sure if i'm just downloading a lot of stuff for nothing, or where to get it. ( free if possible, small buget ) Any advice?

Hi there, I have Windows XP Home Edition and recently had to format my computer after a virus strike. Everything seems to be running fine until i use Explorer, i start searching for something but after about 10 minutes of extreeeeeeeemly slow opening pages i get the pop up saying "there is a problem with explorer and must shut down" . I've run Super Anti Spyware program and no viruses detected and i've emptied my cookie folder. Maybe someone has another option i can try, i would be very greatful. Thanks for your time. Sue :)

:( Hi there, Last weekend my pc decided to restart itself and i was confronted with a blue screen telling me that windows had not setup properly and then restarted again. This continued over and over again so i installed XP Professional again along side the old installation so i could at least gain access to my photos, copy them to cd and anything else i wanted to keep. This i have done but i was wondering if there would be a file with a copy of emails from Outlook Express?, if there is i can't find it. Can anyone help a hopeless sole?

:) Hi Wolfeymole, Thanks for your advice and i have tried to follow the instructions given but i get an error message saying windows can't find that file. Am i doing something wrong? Start-Run-gpedit.msc Thanks again Sue.

:) Hi there, I'm a newbie to this site and was wondering if someone could help with my XP Home Edition problem. Everytime i use Ctrl-Alt-Del i get the message that the task manager has been disabled by the administrator. This is confusing me a little as i am the sole user of this pc and my profile states i am the administrator. The guest profile has been switched off too so it can't create problems. Can someone please tell me how to change this? Thanks for your time Sue. :p
