Drivers Are Stored?

Apr 27, 2007

My primary Dell computer has WinXP Pro from a re-install. Unfortunately, the Dell reinstallation CD doesn't have the drivers that the OEM installation had, so whenever I add a hardware device, I have to also install the drivers.

I just acquired a second computer, also a Dell, that has WinXP Home Edition on it. So I was thinking that if I could find the driver "library" on the Home Edn, I could then copy it to the Pro machine

Downloaded Updates Are Stored In?

Jun 18, 2006

Where do the XP updates (auto) go when they're downloaded ?

My PC told me there were some updates ready but when I was downloading them I had a power cut....

now it still says there are updates ready but it zips past the download stage (having recognised the files already exist) and goes straight into the installing stage but it always fails.

I suspect my original download has been corrupted by the power cut. I need to know where these downloaded updates get stored, so I can delete the file and start again.

Importing Favourites Stored In A Folder Into Internet ?

Aug 9, 2005

When I use the Import and Export Menu in I. E. and point to the CD Drive where I have inserted the CD containing Favourites, Windows XP asks me to contact the Administrator. Why can't Windows XP be intelligent enough to verify that I myself am the Administrator and sole User of the Computer, as can be seen from the Users in Control Panel?

Removed Programs By Add/Remove Option But Still In Program Files?

Jul 3, 2005

I removed a program via the add/remove programs and it seemed as though everything was removed... no traces of it on the desktop or via the start up menu. However, browsing through, (is it still windows explorer?), I saw that the folder is still there and full of goodies. Can I just delete the entire main folder? I get nervous in and around there since something is always sharing something from somewhere else.

Cannot Open Properties Dialog Box For Add / Remove Program Files

Feb 15, 2010

If anyone can solve this problem effectively, they need to be congratulated, because I have scoured the internet for hours without success.
1.I cannot open the "Properties " Dialog box in the "Add/Remove Programs" in the Control Panel. In Control Panel, I right-click "Add/Remove Programs" to open the "Properties" Dialog box. But, when I right-click, all that appears is "Open" and "Create Shortcut." The same goes for all the programs in the Control Panel, except a handful may display a 3rd option..."Explore." However, I can click to "Open" any of the programs in the Control Panel. My problem in this case is the "Properties "dialog box is not available. There must be a way to restore this command option.
2. It might be related in some way to Problem # 1. I cannot open "Add/Remove Windows Components" in "Add Remove/Programs." In Control Panel, I click to open "Add/Remove Programs, and click on "Add/Remove Windows Components." It will not open. Instead, this message box appears: "Setup was unable to open information file games.inf. Contact your System Administrator. The specific error code is 0x2 at line 0." I click "OK" and the next message box reads: "The application could not be initialized."

Unable To Delete Or Remove And Rename Files And Folders?

Jun 17, 2005

Using XP SP2 and I can not move, rename or delete any folders.For example - I create a New Folder and try to rename it - it stays as New Folder. I try to move ANY folder and it does not move - stays where it is. Even when copying contents of a USB stick - folders will not move, be renamed or deleted. I CAN however, move files and rename and delete files - just not ANY folder!I can delete the folders from the command prompt though.

Unable To Remove Left-over SecurRom Files From Hard Drive?

Sep 7, 2005

In the last few days, I installed a game I download from Downloads.com.During installation, this product installed SecuRom's copy-protection files to my C:Documents and Settings<User>Application Data folder,creating a folder there (SecuRomData).After uninstalling any downloaded games, and during a routine
inspection of the <User>Application, I noticed the SecuRom folder.Since I have never had any such folder after doing a fresh install of XP, I began to wonder what this was. So I attempted to delete the folder, after using JV16 powertools to search the Registry for any SecuRom entries, and removing them.

All Profiles Stored By System Missing After System Restore?

Dec 5, 2008

This is a machine running on windows XP SP2 1200mz AMD.After restoring system to an earlier date, I am unable to run any program that requires a user profile. I believe that a .dll is currupted. I am not sure but I don't think that the registry is finding the wups2.dll file. I tried the regsvr32 command but could'nt get that to work. Outlook Express will ask for a user profile and password. This never happened before.

I had a power outage about a week ago and since then a printer I had previously connected, Lexmark X5495, started acting up by turning on & off on it's own at all hours of the day.

The error messages I get when I turn on/reboot my computer are the following:
