Everytime I start the computer i cannot do anything until a folder titled
'common' appears, inside the folder is another folder titled 'bin', inside
'bin' are four files titled 'iviaudio.ax', 'ivinav.ax', 'iviaudioeff.ax' and
'ivivideo.ax'. This folder didn't used to come up so i guess i have done
something, how can i repair it to stop it appearing?
When I start up my pc a folder by the name of "Common" always pops up for no reason and is completely empty and needs to die because it is starting to annoy me ^_^ It starts before anything else including my virus scanner and if I close it before the other things are loaded it appears again I don't think it's related to adware or any viruses etcetera I keep my computer pretty clean. The folder isn't registered in my startup files which is why I wonder what the hell it's there for. If anyone knows how to fix this annoying problem please reply. I don't know the file path or anything because I have a problem showing the path in folders but that's something I can live with, a "common" file that comes up every time I login is not!My computer is a Sony Vaio RS100 running windows XP service pack 2.
View 6 Replies View Relatedwhen I transfer my digital images from my camera to my PC (XP Serv.. pack 2) I use the built in transfer program which appears to be titled Microsoft Scanner and Camera wizard. It worked well for awhile.Is there a program setup key where I can check settings for the software? I used to be able to simply type in new file name and it would put the new folder in "My Picture folder" not anymore, have to a lot manually.The pgm also seems to reproduce the pics each time I click a photo change it etc, and I end up with up to 10x the number of pics all duplicates!. this is hard to explain to a fairly new user with digital cameras.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI just built a new computer and installed Windows XP Pro with SP2 on it. When I set up my hard drive and OS, I partitioned my lone hard drive into three partitions: 10 Gb C: drive for Windows, drivers, etc., and a pair of 111 Gb drives for things like program installs. I noticed that my C: drive is filling up rather rapidly, and I discovered that Program FilesCommon Files is taking up a considerable amount of space. I would like to move this folder onto one of my bigger partitions, but I'm not sure how to do it without screwing up all my programs. Any direction on this matter (that doesn't involve re-partitioning and starting from scratch) would be appreciated.

When I boot up my computer the system 32 folder appears. I would like to get rid of this unscheduled appearance. There is no mention of System 32 in msconfig so I cannot simply uncheck a box and have it not start up. I did find a MS article on this problem; http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=170086, but it calls for editing the registry and as the directions are not too clear, I am afraid to do this on my own for fear of fouling something critical. I am fine with the instructions till the last step where they call for editing Value data. If someone knowledgable with the registry could give me some detailed directions I would like to try to eliminate System 32 from appearing. Computer info (if needed) is in my profile.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI was having this problem on my old install of XP, which desperately needed a new install. In any case, I'm now using a freshly installed version of XP, and everything has been running perfectly for about 2 weeks. Suddenly, this one problem reappears: The File Open / Save As dialog box (aka Windows Common Control / comctl32.dll) takes forever to open (20 seconds to 60 seconds). I just did a chkdsk and defrag, and that did not solve the problem. Also, there are no network drives connected which could be slowing things down. This happens in both MS programs (such as Notepad) and 3rd party programs (such as Firefox).
