I would like to know if anyone knows of where I can find drivers for a HP
2550n laser printer. After looking at the HP website, and talking to a "Tech
Support Person", before I purchased this printer it said that it was XP
Professional x64 compatilble, now that I have it home it seems it isn't. I
would like to know if there is a way to possibly run x64 in a 32 bit mode so
that i can use the software that was sent with this printer.
A while back I needed remote assistance from a tech person He fixed my problem but what I need to know is can he still get on my PC(WXP Home) whenever it suits him.How can I tell if he vists ?He setup my web page remotely as well and I saw he updated a part yesterday I am very concerned regarding my other private stuff , emails, etc
I wanted to make this my special post, as its my 1000, and encourage all members to use their System Restore more, I keep a system restore icon on my desktop and make a restore point everyday, I know the computer is suppose to do it, but it makes me feel better, evertime I make drastic changes or questionable downloads I make a restore point, I simply type call it rp it only takes less than 10 seconds, if everyone did this we really could cut down on ourTech Support. Have a good day. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/u...w_03may19.mspx

I created several folders on my desktop for pictures sent to me in Outlook Express. After I transferred these pictures to their correct folders I wrote them to a CD. I deleted all the folders from my desktop except one. I keep getting this error message that I cannot delete this particular folder because it is being used by another person or program and to close any programs that might be using the file and try again. I've closed all programs and no one is using this file and still I can't delete it. I have Windows XP Home Edition.
How can I determine if I have a video card installed in my pc that supports dual monitors?And if so, will using a VGA splitter cable allow me to use either of them for differnt task?
I downloaded an .exe file but cancelled the download before it finished. Now, it's sitting on my desktop and I can't delete it. For the past few days, it kept saying that the file is being used by another person or program. Even though the list of applications in the Task Manager was empty, I still couldn't delete it. I wasn't familiar enough with the processes to know which process to end, but I've a hunch it's explorer.exe. Now when I try to delete the same file, it says that it is not a valid Win32 application. FYI, I've tried using Killbox to delete it but it didn't work. Is there a way to delete this file?

I am running Windows XP on a Gateway GM5084 Media Center, and for over eight months, I've been having to deal with what I believe are hackers. I have reinstalled my system, both destructive and Partial, a number of times and still haven't got rid of them. Yesterday (11/19/07), after my last reload, my username and Administrator access rights were suddenly changed from the Owner/Administrator to just someone who has limited access. I don't know what my user name is because there isn't a Welcome screen.I haven't been able to find them under "Users" in the Control Panal. Unfortunately, the Control Panal itself disappeared as of last night.
My computer is in a hostel network.when someone opens my computer through my IP, than simultaneously computer also hangs and numlock light is alwayz turned on and i even could not move my mouse.Damn i have to restart and only it works now,So Is this the problem of my hardware or of network cable or of XP OS.
I'm running Windows XP and I have been having trouble deleting a file on my C drive. I get the message "Cannot delete It is being used by another person or program. Close any programs that might be using the file and try again." This is the file path C:SEVEN_4X3LB_SIDE_B.ISO I have never had so much trouble with a file before. I searched many places on the web for a solution, have found many which have helped other people but not in my case.
I can't seem to delete this icon on my desktop, whenever I try to delete it an error message comes up which says:'Cannot delete LuxorARSetup-dm: It is being used by another person or program. Close any programs that might be using the file and try again'I've rebooted numerous times. I've had this problem once before and I solved it, but I can't remember what I did!
we built our new gaming rig and would like to install WinXP Pro on it. I have seen at the Newegg site that there is a $40.- difference between WinXP Pro and the 64bit version. With this configuration, do you think that it's better to go with WinXP Pro 64 bit?
While I have found many solutions to this problem, these solutions don't work for the 64bit platform. All of my programfiles/microsoftoutlook/.... files have been corrupted, so i need to completely reinstall outlook, what i have tried so far is this:1)remove the isInstalled from the registry and reinstall windows explorer Result:I can't find a version of Windows Explorer I can install on my computer because the installs always say that you cant install on a 64 bit platform 2 booted off xp cd, did repair Result: didnt help My Network Places now also doesnt work, but I believe thats because they share a common DLL in programfiles/microsoftoutlook/If i new someone else that was running XP64 I would manually get the files off them but I dont,
I used my student status to obtain a copy of windows XP Pro 64bit edition. I am currently building a new comp and I was wondering if it was worth a damn? If not I will stick with XP Pro for now.

I bought my wife an HP desktop and ordered it with Vista 64bit OS. We ran into some issue that led to us buying a new printer and it does not run some video games we like to play. We just tolerated it for a while but she hates it so I was thinking about buying a copy of XP and loading it up on her system. Are there any issues with doing this or should it just work? I expect I will have to download some drivers for 32bit but that should be easy enough
I just had a new system built last week and loaded XP x64 as my operating system. I am seeing a huge decrease in my framerate while gaming and was told on another forum that XP x64 is probably the culprit. I thought that going 64 bit would be an improvement over 32
I have an nLited XP 64bit CD. I don't have any other CDs to copy over to, but I have a 4GB USB flash drive. I am having a hard time finding stores that either sell floppy drives or external floppy drives. But I need one in order to install my RAID drivers so that my SATA drive can be detected for installing XP on. I have the following setup (Stuff you need to know):Asus Vintage AH-1 barebones motherboard (AMD Socket 939)SATA 80GB harddrive (on RAID using the ULi utility)IDE 80GB harddrive, set to cable select, because this is technically my backup slave driver (too slow to run software from) (Yes, this system is outdated, but I need to make due with what I have until I can build myself the system I want) I need to be able to install my RAID drivers so that I can have my SATA drive detected. I have ideas, but I'm not one to be able to do things about them.
So i'm upgrading my dad's computer right.For some reason I thought he had 2x1gb modules in it already and he was complaining about it being slow. I know its full of spyware and what not, so I went and bought another 2gb kit and brought win xp 64 w/ me.I go and and wipeout the machine, install xp 64 and boot it up. I then realize that this machine only had 512MB in it. I open it up (yah I know should have checked first) and see that his MB only has 2 slots in it. So I end up pulling out the 512 dimm and installing the 2 1gb modules.My question is now, is should I leave him be... or is it actually better for him to run win xp 32 bit edition seeing as we only have 2GB ram.His cpu btw is a pentium D dual core 2.66 GHz, which is 64 bit processor.
Can I install the 32bit version of Windows XP Pro on a system with the following specs?Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 Socket 775 2.4GHz RAM: 2GB DDR Hard drive: 1x500GB SATA2 Graphics: XFX GeForce 7900GS 256MB DDR3 PCIE Dual DVI 450/1.32 Motherboard: ASRock S775 VIA PT880 Ultra ATX Audio Lan Sound: onboard (for now)
I am using Pentium 3 system with Window XP Professional. I need to know that whether my operating system is Winddows XP 32bit or 64bit? How can I know about it?
