I have a file (.reg extension) that I would like to add to my registry. When I double click on the file when I am using one of my PC's (both are using XP) the message pops up and asks if I would like to add the entry to my registry and I simply click yes. On my other XP machine, I double click on it and the file opens up in word pad. Any way to not have word pad open the file and get the dialog box to ask whether or not to enter it into the registry?
If I go into my registry and manually delete the entry, but as soon as I do, it automatically respawns itself. Spybot removes it but it comes back. If anyone has had this problem and has fixed it, please let me know of what you did to fix it. I emailed Spybot with a copy of a scan and its information and they told me they were coming out with a new update that would probably fix this and that was over 2 months ago and none of the updates has fixed it.
my laptop keeps turning itself off. I run Panda AV Software.

I don't have a good feeling about this. So yesterday, I went to bed fine, my computer was great. I leave it running usually. I wake up. I can use everything normally, that was opened. I didn't try to run a new .exe file. So I was using Firefox fine, and msn too. Then, I wanted to watch a video with media player classic, and I get an entry point not found error. Notibly I was concerned, but I figured it was just a corrupted file within the realm of the media player, not my computer. So, I decided to try and open up taskmanager. As soon as I do, this is the error I get ".The procedure entry point NdrtypgUnmarshall could not be located in the dynamic link library RPCRT4.dll." Also, something to note, is that if I click okay on the error, it just pops back up, so I can't get rid of it.
My cursor has also returned to the original version, (I'm using cursorXP). I went to system32 to check if I still had the .dll file, or if it had somehow been edited, and nope, it's still there, and it seems untouched. What on earth is going on? How can such a huge error pop up overnight without me doing anything? Also one more thing, some programs that are already open, such as AVG, will not give me an error when I try to run something within them, merely nothing will happen. I can't use my control panel, either.

Ok, I'm losing my patience with my dial-up connection. I signed up with a new provider and I am getting this message under the Network and Dial-Up Connections window.
Error 623: The System Could Not Find the Phonebook Entry for this Connection
I can connect to the internet via dial-up but it periodically drops my connection and I get the above error message. I am still able to connect to my old dial-up provider and I don't get this error or get dropped. I'm skepitcal that it's the way I initially set up the new connection with the new provider. I found this link (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/227391/) to microsoft'ss website addressing the issue but it does no help me.
It says to do the following;
1.Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Network and Dial-up Connections. 2.Right-click the Virtual Private Connection in question, and then click Properties. 3.Select the "Dial another connection first" check box, and then select the appropriate Dial-up connection from the drop-down list box. If there is no Dial-up connection to choose from in this location, you may have to create a Dial-up connection and then repeat these steps.
BUT there is no option to "Dial another connection first" check box. It just doesn't exist
I have an IBM Thinkpad Z51 that I got through school.It has worked fine until now but now whenever I boot the laptop,it freezes at the password entry screen. I can boot in safemode no problem, but as soon as I enter the first letter of my password in normal mode, the computer freezes. Sometimes, after pressing F8 and using the last known good configurations like 8 times I can finally enter my password

My last comp died on me and I have recently been given a DELL Dimension 3000 (if that helps) and am running Windows XP. I keep getting an error message.

I have a printer/copier/fax/scanner which was working perfectly. It is a Lexmark X1270. My Computer is a HP Multimedia with a windows XP operating system. Suddenly one day it stopped working. the following error message appeared error message: the procedure entry point? GetProductPrefix@LXkProduct@@SA?AVCString@@XZ could not be located in dynamic link library lxczutil.dll. when trying to use the copy function. For the printer function it would sometimes print ONE item. Then to print anything else I have to restart the computer and again it would print only one copy. Unfortunately the original cd with the drivers has been lost so I emailed the lexmark. They asked me to download the driver for X2500. I tried but it did not work as the model number seems different. I sent them 3 reminders for further help which they did not reply! And now again suddenly a few days ago the printer does not even load. Message says 'Spooler service is not running'. And even the other printers are unusable because the fax printer box is empty and I cannot reload a printer ..the same 'Spooler....appears.

Using Windows XP pro SP2 and need some help. I have a program which I like called T-Clock2 you can get a copy here: http://shii.org/tclock/ my problem is when I originally installed it I foolishly installed it from an UNZIPPED location.I want to try to correct that & do not know how to do it, so I hope someone can help, there is NO UNINSTALLER for the product and it does NOT show up in ADD/REMOVE programs & when I go to MSCONFIG & click on the startup tab, it shows location of c:unzipped clock2. I can unclick that then on reboot the program does not startI want to move the EXE file/folder to a real location (Like c:Tclock2), HOW do I change the startup entry in MSCONFIG not to point to UNZIPPED & point to the new C:TCLOCK2 location?

I add a Favorite to IE. It's OK to add a new Favorite Folder, but when press final enter, it hangs IE for ages, the hard drive goes bananas, and FINALLY it comes back to life, entered. I do have a lot of favorites. Is there a Tweak for this?
I was thinking of adding a second HD to my pc for working with Video and Picture editing programs only. I know I would have to format the new HD but do I also have to install WIN xp on it as well?
Windows XP has only three color schemes to choose from. I wondered if there was a way to add new color schemes (and for that matter, a place to specifically find new color schemes) without installing software like Style XP or WindowBlinds. I just want to configure the color scheme, not everything else. Can this be done?
I need some help. I have a Compaq Presario 715us laptop that I just added 256mb of ram.Since then the laptop freezes and the only way to get it back is to hold the power button.It will run from between five minutes and four hours before it freezes. If I remove the new Compaq ram all is well. It is the correct ram per Compaq. I've run looping diags on the ram and they all pass. I've spent hours on the phone with the clueless folks at Compaq. I've called Kingston to see if they know of a problem, and they didn't. There are no logs associated. I've changed hard drives and reloaded xp with all the updates but it still locks up.I searched the web and found tons of posts on the HP busines forum site of people with many models of Compaq laptops freezing after adding ram. They used all different ram other than Compaq's. They were from three years ago. They found that if they removed xp patch Q811493 in sp1 it corrected the problem. They said that this patch was rolled into KB826939. I've searched for both of these on my laptop and found neither. I've checked add remove programs with show update checked and it isn't there. It may be in SP2 or it may not be related to this issue in my case.
When i right click on an image file(jpeg) and choose properties..is it possible to add properties like height and width,and in megapixel perhaps?aside from the default: location, and size.
On my taskbar, just to the right of the green start button I have two icons (IE and Outlook) and I used to have an icon for the desktop. Somehow the desktop icon (which would minimize all open programs and show the desktop) has disapeared. Does anyone know how to add it back to the task bar?
I have a Dell Dimension 8300 desktop with 80GB hard drive and 3 GB RAM. Dell do told me I can have only a total of 120GB hard drive on my machine. Dell forum said that is not right. The Dell manual states there is are 2 bays for 1" high hard drives and it gives installation directions for adding a second internal drive. I have 3 external hard drives for backups, photos and much of what I don't need or want on the C drive. I need to install more programs for photography since they can not be run from an external drive according to those I have asked.
i dont know if its just me (probably) but i find it hard to find threads i have posted from 4 to 5 days ago...if i do a search on my name, not all my threads come up! this means i have to go through the whole list page by page (or is there a better way) i used to have a microsoft word option available when i right click and went "new" now its gone...

I have 1 memory slot left in my motherbaord and it supports a maximum of 1GB in that slot - I have used the previous 2 with 1GB in each channel running as dual channel memory.
Can Windows XP MCE 2005 work with more than 2GB of memory? I heard that XP with more than 2GB of memory is like Me with more than 512MB. Under Me when I used more than 512MB RAM (768MB) it worked but after performing intensive tasks I has incredibly slow performance to the point where the system almost grinded to a halt!! I wouldnt even dare make full use of the 1GB as I saw articles on MS website saying that 1GB will cause 9x OS's to completely not start at all!! Oh and lets not forget the glorious BSOD - those bring back some memories!
Once I upgraded to XP the 768MB of RAM worked fine. Then went onto 1GB and then afterwards a nice comfy 2GB.
Simply put, if I have 3GB of RAM, will I experience slowdowns or lockups in XP MCE 2005 much like I did in Me, when I had 768MB of RAM? Is 2GB of RAM the "ceiling" in XP MCE 2005 for good reliable performance.
I understand that this is a widows update client running process, but I have 18 of them running in my task manager!!!I can't browse the Internet or open applications (MS Word, Windows Media Player, etc.)and I can't access its files on my network. It tries to run the app when you select it, but then itquickly goes away. Seems like over time the wuauclt's keep adding on in the task manager, like it's trying to update but can't.All my computer can really do is open task manager and get into control panel.
