All Is Vertically Stretched Out &am - Can't Get It Fixed
May 7, 2008
I registered myself as a 'beginner' and now I'm thinking 'illiterate' would have been more accurate. If I can fix this, I will be sooo excited.I don't know how I made the change, but all of a sudden everything on my screen was magnified ginormously. I figured out how to change the resolution, but then ended up getting everthing small and vertically tall. When I go into settings to try to put it back the window is so tall I cannot get down to click on the "apply" button. How do I make the changes now that I can't get to the apply button?

I have an XP workstation that runs a DOS application that is started up using a PIF file. The DOS app runs fine but does not display a full screen vertically. Horizontially, it displays a full screen since I checked the Full Screen mode in the PIF file parameters. I want to have the entire screen taken up by the display of the DOS program. Two other PCs (one a WIN98 PC and the other a WIN2K PC) display in a complete screen.

I have bought an LG Flatron L192WS monitor (widescreen) for my 4 year old computer which has an NVIDIA Get Force 4 MX Integrated GPU.
I find that photographs are compressed vertically in the display. Is the problem with the video card? The maximum resolution I can get with the present vard is only 1280x1024. Even at that resolution the problem persists. The driver of the card is version 4.1.1.3 dated 12-07-2002.

I need to know how to get my desktop to look the way it always has in the past. I did some odd thing and now the toolbar that has always behaved and stayed at the bottom of my desktop horizontally, is now standing straight up vertically on the left side of my desktop. What is the procedure to get it back to my "normal".

I managed to fix the WgaLogon.dll logon problem, but now I'm getting "Excecuting C:WindowsSystem32wlnotify.dll" as well as the "Playing logon sound" as before. I tried searching Google for a solution for this too but there was nothing.

I have a computer that has Hal.dll missing. Can this be fixed through the recovery console? I think it can but I don't remember how. A Wipe/install isnt the best option here.

Browsed these forums and others, tried various solutions, and I can't find anything that's helping me out.I'm running Windows XP Home on a laptop, and when it attempts to boot, it tells me that hal.dll is missing or corrupt.To correct this, I put in my Windows XP CD, and I can get it to the recovery console just fine. At the recovery console, I've tried the following:- chkdsk ("The volume appears to contain one or more unrecoverable problems.")- bootcfg ("There are currently no boot entries available to display.")- fixboot ("The boot sector cannot be fixed.")
- expand from CD ("The specified file was not found."- repair installation (It won't even begin. Error as soon as I select the partition C:)

Recently I was working on my brothers pc when I encountered some serious explorer.exe problems. After trying various workarounds with no sucess I ended up doing a repair install (was xp prof sp2). It fixed the explorer.exe problems, but now I have an even bigger headache on my hands.I cannot run Windows Update or IE, although I did download SP3 from download.com. I cannot install it though because it says it needs SP1. I tried installing SP1a, but it says it cannot verify update.inf and to turn on my Cryptographic services. When I try to turn that on, services wont open and produces an error message that says "MMC failed to intialize because it was installed incorrectly or because a portion of the registry has become corrupted. Make sure the file Mmcndmgr.dll is registered by running 'regsvr32 %SystemRoot%system32mmcndmgr.dll'. I try that it says that "Loadlibrary failed - the specific procedure could not be found." Oh, and I am constantly getting an error message which says "the procedure entry point SHRegGetValueW could not be located in the dynamic link library SHLWAPI.dll".

First off, I give much respect and appreciation to those who run and contribute to this website. I have followed for a while and see great things happening here everyday. Kudos to you all. My issue is that I got a pretty nasty virus that I feared had wiped my hard drive. It corrupted my boot sector somehow and I couldn't even boot in safe mode w/o the blue screen of death giving me a stop error. I used an install disc and fixed it with the software fix. so now I am back up and running all systems go.

1.I fixed system32 missing error, now xp set up a new user. My old files are there... But I can't log on as my old user name to get back to work. Is there a simple way to restore my old user? Everything appears to be fine.
2. In my hours of attempting to fix the system 32 thing 2 new boot points have been installed. I cant seem to get rid of them. I tried the msconfig thing but there is no way to delete them from there. Please help 20 hours of this crap and counting.

I followed the standard procedure to put an active web page on my desktop. i.e Display properties Desktop Customize Desktop Web Browse select web page Open OK Ok Apply Ok. This results in the web page being displayed but of fixed size (about 5cm by 5cm ) . The usual window buttons maximize ,minimize and exit are missing. Thus I am stuck with a small rather inadequate web page. I have run Microsoft anti spyware ,avg antivirus ,cw shredder etc but to no avail.
