Going crazy trying to back up my Quicken 2004 files to CD-RW. The instructions for doing this from Intuit do not work. I have the latest patch which is release3. It claims that the built in CD burner program in XP will open if I click on file then backup. Nothing happens. Where is the built in Cd burner program? Dell was no help as was Quicken.
View 8 RepliesUpon starting Quicken 2004 Basic, I got a notification that I had to reinstall Quicken,Upon starting an uninstall of Quicken 2004, I got an Error 1316.A network error occurred while attempting to read from the file C:WINDOWSInstallerQuicken 2004.msl. I have used Windows install clean up, and have run a registry cleaner. I also have gone into the registry, and deleted anything pertaining to Quicken. No matter what I try, Quicken won't reinstall, because I can't uninstall the previous Quicken.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have hit another wall. Using W2K-Pro I installed VirtualPC 2004-SP1. I then installed DOS 6.22.I began the win3.1 install and at the end of the second disk when it launches win3.1-Setup and asks for a Name and Company the Virtual Machine hangs. No mouse, no blinking cursor.I can right-Alt to shut down the VM. OK, so I though it might be the USB mouse and keyboard so I shut it all down and plugged in a M$oft PS/2 mouse and keyboard. Same problem with the win3.1 install. Not to be beaten, I went to another PC also running W2K-Pro. Exact same issue with win3.1. Not be be beaten again, again I installed VPC-2004 on an XP-Pro, damn me, same again at the end of the win3.1 second diskette. I have tried installing DOS and win3.1 onto a 486 machine and it installs fine so I doubt it is a faulty diskette.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI installed Window XP upgrade and didn't realize that it would disable my Norton antivirus 2004. After installation, Windows informed me that Norton would have to be reinstalled. I tried reinstalling it, but couldn't until the disabled one was uninstalled. When I tried to uninstall it, there were some files that the uninstall program couldn't find, so the uninstall failed. I need to know how I can get the disabled one off my system so that I can reinstall Norton again.

View 3 Replies View Relatedafter messing around with several backup programs, Paragon has proved to be the most practical HOWEVER when I select to backup my C partition it wants to back up over 8 GIGS of data. Converting gig to meg and seeing as CD's can hold only 700mb that's about fifteen CD's that I'm going to have to use! I don't even think that there's a Flash drive large enough to back up what these recovery programs want to back up.I've upgraded and patched .net up to 3.5 (1.1 is broken for some reason). I've upgraded and patched XP Home to service pack 2 and have upgraded and patched IE to release 7.I have various utitlity and virus scanner programs on my system but doing an file observation through Advanced System Care, I have nowhere near 9 gigs of data that I need to back up.So the only thing I can think is that Paragon is trying to back all the formated trash data from the umpteen system formats that I've done.I've used several wipers and asked Paragon to exclude auxilary files but still insists that I have close to 9 gigs of data to back up?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI bought a full copy of Windows XP with SP2 included to install on my Intel Mac. Since it was a fairly expensive piece of software, I wish to protect this investment by creating a backup copy of the installation CD, in case anything should occur that damages the one that I bought. How can I do this so that the backup CD will install properly? I know very little about images and creating bootable discs, so any guidance would be very much appreciated. One problem that I know I wish to avoid: a fellow that I asked at a computer store said that he had tried but failed, finding that the new copy would not accept the serial number once he had installed it.

What type of program is it that runs on-line?
I was trying to backup the registry of my Windows XP Home edition desktop, and I was going to use the program ERDNT. Mistakenly, I copied the folder over from my Vista laptop, forgetting that it carried backups of my Vista registry. So I launched the program, and mistakenly, restored my Vista registry backup onto my XP computer. I panicked, and tried doing a system restore right after. Now, everytime the computer starts up I get an error saying that msisadrv.sys is missing or corrupt. What can I do?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWell like alot of people I made the mistake of selecting safeboot in the boot.ini file in the msconfig file after my comp got a virus and would not boot into safemode. The hard drive is in two partitions: the C drive used to contain windows, and the D drive which has the data i am trying to save. I don't have a Windows XP disc because it was already on the comp when i bought it. I have attempted to restore the windows files with Bart PE bootup image disc but it wiped out Windows XP completely from the C drive in the process, but the Data drive is still showing up with all its files intact.

And don't think you can go back to WMP9, it also seems that my system restore point created before the upgrade mysteriously fails to work.

my computer wont connect to the internet, some files wont work and it all started after i finished scanning with mcafee
