I'm running a Dell Latitude D500 w/XP Pro and have installed SP. Now, everytime I boot I get this balloon that tells me my computer may be at risk. The thing is, it isn't. And if it was, I hate the balloons along with others that tell me other things.The question, how do I shut that thing off? I can't find it anywhere in the Windows Security Alert section or Security Alerts section. Does anyone of you pros know how?
i really need somIm a gamer, by nature, i have what id like to think of as a high spec PC. It has Windows XP Proffesional, SP2. I keep it very clean, anyway enuff of my sadness.Jus recently i was hit by a virus. AVG free, finally cleaned it up, and now im receiving Windows Security Alerts. The exact message is "To help protect your computer, Your registry has to be fixed. To resolve theis problem, obtain the latest update." only trouble is, i click accept, it downloads this program called System Registry Cleaner 2.4, and then i have to pay for it before i can use it. Unfortunately it doesnt accept solo, so i went ahead and purchased a registry cleaner from somewhere else.
Is there any Policy setting for this? We are running a NetWare network,and all student clients are complaining since the Windows Security Center does not recognize F-Secure 5.43.The really strange thing is the Security Center recognized it on your all-norwegian image,this "error" appeared only after we decided to go for Multi-language(English first then norwegian on top)
It appears I have gotten 3 viruses and am having trouble getting rid of them. The symptoms seem to be a much slower computer. Also, Internet Explorer occassionally opens trying to go to an antispyware website. Also I have a yellow triangle in the bottom corner telling me security alerts and to Download antispyware.The virus names are PSW.X-Vir, Trojan-Spy.Win32@mx, and Networm-i.virus@fp.
I am currently trying to hook up my dell latitude cpx to my tv to use it as my monitor. It has an S-Video out port, and my tv has RCA ports only, so i purchased a cable which is s-video to an rca connector for my video in. Well when I boot up my laptop, when i get to the welcome screen in xp, it starts to display on my tv, but then about 5 to 10 seconds after that it flickers and the picture goes away.Ive tried everything in the display settings and also enabled everything in my BOIS, with no luck.
I have been given a named above Dell, It runs very very slow OS is XP Home, now it has a system memory 128MB Internal cache 256KB video memory 2.5MB H/Drive 6495 MB Is there away I can adjust the 300 mhz to go either 450 or 500? If so can someone guide me on how please. What happens is it will load to windows desktop in 90 seconds when I try to access from Start control panel it takes for ever to load.
While building up a new computer I go into Security Center to make some configuration changes. The resource "Change the way Security Center alerts me" is available at this time. Some time later during the building process I go back into Security Center and find that resource is no longer available. It is greyed out.
I recently bought a Dell Latitude D600 laptop. My issue is Wireless is not working, even i cannot see the wireless icon which use to showup in the system tray.I can successfully connect to internet using LAN Cable, so i am sure the network is active but some issue with the wireless.
I have a laptop(dell latitude cpi) my kid entered a password and now I can't access windows. Every time I turn it on a message comes on saying:This computer system#xxxxx is protected by a password authentication system you can not access the data without the correct password Please type in the primary or administrator password. My kid does not remember what password he used. Does any body Knows how to remove the password since I can not access the bios either?
I dont know if this is the right place to put this question, but anyway: I have a brand new Dell Latitude. I think that Windows XP servicepack 2 is making some problem. The bigger problem is that I cant uninstall it. I have tried through Control Panel, and the tips Microsoft gives themselves. I guess a problem is that it is preinstalled on the computer. I have reinstalled the computer, but it is still ServicePack 2.
If this has been addressed in the forums; then apologies all around. I have a Dell Latitude L400. The HDD has been low level formatted and is clean, I also know it to be fully operational, It won't boot from the USB port, so there is no hope of loading XP back onto it through a usb dvd drive. I have read that there is a docking port adapter for this thing, but the cost of finding one; well, you do the math. I have tried repeatedly to 'preload' DOS or even XP to no avail. Call it Karma or stupidity, but I simply can not find a definitive answer as to how to get anything onto the laptop drive stable enough to get Xp to load normally. Forget the preloading from another computer because all it does is 'windows' logo and then blue screen, so that's out. and no amount of bios jocky-ing is going to do it either. And just to be redundant, this isn't a netbook or current technology that recognizes booting from the usb port, so we can skip that too.
I currently own an older dell latitude cpx laptop, its fairly outdated, i know but im currently running it off of my wireless router, i have a d-link wireless-g adapter in my pcmcia slot, but when i boot my laptop with it, i get blue screen errors, but if unplug it and boot it up then plug in my adapter, it works perfect, i know its not a big deal to just plug it n after i boot up but i was wondering.
The instruction at "0x5ba06ela" referenced memory at "0x5ba06ela". The required data was not placed into memory because of an I/O error status of "0xc000009c".The laptop is slower than normal. Everything else seems to work apart from the internet and msn messenger, which will load up to begin with, but is slow, but then when something is typed into google or i put my information into msn messenger to log on it freezes and says they are not responding to send error report.
I have a Dell Latitude c800 XP Laptop. The touchpad is too sensitive, I have the sound set at maxium volume some videos/programs are good at maximum volume but others I can bearly hear.

I reformatted the hard drive and tried to install XP home Edition for my Latitude D600, but keep getting different error messages, I thought it was a faulty operating system disk, but I've tried three different disks.This is not the first time I've reformatted desktops and laptops.
What other security (protection from virus and spyware) system do I need in addition to the already built in Windows firewall?Currently I have a Microsoft Windows XP, Home Edition, 2002 version, service pack 3, intel, celeron, CPU 2.20 GHz, 2.00 of RAM.
I have been looking around on computer looking for IIS for a long time and i still cant find it,I have Windows XP Home edition sp3, its not in services.msc or in the admin section of the control panel.

I do not have an "Internet Connection Sharing" section when I go into the wireless network selection properties, and then click on advanced. All that is showing up is the windows firewall. I am using a Linksys Wireless G PCI network adaptor. I am on Windows XP, professional, 2002, SP2. Someone I know has the same system, but it is the media center edition and it has the ICS section under the advanced tab... I'm not sure if the media center edition has anything to do with it or not. Am I missing a driver? Is there anything that I can do about this?
