View 3 RepliesI have a Win2k installation that I had to "repair". I'm trying to upgrade to XP on this disk to preserve settings but XP Upgrade disk thinks I have an evaluation copy (not so - repaired 2000 from full version sp4 CD bought from Staples years ago). I run winver.exe and it confirms a licensed copy of 2000 and not an evaluation copy. I'm not sure exactly what brought this 2000 system to a halt. I've been trying to fix it on and off for two weeks now after I installed some polaroid digital camcorder software and everything went south. I have an MSI 865PE Neo2 MB and I'm not sure exactly what happened but I lost 3 gb of 'data' on this Western Digital 80gb harddrive suddenly without having any known viruses/trojans or HD problems. Diagnostics ran and run clean. Lost all network connectivity, USB

Windowsa could not start up because the following file is missing or corrupt:
<Windows root>system32hal.dll
Please re-install a copy of the above file.
Computer became infected with several viruses and now I can't boot up into Windows XP from its original installation on the C partition of my hard drive. It gets to the screen where you sign in and then only the background of the desktop screen appears and it stalls out there.
I can't figure out how to create a current log of the registry file on my C drive with the "Hihackthis" software - I can only get a log of the scan of my D drive registry. I am able to access files on the C partition of my hard drive.
My os is xp prof. when I click on start then shut down it always now goes to end program and the system wont shut down. I have run scan disk,and several syware programs(they find no spyware) but it wont shut down at all
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen I push the button to turn on the computer it lights up and makes a few slight noises as if it is going to boot and then it stalls. Nothing happens. I then turn it off manually and try again. first thing I get is a black screen with an Energy Star logo in the top right hand corner, and Phoenix-Award BIOS v6 .00PG on the left. Then a page of information about cache size, System BIOS shadow status etc. I have to press F2 to continue.
Then I am taken to another black screen which is asking me to select the operating system.
If I press ENTER (or even if I don't after a few seconds) it will then start loading Windows.
I want to download a Driver, and need to select one:
1. Download Nokia USB Driver v3.7.0(for 32-bit versions of Windows)
2. Download Nokia USB Driver v3.7.0(for 64-bit versions of Windows)
How do I check for 32-bit or 64-bit version of Windows XP Prof?
I tried to install IIS Manager from my CD following these steps:
1. Place the Windows XP Professional CD-Rom into your CD-Rom Drive.If the Windows XP installation window pops up just EXIT.
2. Go to 'Add/Remove Windows Components' found in 'Add/Remove Programs' in the 'Control Panel'.
3. Place a tick in the check box for 'Internet Information Services (IIS)' leaving all the default installation settings intact.
Even after this I am not able to install IIS Manager.
I just installed Windows XP Professional.
When I go to START menu. There is no RUN dialog command to activate. Where can I find it manually?
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".
Im installing a brand new pc and I just downloaded all the latest fixes and patches for the OS and the Browser.except one, KB890923. Everytime I try to launch through Windows Update it says it cant do it. SO I attempted to download and run it manually and it states that the program is not a valid Win32 application.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAm I right in thinking that they are both pretty similar except that server has support for multiple processors and extra network related tools and facilities. The reason I ask is that if a piece of software works on Windows 2000 server, is it extremely likely that it will work on Windows 2000 professional too? As a bit of background information: I work for a small company which supplies temperature monitoring equipment which needs to be networked. I've been told that it has been tested on Windows 2000 server but not on Window 2000 professional.

The "x64 Edition is not to be confused with the "64-bit Edition", Besides, just read the "Warning" on that page. Is this x64 edition a 32-bit hardware version of the 64-bit edition? Meaning, you require 32-bit hardware for this version to run, but the software has 64-bit capabilities. Or the x64 XP is like the XP 64-bit edition, but even heavier than the normal 64-bit Itanium sytem. (Because that fellow writes it requires Xeon and all that heavy stuff.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have post about my keyboard and mouse not working for 2 days all over the net with no answers,I guess no one knows.Seems like reformat and clean install. This is my moms pc, Dell 2400 xp home service pack 2 512 ram 2.40 ghz Pentium 4 ht dual processors, 40 gb HDD mostly free.The key board were talking about here is the standard keyboard and mouse shipped with dell products when you don't get upgrades.It will work in set up and bios,also when I ran diagnostics it worked. I do not know how to load drivers,I tried to see if that would work.When windows loads up,no mouse or keyboard to move around. There must be a virus or something hanging it up. If I reload windows my disk is ser pac 1a, will that be ok? Even if I do repair ,it still gets rid of service pack 2,seems I read that.Correct? Can I do this without keyboard functions in windows? should because the only typing is in the setup,correct?

View 5 Replies View RelatedMy Laptop XP Pro with SP3 is totally different to the same on my PC, where I upgraded the Sp's as they came out. So the format is different between the two.I wanted to un-install my laptops version and install the version downloaded from MS, but I don't have the option to do so in Add/Remove on the Laptop as I do on the PC. Its listed, but no option to remove/uninstall.Can I un-install this SP3 in the registry or anyother way or could I just install my version and overwrite the current SP3.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI am struggling with the best options for the LCD screen on my Dell laptop which has a NVIDIA GeForce2 Go video card.The ideal resolution setting for this video card and screen is apparently 1600 x 1200, but that makes things too small for me. So I learned about the dpi setting in Display PropertiesSettingsAdvanced screen. However since this magnifies things for the same resolution, I am not sure why that is better than just using a lower resolution or even what the difference between the 2 options is.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI was hoping to get some opinions on how much improvement you would see if you would increase your RAM from 128MB to 256MB. We have a branch office who is connected via a vpn connection to our remote servers.The connection is 512 Kbps and they are connecting to a published application via Citrix and they also run locally on their systems Excel and a Web based email service.One of the employees decided to add another stick of 128MB RAM to their machine and they say it is significantly faster.They are proposing that they need to have more RAM added for all their systems now.I would imagine that the systems would be a little bit faster but not very noticeably faster.What do you guys believe?
