View 1 RepliesIs there some place that I can search to see if windows files/commands are legitimate? I have Zone Alarm and it has programs on it trying to access the Internet that I do not recognize. Another one was: Microsoft Out of Bounds. I have Windows XP Home Edition with all updates.I have ZoneAlarm free and McAffee AntiVirus.Nothing has been detected.

My question is how can i stop F1 from running help, is there some windows service that i can turn off permanently? So that the F1 key means nothing? Replacing the keyboard is not an option for me at this time!

Unable to run iTunes, a problem which started at the same time. The iTunes error originally request chdisk, which I did, problem persisted. Installed new iTunes version and did System Restore to one day prior to problem. Now iTunes simply crashes when I attempt to start it. I tried running the Desktop.ini reset command, no change due to that either. I am running XP Home with multiple users.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen i boot my windows xp home edition machine, the normal login screen appears, but not all of the users and their icons show up One user and the guest user doesn't display...it is also in a lower resolution, so that may be why the other users don't show up, because there isn't enough room. Even when i click on my user, the first one listed, nothing happens. It doesn't log on, so I have to press Ctrl+Alt+Del twice to get the alternative login screen to appear...and then when i click OK for my user, it logs in. I would like to have it back to the original state of the first login screen...and not have to go through the steps of the other screen. Has anybody ever experienced this before?

It seems to start up fine, and it gets to both screens where it says, "Windows 2000 is starting up," and on the second one, it seems to get done then it goes to a blue screen for a very split second, and restarts automatically, and does this, Over and over.

I go to Run and type CMD enter. You get the dos window right?
Ok, now I type ipconfig. I get a message saying 'ipconfig is not
recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch
file.'.
So I try several other commands and all give me the same error message

View 6 Replies View RelatedMy computer totally stops functioning and a gray screen appears saying: “***Hardware malfunction*** Contact hardware vendor for support *** system has halted ***� I put this computer together and had no problems until I installed XP. When it locks it also makes whatever sound it had when it locks. Is there a way to see what is causing the lock? I’ve tried the troubleshooting FAQ on the software and got nowhere. When it locks it locks I’ve found no way to continue other then killing the power to the motherboard and restarting. There is no rhyme or reason to the lock no common timing or software or hardware. This is the second tine sending this, It locked last time.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm having some real issues with my Dell XPS 400 and I'm desperately seeking help. I'm running WinXP Pro and this pc is only about 16 months old. It has the original factory installed ram (1 gig) a 320 gig hard drive and the processor is an Intel ViiV. I have been getting a blue error screen with Hardware Malfunction Call your Hardware Vendor for Support Parity Check Memory Parity Error System was halted that lasted for a few hours. I had to hold the power button in for several seconds each time to shut it down. I ran both the Microsoft Windows Memory Diagnostic tests, as well as the Memtest 86,each several times. The results were always "no memory errors". I attempted a few times, unsucessfully, using the F11 key to reach the Acronis recovery partition. I booted using my XP disk but was unable to re-install. Windows would begin to load and then the blue screen with the same error message would occur. Finally, I was able to access the Acronis recovery manager and restore my pc but on reboot it began to run ChkDsk. Now it keeps rebooting and running a new disk check over and over and over.I have tried to cancel the ChkDsk using the keyboard but it keeps running. I'm at a loss, as to what else, if anything I can do, (besides ripping my hair out by the roots)

View 8 Replies View RelatedCan I somehow save commonly used commands? For example, I have problems with my printer about 1/3 of the time. Microsoft has the fix HERE (Method D), and I want to save that run command into a dropdown menu or something (I've already saved the notepad file to the desktop) so that I don't have to look it up all the time. Is that possible? I know it will be there when I open it, IF I haven't used any other run commands, but I want to make sure it's always available without having to look it up.
