I am going to discard a computer that contains Windows 98. I want to download pictures from the Windows 98 by floppy disk to a computer with Windows XP to "my pictures". I have no trouble downloading the pictures to the floppies. The XP system does have a floppy drive. Step by step how do I load the pictures into the XP system? As a new member this is my first time to contact you. Sure hope I have followed all the rules.

View 14 Replies View RelatedMy W2K program is not a boot disk version, so you need to make a series of four (4) boot flopies. I need to get to the "REPAIR" option presumably located on one of the four floppies I made- question is, where is it located and how do I get to it?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI want to put the pictures that I saved from the My Pictures folder back to the My Pictures folder. I have set one of them as the new desktop background. (It was before the format).I have typed in "Export Pictures from CD to My Pictures folder" without the quotes and I get a list of links pertaining to CD recording errors and other things like that. I did right click on a picture in Drive E (my CD-RW) just to see what would come up and I noticed that on the Send To menu that these pictures can be sent to the desktop.
View 2 Replies View RelatedLately, my XP has been freezing when I try to save pictures off the web. I never had this problem before. I tried using different folders in ''My Pictures'' and desktop but the result is the same. When I use Task Manager to view the performance, CPU usage shoots up to 100% while trying to save and doesn't come down. I should say that I have been using IE 7.0 beta for almost 3 months but it never gave me a problem before. I do not detect any other problems with the computer and am able to surf the net same as before. I just can't save the pictures.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI need to know how to save the pictures in the My Pictures folder to CD. I am going to format and reinstall XP Home and if I do, I will lose these pictures unless I save them.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have taken a series of pictures on different days and downloaded them into a folder in My Pictures. I need to put them in a sequence so I right clicked each picture and re-named it as follows: 001jpg, 002jpg and so on for 100 pictures. In view, I selected arrange icons by modified and all the pictures moved to the sequence I wanted. All is well and good until I copied the folder to a CD. All the pictures reverted to their original sequence instead of the sequence I put them in.
How can I copy the folder with the pictures in the sequence I put them in? Whenever I open the picture file to look at that folder, they are always in the sequnce I put them in
I have a 3 year old Compaq Evo n1015v which has recently stopped booting up. I was installing a mouse driver and it simply rebooted whilst it was doing it, now it gets to the Windows loading screen and cuts out with a blue screen of death, then reattempts booting up. If I try loading it up in safe mode it lists the .dlls it's loading then cuts out and reboots after vax347b.sys (for Alcohol 120% I believe). Nothing such as selecting the 'last known good configuration' option works, this includes safe mode and all of that. In addition my cd drive will only read dvds and not cds for some reason, so using my XP cd is out of the question. Basically the last resort seems to be the XP boot floppies, but that gets to disk 3 and cuts out when loading up the 'kernel debugger'. So I'm out of ideas! Wiping the HD is also not an option as there is really important stuff on there including uni work that I can't afford to lose.
Has anyone had similar problems with the boot disks, or does anyone else have any ideas? It has been suggested on other forums to burn a copy of XP to dvd, but I don't think I know anyone with a dvd burner (not to mention the fact that I have no idea how to get a burnable copy of XP). The recovery console would help to get rid of the driver I think is causing the problem, and to run chkdsk, but I'm struggling to work out how I'm going to get to it. Basically if anyone has any tips at all I'd be delighted!
I am using an old Dell with XP and Internet Explorer 7. When previewing some images I have stored in My Pictures, I find when using the 'previous' and 'next' buttons I am able to pull up the next or previous pictures as I should. But when I e-mail an image to myself and then use the 'next' or 'previous' buttons, I begin to get images from web sites I have recently visited even if it is just my home page. While scanning my home page, for instance, I collect dozens of images in a matter of minutes.The only change I have made recently is a download of info from a digital camera disc to enable me to store pictures from my new camera.
I did a system restore to a couple of days before that download but I'm still copying dots, dashes, logos and pictures or frames from videos.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI want to download Microsoft's antispyware beta. But I've never downloaded anything before.I've started a few but I get confused when I'm suppose to click on "run" or "save", so I end up canceling. I'm pretty new to all this computer stuff but I was able to figure out that I can probably do either one. What I need to know are the steps to take for both. I hope I'm making sense. If not I'll try again.
