I use firefox and down at bottom of screen just above taskbar there is another bar and when you put a url in the address bar up on top well in this bar above the task bar it says searching for and while it says this it shows that other urls are being searched at the same time. Way to the right of this is the little box with the green marks that show how fast it is loading. Well it takes forever to load a web page. For example the last time i just searched for a web page these came up---looking up wrapper. ign.com, looking up atax.ign.com, looking up ads.ign. com. I put one of these into google and there is something about squid analysis report generator which apparently tells the whole world where i go on the web.
I installed CD Slide Generator from Tweak PowerToys for XP.Now I can't find it, plus I can't find where there might be a newsgroup to ask this question
On my PC I can boot to an upgraded XP (which was 2000 and is on c:winnt) and a new installation of XP (on c:windows). I'm having trouble with the XP installation (that was upgraded from 2000) and I want to delete it. Do I only need to delete the c:winnt directory and the entry from the boot manager?
I don't want to refotmat the drive because I have lots of personal stuff scattered everywhere and I don't want to do a backup.The new XP installation is working great, and I want to keep it. And I want to erase the old installation since it was Windows 2000 which I upgraded to XP.
Got a problem here, how do I adjust what programs I want to start when I boot my computer.I find myself disabling at least 8 programs before I start my normal CPU functions, because they eat away at my memory.
Apparently I've picked up Exploit Cyber-search.biz through a security hole of some sort. I found this out after running the Bazooka scanner on my machine. It seems to have hijacked my browser(IE6) also because I had to do a System Restore back one week to be able to get to here. I run Avast version 4.7 Home Edition as my virus protection, and I use the Comodo Firewall software version 2.3.5.62 both of which are fully updated and running fine.My browser operates fine at this moment after doing the System Restore but I'm eager to rid myself of whatever I picked up here.
For some unknow reason the clock time display in the lower right hand corner of the screen has 'VIRUS ALERT!' connected to the time. How do I get rid of it. I have run several different virus screening programs (Bit Defender, Norton System Works) and all say that I have no viruses contaminating my computer?
When I run Norton Win Doctor within Norton Systemworks I get the following message: "C:Program FilesCommon FilesInstallShieldProfessionalRun Time701Intel 32Dot Net Installer.exe can not access a necessary file, mscoree.dll. what the message means and how do I find/install the missing file? I am running XP Pro.
For the last two weeks my Dell (Presario 4600) is crashing on me daily with the following order:I hear quickly: one click from the tower. then a whirring noise like a CD ROM or DVD trying to start, then another click, then the computer freezes, and I have to manually turn it off. When I run my Dell Crash Analysis Tool it tells me there is a problem with the following: Crash Analysis Tool Scan Results Category: Application Drivers Driver Manufacturer tfsnifs.sys TFS Technology. Thing is..... I don't even know what this is or what program it is associated with.
I need to install the analysis toolpak, but Excel came preinstalled on my machine and I do not have an installation Cd and I cannot find the analysis32.xll file anywher on my computer.
Ignore the siggie info; the problem is on a separate computer, a Compax laptop. There is 256MB physical memory and 2GB virtual memory. The C: disk has heaps of room on it. It has Avast AV, Spybot, Adaware and Spyware Blaster and uses the XP firewall. All are up to date and all come up clean when checked. I do a monthly defrag and have Easy Cleaner and empty unnecessary files and surplus registry entries monthly. Despite all this it seems to run abnormally slowly, particularly when bringing up onboard stuff like OE, IE and other programs. Downloading internet sites seem pretty reasonable.
Frequent crashes, STOP: Ox0000000A, with physical memory dump to file Mini<date>.dmp in the C:WINNTMinidump folder. What tools are available for analyzing these dumpfiles, since my event log file is not providing information?
I was online watching a Camtasia presentation when my laptop, an hp pavilion ze5500, suddenly crashed and a blue screen was thrown up. I've gotten the blue screen multiple times in the past 24 hours. One of the blue screen error messages was "kernel data inpage error".I just downloaded and ran Analysis Diagnostic for Windows XP and it returned this warning: THE SYSTEM RESTORE HELPER RETURNED A WARNING CODE hr=0x6 what this code means? What I need to do to repair my computer?
I am analyzing the data I have just collected from a survey, but encounter some problems from the use of MS Excel.for example:there is a set containing seven elements {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}. It is trivial that the Q1 is 2, while Q3 is 6, but MS Excel has got Q1=2.5, Q3=5.5. (The result can be gained by using Quartile Function)Can you explain why? I don't know if my MS Excel is not working properly?Q1 = lower quartile, while Q3 = upper quartile
I have tried to repair my XP but during the process it hangs at 35 minutes. After searching around for ages I do understand it is some sort of hardware problem. I accessed my BIOS and disabled hardware such as audio, usb legacy mode etc. I have been through the log and cannot work out what is wrong as the last bit the install was doing says it was completed successfully. I know one option is to copy the data from the HD and do a clean install however there are some files that were saved within the programmes itself and there is a crucial set of bookmarks I require which I did not export from the browser.
In a previous post, I mentioned that my network adapter is missing in action after a reinstall of XP on top of an existing Xp installation. I have been unable to identify my Mobo so that I can rectify this issue.Heres where I am today: Using system analysis software recommended on this site, I discover that my Mobo chipset is manufactured by Viathe Via VT8367-8235.Unfortunately, the specific board manufacturer is not apparent. (I assume that Via sells chipsets to many potential board manufacturers.)So I go to Vias web sight. I assume they actually do MoBos as well as chipsets. My board isnt specifically listed there.
I want to do some sort of auditing of our network with regards to what files have been deleted / moved / added over a given period.Can I somehow keep a synchronised copy on another server and then once a week run a job to synchronise the two folders (one way synchronisation from Server1 to Server2- not vice versa). I would at the same time like to get a report showing what changed from one week to the other, clear as mud.
I downloaded windows live for a particular project I am working but everytime I exit the program my computer reboots and when it starts up the microsoft error report box pops up.
Just wondering if anyone knows why hijackthis reports many services as missing? When they are loaded and present (as far as I can tell) This is Windows XP x64
Logfile of HijackThis v1.99.1 , Scan saved at 7:03:25 AM, on 4/26/2007, Platform: Windows 2003 SP2 (WinNT 5.02.3790) , MSIE: Internet Explorer v6.00 SP1 (6.00.3790.1830)
I am a little stumped by this error that came into Tech Support. One of our end users emailed us and stated that he keeps getting windows errors and then of course XP prepares a Error Report to send to Microsoft .I have done an extensive search about the problem on the internet and find this issue a lot. I have just never seen a successful resolution. Some say it is video driver issues, some say spyware. I am not going to sit and guess as what it is. I figured I would ask everyone here at this board and see what I came up with.
Tonight I scanned my HDD using CHKDSK /r to rectify any errors which I'm sure are present. When it ended after about 2 hours, the result flashed on the screen SO fast and proceeded to reboot. I can't seem to find the report anywhere in the computer!! Does anyone know the log-file name and how and where to find this report (log file)? I'm using Windows XP Home (with SP2).
I am running XP Home. When I go to windows explorer every thing works OK with the exception of when I click on the history folder. Then I get an error message asking if I want to send the error to Microsoft. I have tried to click �send� and the whole PC freezes until I hit control-alt-delete and hit end task. I have run anti virus and spyware with no negative results.
On Saturday I got the first of these. I was on the internet, pressed the back key and the computer shut down without warning of any kind. It was slow to boot back up which it did of its own accord. Then displayed this message, "The system has recovered from a serious error."
I am not a newb with windows XP SP2 but this is starting to really annoy me First Generic Host Prosses 32 has an error and asks me to send a error report then My sound cuts out and when i go into Sounds and Audio Devices my soundcard isent there it says i have none and i to reboot This just started happening and its a clean install of windows.
I need to create a report of all documents and their properties. For example, I want to make a file that lists all of the Word documents on my system, when each was created, when each was last accessed.
I dragged a number of files to my cd-rw disk, using windows disk copying/burning utility. I can access them just fine, but when I use properties to see how much space I have left on the CD It shows the cd almost empty yet one file alone is more than 6 mbs in size. It seems I am getting a false reading. Does anyone know why or what I can do about it.
Is this possible without excessive expense?I'm thinking of changing my aged Asus A7V266E m/b to a more up-to-date model, BUT want to use existing processor (AMD Athlon 1800+11.5 x 133, Socket A) and graphics card (NVidea GeForce 2 MX400) with existing memory 1 x 256, 1 x 512 DDR SDRAM) - i.e not spend anything more except the board.Belarc report on existing system is below.
Recently , even after a morning start up, IE7 fails to view and an error box pops ups. The one that asks you if you want to send an error report. If I restart again it's 50/50 to get to see IE7 working. Not sure if this is related, but in the evnet viewer I've noticed event ID's 1000 & 1001 are listed in the same times that this happens
My automatic updater keeps telling me I need to install the latest security update for Net Framework 1.1. I've tried a number of times and always get a failure report. The logs say Ox643 is the error code. Looking this up on the MS site was no help. Any ideas about how to get past this? I really don't need Net Framework ( I think), so would un-installing it be an option to remove the nuisance reminders about updating it?
Booted my computer this morning and had two error messages; send a report to Microsoft (which usually never do) then rebooted. Now I have lost my active desk top and can not re-activate. Do I have a virus?
