I'm helping to create a website for my boss. I am copy/pasting descriptions of products, but I need to replace all the bullet points manually with <il>. It's super time consuming and I'd like to find a quicker way to complete this project. Weekends are for comic book reading and video game playing! Poop on working weekends! Does anyone here know how I can do a "Find and Replace"?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a curious problem with my "System Restoration". I am running XP Pro on an IBM ThinkPad Z60t. When I go into the program, it has many different restoration points that were automatically set by the program (Check Points). It also reflects the restoration points that I have set manually. Now heres my problem: No matter which of the restoration points I choose, the computer the computer will go through all the steps necessary to restore, including the restart. After the restart and after the whole Desktop has been replaced, a window comes up and it says this: Restoration incomplete, Your computer cannot be restored to: (date&time). No changes have been made to your computer. Choose another restoration point. But, no mater which one I choose, the same thing happens again. I have dedicated the maximum disk space for System Restoration, (12%)and have checked all the settingsb but still can't find the problem

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a Dell XPS computer with Windows XP SP3. Just yesterday it started acting up by when I went to shut it down (and it does this every time now) it says "ending program "sprtcmd.exe" , then unable to end program, so I have to end manually EVERY DARN TIME. This just started with shut down last nite. I did a system restore and that fixed it, BUT then my McCaffee Antivirus program said it can not load due to an error, basically the antivirus program got all screwed up, so I UN-DID the restore. Now the antivirus works well but the stupid "sprtcmd.exe" problem is back! So I did that about 5 times picking different System Restore points each time and for some reason the McCafee screws up, so I had to undo each one.

View 23 Replies View RelatedI have a game that I play sometimes. I downloaded it from a very reliable site as I have 3 or 4 other games from the same site that have always worked fine. On this particular game, every once and a while it will freeze up on me and the only way to get out is to manually turn off my pc and then turn it back on again. When I turn it back on my pc does some kind of a scan and tells me that the NTFS volume is dirty. I have never seen this term used before. I am running a Dell with Windows XP sp2. What is a NTFS volume? What does this mean and what do I need to do? I have Avast antivirus and Armor 2 Net firewall and 2 different antispyware programs running.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWithout using a third party program, does the XP system itself offer a quick way to see where my start up originate from, since msconfig startups only gives most of the line but not all, plus I cannot manually copy those lines to the run box to see where they go.

I understand that it was for her own protection as she can't execute any viruses, but it needs to be disabled to allow her to upgrade her flash player. I know the work around is to download the standalone file and manually remove the .pdf but would prefer to nip the problem in the bud.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently baught a used machine that came with a working clean cut legal copy of Windows XP. Needless to say I was thrilled, but I machine to use as a Linux file server, but this Windows XP installation was too valuable for me to simply discard. I took out the hard drive and placed it another computer. The computer boots windows XP, then 2 seconds later it blue screens and reboots (much too quickly for me to read the error message)
I'm thinking here, the obvious problem is that I took a Windows XP installation and changed all the hardware on it and it didn't have the drivers for it. I attempted to run the recovery console from a Windows XP installation disc and it asked me for the administrator password. The drivers are on the XP disc somewhere, I would like to know how to install them manually (using a Linux boot disc to move files from the XP installation disc to the hard drive)
I downloaded a bunch of spyware by mistake this morning from a link my friend gave to me, he was unaware as well. I was able to get rid of the majority of it, but there are a few things in my registry i am unable to delete, i used spy bot to get rid of most of the spy ware but for some reason it is not detecting the rest, also ad aware detects it but is unable to remove it since it is running in the background, i am unable to find the processs from task manager and end it so i cant delete it from the registry manually. What it is doing is bascially spamming pop ups on my pc every so often, here are the suspected names of the infections : mpise.dll , h22o0cf3ef2.dll , h62o0gf3e62.dll.
View 14 Replies View RelatedThe problem is that each time I turn the pc on, if I want to access the internet, I must right click on My Computer, then Manage and then Service and Applications and then Double Click DHCP Client. It is set for Autostart but something is wrong because I have to manually start it up. I did a quick check on other items that had no status and they seem to be in this file: 'System32svchost.exe -k netscvs'. The tech guy from my ISP told me that it could be a problem with my XP disc? I can't see how. When my friend installed this hardware he also installed an extra hard drive, around 6 gig for things I might want on a backup incase something happens to my main hard drive. He formatted both hard drives and put Windows 98 on the main drive, not aware that you could do a clean install with XP.Now when my computer starts up I have to choose either Windows XP Home or Windows if I choose Windows nothing happens. Just a blinking cursor. My main concern right now is that I have to manuallly start up the DHCP Client if I want to go online.I went into the BIOS looking for answers.
