I have an application which lets me use my mouse to move sub-applications (like a color palette) around the screen. I moved one such application off the screen up or down or left or somewhere and now I can't get it back. If I click the box which should make it appear, the box shows the application is there, but the application doesn't show up.Is there a way to retrueve such an application so it appears on the screen again?
i am having two different problems. 1. When i close an application both of my monitors go black briefly and when they go back on in a cpl of seconds the fonts change 2.When I have multiple applications open i often get--- ie has encountered an error... an has to close. i do not no how to copy the full error message. i tried to copy etc with no louck.
I have been running an AMD 64 bit processor now for some time, but it really never occured to me to look into running a 64 bit operating system. That is, until yesterday.
My friend works for Convergys, a Microsoft call center and sent me a free copy of Windows XP Pro x64. I immediately put this thing on my hard drive and was totally impressed with the speed and stability etc, but then I looked into some of the downsides of running a x64 bit and it made me wonder if it was worth it. (I put my Windows XP Pro x32 back on in the meantime)
First of all, I just want to make sure I understand all of this, before I do commit. And, by the way, I don't want Vista x64!...Anyway, as far as I can understand so far, the x64 will run x32 bit applications, but does that mean every single x32 bit application I ever used will run on it. Will a defrag utility, Winamp, Acoustica CD and Label Maker, things of that sort run?
I cannot get a Hallmark Connections Card Studio program to install on my Win XP Pro computer. I keep receiving and "Application Error" pop-up that says: "CSTUDIO caused a General Protection Fault in module CSTUDIO. EXE at 0006.1176.Choose close. CSTUDIO will close." Then the installation process closes completely. Initially, I thought that it was just too old, as it is a Win 3.1 - 16 bit - program. However, it was successfully installed on another computer connected to my home network, which is also running Win XP Pro. My question, What could be blocking the installation on one computer but not the other?
Am trying to remove an application using Add/Remove Programs - I get a message saying: Failed assertion in Crypt.cpp at line 2104 - error loading signature XML from Sigs.xml.Uninstall failed.Can I uninstall it by deleting the registry entries in Hkey CU/Software and Hkey LM/Software?
I have a small program, written in VB2005, with the standard splash screen provided from VB. When I have the program available through a share directory. I can't run it on another computer. Both computer running Windows XP. It comes up with this error: "Application attempted to perform an operation not allowed by security policy. To grant this application the required permission, contact your system administrator, or use the Microsoft .NET Framework Configuration tool.If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately.
Several months ago I upgraded my notebook PC to Win XP Pro SP2 and everything has been working very well. A few days ago however all of a sudden a lot of my applns (eg Internet Explorer) have become very hit and miss. Sometimes they work (for a while) after a boot but often they hang when I try and run them. When a program hangs I get an application not responding and when I shut down the program the PC pretty much just sits there - ie. I can see the Desktop and icons etc but nothing works, not even Start. If I try Ctl-Alt-Del the PC freezes with a blank (no icons) desktop screen and all I can do is power done the unit.
I'm running up to date Norton AV, Win firewall, Spy Sweeper - and I have scanned with Spybot S&D and Adaware and hijackthis. I have done on-line virus scans (trend micro, ewido, nai) until I'm blue in the face. A few medium risk files were found but nothing has helped fix the problem. Surprisingly, if I boot into Safe Mode IE etc seems to be working perfectly so it must be something (driver?) that is loading and conflicting in normal mode. BTW - when I try to run sfc /scannow in normal mode the program closes by it self half way through the scan. If I try to run sfc /scannow in safe mode I get a rpc server (whatever that is) is unavailable. Sure don't want to have to reload Win XP and all my applns and I'm hoping that if everything essentially works OK in safe mode, then I can fix whatever is screwing up in normal mode.
Xp sp2. WHen my system slows, I check TaskMgr. The main thing i notice, is that there are 6 or 7 seven tasks named svchost.exe. Is this normal? What does svchost.exe do?
The offending program AcroRd32.exe (acrobat reader) hangs the logoff process if the user has a pdf open inside a webpage.Previously, I used a logoff script to "kill.exe" the AcroRd32.exe which would then allow the machine to finish the logoff process. In the recent past, a patch (not sure which one).. has changed the logoff process to start after all the users applications have closed.I was investigating using the "Auto Endtask" registry options to killthe application, but this does not seem to function.
"Application Data" is taking up about 600MB total across all the users on my computer.
Its located: C:Documents and Settings*user name*Application Data
So basically, what is it? What's it do? Is it OK to delete? Etc.

While attempting to Remove an application, receieved a message with the heading: Windows O/OS Installation & the Message:
"Warning: Windows XP Service Pack 2 is not installed on your PC.This Service Pack is required. Please install Service Pack 2 as soon as possible. Service Packs may be obtained via Windows Update"
My PC would NOT let me complete the Removal.

When I open certain programs, for example the preferances program for my printer, the window is too small and I can't read everything in there, and it does not have a maximize box to make it larger. how can I fix this? Is this a windows problem or an application problem?

I am trying to load my Printmaster Platinum 7.0 or 8.0 and neighter will load. I have been trying to get this fixed for over 3 weeks. Nothing I have found will work.
I get random application hang up. I can't end the program. The restart command will not respond. I must push the main button until the system shuts down. The system starts again without difficulty.The Windows XP Event Viewer shows no system errors. In the application window it simply shows Application Hang with the Event 1001/1002 combination. I can't seem to find any really useful information on these event codes. The problem has become a daily occurrence.
I use windows XP professional SP2. After open any program it don't show on taskbar. If I minimize program I can not see program on taskbar. I must use ALt+Tab for show my program. How I fix this problem.
I downloaded it ran it and rebooted but I am still having the same issue. I am trying to install a program and still get This is not a valid win32 application. All the EXE Icons look like the old MS Dos Icon's. I am currently scanning the machine but am most of the way through and no viruses have been found.
This is my first post so I'm likely to appear stupid. I'm of average computer competence but love the things. Short story is this:I have an accounting program in which I have data files for each year of my business. These have been successfully backed up for years on CD and now JumpDrive, and stored on the desktop with a shortcut for easy access.I downloaded and installed SP2. Now when trying to open a file, I get the message C:XXXXXXXXX is not a valid Win32 application. It always was before so what changed?I cannot back up my current files because that is the name I've always used. The computer doesn't recognize the name as valid so I have no security. An ancillary problem is that years ago, my adorable husband somehow associated my old data file to be opened with MusicMatch. (We don't even discuss this.) I managed a workaround so that I got the files to open with their program application even though I could never change the icon from MusciMatch. No harm no foul. No longer. Post SP2, the danged thing went back to opening MusicMatch, ignoring my old workaround. Messing with it for hours got it to where I'm now getting the invalid file messagel.
I cannot access the C drive, get the above error message. Also, when doing a right click "OPEN" and "EXPLORE" are not written correcly, I can only see some weird characters. Could it be a virus?
