View 9 RepliesI've been unable to find the (assumed) setting that no longer enables me to print any online page without the right margins being cut off...sometimes up to 1.5 inches of the page. So frustrated that I started using Firefox 3 months ago but the freezing after a day of use or using Acrobat drove me away from that browser.

How do I get back to the left side of the Taskbar
Since reinstalling XP my minimized windows are not side by side on the task bar any longer there are two arrows which usually means they are in a list but they aren't, they just stack up on top of each other with only one icon which I have to keep clicking to resume the page I want to view.

View 38 Replies View RelatedInternet Explorer Problem. It was an Add-Ons problem but I can't seem to fix it.When I am in the original window of Internet Explorer and I click on a link that opens a new window. When I want to close the new window it will close down all of Internet Explorer and leave a Blank Page. Then it will want to report the error. It did not used to do this. It seemed to have started happening about the time I upgrade IE and they started the new tabs. I work online and I need it to stay open. I also need to be able to close those extra windows so i don't have to many piling up. It is really bogging down my work.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm getting this perpetual lag issue. Windows folders and internet pages load slowly load slowly, and the mouse cursor responds to clicks when it feels like it. I've checked the mouse, and that's not the problem. I checked Task Manager and downloaded Process Explorer, but I never see more than 15% usage at a time. I've also run AVG for viruses/malware, but nothing comes up. I've had similar problems before, when a piece of hardware died, but so far I can't find any conflicts.

When I launch IE it just hangs attempting to load my homepage (google) but I can press stop and access Options etc.. Firefox and all my other programs that access the internet are working fine but I need IE working too.I can't even access my router control panel via IE which makes me think this is a IE networking configuration problem. I've tried flushing dns but that didn't help.

Nuance has a problem on the install disk with the Visual C++ install required to permit the full program install. Nuance requires download of a fix zip file wihich unzips to several VBS files. On one of my computers, the file options is set to open VBSScript files with Microsoft Based Script Hosting so the VBS file opened OK.On my other XP computer
the file options did not offer the Script Hosting as a choice of a program to open VBS files--only Notepad which is worthless for these files how to get XP adjusted to open VBS files in the Script Hosting vs Notepad when Script Hosting is not offered as one of the program choices in the listing for programs with which to open various types of files? I have SP2 in which a file search identfies the wscript.exe file as present

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a DOS based accounting system that I have used for years and I print to various printers on my network using the "NET USE" command. It has worked just fine until recently when it started taking 10 to 20 minutes to execute a "NET USE LPT1: /DELETE" command or to have a printout send to the printer.It seems that the print job is hanging up in my computer (DEL Inspirion 8200 WinXP) because the DOS application hangs up until it finally prints. I have just testing printing from a Windows application and it does the same thing. The printer that I am trying to print to is attached to a Win2000/Red Hat Linux dual-boot server and does the same thing no matter how the server is booted up.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a dell desktop p4 2.4ghz w/ 1 gig Ram. For the past month or so, I have been having printer freeze-ups. I have a HP1012 hooked driectly via USB, and 3 other networked printers (2 HP and a Brother laserfax printer). The weird parts - it will freeze randomly, and will freeze when printing to any of the printers!! I may go a week between freezes, or a day.
When it freezes, I can not bring up the "PRINTER and FAXES" in windows, and when I click on the printer icon in my time tray, nothing happens. I then must usually cntrl-alt-del to end whatever program was printing, then restart. When I try to restart, I always get an "Explorer can not close" message and must "end now", before it will turn off, and then it will take forever in the "Windows is shutting down" screen before it reboots.
can not get printer to print envelopes in black ink everything else prints fine

View 11 Replies View RelatedI have a LaserJet 1160 printer that is connected by USB (computer has no parallel port). Using Windows XP and have automatic updates turned on. This is a business computer, connected to a network.Early last week I came into find my computer had been restarted after a Windows automatic update. Didn't think to much about it. I went to print and my printer had disappeared from the system. I reinstalled (or tried) the printer and it took 3 or 4 tries. I kept getting errors (0x800703F2) about the DOT4USB driver not being able to be installed. Finally I was able to get the printer installed. It installed by the "Add new printer" option in the printer control panel after the 3rd or 4th time.
So, I have my printer now. Unfortunately it is extremely slow now when printing through Windows. It's like the printer is not getting the information very fast from the computer. This printer has always printed very fast. The status light would blink maybe twice before printing started on a full document. Now it blinks for 20+ seconds to just print a 4 word sentence from Microsoft Word. The only time it prints fast is when I print from inside a VPN connection (we connect to another company to run one program and from inside there is prints very fast).I've tried HP tech support but the printer prints fine when I hook it up to my laptop. I've replaced the USB cable, switched it to several USB ports on the computer, tried to update all of the drivers (that DOT4USB shows as a hardware update in Windows Updater every time but the installation fails). I'm at my wits end with this! I find myself directing 1+ page documents to a network printer outside of my office because the printer is just so slow.
When I go to device manager, under "Universal Serial Bus controller" the first one named "hp LaserJet 1160 series (DOT4USB)" has a yellow exclamation point over it. When I go to properties it says the drivers for this device are not installed (Code 28). Of course, when I try to install the drivers from this area I get a message that it "cannot install this Hardware. An error occurred during the installation of the device. The configuration registry key is invalid." I've googled that for days and can't find any help with it.
