Add/remove Programme Has Not Removed McAfee Completely

Aug 20, 2007

I have a Dell Inspiron 6400 less than a year old. It came installed with McAfee. When the subscription ended I removed it and installed AVG. Apparently the add/remove programme has not removed McAfee completely and it is now conflicting with AVG giving me start up freezing.

Programs Taking Much Memory / Unable To Play Winamp ?

Jan 16, 2008

I know, I know...it seems as if everywhere you look, someone has a different opinion on this.I'm running an older system Dell Dimension 4550 Pentium 4 XP Home SP2 1GB Ram...2.4Ghz...533 MHz Front Side Bus...I recently installed a 400 GB HD to act as my slave drive. I added a 4GB partition, dedicated to the paging file. At this point, I have my Master Drive's (C) paging file set to 2MB-50MB; the Slave Drive (D) has no paging file and the partition on the Slave (G) is set to 1536MB-3800MB.

The biggest memory hog is Firefox, which gets to around 200,000k if I let it. Spyware Terminator runs at about 50,000k, as does Thunderbird.Then, I have several programs that run in the 30,000k range (FeedDemon, Replay AV, etc).The rest (around 20 programs are fairly low users).What I'm trying to accomplish is, getting that little bit of extra performance so that when I'm running a program like Winamp and enjoying music, I don't get stutters in the performance when I open a browser or execute a function.

Completely Remove "index.dat"

Oct 13, 2003

Index.dat files are files impossible to delete under windows, and it stores all the information of your surfing history, you can be followed through these dangerous files. and even if you delete your cookies and your history, these index.dat files remain there and become bigger and bigger, their original size is 16kb but they can reach up until 600kb. to preserve your privacy I found a way to delete them.. it's impossible to do in windows thus you have to reboot your computer then press F8 or F5 for advanced boot options; then choose "safe mode with command prompt; log in as administrator and then from there you can delete them freely without windows preventing it.

Formatting MY HD Completely

Mar 8, 2006

My pc is running a bit slow lately, got lots of stuff, too much on it.So I'd like to restore my pc back to factory settings. I have around 110 gig of stuff and I don't want to lose it. So I bought a firewire drive to back it all up on. My plan is, transfer all my data to the external hd. Then formatting my hd completley and rebooting as new, then transferring my needed data abck on to my pc.

I've never formatted before so not to sure how. My main worry is the pc not restarting. I have a start up cd that came with my pc but i have no windows xp cd it came pre installed.

Run Command Completely Gone

Nov 16, 2006

I was cleaning virus and spyware from a friends computer, and when all was done, the Run command is now missing not only from the Start menu, but also from the Advance Properties to be able to turn it on and off. I noticed in the registry entry HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsShellNoRoamMUICache, the key for Run Command was missing, so I created it ("@shell32.dll,-30483"="Run command" REG_SZ)hoping that would solve it, but still it is missing. I re-ran XP SP2, no luck. I installed the free version of Registry Mechanic, but that didn't fix it (though there were things only the full version would fix). I found a reference to this on the site for Prevx1 saying this occurs when McAfee (which was used) only fixes a particular virus half-way, and that Prevx1 would fix it completely. It didn't.

Cant Receive My Emails Completely

May 5, 2010

I use Microsoft Windows XP Pro SP3 with Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 SP3.

It has been my experience that, out of the dozen or so Junk e-mails that I receive every day in my Outlook Inbox on my computer, there are usually one or two that are actually not Junk at all, and those I have to identify as "Add Sender to Safe Sender's List" and re-route to my Inbox. It is for this reason that it is very important that all my e-mails are downloaded from the server to my computer - including the ones identified by the software as "Junk" - because the software obviously is not perfect.

A few weeks ago I noticed that I was not receiving my usual quantity of about a dozen Junk e-mails per day. I did not think too much about it at the time, because, although some days I did not receive any Junk e-mails at all, other days I might receive one or even two

Computer Went Completely Blank

Jun 1, 2005

My computer was running alright, no viruses or anything. Then suddenly, we turn it on one day and its stuck at the hp screen. Not booting, just with the hp logo. I restart it, and after 2 tries, and some beeps, it boots. Gettin all scared and worked up, I run a spyware scan and a virus scan. I found a few trogans and deleted them.
To test it, I turned it off and restarted again. Didnt have any problems. After a few hours it began to beep and got extremely slow. I turned it off. Ever since then, all I've been getting is a blank screen. Its as if its not getting power. The mouse and keyboard dont light up and the screen is blank.
If someone could help me out I'd appreciate it. I've searched the forum but the problems similiar to this that i've found involve the pc actually doing something before the blank screen comes up.

System Will Not Boot Up Completely.

May 3, 2005

I have had trouble recently with a worm on my windows-2000 server, I spent a few hours getting rid of the little blighter, however I now have a machine that will not boot up completely.
Being paranoid I have my c partition set as Fat32 and dual-boot so I can boot onto the drive under windows-98 and poke about a bit.
What happens is the machine comes up as normal and gets to the "Preparing network connections" - then it just stops there, I've tried safe mode but that's just the same. I've had a look through microsoft's website and checked a couple of manuals to no avail. I get an error message about the application log being full and if this is the first time you've seen it etc etc and also "some services did not start" so things are coming up in the background but I cannot log onto the console.

Explorer COMPLETELY Missing

Oct 21, 2009

I'm running Win XP, and earlier today, I decided to start using Win 7 theme. I used the replacer, to replace some XP files with Win 7 ones (including explorer.dll) and I did everything as it was supposed to. After the reboot, my explorer was missing (files, folders, menu bar, everything).So, I open the task manager, click on "New Task...", type in "explorer.exe" and it says: "explorer.exe is not a valid Win32 application". Then, I click on "Browse...", go to C/Windows and there are 2 explorer files. explorer.exe and explorer.scf. When i double click on .scf, it also says that "explorer.scf is not a valid Win32 application.I've been googling for hours now, but haven't found an answer to my problems. And I really don't feel like re-installing or repairing my current Windows.

Laptop Won't Shutdown Completely

Aug 19, 2009

All of sudden my Dell laptop stopped shutting down, or takes close to 10 minutes to shut down. This happened with no other changes or new software/hardware being installed. It appears to sync with our server fine. I use a docking station, Dell Latitude D830, and take it home with me each day. Sync occurs when I dock in the morning and when I shut down to capture and sync my hard drive and server changes on files I work on at office or home. I shut down and it locks up, I then will hit the main power button and one of two things will happen, it will shut completely down or it will start the Sync process, finish, then go to the blue screen with the Windows Shutting Down message, then stick there

Volume Control Completely Gone

Nov 22, 2007

So I try to go to my Volume Control and get this message:"There are no active mixer devices available. To install mixer devices, go to Control Panel, click Printers and Other Hardware, and then click Add Hardware. This program will now close." When I go to my Sounds And Audio Devices Properties, the tabs labled Volume, Audio, and Voice will not even highlight. The buttons that is, nothing works, they're all disabled or something.I guess I'm just having all kinds of problems with this new Windows installation.

Screen Will Go Completely White

May 26, 2010

I am having a weird problem with my windows xp laptop,i don't know what could be causing it so i don't know how to fix it. Ok the problem is constant from start up to shutdown and has been occurring now for about 2 weeks.At first i thought it was a virus so i cleaned my computer but it is still occurring.The problem is this, every now and then my screen will go completely white, its just a display thing cause it happened when i was working while listening to music. it can last anywhere to just 1 sec to 5 minutes. Its constant all the way through but it gets worse if i am watching a dvd or playing a game. What is this problem and how can i fix it? i tried system restore but that didn't work.i think it may be the software i installed at the time but i can't find it in the add or remove programs list to uninstall it.

Cannot Completely Download Service Pack 2

Jun 1, 2006

I am running Windows XP on an E-machines T2385. I had previously loaded the MS Plus! Superpack for XP so that I could utilize Media Player 10 and Movie Maker 2. After several unrelated problems I had to perform a system restore, which was successful. I recently tried to load the Plus! software again and experienced some permissions problems. I was advised by MS to download and use download the Microsoft Installer Clean-up Utility. I was then able to load Disk "1" of the Plus! XP Superpack with no problem. In attempting to load Disk "2" (Digital Media version; w/Media Player 10 and Movie Maker 2 w/ add-ons) I was again prompted to download Movie maker 2 from the internet. Once again it was only available as a download WITH Service Pack 2. I attempted to download SP2, and this time it appeared to proceed smoothly. However, once I got about half way through (as indicated by the status bar) I received the following message pop-up:

"Service Pack 2 Download: Access Denied. OK."

I clicked OK and the following pop-up appeared:

"Service Pack 2 Set-Up Error: Service Pack 2 installation did not complete. Select 'OK' to undo the changes that have been made. OK"

I clicked OK, and a pop-up indicated that various components of the SP2 set-up were being undone, and files erased and deleted. At the conclusion of the removal of SP2 files I received the following pop-up:

"Service Pack 2 Set-up Error: Service Pack 2 installation did not complete. Windows XP has been partially updated and may not work properly."

I was then prompted to restart my computer to put any of the changes into effect.
window indicating that a critical update was available. I'm not certain if the update was simply the latest and greatest or somehow related to the problem at hand... but then when I click on the download option/update referenced it proceeds to a point and then gives me an error message stating that certain files needed to be updated before the download could be successful.

This is becoming frustrating. I would think that downloading SP2 with WXP would be an easy thing to do... but apparently not. Please help! Thanks...

Screen Was Completely Blank After Recovery

Apr 15, 2010

I recently tried to run a destructive factory recovery on my desktop HP Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005, which i have done in the past without a problem. For reasons unknown this time the screen was completely blank when it finished. It is as if im looking at a turned off monitor, no signs of any activity what so ever, just a black blank screen. I do not have any type of recovery disc to this computer at this time , though if i get it back up and running that will be the first thing i do. I really dont know what other information I can give about it. The computer is on , the monitor is on but it looks as if it is off.

Missing Files Dll Completely Corrupted?

Jul 3, 2008

I think I have a corrupted OS in my hands. My computer worked fine yesterday. This morning I added an extended SATA hard drive. When it booted, Windows XP (Pro SP2) startup seemed unusually slow. After I used the hard drive manufacturer's CD to partition the HD and rebooting, I could not get on any of the limited XP accounts because it required a password when it should not have. I am posting this from Firefox, which with a number of other programs unrelated to Microsoft seem to work for the moment. I think I'm missing system files or they are corrupt. I've recently had a Vundo infection which I did clean up, but now I can't even open Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.This would be extremely horrifying had I not had past computer problems of equal horror. I beseech all you benevolent souls reading this to provide some suggestions. Is there anything I could do aside from reinstalling XP?

Completely Lost Microsoft Office S

Dec 12, 2005

A few months ago, after a long night out, I came home and got online.I'm not quite sure what happened, but I woke up, and I had lost all my Office applications. Every single one. Now I'm guessing I deleted it. No, Im not sure why either.My pc is second hand, and did not come with a boot disk. Also, I have litterally no money to sort this problem out.So I'm just wondering, if there is a way I would be able to get it back, for free. I tried restoring it too, but I can't restore it back to the date I lost it. I kinda wish I had sorted this out sooner. Then I could of restored it.
