I'm running the WinXP Pro ver. 2002 OS in a home built desk top machine. Problem is with the Remote Procedure Call (RPC).I have mistakenly disabled this Service from Profiles and when the computer rebooted it opened up into "Safe Mode" and is locked. Can't get it out of safe mode.I tried to undo my mistake and cannot enable this service. Messages say I can't open Properties boxes from any of the Services listed in the My Computer/Manage/Computer Management /Services & Apps/Services... window.
It has been bugging me; I have a pentium 4 2.4 Ghz running Windows XP Pro and I do a lot of number crunching. If I want to 'multitask' by clicking another program icon or aplet anywhere on my screen, it usually takes about thirty seconds to respond. My other machine is a PIII with 933Mhz and Windows 98SE. I get a second program to come up in under 5 seconds, no matter how busy the CPU. I was told XP was 'truely multitasking' since there was no DOS to overlay, was this all hype? I know that memory and background tasks can affect this, but my real question is this;Is there an Administrative or setup function that tells XP 'How' to manage programs, like Windows 98, (you can set the pc to Server, or Workstation mode (or was it desktop;
I was configuring my system with the follow tools secpol.msc and gpedit.msc, when reboted my pc the service Remote Procedure Call (RPC) didnt want to start anymore, when i tried to start it manual, then I get the follow error messenge (Could not start the remote Procedure Call (RPC) on Local Computer 'Error 5: Access denied' This is a very big issue cause windows xp can not function normally without the (RPC) service and allso i cant open the tools secpol.msc and gpedit.msc
I recently did an install of Windows XP pro on a few boxes. The key I used is supposed to be a volume license key. As far as I know, volume keys require no activation. However, upon booting up the machines it does in fact require activation. Am I missing something here? Should I just call Microsoft and have them activate them?
I set up Windows NetMeeting and it works within my LAN with a local IP address.But when I try to make a call in Netmeeting over the Internet I immediately eceive message 'The other did not accept your call'.I set the firewall to open up ports 1720, 1503, 389, & 522.
I upgraded iTunes a couple of days ago. Now all of a sudden my virus/firewall software is popping up messages the mDNSResponder is trying to access the net. The file is located in c:Program FilesBonjour along with some other new files. I tried to delete the Bonjour file, but it will not let me delete them. I know the program got on my computer is from updating iTunes and it is from Apple but I want to know how to get it off
Windows XP Pro Problem began today.farlier today, the PC had booted to a disk reading error, using HDD #1, see below.I put in HDD #2 & life was good. When I had a chance to work on the problem [ disk reading error ] the BSOD & "bad_pool_data" error appeared.0x000000C2 [ 0x00000043, 0xDAE3E000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000 ]I have read http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314492/EN-US/ .The solution described is "Greek to me".The same problem appeared on HDD #2, so I thought I had bad ram. I tested the ram; swapped it out AND ran diags.
I have been wanting to purchase a smart phone or a pda, so I may review, answer emails and check internet sites while I am out of my home office. I have been told that pda's are slow. My current carrier is Cingular, and I do like the Treo 650 and don't mind paying $350 but the monthly charges are horrendous $45 for an unlimited data connect this is beyond your monthly voice charge. I am looking for alternative and I am willing to change carrier but don't know who to go with for less expensive charges. With technology where its at, I thought I'd be able to be constantly on, a la Dick Tracy through my watch.
I run win xp and have a nokia phone. all other folders on the phone seem to me accessable, but this one, and all non phone folders aswell. This would indicate a phone problem, but for old times sake I blame windows. Also, if there are other alternatives to windows explorer that would be a very efficient way to find out if there is any blame to be guided towards windows.
I have a Samsung VI660 phone for which I bought a data cable. I installed the drivers to give it the ability to act as a modem, and I'm able to connect to a dial up internet account using the cell phone as a modem. The problem is, I can't seem to get it send faxes, and I'm not sure if there is anyway to do this. I thought if the cell phone could handshake and establish an internet connection, it should also be able to handshake to establish a modem-fax connection. I confirmed that the fax machine I'm trying to send to is giving a handshake when the number is called. When I attempt to fax using the cell phone, I can see it dialing out, but it never establishes a connection.
When I try to boot my computer reaches the windows screen then restarts, and keeps repeating this. Sometimes it throws up a bad pool caller error and a bsod. It gives me a Stop code: 0xc2 (0x43, 0xc3af4000, 0x0, 0x0) Additionally my keyboard no longer works, at least during startup which is all I can access. True for both USB and ps2 keyboard. The numlock light can be turned on but that's about it. So I know the connection is working but the boards still don't work, which means I've been unable to get to safe mode or into bios settings.
I have rdwc working great using my laptop computer to access my work computer over the internet......after some small problems with set up.I do this using my DSL internet connection, however, when I try to connect using my cell phone internet connection it just times out.....never connects. The cell phone is accessing other internet sites fine. It just won't get to my work computer. I have checked the settings and they seem fine (firewall,router, etc..).
One thing is that whenever I plug in Camera/Cell Phone/PDA (except Flash drive ), it does not show up in My computer as a Removable disk. However I can see that removable drive letter from that little green arrow Icon from Start Menu Bar. I tried hitting that Drive letter in address bar. didn't work. I don't know what the problem could be. So I thought let me install SP3. cannot be installed because I have Latest remote desktop and MUI (something) update in my computer. If I want to install SP3, I'd have to remove that first.
I formatted and reinstalled Windows XP Home edition. What is the phone number to call so I can talk to a live person because I need a new activation number. When I call the 1-888 number( from the activation setup) I get a computer voice. I know I need a new activation number because I had to get a new one about a year ago. I own the OEM WinXP home cd. just can't find the number to call.
I have recently bought myself a Sony Ericsson K750i and after removing the USB cable from the phone or from the computer my computer just restarts for no apparent reason. I have tested my phone on other computers and they work perfectly fine. I was just wondering if anyone heard of this before and know what it could be. BTW: I have tried it in diagnostics mode and it still restarts. I have also tried it in SAFE MODE where it doesnt restart (but it doesnt find the device either :P)
I want to be able to record and log phone conversations on to my hard drive.When I was using a modem I used a program called Modem Spy, this will not work with Broadband/ADSL and so on.I have tried a search on Google with limited results.What is the generic name given to these types of programs or bits of hardware?Better still, could someone throw a few websites my way remembering that most work only with modems, I have broadband.
i have a computer with DSL and i was wondering if i can plug a phone line into a phone and into my other computer and still get internet access. or run a wire from my other computer to this one and get it. i dont know. it's probrably illegal or you cant do it at all.
When i try to install a game before i can complete my installation i receive this error message:"error number: 0x800040707, Dll function call crashed: chkreqs.setup window". I think its something to do with the dll files windows uses. Does anyone know what i need to do to fix this problem?
I want to record and log phone conversations on to my hard drive using software only if possible.When I was using a modem I used a programe called Modem Spy, this will not work with Broadband/ADSL and so on and I no longer have modem fitted.I have tried a search on Google with limited results.Could anyone recomend or name a few products or their websites remembering that most work only with modems, I have ADSL
I started an upgrade for xp pro part way through the install I got a message "WatchDriverSigningPolicy.exe" no found I pressed enter then got another message "fake setup call himself instead original "setup.exe" ; setup abort!" now each time I reboot it starts to load xp then gives me the same message then press enter it then reboots.
I have had Windows XP on my computer for 3 years, during that time I have had no problems with updates. A couple of days ago updates were running when I got the following message box. Service pack 3 setup. Access denied1! Microsoft will now un-install the current updates. At this point I was in a hurry to leave and shut off my computer thinking that when I started up again, the updates would resume their activity.......
I'm having some real issues with my Dell XPS 400 and I'm desperately seeking help. I'm running WinXP Pro and this pc is only about 16 months old. It has the original factory installed ram (1 gig) a 320 gig hard drive and the processor is an Intel ViiV. I have been getting a blue error screen with Hardware Malfunction Call your Hardware Vendor for Support Parity Check Memory Parity Error System was halted that lasted for a few hours. I had to hold the power button in for several seconds each time to shut it down. I ran both the Microsoft Windows Memory Diagnostic tests, as well as the Memtest 86,each several times. The results were always "no memory errors". I attempted a few times, unsucessfully, using the F11 key to reach the Acronis recovery partition. I booted using my XP disk but was unable to re-install. Windows would begin to load and then the blue screen with the same error message would occur. Finally, I was able to access the Acronis recovery manager and restore my pc but on reboot it began to run ChkDsk. Now it keeps rebooting and running a new disk check over and over and over.I have tried to cancel the ChkDsk using the keyboard but it keeps running. I'm at a loss, as to what else, if anything I can do, (besides ripping my hair out by the roots)
a message keeps popping up saying the following: Cannot load dialog. Error 623: The system could not find the phone book entry for this connection. All I can do is click the close button and it goes away and nothing else seems to happen, but it pops up again in a few minutes.
Due to my problems with error 638 and being disconnected frequently I went into control panel,clicked on phone&modem options only to find that my modem isn't accounted for at all! There is a blank where my modem details should be and yet I am on line when I'm doing it! Help! My computer will not allow me to access Hijack- this but I've run adaware spybot and antivirus.I'm also refused access to the btyoyager modem booster as 'the unzipped folder is invalid or corrupt
1) I have seen this problem posted on another forum in the past, but the thread never led to a solution.2) This problem has occurred with both a EIDE hard drive and a USB camera. I have also seen reports of it happening with other drives. (NOTE: the items I am referring to use native WIN XP drivers; I have posted this problem on other forums and the first responder always tells me to go to the manufactrer's site to download the latest drivers.)3) The problem: every time I reboot, the Hardware installation wizard reports the following: "The specified service does not exist as an installed service."4) Once this dialog box is closed, the yellow warning diamond appears nect to the device in hardware manager, and the driver "disk.sys" is NOT installed, although "partmgr.sys" is.
I have started to get the following message coming up when my machine is booting up: Control Service. The requested control is not valid for this service.Has anybody else experienced this? I am using a Notepad with WXP Pro SP2.
Once I installed sp3, I could not get past the windows loading screen, so I started in safemode and uninstalled sp3 that way. My question is, does uninstalling sp3 remove sp2 as well. I can not see sp2 under add/remove programs, but my windows update history says I downloaded sp2 last May.
