Windows XP Home. I am getting the following error message ---The instruction at "0x01c12bf2" referenced memory at "0x022b6680". The memory could not be "read". Click OK to terminate the Program.
I am the admin for our home computer.I used to be able to Explore all the other user's Internet Temporary folders just to monitor my kids viewing habits.not nosy, just trying to be a good parent. For some reason, this ability has disappeared.I'd go into the user's Local Settings and there would be a folder that said Temp Internet and I could pull up thumbnails on about 5 different folders with long cryptic names. Did something get turned off or switched? I'm running Windows XP and I used to be able to do this on this same outer.
I use IE 6 and Windows XP Pro. I keep 2 windows of IE open and 1 window aol open. Lately once a day almost every day one of my open ie windows will freeze. This usually happens when I go to a new site. The window will freeze and I just close the window, get the MS error msg, send the report, and then reopen the window and continue on. My computer does not freeze or lock up just one window becomes unreponsive. From Component Services Application here are the 2 error msgs Application Hang Event ID 1001 Description: Fault bucket 126637809.
I am really getting tired of getting these application hangs in Explorer 6. Is Microsoft ever going to fix this? I got a message once to download a fix which I did, but it didn't stop the hangs. Is there any thing I can do? And while I'm here! What do I do when I try to shut down my PC and get that little box that has to end a running program when I have closed all my windows? I have a Dell 4700, with windows XP home edition and explorer 6 service pack 2. I am also using Cox cable high speed broadband.
Error from any application that tries to access the Internet. This includes IE, the Live Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, Limeware, uTorrent, any application, the moment I try to access the Interent with it. For example, I'll get the error the moment I try to log on with MSN, but not when I initially launch the messenger. However, if I don't actually click the Don't Send button, the applications work just fine...The problem has started when I accidently turned off the PC without a proper shut down.I don't actually get the errors in Safe Mode, but then again, I have no internet connection there.
I am no longer able to open Internet Explorer due some application inteference.The problem is not a connection problem.How do I determine the inteference and remove it so I can connect to Internet Explorer?
I was innocently going through the paces on my Windows 2000 machine, when suddenly it wouldn't allow me to open my desktop folders. I'd been using the computer to play music through iTunes for about three hours before it acted up.If I move the cursor on top of any icon on my desktop it will not open or move. Rebooting hard and hot don't change it. Trying to get into files through the task bar doesn't work. I can start Word and Word can see my files and folders, but can't manipulate or transfer them.
when i double click on "My Computer" in the desktop it opens with the "folders" part open on the standard buttons i.e its just like right clicking and exploring. plus i also realised that right clicking on my computer has the explore option first, and then comes open. And also, when i double click on any of my drives in the "my computer" it pops up an error, and the right click option is again wierd, but different this time, the 1st option is autoplay, then comes open, then search then explore. The drive doesnt open with "open" and "autoplay" but only opens with exploring and not only , but the drive opens in a new window.
I have Windows XP Home edition. After installation of Autopatcher April 2006 edition, the link on the system tray is not working properly. "Explore my Bluetooth Places" is opening with Notepad! Reinstallation of Widcomm Bluetooth software was also invain.
I have run windows XP after removing some nasties and the following hassles seem to occur: Can no longer: cut and paste; click and drag icons on desktop; it won't copy; can't file transfer; Int Explorer won't initiate; email (outlook) says I can't do the requested action (send/recieve); the network card isn;t recognised; the media files won't play; I can't send to e drive to burn files.; the security I have - Trend Micro - apears to load and then vanishes ...seems all I can do is read, open some programs and type...
I image edited some photos and gave them a slightly different file name.However, in Windows Explore, when viewing the thumbnails, those edited pictures show up as if they weren't edited. Why? Is there any way to make Windows Explore show the edited version of the photos when viewing via thumbnails?
When I right click on my C & D drive in My Computer the Open and Explore words in in odd characters and clicking on them does nothing. This happened after I used a USB key on another computer that had these characters. How do I fix this?
I installed a new 80Gb Samsung drive in my XP Home machine to replace a failed 40Gb drive. The new drive is found in SETUP during the boot and appears normal. The new drive shows up under System Hardware Devices and it shows that the device is working properly.The problem is that it does not show up in My Computer and does not show up in Explore
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?
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?
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.
I went to Windows Update, but could only find a Professional Version of XP Service Pack 2.

When I click the icon it says "The operating system is not presently configured to run this application"
