I was trying to register with Windows Messenger (Windows Live ID). One of the entries is my e-mail address. I entered it properly, but when I finished with the page, it returned with this message:
"The portion of your e-mail address that follows the @ symbol is part of a "reserved domain" such as live.com, hotmail.com, msn.com or passport.com. Please type a different e-mail address" I know I entered my address correctly (tried it several times). Any thoughts?

I am running Windows XP on a HP Pavilion ze2000.I think I have a problem with Windows Live Messenger. Actually, I think I have several problems: 1. Messenger tries to load in my tray when I start the computer. It never did this before. It also does the same when I connect to my broadband via dialler. At the moment I am denying access through Zone Alarm. Is this normal? 2. In All Programmes I have a Windows Messenger Icon and a Windows Live Messenger Icon. Again, is this normal? There is only an option to remove Live Messenger in Add or Remove Programmes. 3. There is a "1 contact pending" message above the contact list in my Live Messenger, which leads to a "page not available" message when I click on it. 3. When I close Live Messenger, I get multiple "RPC Server Not Available" warnings which I keep closing but keep reappearing. They appear too fast for me to close them, so I have to restart my machine.
Best I remember, when I installed XP, well, the first time I turned on my IBM ThinkPad with XP Pro OEM, I got the option to register it and activate it. I activated it but did not register it. Is there any way to register it now?
I installed my xp home on my dauter's computer. Why? long story.I can't register it because the cd came installed on my dell, I have to purchase another key.I'm screwed (she is). I can't get any updates. I ran housecall and it came up with 5 pages of windows and explorer problems. All would be solved with SP2 and other updates.I can't afford a new operating system or the 90 bucks for a new key.What are my options? Do I try another operating system, Linux? I am not to bright with these big problems, at least their big to me. Just figuring out the small stuff still. I can't even keep her computer on line
so i just installed windows XP after getting a new hard drive and mother board. It wont let me register it. When i boot up and go to my desktop a few seconds later it say you have 30 days to activate windows. so i click on it and it asks if i want to register windows over the internet, so i click next, then it asks if i want to register with microsoft or something like that so i clink no. then it says "checking for connectivity" and then it says "you were unable to connect to the server" or something like that "Please make sure you are able to connect to the internet". Im able to use fire fox and google crome.
Could someone clarify this maybe simple question please ? I have three Pcs running on a wireless network and all systems have their pre-installed Microsoft Genuine XP Home Edition setup with their own different genuine Auth Licence Keys ! Just built a new system and was wondering if i could install XP Home on it and use pre-owned installation cd and use the same licence key again on this new built pc ? I assume I could do it, but what about the online registration needed to validate the product ?
1. Can I register this Licence key Again ? 2. Would it affect the other PC using the same Licence key ?
Installed Windows XP Pro on a laptop and have "activated it" does this mean that if I ever have to format the machine and reinstall windows I won't be able to register the same copy again or is there a limit to the amount or activates?
I'm using windows XP professional edition. i have developed one application consists of nearly 20 dlls. i'm using regsvr32 to regiter and un register the dlls. I'm using one batch file (*.bat) to do this task (unregister the old version and registering the new version). When run this bat file after, few minutes ( i don't know all the files are registered). the system getting shuttdown. I tried the same work using windows API functions also.But the same(using regsvr32, Windows API) work well in the other operating systems (Windows 2000 prof). what will be problem? or is there any other better way to register the dlls?
I use Firefox as my main web browser. I've set it as the default browser in Internet Properties and most of the time it appears when I want it to. However, some third-party software will insist, when it needs to access the internet (e.g. when I'm trying to register it), on trying to open Internet Explorer. Is this some quirk of the third-party software, or is there anything I can do in Windows XP (home) to fix this minor annoyance?
I had a problem with my external hard drive…which I informed you guys about. I was advised to solve the problem (potentially) using chkdsk on the drive. It worked to an extent Some, in fact the majority of files were recovered. However the problem remains in that not all files were recovered and NOW one file…when clicked on to gain access I am told that the drive is not formatted and would I like to format it now. Of course, I would not as the information is important. I enclose a copy of my previous letter to give you a full spectra of the saga.I am having problems with an external hard drive I purchased about a year ago. Files seem to be disappearing. I have a file which contained about 12gb of information (music files etc). The file now only has 88mb of information. It is the top part of the files but as you can see is only a raction of what it used to be. What has happened to the files? I have done a search in the drive…and no sign of them. Also, the system information does not register any increase on the ‘free space’ of the drive. I am at a loss. What is happening? Can I retrieve the files? It is really punishing to think that they may be lost to me for good.
In the process of clicking a link in an email a message pops upfrom IE 6 because of a failure and has to close. I then went to eventviewer and the culprit turned out to be ( Faultrep.dll ) from here Itried to register the .ddl ( random trouble shooting, thinking the .dllwas bad ) and this message came up; "Faultrep.dll was loaded butthe .dll RegisterServer entry point was not found. The file cannot be located". Need some guidance here because the problem is chronic
About two weeks ago, I was going to buy "register Mechanic" cleaner and I believe a "John" answered my question with a good free register cleaner. Reg Scrub" which I used two times. The last time I also ran "Seek & Destore", and it took out the Reg. Scrub. Where can I go to again download it.
I have been trying to install a new version of XP on my computer mainly because I can't handle 64 bit and it's refusal to be compatible with my wireless card. First of all, I do not have a registered version of the 64 bit due to no internet connection which didn't allow me to register my copy and in turn locking my computer unil I do so. My friend gve me a copy of XP pro SP3 and I want to install it, but I have a few issues. How do I delete the old OS? How do I install the new one? I have been having some problems with opening the bios and what not, I am using ASUS P5N73-AM mobo. I really need help with this, because it is limiting my use of the computer, a brand new computer which I have not been able to consistently use since the time I bought it.
I'm running XP-Pro, ACT 2006 and Goldmine 6.0 databases. Whenever I need to sign on with my user name first and last name then enter a password to access secure websites the last name of my user name changes to a series of letters with no meaning and then I am denied access to the sight. This also happens when I want to enter my "Signature" at the end of an email
I have Windows XP Proffesional and when I go to the username screen,beside my user name it sais,"1 unread mail message." I checked my mail and I can't get that message to go away.
A simple, silly question but where is sign in on these pages? I can't find it and to be identified as the upright character I am I need to go to 'sign out' before I am recognised. What am I not seeing?
I was trying to sign into the domain on one of my workstations when I got an error message. I solved that problem before by removing the computer from server, joining a workgroup, then rejoining the domain. Only problem is that this time, when I joined a workgroup, I forgot the password to sign on locally, and Last Known Good Configuration won't help in this case. Is there anyway to sign on to the local machine? Even if I'd have to create another account, that's fine. Or is there a way to get the computer to give me the option to log on to a domain? Maybe I should have named this thread "Cannot Log On To XP"
I have to sign in each time, several times a day, even though the "sign on auto" is checked. I never log off. No help from hotmail just the obvious, do the above. Would appreciate a solution. Use XP Pro.
