Personal Computer Weighted Down Create Error In DLL
Mar 15, 2005
My grandson and my daughter decided that Personal Computer weighted down so decided to clean it up.What they didn't do was add/remove programs and delete most junk first.What they did do was try to reinstall XP on top of XP.I was thinking they would delete,reformat and re-install.We now have message saying that XP cannot load windows,because a Dll is missing.Cannot get into safe mode to get into control panel to delete,reformat and reinstall.Have genuine microsoft windows XP.Or any way I can get windows 98 back onto machine,to restart Windows for which I have a boot disk.Exactly what have I to do to try to get machine operational.

This has been an intermittent problem but becoming more constant. When I log in with my password (I am the only user on computer), if the hour glass doesn't come up immediately after pressing "enter", the computer then loads with the default profile settings instead of my own. If I immediately restart the computer (either after if is loaded or I shut down the computer while it is loading), I can log in & my user settings load properly. When this problem occurs, occasionally a window will pop-up after I enter my password at log-in, with something to the effect of user environment, personal settings unable to load due to insufficient memory. Also I do not know if this is related, but when I try to error check & is scheduled to start when the computer restarts, it usually states that it has been canceled after I have restarted the computer & doesn't go into a full scan. The reason I say that this might be related is that this is also an intermittent problem & seems to only occur when I'm having above problem (which is usually what prompts me to want to check scan). At other times, it seems to work okay. I have an HP dv8135 laptop, winXP media edition sp3, AMD 64, 2 GB RAM, ATI Mobility Radeon Xpress 200 (with updated driver), TrendMicroPro 2008, & Acronis True Image 11.

Having a problem with my friends personal computer. He has a Fujitsu Siemens 'Cordant' Personal Computer which was not booting up at all. I managed to fix this and install the xp home recovery disk that came with the personal computer. Unfortunately he now needs XP Pro which hangs at "press any key to boot from cd" when i put it in his machine. The cd itself is in perfect working order and will boot on other computers. All hardware is fine as XP home installed fine and when i try to press enter to boot from cd, the computer makes a beeping noise so the keyboard is recognized.

My daughter shut the power off during shutdown.Now the Personal Computer won't reboot. The screen comes up asking what mode you want to boot up in.No matter what you select it loops back.The Personal Computer is a Gateway with Windows XP Media.It didn't come with recovery cds, only blank ones to make your own.I just got off the phone with CS and they are sending me recovery cds but it will take about a week to get.Is there any other way to fix this without using the recovery cds ?

The other day I was sitting there playing world of war-craft like any other day, when my personal computer just freezes and nothing works, so I do a hard boot.I was using windows vista at this stage and every time the loading bar would come up, it would go away like windows was about to load and then it would just sit on a endless black screen. After going into safe mode and doing a system restore I was able to get in to windows once before it froze up on another game, I spent 2 days trying to get into windows before reformatting to windows xp.So, after reformatting and putting windows xp on, everything seemed fine, did my windows updates and all the updates for my mobo etc, had the personal computer running for about 6 hours with no problems, go to play world of war-craft and within 5 mins my personal computer froze again. So back to the same problem, except this time the bar loads and i get a blue screen that comes up sometimes, but its only up for about 1 second before windows restarts again. It just keeps going to the windows loading bar, will freeze for 2-3 seconds, continue to load and then restart again by itself. I left it on for about an hour of cycling through by itself but windows still wont load.World of war-craft is on a 2nd HD that hasn't been reformatted, I thought this might be the cause but my personal computer also froze when I was just browsing the net and had the same problem loading windows.Any suggestions? because I'm a bit lost at the moment with what to do, the only other thing I can think of to be the cause would be my ram or gfx card dying? but I hope that's not the case.

I'm sure this has been covered many times, but I'm new to this NG and I just got a new computer with XP on it. The thought of transferring data from my old Personal Computer with SE to XP seems daunting. I thought I could hook up my old HD with a USB 2 external enclosure and transfer data that way. Would that work?

Have 2 personal computer's both have XP SP2 using eTrust AZ Armor with it's FW being a rebadged ZoneAlarm or so I've been told. I've checked the settings on each personal computer FW, and they appear to be the same. Also, on each personal computer in Internet Explorer/Tools/Internet Options/Advanced/Multimedia, Show Pictures is selected.There is a car forum that we like and some of the members post image attachments, but from one personal computer the images cannot be viewed. Images are able to be viewed that are posted directly into the message, but the ones with attachments show up as Attached Thumbnails with a blank rectangular box below. On the other personal computer, on the exact same posting I see Attached Images and in the rectangular box are .jpg links that I can open.Any suggestions as to what settings need to be changed to be able to view them from both personal computer's?

After getting this downloader virus which was picked up by norton and dispensed with, the personal computer began to slow up to a crawl. I am wondering if damage or sorts was done before it was removed. The available physical memory dropped to around 30M and the virtual memory is to the max and that seems to help. The operating system is XP pro with service pack 2.

I recently had a problem with NPF 2005 that resulted in my uninstalling the program using the it's uninstall program. When I tried to reinstall the program, I discovered that the installer would not run. I have tried various methods to start the installer from the NPF 2005 install CD but nothing worked. The Symantic knowledge base suggested copying the CD to the hard drive and installing from the hard drive. This did not work either. I thought that perhaps the setup program has been corrupted so I tried the CD in a computer running Windows ME. The installer came to life and was ready to proceed with the installation. I did not attempt to complete the Installation, I only wanted to determine if the setup program had been corrupted. Does anyone have any idea why XP might not allow the program to run

I am using a POWER USER account, Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 /w all the latest patches availible via microsoft update. I was trying to create a .zip file of a folder within the primary directroy of a backup hard drive I use.
For Example:
D:stuff - I wanted to make a zipfile of the folder "stuff."
Then I get the following error "Cannot Create Output File."
However, if I move the folder to the destop or a subdirectory i.e. stuff/more stuff, then the .zip file is created with no problems.
Also, because user accounts [at least in my experience] have a tendency to decay, I created a freash power user account and the same problem persist.
Is this a standard security feature for power user accounts? Is there anyway I can "disable" it if it is?
