We rebooted the computer yesterday and when it all came up i had the followin error. xlm page cannot be displayed. underneath it has the following ///c:/documents and settings/candy/localsetting/temp/mr... Does this mean anything to any one.
I had Windows XP Pro SP2 installed, and then i did the huuuge mistake to install Vista Ultimate. Got annoyed and reinstalled XP Pro SP3.I backed up my files before goin back to XP on an external HD. And when I copied back the files to the pc I saw, to my horror, that everything looked ok. But when I try to open text documents, it's just garbled text. Looks like this.Every single document looks like that, rtf files, txt files, word documents and so on. And I've tried to open them and converting to different codings in word and so on (UTF, ANSII and what not). Nothing works.And then I saw, when I was gonna import my bookmarks in Firefox that I saved before I went back to XP from Vista, that those html files also are full of garbled text
I looked around on google, and can't find anything about it I would greatly appreciate some help. Every single text document, which is quite a few, is messed up. And some of them, I didnt even open in Vista.. So don't know if it's because of Vista or if its something else.
My printer (Dell A940 All in One) is possessed. It is printing huge blue bars over all colour images and text. Here's a picture.Is there something broken with the printer or does the cartridge need to be replaced?
How do you do this please? its not a prob with my printer, I think I remember adjusting something in windows but can't remember how. I print out a page off the net, but a portion of the right hand side is always missing .. What is the solution to fixing that please??
I'm in the middle of a basic networking lab and one of my VM's crashed. As our host, we use Windows XP. For virtualization we use VMware Workstation. I had a problem installing the Internet Printing Client for my lab. I got an error saying that there wasn't enough hard drive space. I then shut down my VM and added another hard drive. Upon startup I was greeted with: STOP: c0000218 {Registry File Failure} i did this:Removing the virtual HDD I added before the problems started. Restarting the VM. Restarting the host machine. Trying the VM on another machine. Booting to .iso and using the repair console with the command chkdsk C: /r.
I have two pc laptops on one everything is great, in color and you can view everything as you would expect ie tab options and backgrounds. on the second (compaq presario 2200 laptop windows xp home) you cannot see tab options and internet page backgrounds, borders, tabs are all white and the text is in back or white text boxes (colour is also shown on the pages) i have tried to show axtive x etc and i do not have anything like norton oporating. i have been through nearly every setting but cannot work out why my laptop is veiwing its display like this and how to ammend it.
On an irregular basis, in both Internet Explorer and Google Chrome, text is suddenly selected that I don't want selected, sometimes covering the entire web page. I can close and reopen the browser and the behavior stops, sometimes for days, sometimes only for hours.
This week on a minority of the websites I go on regularly the text and images aren't loading and only the background comes up. This isn't a problem with the websites as I've tried them on another PC and they come up fine.The info bar at the bottom says that the images are downloading but it's happening really slowly and even when it finishes there's still nothing.Before that happens it also says "error on page" then "done but with errors on page".
Does anyone know how i can set internet explorer so that every time i run it the text size is default "larger"? it always comes up medium on my laptop, and that's too small. i always go to "view", "text size" and change it to "larger", but the next time i boot up, it defaults back to "medium". I want it to always stay on "larger".
IE started acting funny in that it started displaying text very small. For example, on this very site's homepage, under Tom's pic in the welcome section, the text is very small. It used to be very clear and readable, but now its a real strain on the eyes. Its happening on all pages, not just this one.
I want to know if there is possible to put a specific text over the desktop and when the user change the wallpaper the text continues appearing at the same position (basically I want to do it on Windows XP).People says that an image worth more than thousands of words... Ok this is a screenshot of what I want to do

I check her java version and it is up to date. I then had her clear her temp file and cookies. Still won't work.
I used to be able to grab a video clip form the internet and save it to my computor. Now when I grab a video with a wmv extension and do a "save target as" it only saves it as a htm file and does not grab the video itself.
i would like to embed this in a forum i belong to. i have embedded images and Internet. now i have this tiny audio file i want to embed and i get this message when i try: you may have entered certain html or script tags which are not permitted. you can insert html and flash, but not script or other objects. the above is how i've been trying to do it so it will play on the forum thread. i don't want just a link to the other site. also i have used embed in place of audio and that doesn't work either.
I have a DOS based accounting system that I have used for years and I print to various printers on my network using the "NET USE" command. It has worked just fine until recently when it started taking 10 to 20 minutes to execute a "NET USE LPT1: /DELETE" command or to have a printout send to the printer.It seems that the print job is hanging up in my computer (DEL Inspirion 8200 WinXP) because the DOS application hangs up until it finally prints. I have just testing printing from a Windows application and it does the same thing. The printer that I am trying to print to is attached to a Win2000/Red Hat Linux dual-boot server and does the same thing no matter how the server is booted up.
I have a program called capital that we use for our point of sale.I had to replace a computer that died and the new one has Xp on it the old one had winodws 98 on it. The printer is on the win98 system and I want to make a network printer to it to print to but the problem its a dos program that will only print to LTP1.
I have a dell desktop p4 2.4ghz w/ 1 gig Ram. For the past month or so, I have been having printer freeze-ups. I have a HP1012 hooked driectly via USB, and 3 other networked printers (2 HP and a Brother laserfax printer). The weird parts - it will freeze randomly, and will freeze when printing to any of the printers!! I may go a week between freezes, or a day. When it freezes, I can not bring up the "PRINTER and FAXES" in windows, and when I click on the printer icon in my time tray, nothing happens. I then must usually cntrl-alt-del to end whatever program was printing, then restart. When I try to restart, I always get an "Explorer can not close" message and must "end now", before it will turn off, and then it will take forever in the "Windows is shutting down" screen before it reboots.
i'm using xp home edition sp2 and an epson photo R800. The problem is, when I print a document or photo, I sometimes have to wait upto a couple of hours for it to print. I have changed the print priority to 99 but still the same. I have re-installed the drivers and checked all the settings and i can't see anything thats different as it used to print immediatly. I have tried changing to print immediatly after first page/after last page and everything else i can think of. I also have another PC on my w/less network sharing this printer but this has the same delay.

I want to print a list of all the programs I have on my pc, as I am wanting to do a total re-install. I have used the 'uninstall list' from highjack this, but not all of the programs are listed. There are shortcuts on my desktop, which are not in the program list.can I get a complete list of all the programs.
I have a LaserJet 1160 printer that is connected by USB (computer has no parallel port). Using Windows XP and have automatic updates turned on. This is a business computer, connected to a network.Early last week I came into find my computer had been restarted after a Windows automatic update. Didn't think to much about it. I went to print and my printer had disappeared from the system. I reinstalled (or tried) the printer and it took 3 or 4 tries. I kept getting errors (0x800703F2) about the DOT4USB driver not being able to be installed. Finally I was able to get the printer installed. It installed by the "Add new printer" option in the printer control panel after the 3rd or 4th time.
So, I have my printer now. Unfortunately it is extremely slow now when printing through Windows. It's like the printer is not getting the information very fast from the computer. This printer has always printed very fast. The status light would blink maybe twice before printing started on a full document. Now it blinks for 20+ seconds to just print a 4 word sentence from Microsoft Word. The only time it prints fast is when I print from inside a VPN connection (we connect to another company to run one program and from inside there is prints very fast).I've tried HP tech support but the printer prints fine when I hook it up to my laptop. I've replaced the USB cable, switched it to several USB ports on the computer, tried to update all of the drivers (that DOT4USB shows as a hardware update in Windows Updater every time but the installation fails). I'm at my wits end with this! I find myself directing 1+ page documents to a network printer outside of my office because the printer is just so slow.
When I go to device manager, under "Universal Serial Bus controller" the first one named "hp LaserJet 1160 series (DOT4USB)" has a yellow exclamation point over it. When I go to properties it says the drivers for this device are not installed (Code 28). Of course, when I try to install the drivers from this area I get a message that it "cannot install this Hardware. An error occurred during the installation of the device. The configuration registry key is invalid." I've googled that for days and can't find any help with it.
How can I print a page that is longer than the screen?For example, a page that has to be scrolled down to see its entire contents.I am referring,specifically ,to the left side or the right side of the Windows Explorer ''directory'' or ''folders'' or ''files'' pages, which are much longer than one screen. Is there any way, using only Windows XP, that I can print those long scrolling LISTS of folders, or program files, or data files that are two or three screens in length?
When i get a message in hotmail which has a couple of pictures tagged on the bottom it will only print the text and not the pictures unless it all fits on one page .If several pages are required only the first page shows any pictures,the other pages come out blank apart from the hotmail menu on the left hand side.
