Something happened I got blue screen while booting saying if this is the first time reboot. I rebooted but the same big message with blue screen. Rebooted and then from BIOS changed the priority of the boot and started to repair but ultimately had to reinstall the OS (XP Pro). The installment got successful. But my sound icons was gray and there were all yellow items in the device manager under sound-video category.
I installed all the programs in the Intel Express Installer CD that came with the mother board. This installed RestoreIT Lite also. Now rebooted the PC immediately after giving the Administrative password I get a screen with FarStone caption on the upper right of the screen and then that is it. Nothing happens further.

These past couple of days I have noticed that my PC has slow down considerably and everytime my PC is turned on or rebooted, the taskbar would change to a dull boxy grey colour. When I look into the display properties and all the themes have disappeared! I have googled and tried all avenue on the internet to fix this but with no luck. Can someone please help me? Do I have some virus on my PC or something? I have Windows XP on my desktop.

I'm running an AD site with XP clients, I locked the screen on one of my machines using ctrl-alt-del > Lock Computer. On my return, the username and password boxes were greyed out.
I could still click the dropdown to choose between domains but couldnt enter a username and password so had to hard reboot the machine

I would be very grateful for some of your input. We have recently suffered from several Trojan viruses and an attempt to install Sony Ericsson's phone suite. I have hopefully got rid of both. Though I still get the occasional crash of win23 services. My AVG is up to date and has not found any more viruses and there is no detected spy ware. However as a result the task bar, start menu and IE have all gone Grey.

I have read all the posts I could find here about going to Win 7.So I know I need to have a clean install done.Will be taking comp to comp store,learned the hard way to stop doing things when I'm not sure what I am doing.My question is,since Win 7 will be 64 bit,can I install 4GB of ram instead of the 2GB that XP only supports, mobo says only use 2 GB,a GB in each slot but I'm hoping that is because of XP, the mobo is 64 bit capable, in that it supports both 32 bit and 64 bit.And should I get a new small HDD to have the XP moved to,or can all the files and folders from XP be transferred to Win 7?

One day, not sure how, I pushed some key while on a credit card website and all of a sudden the font became very small (like half the size of this) !! It affected every site I go to. I don't really know how to explain it, but I can't read most websites anymore including this one.

Was upgraded to Office 2003 but has plain gray borders; I had it at last firm and overall look was blue which I believe was the XP theme. Under Display Properties > Color scheme, Windows XP is not a choice. I'm thinking I'm missing the XP Theme (Themes as a service is running) but can't seem to find the download on www.microsoft.com

I need to download powerpoint, not the full version, a disk from school that I need to look at. I asked before, got a small version trial, don't remember that opened it. When I installed the new hard drive, forgot about powerpoint. Now I need it for a picture sent to me. It only took a minute or less to download the version of powerpoint

When I click on a link which asks me to send an email, a small screen comes up headed New Messages. The From and To fields are already filled in correctly when it appears but when I type my message/request/whatever, along comes another screen headed Dial Up Connection and then Connect btinternet.com (my ISV.) My name again is correctly filled in with a space saying if I want to change this password what password? to enter it in space provided.
I have tried every known password which I have ever used and when I press to connect, another little screen pops up telling me that it is 'unable to establish connection.' how to get around this? I end up copying and pasting the original link into my btYahoo mail box and sending it that way. A tad long winded

The ability to drag any small window with all the contents. Not just the outline of the window. I have tried again and again to get it to stay on and checked, all to no avail. I don't understand why. At the desk top I right click anywhere to get to very small window with (properties) at the very bottom. I then click on Properties and get (Appearance). Next I click on appearance tab to get to the window that has the (Effects) button. Next, I click on the effects tab and look to see if the little bitty square next to (Show Window Contents While Dragging) is checked. And it is never checked. So I check it to get the effect of dragging the contents with the window as I move it around the screen.

When a subsidary window pops up in various programs they are too small, and i can't view the entire box.On the left side and in the bottom of the window there are several boxes that i can't view the entire content of. sometimes, depending on the program, i'm able to "fix" the problem by resizing the box, but other times the boxes are not resizeable. It's getting to be really frustrating.

I am using XP and would like to know how to make My Computer, My Documents, Recycle Bin and Control Panel open in full screen as all other items do. It really annoys me that they open in a small screen meaning I have to maximise them every time I open them.

Just a few days ago when I browse the internet, the text of the websites I visit has become smaller than usual. Small to the point of having a hard time reading them. I have not changed any settings nor has anyone else used it between the time it was normal and when it starting doing this.

After two weeks of fighting, I finally got our lap top to reformat and Reload XP Home. I have followed the steps on re-installiing XP that was posted several times, my problem is it has been "stuck" on the wallpaper screen, with the bottom task bar loaded and the recycle bin icon present. The light indicating the drive is busy has stayed on and I can hear the disk moving. Does it normally take an hour and half to get this far after pressing the " finish" button on the install?
