Truncated Panels - Can Only See Half The Window
Feb 22, 2007
I am trying to install two different programs, but there's a problem. I am encountering windows or panels (or whatever you call them) that are cut off on the right side. I can only see half the window, so I cannot click the "next" buttons to continue the installation. It's like someone took an x-acto knife and sliced off the right half of the window. I also have this problem with my HP Printer Toolbox. I thought that maybe I had uninstalled a critical system font, but all the system fonts are there, except for Modern MS Sans Serif, which I can't find anywhere.

I've just switched from 98 to XP. I find now that the window designations in the taskbar for my *browser windows only* are severely and unaccountably truncated. My browser is IE6. Even if there's only one window open, if it's a browser window, only one letter will display. Other windows will properly display the full name. I've turned taskbar grouping on and off with no change. I've also run the SFC utility, with no change. There is no such problem in my Win98 machine, and my security settings (and all other settings) are the same. I don't wish to upgrade to IE7.

I have been experience this for a long time now. When i switch my computer on it loads up my screansaver but not the toolbar. It doesn't do it at its own time because i left it on for 24 hours to see if it was running slow, but it just didn't load up. I have to run bit torrent through task manager and right click a program i downloaded, then click open containing folder to load the toolbar up. Any ideas on how to fix this, so it will boot up with the pc?of all, i can't run any programs with my pc. It loads the egg timer but then stops and doesn't load up. Has done this for a while also. I can't access any of my control panels either

I have a rather strange registry problem that I can't seem to fix. It's a truncated key in the HKLM/System/Control Sets(all)/Control/Media Categories/ and the key has been truncated ie. {C1j8C09B-11D8-4fa5 and the rest is gone. Regedit can't open or delete it and exporting the category cleans it up but the import still includes it since it can't be deleted. Error message is "Cannot open {C1j8C09B.... Error while opening key." Do you have a method that might accomplish the fix. It's not causing any harm yet since it resides in an area that defines speaker jacks that I don't use but I really want it clean and a reinstall is out of the question with 30 years of custom data and op sys mods.

I've been unable to find the (assumed) setting that no longer enables me to print any online page without the right margins being cut off...sometimes up to 1.5 inches of the page. So frustrated that I started using Firefox 3 months ago but the freezing after a day of use or using Acrobat drove me away from that browser.

I am finding that many of the dialog boxes, which used to be normal, now display truncated. That is, portions of them, including various command buttons do not display, or only parts of the command buttons display. I'm sure I changed a setting somewhere to cause this, but I can't figure out what setting(s) will restore them to normal.

I have a batch file which copies key folders and files between hard disks - It would seem that although it will accept only truncated folder and file names (e.g. progra~1) for the source, sub folder and file names are written to the target drive full length. Am I right in thinking that source names have to be written in the truncated form (after all it is, basically a DOS command)? if not how can this be done?

For the past few weeks, windows has been only recognizing half (256mb) of my total 512mb of ram. Something that makes this problem even more peculiar is that third party tools such as cpu-z and speedfan see the full 512mb, but the system properties and dxdiag both say 256mb. The bios also says 512mb, dual channel mode. I can also make any information about this system that anyone needs to help me with this.

I'm not sure what my father did, but his desktop is now split in half. The left half shows the folders in the My documents folder and the right half of the desktop is the old desktop picture with the wallpaper, and all the icons. I don't know how to fix this.

So installed WinXP Pro on my 3 month old HP pavillion personal computer and I am having an issue with the ram Apparently windows is only recognizing half of it.Here are some of the most pertinent details: AMD Turion64 ML-34,Radeon Xpress 200m w/128 MB on the video card.There are 512 MB installed DDR, Dual Channel.The bios is recognizing all 512 of the ram, but windows properties only shows 256.dxdiag also shows 256, but CPU-Z shows all 512.Does anyone have any idea whats going on? Has anyone actually experienced this phenomenon? I don't know if this is just a reading error, causing no performance difference, but I think I can feel the difference, but since its pretty new and the operating system has only been installed for about 2 weeks, I haven't gotten to get a good feel of what its supposed to be. I have also noticed in the past couple days that it takes a very long time to boot.

I have been trying to play a DVD for the last hour and a half. VLC Media player plays the dvd, but only half of the audio is played.If anyone knows how to fix that, then that would be great.Also if I try using Media Player Classic then it plays choppy/slowed down video and audio.I also tried AVS Media player, but that would start to load the video and stop at 3% and never get any farther.I am not sure how that program works, but it seemed like it was trying to rip the dvd and then play it or something.

When i open any link with "open in new window" the new window is not full size screen window.Of course i dragged it by mouse many times and that should fix it later.It means it should be opened as it had been dragged,but that's never happened though i dragged it about a hundred time as a full screen size.What is the wrong here?

I just replaced my old Windows 2000 HD with a newly purchased HD and installed Windows XP Pro/SP2 with all the latest updates from MS.When opened this web page by placing cursor on the line and click, the Google page appears briefly on the myWin.doc window but immediately closes and opens a new, different size window for the Google web page. In the old Windows 2000, the Google page remains opened on the same window overlapping the myWin.doc window and no new window is opened.

When install SP3 for some reason a message pops up that says access is denied and undoes every thing back to its previous state. I tried the auto-update option I even downloaded the ISO copy on MS site and it didn't work out.

Half life is unplayable on XP without tweaking.1. How to recover from incompatible driversBefore you install new drivers set a system restore point. Start>All programs>Accessories>system tools>system restore After your new drivers don't work reset your computer. Press F8 repeatedly as soon as the BIOS screen disappears, and before the Windows XP screen appears. Select safe mode. Use system restore again to undo your mess.2.Video Drivers The NVidia drivers that come with XP do not allow you to run Half Life in OpenGL.Update to the newest drivers.Despite the fact that they are not official drivers, 22.50 was the only set which worked 3. Sound DriversUse windows update to update Creative drivers.4.Fixing screen flickerWindows XP defaults to 60Hz for games.A fix is available here:http://www.fileplanet.com/dl/dl.asp?/planetquake/ztn/nvreffix-setup.exe Select set: every resolution to monitor's maximum supported rate5. Fixing lagIf you are having trouble with lag, try disabling the windows XP firewall. Go to control panel>network connections. Select connection, right click,properties, advanced, untick the firewall.6. MouseYou can improve your mouse smoothness for games.Control panel>mouse>hardware>properties>advancedChange the sample rate to a higher one, eg. 200.

My friends XP crashed so I leant them my recovery disc (my old pc had XP this one has vista), when the xp recovery disc didn't work for them, they used my Acer Vista one which has half or more loaded vista and stalled probably because the lap top is to old to handle it. Anyway there is a blue Acer loading screen doing nothing and the vista programs run behind it which makes it difficult to see what you're doing. They brought it around to me as I can use this pc to see what I'm doing and try and fix there's more or less by feel, if that makes sense. They tried reinstalling my xp disc but vista seems to super seed it and it wont take, which doesn't surprise me.

I've recently installed windows xp over again and when I did it doesn't read the full hdd. so now I have 124 of the full 232.I'm on SP 2 right now and I believe I'm fully updated. I've already attempted partition magic and one I think it was called gnome drive. Both want me to purchase the products so I'm trying to find the free way out.
