Mar 13, 2009i have windows XP home edition service pack 3. and i use Microsoft office 2003, and well recently it began to pop up and say microsoft office word has not been installed for current user. please run setup utility. Well i only have one user, never had another user created until recently (temporary fix) is there anything i can do, the main user is called the owner, it says its the computer admin, but i guess there is still an admin user, i cant get to that. the only way i can get ms office to work was to create a new user, open all the office programs, export the office registry, and import it to my main user, thats the only thing that works, for a little bit.

Feb 23, 2007http://edition.cnn.com/2007/TECH/0 [...] index.html
Quote :NEW YORK (Reuters) -- A U.S. federal jury found that Microsoft Corp. infringed audio patents held by Alcatel-Lucent and should pay $1.52 billion in damages, the No. 1 software maker said Thursday.
Microsoft said it plans to first ask the trial judge to knock down the ruling and will appeal if necessary. It said the verdict is unsupported by the law and that it had already licensed the technology in question from Germany's Fraunhofer.
Alcatel-Lucent had accused the world's biggest software maker of infringing patents related to standards used for playing MP3 digital music files.
Microsoft - OEM - MS DOS And PC DOS
Nov 4, 2005I can remember back when there was MS DOS - NEC DOS - PC DOS - Phoenix DOS. The differences were hardware support and some had a few of thier unique commands and utilities included. Some where along the line Microsoft was able to reign in DOS and then there were two MS DOS and PC DOS.I tried to upgrade my new HP/COMPAQ from XP HOME to XP PRO. After about 6 hours of effort with Microsoft Suooprt and HP Support the answer is:Andre K (HP Tech): Toby, this Desktop was shipped with an OEM version of Windows XP home operating system. HP does not support operating system upgrades provided by Microsoft. You need to purchase the upgrade CDs from HP to resolve this issue.

Apr 4, 2007My Dell desktop runs XP Pro. My Dell laptop also runs XP Pro. For some reason my laptop hard drive got corrupted and/or wiped virtually clean, and the computer will not boot. Unfortunately, I don't have a reinstallation disk for the laptop. I was thinking of using the desktop's reinstallation CD to load Windows onto the laptop. But then I remembered reading something about the activation process for XP, and am worried that if I then have 2 computers with XP loaded from the same disk, Microsoft will somehow pick up on this and deactivate one or both.Technically, I'll have 2 XP installations after having paid for 2 separate versions and licenses, but I don't know if Microsoft would buy this, especially since I don't have the receipt for the laptop (it's 6 yrs old).Is my concern justified, or just unnecessary worry? I'd hate to be sitting with 2 unusable computers?
View 14 Replies View RelatedSP3 Better Than SP2 - Microsoft Update
Sep 11, 2008know that it has been a long time since service pack 3 was available for download on the automatic updates for windows, and it is just now that I've decided to update my SP2 to SP3. I've been looking for reviews all around the net and I've found mixed reviews on SP3. And it's got me thinking if I should update or not.
So here are my questions . Is SP3 safer than SP2? Is it faster than SP1 or SP2? (Like increased OS speed) Are there no bugs on SP3? (Like software incompatibilities, etc.) Anything I should be aware of before I install SP3? I've read in some blogs and other forums that you should uninstall some things on your computer for you to update to SP3 successfully.I also read that some users got lots of errors when they updated to SP3, is this true? Is SP3 MUCH BETTER than SP2?
SP2 Upgrade CD From Microsoft

Jul 19, 2005I have this problem where I was not able to send or receive using Microsoft Fax (for WinXP and 2000). I'm using a GPRS modem which I have got working for other fax softwares like Symantec and MightyFax. I was able to establish a connection but was not able to send or receive. I can hear the ringing sound from the remote fax machine I was dialing but no fax was received there. Error message is "An error occurred while sending/receiving fax". For Win2000, I was only able to send but even then, the fax was not clear.

May 9, 2007For a while now, I haven't been able to download anything from microsoft.com. I'm running XP Pro, verified and all that, and I was trying to use IE 7 and even the latest firefox to download. No dice. I've had to go onto a friend's computer to download .net 2.0. I've even tried turning off my McAfee firewall briefly, but that still doesn't help. As usual, Microsoft's support has been useless. I'd greatly appreciate any help with this problem.

Mar 18, 2010Windows Internet Explorer 9 won't support any operating system earlier than Windows Vista SP2.The reason IE9 doesn't work in XP is that it uses the Direct2D feature of DirectX when accessing the graphics hardware to accelerate image creation and drawing. Direct2D was introduced in Windows 7, and then added to Windows Vista SP2 and Windows Server 2008 R2—but not to Windows XP.

Sep 1, 2009Microsoft Automatic Updates keeps notifying me that they want to update my system to Windows 8 (I have Windows 6). I do not want to upgrade to 8 and and hit cancel which is my only offered option other than install.How do I stop this notification permanently? The icon shows up in my task bar and I also can't remove it from there! I use Automatic Update for security and other vital updates--Windows 8 is not vital to me. Is Microsoft forcing me to upgrade because 6 support will stop in the near future. Sites like Facebook are already notifying me that my browser is not compatible with their web site and I should change.I want to stay with what I have because I am comfortable with IE6 and Outlook Express 6. I am not interested in going to Firefox or Google options.
