View 2 RepliesXP PRO, sp3: Was working on a friend's computer. Slaved his hard drive to my system. I put in Windows CD and hit Enter to repair an existing installation. I decided to give it a run, so I started the repair process. And of course, as soon as I did, I realized I was on the WRONG INSTALLATION (mine, which was working - not my friend's)! The operation hadn't yet started - at least according to the progress bar - and the screen said something like, "Setup is loading" or "Setup is preparing" or something like that.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an oldish comp - about...8 years old, but since I have had it I have done various upgrades over the years, so currently its running:...I have got it running Win98SE, but now have some spare copies of WinXP Home and Pro. I have checked the minimum sys requirements of WinXP, and it fits the minimum, BUT: is it worth it? Would installing WinXP just slow it down more?
The main motovation to upgrade is that I have found that a number of anti-virus programs wont run properly since version udates (example, AVG 6 to 7), and so I thought if I use a spare copy of WInXP, I could make it more secure by being able to run the programs properly (kind of an oximoron, installing WinXP for security...) Anyhow, is it worth doing? or will it just be really slow? If so, is there anyway i can delete what is undeeded, or do tweaking to make it run effectively?
It is frustrating having every program automatically install to program files, including minor things like audio attachment. I know I'll end up with tons and tons of folders in program files. Beyond that, I can't access program files from the other computers on the network. Is there a good way to reorganize/move files to my C drive in a way that would be efficient and wouldn't require reinstalling every single program in a different place?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an HP Pavilion dv6110us laptop that is running on Windows XP Media Center Edition Version 2002, and I'm using CA Security Center 2008, which was a recent upgrade that I installed. I'm experiencing similar problems that RHCPfreak21 had reported (system freezing, Task Manager taking forever to open and end a program, etc.). Also, after startup, Internet Explorer won't open, so I have to restart, and then it opens. At shutdown, I've been receiving the following messages:
AXWIN Frame Window
DDE Server
mdmcls32.exe
I've run several virus scans, and thank goodness none were found. However, the spyware scans found some files. Per your instructions to RHCPfreak21, I ordered AdWareSE 2007 to fix the AXWIN Frame Window error, and it found 19,372 infected files. All the files were from Wildtangent games. I started experiencing these problems the day after my niece had used my computer, and she likes to play Poker. She evidently went to a site that unleashed malware or something onto my computer without her knowing it. I'll find out tonight when I shutdown if it took care of the AXWIN Frame Window error. I hope so. I've also contacted Microsoft for the "hotfix" to fix the DDE Server message. I'm still waiting to hear from them.
Has anyone had a problem with a pop-up using the above name and freezing your computer? Can anyone tell me if this is a legit Microsoft product and website or not?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI am running XP Pro and have two accounts on my computer. Last night when my wife signed in on her account (I was previously signed in) she noticed a PONG sound which repeated itself about every five seconds. She doesn't remember exactly when it started but she thinks it started after she signed in and before starting any applications. I couldn't locate a source so I turned off her computer hoping whatever was causing it would cease and desist.No such luck. The same thing happed again tonight. I signed on first with no problem, but shortly after she signed on to her account the ponging started again. This time I did a restart and signed on to her account first. Great! No pong sound! But as soon as I signed into my own account it started again. In fact it is happening right now as I write this. Can you hear it? I am running ProcessGuard and RegDefend, along with a slew of antispyware. Nothing has come up, and my computer seems to be running fine otherwise. Anyone have any ideas what is causing this? I have never heard of this before (pun intended).
