I have a home network of three computers connected to a Linksys router which is connected to a cable modem to Road Runner. In one machine I am running W2K Professional with IIS 5.0. I am trying to build a web site consisting of a large number of web pages and associated .jpg, .gif and .mp3 files. The W2K Pro machine, which is running IIS 5.0, always creates a bugcheck error and reboots after I enter the URL to the web pages in questions. The requests are entered from a XP Pro machine on the local network. The W2K machine bugchecks and reboots whenever I kill a browser session and then restart it. The Event viewer in the W2K Pro machine shows an error message that says, "A duplicate name has been detected on the TCP network. The IP address of the machine that sent the message is in the data. Use the nbtstat -n " I cannot do any of this as the the machine bugchecks and reboots. All machines on the local network are configured for DHCP for compatability with Road Runner. My W2K Pro machine is current with SP4 plus updates. The machine I am using for the browser is XP Pro current to SP2 plus updates since.
I'm running Windows XP on a stand-alone pc. I have Norton Internet Security/Anti-Virus installed. I have encountered a pop up window (which will not go away) with the message "New Network Detected". It wants me to select home, office, etc.I don't have any windows firewall enabled, but have Norton taking care of it instead.The consensus I'm getting is get rid of Norton, it stinks. But I would think there could be something simpler/makes more sense to do.
My wireless connection says that it is connected to the network, but can't connect to the internet. Tried to repair through MSN and said that my default gateway is down or something of that nature.
I have a built in wireless card in my Dell D610 laptop. Every time my computer wakes up it gives me a notice that it has detected a wireless network somewhere (even if it is secured or is very weak. This is annoying. Can someone tell me how to stop this, or at least cause the notice to disappear after 1 second, rather than after about 20 seconds?
This message keeps popping up every so often.. is it legitimate? or is it just a part of a pop-up ad/adware/etc.?

I recently had to restore my XP system, everything appeared to be working great. I have been cleaning out duplicate pictures and such on my computer. Today I went to a search of all pictures on my computer. From there I do a List and sort by size, after that I click on images so I can see if there are duplicates on my files. There is duplicates of everything however when i look into the file containing the pictures or documents it shows that both of the items are in the same location. When I go to that location there is only one of the items. Does anyone know why my search is showing duplicates of everything however they have the same path.
I am at a loss as to why everything is duplicated on my computer, especially because when you look where they are located they are in the exact same files.
I keep having this message pop up:Windows System Error- A duplicate name exists on the network.How can I get rid of this annoyance?I only have one computer. Have had it 4 months. This just started happening about 2 weeks ago.HP a730n computer with Windows XP Home Edition
In the startup folders of the start menu, if the items are in the user's startup folder, they don't start up. If the item is in the All Users startup folder, they open twice. This is evident as well when looking at startup items in msconfig. If the items are in the user's startup folders, they don't appear in msconfig, but when they are in the All Users folder, they appear twice, once as "Common Startup" and once as "Startup"
I downloaded a registry checker and it had a thing in it I could see if I had any duplicate files....HOLY SHAMOLY, there are a ton of them, I am afraid to delete....see below, can someone advise on which is safe to delete? trying to clean up computer. Kindest regards, Christine....OH MY, there are so many I posted two sets and they are too long to post. Maybe just advise me on if I can delete one if there are 2?
I did a drive scan with HD Cleaner and found over 5,000 duplicate files. A lot of them are the windows/servicepackfiles/i386 directory. is it ok to delete these duplicates?
Hi I've recently had a virus on my PC and I finally got rid of it but it duplicated a lot of files on my computer. Is there a way to get rid of them without having to go through Windows Explorer and look at each folder and file?
Copied "My Documents" folder from thumb drive to the computer . Noticed several folders in "My Documents" were missing so thought I didn't back up to the thumb drive often enough so figured they were lost in the crash.
Wasl looking for a file and was unsure in which folder it might be located so did a "search" and found it in "My Documents". Went back to the "My Documents" folder and it wasn't there so did another search. This is what I discovered:
I went into Windows Explorer and found "My Documents"
I went into "My Computer" and then the "C" drive and found Documents and Settings, Gary, My Documents in the tree
i've duplicate folders in certain folders but i can't delete them, the folder has the same name but under it there is a detail "gy". the folder shape is slight bigger and straight. what to do?
I have noticed rather a lot of duplicate entries in my registry I enclose an example below, can I delete them? AcroPDF.FDF AcroPDF.FDF.1 the CLSID data is exactly the same.
is there anyway to eliminate duplicate files? i know i have to have a ton of them having reinstalled everything.
i would prefer not to use Norton......have had nothing but bad experiences with them. is there any kind of system built in to XP i could run to try and locate and eliminate these files?
Just went in to My Documents looking for a photo & discovered that I have 2 of everything in My Documents. The second copy has the same name but with (1) after it. I've run Malewarebytes, Spybot, AVG. Adaware and nothing shows up. what happened and is there an easy way to get rid of all the duplicates? I have Windows XP on a Dell desk top....
I recently ran dupfinder 2.0 from windows xp pro on my lap top which runs windows xp media center 2005 sp2 My laptop is a Gateway mx6955 intel t1400@1.83ghz .99gb ram I have 9049 duplicate files on my C: using up 1,508,429 kb of space I am stuck on which duplicate files i can delete safely I have emailed Gatewy several times
I want to purge my system from "true" duplicate files. However, when I tried to do so in the past, I ran duplicate file finders, and deleted files which were supposedly duplicates. I then had to locate and reload a number of them because I began to have inconsistencies in my system. My system presently shows a large number of duplicates, but how can I be assured they are before I delete them?
this should be easy for you forum guys (and gals).. anybody knows a good (and free) software that can find duplicate files on an HD so i can get some HD real estate back?
I know how most of you feel about duplicate file finders they are really not safe and it is best to just leave duplicate files alone.I somewhat agree, however,I would really like to try a really good and safe duplicate file finder that is " relative safe " in your opinion. I was thinking of a color coded program perhaps that maybe had ' green ' or some other color as SAFE to delete.
I have Windows XP Sp2 whe i try to chanhe ip in "Local Area Connection" i got following message:" Network Connetion Folder was unable to retrive the list of network Adapters":i checked "Services" .Ok working fine then what 's the problem??
I'm running Windows XP, which has been fairly unstable as late, and thinking it might be because of an overful hard drive, I recently moved several gigabites of music etc. off my main drive (C and onto my second drive (F. Unfortunately, this now means that i'm wasting a fair bit of space on my F drive, as I already exported most-but-not-all of these files to my iTunes music files so I could put them easily onto my iPod. I'd like to free up this space again, but since the files are all in one large folder and not very well organised, it's gonna be a nightmare going through them all and just deleting the ones that are already in iTunes. Does anyone know a simple and effective way of deleting these duplicate files, but keeping ones that aren't duplicates where they are? I don't mind downloading freeware/shareware but I can't afford anything retail at the moment

How does one delete duplicate context-menu entries in XP?For example, if I right click on a .gif image file or .jpg image file, TWO "Preview"'s show up in the right context menu - one bolded, the other not. One opens with one application, the other with a different application.I have already attempted to go to Folder options, File Types, Advanced, and try and "find & fix" from thre, but never came across the dups.
