View 1 RepliesTwo computers running windows xp professional and each computer has 3 different NIC cards. 1 wireless, 1 wired through switch and 1 wired directly. I used the network setup wizard to configure file sharing however neither computer can see the other's shared folders. The only firewall running is the default windows firewall. I suspect it has something to do with the different NIC cards and it is trying to find shared folders using the wireless as opposed to through the LAN.

I don't know exactly where to post this because I have two issues.I setup a network to share the internet connection and the only personal computer I am experiencing trouble with is the one running windows XP Home the others are running XP pro.Is there something wrong with XP home. I can't get my adapter to work with the personal computer running XP home but one of the personal computer running XP pro has no trouble. I also have a printer that will not work with the XP home.

The only problem is that it takes 5-10 seconds to open any program from a desktop shortcuts(AVG,Spyboot,Nero, Winamp).It is not a big deal but maybe somebody have some simple solution. This had been happening for the last couple of years and a few months ago I reinstalled Windows(clean install) but nothing changed.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIf I click on any existing Excel file in "recent documents", excel loads then the file loads - then an error message is displayed that advises: - "A document with the name [doc name] is already open. You cannot open ". No - I didn't double click the doc name and it happens with ANY document in the list of "recent documents". The same thing happens in Windows Explorer (but here I have to double click). If I start Excel then open an existing document there's no problem.

I can open excel itself, but just no files. old or new.When I open Word it says "The file filename is unavailable" Then when I close it, it is telling me that "The file normal already exists. do you want to replace it?" if i click yes it goes away but still wont open my file next time. If i click no it tries to save in to the TEMPLATES FILE under NORMAL. My Norton Antivirus has also taken away my privileges so I can edit the updates and Norton Internet Security says that the file cannot be found when I click on the desktop icon. The Norton Internet Security icon has disappeared off my task bar. I've been trying to download updates for windows, but it wont alow me too

With Explorer I end up hitting cancel about 10 times and it takes about 30 seconds and it asks me for a CD I don't have, I hit cancel some more, and then Explorer finally loads. With Word and Excel, I just hit cancel once, and then Word and Excel never do load.

View 8 Replies View RelatedAm attempting to delete three old zip/unzip driver folders so I can install updated versions of the drivers, but every time I go to delete, a warning pops-up stating ...."nothing to do"......, then it slowly (crawls, actually) begins, stating..... "deleting from archive". The files are full, so there's obvious data that needs to be removed despite the warning that there's nothing to do. At the speed this thing is deleting, if at all, it will take days. My question is, why can't I do a conventional uninstall/deletion the way most files are deleted, and why is it requiring so much time? (FYI, once this process starts, the only way to stop it is to do a CTRL-ALT-DELETE- just canceling doesn't do a thing), I have to remove thes drivers before installing the new versions. Is there another method of removing these files
View 3 Replies View RelatedI was having this problem on my old install of XP, which desperately needed a new install. In any case, I'm now using a freshly installed version of XP, and everything has been running perfectly for about 2 weeks. Suddenly, this one problem reappears: The File Open / Save As dialog box (aka Windows Common Control / comctl32.dll) takes forever to open (20 seconds to 60 seconds). I just did a chkdsk and defrag, and that did not solve the problem. Also, there are no network drives connected which could be slowing things down. This happens in both MS programs (such as Notepad) and 3rd party programs (such as Firefox).
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a problem that I do not know how to fix. My system is windows xp pro, it is very slow and unresponsive. It takes awhile to get the control panel to respond and the icon Network Connections does not want to open.It takes a few min. then it finally shows no connections. When I try to set up a connection I get the error: an exception occurred while trying to run netshell.dll,STARTNCW.I tried doing regsvr32 netshell.dll with start run and it said:Load Library Failed- The specific Module could not be found.The file netshell.dll is in the system 32 folder and in a folder dealing to Service Pack 2.I tried doing a chkdsk and it didn't catch anything. I also ran spy ware and anti virus software on the drive and nothing came up.I just did start run: regsvr32 netshell.dll regsvr32 netcfgx.dll regsvr32 netman. dll. These things error out. So i ran that sfc /scannow and it did its thing and asked for the windows disk and so i put it in (with sp2). I sat there it finished, and nothing happened so i restarted after like 10min.I then did all of these again:regsvr32 netshell.dll regsvr32 netcfgx.dll regsvr32 netman.dll And go the error the specific module cannot be found.

I do have it set so that it remembers (most of the time) to re-open that folder with the file view it was in when it was closed, but I want XP to open every new and old folder with the "file details" view. Seems like a simple thing, but I can't get XP to understand that's what I want.
