after fixing my netbook because of a blank screen, there is no sound from the computer. I checked the sound settings and everything seems to be alright. Also the recovery program seems to be gone.
View 1 RepliesThis evening I was using my netbook to listen to music offline, which was working perfectly well. I then closed the lid, which sent it to sleep, and upon opening it again, everything was going very slowly.
I re-booted the computer, which then took several minutes longer than usual to boot (whilst not booting quickly normally, being a low-powered machine, was a significant length of time longer amounting to around 2 or 3 times longer than normal), and the machine was still incredibly sluggish. It is also now unable to play audio files properly, it plays the first part perfectly coherently and then begins to lag more and more as the media continues. (The same occurs on any video files of any king played in any form)

Everything else seems to be working fine in the background upon boot up and on the desktop, but the cursor won't budge. Tried to open control panel but obviously can't do that with the cursor stuck. Any options the DON'T involve me having to buy a new USB mouse

View 3 Replies View RelatedNiece's netbook (Asus EeePC) running Windows XP has rather suddenly slowed to a real crawl. Think 5 minutes for a right-click menu to open, for example, instead of a split second. Last night I summoned the patience to start up the already-installed AVG virus scanner, and while it took hours and hours, it found zero problems. Ran CCleaner, no change.The desktop, icons, etc. etc. look correct and nothing seems awry except for the intolerable lack of speed. I realize it could still be a virus or malware, although I'm thinking of other explanations as well

I am going to do this: http://rsivanandan.wordpress.com/200...ttings-folder/
Move the Documents and Settings folder to a different drive (sicn the guy who fixed my computer didn't do RAID and so I now have three partitions, of which everything is installed in one).
So... I backed up my registry by doing Export. I want to know how I can fix the registry from this if something goes wrong. I need to be prepared before the computer breaks.
I have an external hard drive that I use quite often. Recently after I restarted my computer, all the partitions on my main hard drive were assigned a drive letter and my external's drive letter was bumped from F: to J: So now F: is set to the 47MB partition built-in to Dells and I can't change its letter assignment because in Disk Management it doesn't give me that option! I can change my external's drive letter easily I just need F: to be available again.
View 7 Replies View RelatedWhen I was trying to make my XP SP3 look like Vista, I changed something for the font.
I used Movefile and a script. When the computer restarted, the font had changed, but is far too big and looks terrible. I didn't save a system restore point and I have tried changing the font size in 'Display Settings', then 'Appearance'. And I have tried changing the DPI setting and the 'Display Settings', 'Settings', then 'Advanced'.
Upon leaving my last company I was given one of the older laptops (too old for anyone to care to use anymore), an IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad. The laptop was purchased with OEM licenses for Windows XP and Office. I have not reinstalled XP on this PC, and although I no longer can connect to my old company's domain, I have been continuing to use the PC by logging on to the domain, as I am not able to log onto the PC in any other way. This is, by the way, annoying for me, because I can access the internet but cannot access my other computers at home since they are not on the "company" domain and so I do not have permission to do so.Now the problem: This laptop is beginning to have some sort of problem, where applications like Firefox just suddenly freeze up and cannot be terminated, not even using Task Manager. I need to hardboot the machine each time as I cannot even shutdown in a normal fashion.
So how is the best way to a) fix this problem and b) get permission to log on to the machine "locally" and not on the company domain? One thing I am thinking about is just re-installing the computer, and I have the Windows XP license info on the label on the bottom of the laptop, and I suppose I can get the office license key using something like ProduKey. It would be nice to avoid having to do this, however, as I do not have the Lenovo CD's and would have to reinstall everything from the net. Any advice on what is best to do? How to find/fix the freezes of software like Yahoo and Firefox? How to get away from the company domain? I as user have admin priviledges to the PC but cannot, for example, touch the antivirus software and that is irritating.
I'm fixing a computer for someone at work. He had an Emachines computer where the ps failed and took the mobo with it.Hard drive is intact and i'm hoping to still use his license of windows and just update it or something. Is this possible, or does he have to go and repurchase windows now? Also, he's upgrading to a core duo processor and mobo, and on the back of the mobo box it says, "Intel EM64T requires a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, OS, device drivers and applications enabled for Intel EM64T. Processor will not operate (including 32-bit operations) without an Intel EM64T-enabled BIOS."Does this mean he needs the 64 bit version of windows now as well, or is regular xp home fine? Is this true for all 64 bit processors?
View 39 Replies View RelatedThere seem to be 2 places in IE to change font size, Tools | Internet Options; Fonts to select the web & plain text fonts and Accessibility to select or ignore font styles & sizes. I simply cannot find the right combination to be able to have consistent
fonts on all pages. If I check "ignore font size" then the pages use my font but the font seems to vary from web page to web page. I have to click the "size" button on the toolbar. With this unchecked some web pages have really BIG fonts and some have such small fonts that I cannot read them and have to select the "ignore font size" again.
I would just like to know if I can fix the problem so then I can see my pictures. What can I do to fix the corrupted files? Can I retrieve my pictures back and if so How?

Reinstalling a sound driver for onboard sound from a pre-packaged XP, I've tried for days to locate my driver with no success.
I just installed a fresh copy of Windows XP service pack 2 and for some reason the sound doesn't work.
http://support.gateway.com/s/PC/R/3724/3724sp25.shtml
Here is my computer. I tried downloading the sound drivers and restarted ,but I'm still not getting any sound
After a while my sound will cut out and when I try to play things in Winamp or anything it will stay stuck @ 0:00The sounds will sputter for a second and then freeze. Also when the sound dies, sometimes programs will start to freeze up to the point I can't even kill them in tskmgr. System sounds don't play either.I've tried updating to the latest drivers. I tried an older version of the drivers too.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHey Guys,
If anyone could help me with this, it would be great. Right...
The other day my computer started throwing up error messages. I wasn't using it at the time. The only thing I had done recently was install the latest Nokia PC Suit.
The error messages were along the line of "file not a proper windows image...."
It was impossible to do a lot as most things failed, and I could only just managed to do a few things in safe mode. I managed to run a registry cleaner which got rid of 100's of files. I then managed to run chkdsk/f, this also cleaned up alot of files. After a reboot I got the message ntoskrnl.exe missing or corrupt. I managed to re-install this file. I thought all good. BUt now it boots and got passed the windows logo and then nothing! Just blank screen, nothing happens, hdd silent!!
So if you guys have any idea's as to whats wrong, fix's pretty please let me know.
Mucho thanks!
I recently upgraded my OS to WinXP Pro from WinME, and there is no sound. I right-click My computer, go to properties, hardware, device manager, then there are 2 yellow circles with exclamation points in them under Multimedia Audio Controller (Intel 82801AA ac'91 Audio Controller), and Unknown Device (Microsoft MPU-401 Compatible MIDI Device). I tried to reinstall them, but it says There was a problem installing this hardware: Intel 82801AA AC'97 Audio Controller. An error occured during the installation of the device. The data is invalid.
