Jul 29, 2009I brought her computer home to use for my school work. Someone signed into the Administrative / Owner name and somehow locked it. We don't have one of those password reset disk that the Windows website says. I have a disk that says "Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition System Recovery CD/DVD" I was told if I reinstalled Windows on the computer that it would erase the entire harddrive. There are alot of pictures on the computer, not to mention Microsoft Office, that I don't want to lose. My mom passed away suddenly and while I know her other passwords, this one is different which leads me to believe one of my younger cousins was messing with her computer and did something they didn't mean.Is there anyway possible to reset the password and use the computer without losing all the pictures on it?

Browsers And Pidgin Died When Installed Router
Jul 2, 2010It all started about a week ago when i upgraded at home from cable modem + router to a Cisco combo provided by the ISP - Cisco EPC2425. We have 5 PC's running locally - 2 physical and 3 wireless, and out of them my PC is the one with the problem, the rest are just fine - i'm typing this from one of the laptops.I run XP Pro SP2 Version 2002. The PC is a E6300 with 2x2GB of DDR2 800 ram, motherboard is Gigabyte EP31-DS3L, and video is a Leadtek 8600GT.I use the same software for close to 2yrs now - only difference is the AV which has been Kaspersky 2010 for 3months.I use the XP firewall.As browsers i use the latest Firefox with NoScript and the latest Opera.The problem was that soon after we put in the new combo my browsers died. Pidgin has issues, Opera actually manages to check a page.I have tried repairing the connection, uninstalling the connection, uninstalling the LAN, disabling noscript, changing my DNS - it is taken automatically from the router and the router has DHCP and i'm not really sure that i managed to change it either, and even reinstalling the OS. Reinstalling the OS seemed to fix the problem, i did not have it for almost 5 days, but all of the sudden, it's back, and it wasn't simply in full effect, it was gradual. It started as pages taking longer to load, having to refresh constantly to get them to work and after a restart, they stopped working altogether, yet Opera is still working - not sure for how long though.MMO's work, WoW and EVE have no issues on the affected PC.I'll try to be a bit more clear. Router was installed, my browsers died, everything that would require a DNS died, and so did pidgin - i use google and MSN on it. I reinstalled the OS, and it worked fine for 5 days, than it started again. Current status is MSN not functioning, Firefox not functioning, Google talk functioning 50% of times, and Opera still functioning - not sure for how long.PS: No, i did not have norton installed.

Jun 27, 2006I have a Pavilion M50 monitor that i'm using for my computer with windows 2000. The monitor works fine and all, but the microphone that comes attached doesnt.(comes with a cable that plugs into the mic jack)I thought this might be a driver problem, as windows simply recognizes the Monitor as a "Plug and Play Monitor" and when trying to download the driver from the HP support site it essentially said that the Pavilion M50 had no driver for Windows 2000/XP.I don't have another micropohne to plug into the jack, only USB ones which work fine. The Audio output of the jack right beside it works fine so i don't believe it is the sound card driver.
View 5 Replies View RelatedRecovery System On HP Pavilion
Oct 8, 2007I have been trying to help a friend update or correct her winxp on her HP pavilion 520w I have a copy of my winxp cd from my dell system however I dont have the product key code to use it. So I have tried repeatedly to reset her computer to boot from her cdrom without success. I even posted here last week and someone suggested to tap the delete key when rebooting to change the boot sequence. I wasnt able to get it to work. However I did accidently discover that tapping F10 brings up the Recover system on her computer. Not knowing exactly for sure if I could just correct her winxp with recoverying the whole system I turned off the computer to stop it. I have 3 questions if the Recovery System on this HP model allows you to correct a current copy of your windows without reformatting? how to set this HP model to reboot from the CD-rom?

Mar 7, 2008I am new to this forum so please help me out. I am 64 years old and selftaught so I know little about PC. My son gave me the PC 2 years ago. I use it for email and search and browse things on PC. Lately it has a lot of popups, adds and loud rap music (even I din't run any program). Nothing on the screen except the sound on the speakers. I had tried everything, but no success for eliminate them. I tried to reformat my PC, but when I got to that point, it won't allow me to do so, because it said that ONLY one copy can be done and I don't know if my son already copied it or not. I couldn't find the system recovery disk. I know that it has a partition for recovery but I couldn't open it. So finally I called the HP customer services to buy a replacement for the system recovery disk. These guys want to do it then, but I wasn't ready yet, my data still not backup yet. I refused to do so and request only the disk. Finally the disk came and I finished backup my files, but I didn't know that I had to back up my drivers. so now I can't find the driver and stuck with the blue screen with a bunch of things that I had to check and a lot of numbers.A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.

Jan 17, 2006I've got a HP pavilion 533w that I'm trying to fix for a friend of mine. First I ordered the recovery disks from HP and they don't work because of bad or corrupted files. I've tried 2 different hard drives, same thing. I tried loading Windows XP Professional but it fails after loading the drivers and does not respond at "Setup Is Starting Windows". Any ideas so far? I did get Windows 2000 load and everything working except the printer. When I install the HP psc 1210v all-in-one the driver fails and the printer won't print. This is a USB printer by the way.
