First my computer was cutting off in the middle of any program. I decided to delete everything on the drive and reformat it and reload windows xp. While trying to load windows xp it would load the set up but when going to load files it locked up everytime. I tried also loading windows 98, 95 and they too locked up. At one point it said I had a virus in my boot sector and at another time it said I had a virus in my RAM. I got a program called PC Beginner to help partition my drive and redo the MBR. I can partition the drive and format it but windows still doesn't load. Now I wonder if there is a problem with the mother board and I have a dual bios board, I was wonder if there is a program loaded in the dual bios that may somehow causing my problem. If so what can be done to clear the problem? How can I get windows reloaded?
it found the virus on the F hdd which u guys know its not the main one ...it was(virus) found on a folder i can't even see i have the "show hidden folders" on so why can't i see those folders ? i am more worried about that than the virus since my software found it im okay with it lol but i just reinstalled my os and i get a virus found on a folder i didn't know xcisted wtfuge ! ! and i have folder that are just named kinda like this "5e56dc46768be0474974c759ab4690" on some hdd any ideas? oh and i can't erase them why?
Out of nowhere in the C drive come these folders. They are named FOUND.000 on up through FOUND.025. Inside the folders are various numbers of files that are named in this way FILE0000.CHK, FILE0001.CHK, FILE0002.CHK. what are they and what should I do?
PC was rebooted and this message showed up. I couldn't get to safe mode so I put the XP disc in. I got to the D:winint dir and tried to run bootcfg to scan for the boot file. It came back that it couldn't find it. I was able to see the dir's and data on the 2 drives. I ran chkdsk to see if that would solve the problem, it didn't. Do you think this is a BIOS problem or a missing boot problem. If it was the BIOS would I be able to read the drive. Looking for a fix without destroying everything.
My computer randomly started displaying this error upon start up a week ago and I have no clue what is causing it. I googled it and seen that it could be caused by a linksys wireless router, one was installed on the system before, but has been uninstalled for quite some time now. Can anyone help me correct this or at least help me figure out what is causing it?
I was wondering what the difference was whether you had a program load at startup (by checking a box within the program to have it load when the computer boots) and unchecking that box but moving a shortcut to the programs executable into the startup folder on the start menu.

MFC42U.dll was not found. Search of computer reveals file not on computer. Google found many advertising free download but when visiting sites want you to download a scan for dll issues and many want a fee.Very leery of these sites.
When starting up my Dell computer, running Microsoft XP, I get an error every time I start up. I'm just not sure what this error is - I have been having performance issues with the computer lately and am not sure if this error is related. The error says: CoreFoundation.dll was not found.

i bought a ASUS motherboard about 8 months ago its a A8V Deluxe i believe and when it boots it says detecting BIOS then a bunch of. then it says BIOS NOT FOUND!
I just installed XP on my new rig; I then put in the motherboard CD and got that all installed. However, when trying to install the USB 2.0 drivers a text message comes up saying that I don't need to install the drivers if I have XP SP2.My problem is that when I try to put in ANY usb device windows does not detect it, so I cannot use my printer or external hard drive.Anyone know what's wrong? Is it a BIOS problem? Or do I have to find the drivers somewhere? Or are my USB things broken?

I turned my laptop on (and had done nothing special with it the day before) and everything looked as if I had just reinstalled Windows (default desktop appearance, default start menu.)I was able to log off from that account (which I never created to begin with) and log into my own account normally.And my computer has been doing the same thing ever since So I tried to delete that new account in the User Accounts menu, but the thing is after I log off from it, this account is no where to be found. The only way I am able to see it in the User Accounts menu is by switching user, not logging off (which disables me from deleting the account).I found out this way that it is an administrator account.

I found some windows xp tweaks that supposedly speed up xp on the following link, the ones I am referring to are the stickied threads. I think the Master Tutorial one is ok, but I am unsure about 10 ways to speed up xp.This is because I found this site (and also because the poster is a 13 year old, although many older people inlcuding admin and mods have posted and have not said anything about them being myths):So, is this second site reliable and correct? I have used CCleaner to do something with the prefetch, so should I use the download on this site?
Many people have a problem with the 'found new hardware' dialog popping up when there is no new hardware. I have a problem with it popping up when I DO add hardware but it shouldn't pop up.I am trying to install an i/o magic dvd burner when the 'fnh' dialog pops up and wants to install a driver. Problem is it is supposed to use a windows default driver and automatically install.That is what their tech support said and was of no further use.Same problem with an Ipaq pocketPC.Activesync should automatically recognize it when cradled but does not.A digital camera and keyboard that used to work fine on this computer some time ago now has the same issue.I think this is an XP issue and not hardware because all these devices work properly on another computer and I believe the usb ports are fine because I do have an external hd that works fine.The computer recognizes the device when plugged in-canon digital camera, logitech keyboard, usb 2.0 optical device- but fails to properly find or install the driver.
I have a usb 2.0 pc card and have the exact same behavior through that as with the built-in usb 1.1 ports and the pc card slots are definetely working properly because a wi-fi card works without issue.Device manager shows that usb ports and usb 2.0 adapter are working properly but whatever I plug in shows as a yellow ! and says it may not work (duh!)Please help. I can't handle many more 3:00 nights!

clicks on the internet it states that the page could not be found, please go to internet options etc clear cookies. We do all this but it doesn't seem to work, the only thing that works is turning the machine off and restarting it. I rang Dell and Tiscali, neither have been able to help, the computer sends and recieves all 4 packets, they have disconnected the internet connection and reinstalled it, they said they were going to test the line and ring us back but this never happened. I am a complete novice with computers and my mum knows even less
