No Administrater On Any Computer / C Can Read A But Not B / B Can Read A And C
Nov 6, 2005
I have four computers, three on windows XP and one on Linux. All are connected to the internet via a D Link DI-704. I had to reformat and reload one of my computers yesterday with windows XP and then proceeded to set up the networking. I will call the windows computers A, B and C. I reformatted A. Having run the networking wizard I can now from A read C but not B. B will not let A or C in. I need permission from the administrater. There is no administrater on any computer. C can read A but not B. B can read A and C. Does anybody know what is going on?

My problem is this. A friend has given me a copy of a data base for our club as he is leaving. We both have windows XP MSWord 2003 and MS Works 7 on which the data base was written. I have tried to make my computer read the disk without success. It says �Microsoft Works cannot connect to the data source that contains the information you want to merge. The file may have been deleted, moved or renamed� It supplies the file name and extensions which have made on my computer but without success.

All right here is my story and my problem.I am using router Thomson Speedtouch 780 WL and Windows XP SP 2 Version 2002. Everything worked well until one day my connection dropped and now doesn't work. I reseted router and couldn't set it up again on my PC! (web browser doesn't open router webpage) but it worked everything well for laptop. My PC doesn't say like router would be unplugged, but it says that my connection is "Limited or no connectivity". I can't even use Mail programs/MSN on my PC, but all works on wifi/laptop using cable.My config settings seem to be same as on laptop and I reinstalled my ethernet driver but nothing has got better.

I have had XP Home installed on a new Seagate hard drive for about 2 months. Suddenly, the computer did a restart and now it will not open Windows. It finds all my drives and then goes to a screen displaying "a disc read error has occured. Press control, alt, delete to restart." On restart, I receive the same message. I have tried checkdisc, fix boot and fix master boot record in the recovery console on my cd but nothing works. Is this a problem with the hard drive or Windows? Any suggestions would be helpful. I would hate to have to reinstall Windows.

I have a CD-Rom and CD-R Burner on my Windows XP Pro (SP2) machine. The CD burner will burn data to a 70 min/800 MB CD (and that CD can be read with no problems on other computers), but neither the CD-Rom nor the CD burner will read any 80 min/700 MB CD, even the ones it burned itself. The CD Burner is a Mitsumi CR-4804TE drive, using driver version 5.1.2535.0 (7/1/01), the latest update I can find. Mitsumi has more recent updates, but they do not list WinXP as one of the OS.Not sure of the make of the CD-Rom, WinXp lists it as HL-DT-ST CD-Rom GCR-8483B (same driver as the CD Burner).Is there a general WinXP patch that will enable me to read these CDs? Will the Mitsumi driver work on WinXP Pro?

I have recently experienced problems with my CD-ROM well its a DVD ROM. I was burning CD's fine. then it stopped or would only burn one or two things. I thought it might just need to be cleaned so I went and bought a cleaner. I tried it and now it won't do anything. I bought a brand new CD and it won't even read it at all. I can try others and it does.

This is a NEC ND-3520AW. Worked fine until ? I don't think I installed anything or saw any other contributing factor.
1. The main problem is if I insert a known good CD, when I open the drive which is the D drive in this case it shows no contents. If I take the same CD to another computer and open it I see folders, files, etc.
2. I can write to the drive on a CDR or CDRW fine using Nero.
3. I can boot from the drive using an Ubuntu or other boot disk.

I have a 4GB SD card for my digital camera and when I insert it into the card reader on my laptop it doesn't even show up as being read. I know my card read works because it picks up my sisters card from her camera.I am getting sick of having to whip out the cable and do it that way.If anyone has any advice please share it.

Recently I tried to run my Autocad program. It faulted on an error stating that it couldn't create files in the Temp directory and that I should check to see if it was marked Read Only. I found that the entire drive is marked Read Only. When I went to Properties and tried to reset it to normal it went right back to Read Only. I was able to create a new Adminstrator User on my PC to get around the problem, but that means all my user settings are lost. It appears that I have lost administrative rights to the drive. All my other apps seem to work fine. How do I correct the problem without loosing my current user configurations. Why doesn't Windows XP allow one to copy or save a user configuration?

When I tried installing XP Pro as an upgrade from Windows 2000, it almost
finished the install (34 minutes left) when the computer turned itself off.
This happened several times. I removed the hard drive and reformatted it -
cleaned it off, then reinstalled it. Now when the PC boots up it recognizes
the CD Rom drivs but it will not boot or install from the CD ROM drive. I
created the 6 diskettes to tell the PC to install from the CD Rom drive, and
it gives me an I/O error. The BIOS says to boot off the CD ROM drive but it
won't. What might cause this? A bad hard drive? A bad motherboard?

I'm on a Sony VAIO with Windows XP. When my computer goes into hibernation mode and I try to reboot, I get an error that says, "The system could not be restarted from its previous location due to a read failure." There is one option for me to select which reads "Delete restoration data and proceed to system boot menu."I've done a check disk of all of my hard drives, and none of them turned up anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Upon starting up a Gateway LX laptop, I receive a "A disk read error has occured, press CTRL + ALT + DELETE to restart." Instantly, I know this is bad. So I load in the Windows XP Home disk and boot from the CD. I go to repair and recovery and the console opens up. I run chkdsk and it stop at 13%. Any suggestions. Is the hard drive done? I have backups, I'm just wondering if it's time for a new hard drive.
