Photos On CD - Correctly Renaming
Jan 12, 2007
i have a collection of pictures on my pc,tranferred on to hard drive from a digital camera.they cover sep-dec'06. i have put them all,individually, in a folder,having renamed them to a,b,c, --- etc,to get them to burn to cd-r in sequence. i use xp's 'burn to cd' facility.however,they still come out jumbled and not in sequence as desired. i believe there is a way of correctly renaming them for this purpose but i can not remember how. i seem to remember some article suggesting using 0000/0001/0002 numbering etc to achieve this.is this correct/ correct numbering sequence?

I'm trying to change some settings and file names.Specifically,I would like to know if there is anyway at all I can change the Documents and Settings folder. Not the All Users one, but the folder with my friends' name on it. The system is telling me this folder cannot be changed, but sort of reinstalling XP, isn't there some "back door" method I can employ?

In Ubuntu and Vista, the filetype extension is shown when you press F2, only the file name, without the extension, is renamed by default.In XP, you can pick just one or the other, by default.Is there a hack to allow both to happen at the same time?

I would like to rename a Windows system folder, specifically: "C:Documents and SettingsDAVID..."As this information is visible when surfing the web. I have tried doing it the usual way and am presented with a dialogue box saying: "DAVID... is a system folder and is required for windows to run properly. It cannot be moved or renamed."

I would like to change the name of my profile folder under the Docs/settings folder to match my laptop. The Desktop has the generic "owner" that shows
up after hard drive restoration with my restore disk. I should have created a new profile when I did this, but I forgot and reinstalled everything into the Owner folder.I realize that I cannot just rename the folder due to reg settings. How can I achieve this.

I am using Windows XP Home OS. I have formatted a CD-R disc using Direct CD format utility. When I try to create a new folder on this CD and rename it after the "new folder" appears, the system crashes and reboots itself. I have been able to do this without any problem before and this has suddenly just occurred. I can't be sure if this is the first time I have tried this since updating to SP2. Can this be a problem with Windows Explorer?

As the title states, whenever I right click on a file, beit on the desktop or in a folder somewhere, it can take anywhere between 10 and 20 seconds before I can click on "Delete" or "Rename". When I try clicking on one of the two, my CD drive (or hard drive?) starts spinning and it won't let me click on my desired action until it's up to its "cruising speed" in RPM.

I am having an issue on one PC when renaming image files (.bmp).For example I have 2 images square.bmp = image of a square circle.bmp = Image of a circle If I rename sqaure.bmp to squareTest.bmp and then rename circle.bmp to square.bmp. The thumbnail image that displays for circle.bmp will change to square. If I then change it back to circle.bmp the image will go back to be the correct circle.

In documents and settings a folder has been named after the old manager of this shop. How can I change the name to something else? In this folder are .java, cookies, and desktop folders.

I have a client whose computer has stopped reacting to "alt-tab" hot key (ie. switching between screens).Let's say you are in IE (any app does the same)Currently, if you hold down Alt (like you are getting ready to hit tab), it will highlight the File option from the menu screen. It acts just like it would if you clicked on "Alt" once. If you hit "Alt-Tab" it doesn't do anything different.Things we have done:
1. Tried using the other alt button - same thing
2. Tried installing MS Power Tool for Alt-Tab - same problem
3. Tried installing an app called Alt-Tab Thingy - this was interesting but I didn't catch the full message. It said something like Hot-Keys not enabled or cannot access Hot-Keys.
4. Reboot - same problem..Since then, we have uninstalled the Alt-Tab Thing application and are still stuck with this strange issue.

I was aware that Windows used to have limitations on the size of Hard Disk Drives for file sizes etc. but I had thought that these had now been fixed with XP & XP PRO. I installed a new 250GB into a friends machine about a month ago & this went without incident. Yesterday I just put into an external caddie a USB2 drive of 300GB into my machine. XP Pro recognizes the drive & it will work but my computer displays the size as only 127GB which is less than half 's true size.

I've just recently purchased a system within a week only to find that my wired optical mouse has stopped working correctly. It sporadically moves from place to place and at times is completely unresponsive. The weird thing is that every once in a while, the power on the mouse completely turns off (no light coming from it). I am certain the USB mouse works as it has been tested in another computer.

I have a new HP m1070y media center computer that came with the OS already installed on it (XP media center edition 2005). I was looking at the system event log and I see scores of errors with the event ID of 7011. I could not find information that was detailed and specific enough to help me. Out of curiosity, I ran SFC /scannow to see if any clues would arise from that. When it got near the end of running it discovered a half-dozen DLL's that were missing that "may cause windows to not function correctly". No details were given as to what DLL's were missinng it simply asked for disc 2 of the XP Pro set. I do not have a XP Pro disc set because the OS and recovery partition are pre installed. I did not see any way to browse for the files that are missing. Is there an alternate way of replacing those missing files without having to purchase XP pro? Perhaps the DLL's are missing by design since the removal of of domain capabilities in MCE2005? Are there other utilities that can pin-point exactly which files are missing so that I can replace them manually?

I have a very specific issue here with user wallpapers. I have about 20 remote offices or so that are set up with a company wallpaper and we are using BGInfo so they can easily tell us the info we need to support them. Many computers are on sales floors and we need to keep them from changing the wallpaper for obvious reasons. I have tried the solutions of using a Group Policy, changing the registry keys, denying permission to registry keys, etc . . .
All of these solutions either have the problem that the user can still right click an image and set it as the background (IE, Firefox, Paint, Image Viewer), or it does not let BGInfo work correctly. I have spent a couple days searching forums everywhere and cannot find a a solution yet.

I installed 512MB PC3200 to my Windows XP Sony Vaio PC. The little white clamps clicked into place.
when I right click to see the system summary, it still says 502 RAM. I thought it would read 1 gig (?)
Is there something I need to do?
Do I take ut the old memory and then add two (new) more memory chips to increase the memory? Or do I just put in an additional memory chip?

hello fellow CNET members, I am in a fix.I have a Dell Dimension E510 running on Media Center Edition 2005. I also have a certificate of authenticity with the XP key on it. This past thursday, I restarted my computer, and it gave me the good ole Windows did not start correctly and gave me an option to start in Last Known Good Config, Normal, or Safe Mode(s). I entered Last Known Good Config, and then it restarted, and then it came up again. It seems I cannot boot into the OS at all. I have been on my old WinME(!) system looking up solutions, and some, if not all of the suggestions have been to Repair it, etc. However cheap ole Dell has not provided me with a XP CD, and I am unable to access the i386 files in the systems. Boot Disks will work, however they only setup the system for a CD install. The BIOS is fine, i believe, as a Ubuntu CD will work fine. There are some vital files that are on that hard drive, and i can't access them. All the other computers I have are not as updated as the E510, so the SATA hard drive will not connect to the ATA motherboard (Dimension 4100)as a slave.

I'm running windows xp home edition. I don't know what happened exactly but for whatever reason, the computer simply restarted itself for no apparent reason and then it wouldn't boot the operating system correctly so I tried to get into safe mode to try and diagnose the problem. I checked the bios to see if any error messages or a log had been recorded but found nothing. When I finally got it to go into safe mode, My user name was gone and it just said "Guest" and wanted a password to log on. I am the only user of my computer and was the administrator until this happened. Even when I tried to log on as the administrator, it still wanted a password

In the past I used to just copy my stuff and then when Windows went up, you know slows down, get's corrupted somewhere, etc. I would reinstall windows and then my drives, apps, programs, files, etc. Upon my studies I learned that the default Windows backup could do these things as well as recover system state. Well I started doing backups every so often on my home PC and my server at work.
The other day I actually needed to use it as my PC had this weird issue of clicking on icon executables and not ever running them. It would refuse to start programs from the executable in the folder under program files, under start menu, or command line. It wouldn't give an error it would just click and go away. it would do it once the computer was on for a while and for a week or two I just would reboot, but I mean come on, that's a little annoying.

My "Recycle Bin" will not display the files within it with the correct filters while in the "Details" view.For example, I have the "View" set to "Details", and the two columns I have showing are "Name" and "Type", with "Name" selected as the preferred sort order.With those settings in place, the "Recycle Bin" is not displaying the files in the correct order.I am not sure of the order that it is displaying them, as I can't pick-up on any pattern.
