View 2 Replies View RelatedSound Is Not Working After Reformat / Reinstall Of Windows Xp
Sep 1, 2009I am really hoping that one or a few of you can help me with my issue. Back in June, I reinstalled Windows XP Professional on my computer. Previously, the PC kept freezing, saying Windows Explorer error, etc. Unable to do any work at all on my computer without it freezing, I reinstalled Windows. Problems solved. Except now, since then, I have had no sound at all coming from my speakers! I am missing the audio drivers, I think. Finally, yesterday, I downloaded Realtec AC 97... and now I can hear things opened on Quicktime from the internet, but cannot hear any sounds from websites or other programs I have on my computer. The little speaker control, that is usually displayed permanently in the right hand corner of the Windows toolbar, doesn't show up. I still have Volume Control on my computer...but of course cannot hear anything.Does anyone have any ideas of what I can do? I've tried unplugging the speakers and then plugging them back in to no avail. I don't think I have the installation CD for the speakers anymore, as I got them a few years ago. But if I did have them, is that how the drivers would be reinstalled?

View 2 Replies View RelatedUnable To Activate - Welcome Screen
Nov 27, 2009I have been using my genuine (original) XP Pro (oem) CD to do repair & setup on multiple older PCs just to get them in shape and up to date. It was working fine & able to activate on the first few machines, but finally then, I got this message, after it finished running a setup, booting into the Welcome screen, "Windows Product Activation: (with a circled Red X) This copy must be activated with Microsoft before you can log on. Do you want to Activate Windows now? Yes or No" I keep clicking "yes" but the same message box keeps reappearing continuously. It would not go any further. What is wrong? Is because I use the same product key to run several repair setups on multiple machines in a short period or did I use it to register & activate from different IP address under different names?

Apr 4, 2008I just noticed my start menu is acting a way I've never seen before. Instead of automatically unfold as usual, I see a partial vue (only a few programs) and I have to click on an arrow to make it unfold completely. Is that supposed to be this way (because I'm using XP Pro SP2 for the first time and SP1 was different)? Is there a function you have to deactivate or activate?

Aug 31, 2005Alright I have a problem. I removed a bunch of spyware from this computer which included Aurora, WinFixer, Surf Side Kick, and many others. What happened was after rebooting into WindowsI was prompted to re-activate Windows even though I hadn't changed out any hardware. I thought this was rather strange. I went ahead and did an overlay of the operating system. Upon doing the overlay I was prompted to activate Windows, so I did. Upon getting into Windows I found out another culprit which was giving me problems, it was a directory within Program Files. I went into safe mode and deleted the directory. After that I restarted Windows and it kept rebooting after the Windows splash screen.

Mar 13, 2007I bought a new desktop, 3 yrs ago, with Windows XP Pro installed from the factory, and of course it was an OEM version, as usual.The com has a MSI Intel 848P Neo Mother board which I have changed 2 times before on warranty. Now I had to change it again, due to one PCI slot was dead. So far everything was ok.But, to activate the OS was now a "plenty big" problem.
Somehow the technician managed to do it at his own place. Suddenly, I was going to download a plug-in program to my Microsoft Publisher 2002, of course validation was required. No problem - I had done that several times during the last 3 yeras and everything has been ok. But not this time. Validation failed, Microsoft announced. "The Office XP Pro has to be activated, start any Office program, go to Help activate product" - No problem, easy job.
