Uncheck Un Signed Driver Installation Warnings
Aug 12, 2002
Many new drivers aren't signed by Microsoft so WinXP will warn you or even prevent you from installing new drivers for a device. To prevent this warning or to allow new un-signed drivers to be installed do the following:1. Go to start/run/ then type secpol.msc2. Browse to local policies/security options3. Change "Devices: Unsigned driver installation behavior" setting to Silently succeed.4. Reboot Computer.Another helpful hint from tweakxp.comKen P Or, especially if you are using XP Home where there is no secpol.msc, right click on your My Computer icon, click properties, change to the Hardware tab, click the "Driver signing" button and click ignore.

Because I am poor, a friend of mine gave me a brand new machine with a blank HD. I have this morning installed a genuine fresh copy of XP Home which appears to have gone on OK (I have 20 years PC experience, but little of it messing around with new installs).
I got my internet working, anti virus etc, but when I checked the device manager to see why I was not getting sound.
I've done a screen cap of device manager (but I don't know how to place it on here) - If anyone wants it e mailing I can of course do that.
By the look of it, the sound card is integral to the motherboard but the device manager is not identifying it by name. If I am identify / find drivers on the net,

remove programs window is a High Definition Audio Driver Package. It has after it, kb888111. Is this just an update patch from microsoft? I ask because that's all there is. I can't find where the driver itself is installed. It looks like an update, without a program. If i need these drivers, where could i get them?

I tried to reinstall win xp but it is barfing at my modem / router driver. It complains that the driver isn't certified by Microsoft, and crashes. I've tried rebooting and removing/reinserting the disc but the installation continues from the point it left off and crashes at the driver again.

Even after a fresh re-install of XP the sound driver install causes the machine to crash. No matter what I do. I have most of the files loaded except for the multimedia controller. each time I try to update it , the machine crashes.Not sure if it matters, all high priority updates are done

I recently reinstalled XP but to my chagrin, it seems I cannot install the manufacturers drivers for graphics adapter or monitor, but am stuck with the generic, default drivers whose performance is horrible.It takes forever for the screen to update. I used to know what to do to fix this, but have forgotten how.

I have one physical video card installed in my pc. Its a g4orce 4 ti4400 .In devmgr, i have a hidden, non present card also.Its a gforce FX5200, which I had previously. I uninstalled it from devmgr, and of course it also removed my drivers for the ti4400. But my problem is that after the uninstall,my standby or hibernate options dont even appear
anymore. I am now using the integrated graphics with those drivers installed,standby hibernate are still missing. Can anyone help? I have XP Pro SP2 and would rather not do a sys restore or anything like that.

I used to have a way on Win 98 to uncheck things that I didn't want to have on my computer when it boots up. I now have Win XP and can't figure out how to get to the list where I can uncheck things. I activated the Windows Messenger and I'd like to stop having constantly in my face. I'm sorry I activated it in the first place. I don't want to completely remove it, but would like it to stop working for now. Can someone give me specific steps to get to the "start up" list?

Ever wonder where you file extensions went? Working with files when you can not tell what the file extension can be a huge pain in the butt. MS has made it possible for all file names with the extensions to be shown.in any folder that contains files. Click on the tools menu and select folder options. Then click on the view tab. Locate where it lists Hide extensions of known file types and uncheck it

Every time I open a file, I get this message:
"Do you want to run this file?"
or
"The publisher could not be verified. Are you sure you want to run this software?"
It even happens for the "Show Desktop" icon in my Quick Launch bar.
All these files are just on my local hard drive.

I have a Server 2003 SP 2 DC acting as a print server. It seems to be causing our XP SP2 clients to produce an event ID 20 print warning everytime they try to print as if the driver has changed even though it has not.

Okay this is driving me nuts. I know about adding a key to the registry as described
here:http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,1202672,00.asp
What it doesn't tell you is if you DO have something that says DWORD in the registry.
I'm not sure if I should add NoLowDiskSpaceChecks or not
