Vidcam DVR Storage - Cannot Login System
Jun 19, 2008
I reused an old computer for vidcam DVR storage and ran into a problem. The system is and old HP which I did a reinstall of XP. I don't think I installed any user accounts. I installed swann DVR software and the swan card- everything was running OK and worked as advertised. The swann stuff starts automatically when booting. I then upgraded to XP SP2. After booting the system asks for the XP login. I have tried every combination that I would have put in along with the defults and the swann login stuff to no avail. Is there a way around this to get into the system?

Would like the forum's advice on how to fix this annoyance.Win XP Pro, SP2, fully patched, firewalled, protected, runs great and boots very quickly. Once booted up, should the user leave the machine and log off, that is when the problem shows up. Using the mouse or the spacebar, the logon screen appears, the PW is entered, and then 'blank desktop'. No taskbar, no recycle bin, no keyboard or mouse function. To escape this situation, a reboot, then everything is normal.

Actually its my friend that logged out. She has XP and is the only user. She has no "guest" log on. And she is apparently the "administrator". While she has never used a password, after accidentally logging out of Windows, she keeps getting the log in screen. She has tried the password blank, control-alt-delete 2x, changing the name to administrator and nothing has worked. Any further expertise that we can draw on from this group?

My computer froze on two occasions yesterday, leaving me no choice but to reboot my PC by pressing the on button. I had my PC set to automatically logon. Now, when I start my PC it automatically logs me as guest user, unable to use most of my downloaded programs, files, etc. I can�t download programs, Only as an administrator. I can only log as Administrator when using the �safe mode�. When I download a program I cant view it. How can I set it back to the old way, able to view all my programs, files , photos, pictures, etc. I have a Dell, dimension 4400 with windows XP home edition.

Ok, heres the problem. We are building some PC's at work and one of them was supposed to be for a spicific department within. well, last minute they decided to give it to another dept. Well we changed the account name to that dept from the other. The problem is when we boot up the PC it still has the old dept.'s name on it, when we login, it labled as the new dept. we searched windows files as well as Registry and cant find the old dept.'s name anywhere. where is this name being pooled from?

I was wondering if there's an accessible storage file, like index.dat, for the passwords IE asks you to save. And if there is, where is it located? I know that they can be cleared through Internet Options but I just wanted to see how many and which ones are saved.I'm running Windows XP SP1.

Should this be disabled in Win Xp Home under device manager. If I enable it I get the Safe to remove Hardware icon in the system tray? Lower rt corner of screen. Another thing, if I enable the device, I get 4 generic disks listed under "Disk Drive" in device manager.

I'm not an IT person, I apologize for not having enough information to explain myself in IT terms. I turn the machine on. I can't remember the password I last used with this machine so I can't login. It's a work computer which I want to give back but I want to erase all my personal files first.

Could anyone shed any light on my problem. Every time I try to log on to XP from the Welcome screen, it logs on for a split second, before logging back out to the welcome screen. Been in in safe mode, and ran Spybot S&D, Adaware 6.0, and AVG 7.0, incase it should turn something up, but to no avail. I reinstalled XP in the same partition, and deleted the old copy, and now the new install is doing the same thing. If anyone has any ideas, I'd like to hear them before I pull out the rest of my hair.

I'm creating this topic on behalf of a friend; basically, his CD drive, his ipod, and every removable storage device is no longer showing up within Windows XP after he recently installed a program called "u3". The drives do not show up in my computer or device manager. He has since removed the program to no avail. I've never had a problem like this so I'm unsure how to diagnose it

I have a pretty old and crappy computer with a 40gb HDD. Just a week ago I had like 13-14 GB free on it. Then I got a virus. I successfully cleared out all traces of the virus that I could find using ad-aware and trend micro house call.When I was scanning with adaware, it shows the filenames and paths being scanned. There were all of these files(and I mean thousands) with porn names, and I had never put them there. Adaware didn't catch them as any sort of bad file either. The weird thing is, when I went to the directory that it said they were located in, nothing was there. I even made hidden files visible and still nothing.

I tried fdisking to my Hard Drive in DOS and it only recognized 5 Gigs, but the drive is a 40 Gig. I've gone into recovery console on XP and managed to delete the 5 gig partition and create a 40gig partition, but when I've gone into XP it has disappeared. So, I tried accessing it via Control Panel - It's there, but I can't do anything with it.

My office has a group of XP machines which have been working just fine. They started changing to wireless mice with a USB connection, and now the pcs aren't recognizing USB storage devices any longer. They worked for a few days, then started acting stupid. They first wouldn't just install--needed admin authority. Then didn't recognize the device. Now they don't do anything. Since the problem started after the USB mice were installed, I am thinking there is a connection but am not sure. What do you do when the pc won't acknowledge your thumb or portable hard drive with all your data and files? We don't have a network where we store individual's data. The portable hard drive that they said "was not recognizable" works just fine with my pc at home, so I know the hard drive didn't die yet.

I have upgraded my PC (motherboard, HD, Processor, RAM and DVD drive) not much else left is there Anyway, I can see the USB mass storage device in "Device Manager" and all is well but I can't see it in Explorere or My PC. If I unplug it and reconnect it gets found and installed with the "new software is installed and running correctly" message.

I'm having problems with 2 of my computers recognizing USB mass storage devices. They used to work just fine but not any more. When I plug them in (I've tried my Palm - have program to recognize it as a drive - and a new card reader and my camera) I get a message that new hardware is found (mass storage device) but then it takes me to the Found New Hardware Wizard and none of the choices I select (Install Automatically, search web, etc) find any drivers. The crazy thing is, though, that when it did work, the first time I plugged them in the Found New Hardware Wizard didn't come up but it installed what it needed automatically. I'm thinking there is a corrupt driver and was wondering if there was a way to get just that driver back without reinstalling Windows. Also, what's strange is that two of my computers work this way. My one (other) computer accepts everything just fine.

This is not the usual thread where you "forgot" your password or what not. I was trying to remove the login screen on windows by deleting a few accounts of mine, just to discover that the login screen is still there, only difference is now the username is "administrator" of which I have no clue what the password is.. SO. I tried a bunch of things such as booting from a password cracking image file, with no success (says disk is "dirty") and now I'm thinking that if I booted with a different hard drive and put my original drive in an enclosure I should be able to get into it and make some changes to fix this problem, by maybe erasing or resetting the password.. right?

I cannot get into my PC. All of a sudden I trun on my PC and the login icons is MISSING! There is no username icon to click at the welcome screen. I tried to boot in safe mode and it still requires I click a user. I hit CNTRL+DEL+ALT twice to log on but it wouldnt take my password so I have no way to get into my system. Its Windows XP pro and I am not sure if I have SP2 or not.

I have an external USB 2.0 case with a 160GB HD that was working just fine until a couple of days ago when I stopped the drive and unplugged it from the PC. Next time I connected the drive to the same PC, I got a message saying "There was a problem installing your device" and in the Properties window for the device a Code 10 appears. I connected the same drive to a different computer and it is working perfectly. I uninstalled the device and reinstalled it again but the problem still persists.
