    - How to avoid annoying desktop re-shuffle? Hi, Occasionally the screen resolution is changed on my machine, for one reason or another. Last time it was not my own doing, but it was made automatically to adjust to the lower resolution of a connected video projector. Anyhow, the net result is the same, all my strategically well placed icons on the desktop get completely reshuffled. They can of course be repositioned again, but it is definitively an annoyance. Is there a way for the system be able to remember the icon positions for the respective screen resolutions used? Best regards / Ake Tag: Windows Search 4.0 and XP indexing service Tag: 813541

How would I do a total backup in the middle of updating? I can't do a system backup while I'm doing the upgrade. 2. Do I really need to do a full backup of everything?

    - Problem standing by I have a Dell Inspiron B130. At times, when I close my laptop, the computer will start the process to go on standby as it's supposed to. However, it doesn't finish that process. It doesn't return an error to my knowledge. It just sits there with the power light on. I open the laptop, close the laptop, run my finger across the touchpad, click the mouse buttons, hit ctrl+alt+del, hit esc, hit pretty much any key combination I can think of, even hit the power button, but the only thing I can do is hold the power button until it shuts down. The most recent time it happened I think the only programs I had open were Internet Explorer, Notepad, FreeCell, and Adobe Reader within Internet Explorer!

    - Do I have the correct version of XP? I've been considering articles either dual-boot of Vist and XP or removing Vista and installing XP alone. On the eve of the June 30 deadline, I bought a copy of XP with SP2. I'm using a 7 month-old system with Vista Home Premium and am not satisfied with it. That version of Vista is not eligible for the down-grade offered by the manufacturer so I bought a package labled Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition that includes SP2. The box also says "For PCs with Windows 95 or earlier, or PCs without Windows." The number 0804 Part NO. X10-87162 is shown and the authenticity label includes the no NO9-00984. I am concerned about whether this is the version I need. The statement "For PCs with Windows 95 or earlier or for PCs with out Windows" seems very limiting and, for example, would exclude W98 or W2000. Can you tell me if this is the version I need? Thanks for your help. Tag: Windows Search 4.0 and XP indexing service Tag: 813510

    - Desktop search does not index all folders!! Windows desktop search does not include all my .DOC files in the index. I've checked: --- it is set to index .DOC files (and does index many) --- it is set to index all of My DOcuments, including the specific folders with the files in. It seems to leave out whole folders. --- I've reindexed everything. I'm running XP. I can't find an "About Windows Search" to tell me what version of that I'm running, but I have automatic updates so I guess both XP and Search are bang up to date.

The disk may be corrupted, or it could be using a format that is not compatible with Windows." I'm using the Windows format, so I figure the disk is probably corrupted.

    - windows explorer problems So I had the Vundo trojan, I ran Vundofix and it found the files and got rid of them, I ran it again and it didn't find anything. I've run other programs and they're saying they're not finding anything either. So I'm thinking its not that anymore? When I start my computer up and log in my icons don't show up on the desk top and the task bar comes up but the start menu button and the time don't show up so it's just a blue bar and when I put the mouse over it, it turns into the hourglass. And the start button on the key board won't bring up the start menu. About 30 seconds after I log on a window comes up saying that Windows Explorer has encountered a problem and has to close, and some times it also says that about Dr Watsons Postmortem Debugger, but not everytime. I have to run everything through task manager and currently I am in safe mode. Tag: Windows Search 4.0 and XP indexing service Tag: 813459

    - Windows XP crash - files disappear Hi folks, I'm wondering if anyone has encountered the following situation and found a reason for it happening (two seperate machines and slightly different problems): I did an install of Office 2003 and service packed it on a machine running Windows XP SP2. Nothing strange to report. Rebooted the machine a few times and all was okay. The users took the machine home and office had literally vanished - it was not on the Start menu and there was no files located within Program files | Microsoft Office. There was nothing listed in the event viewer as to why this had happened and the only way I got it back was be using a System Restore point. It was such a clean disappearance that the only way I could see it happening was from Add/Remove programs and the user assured me this had not been done. A few days later another user is copying a huge file to his desktop and his machine hangs/crashes. After a reboot, there profile has disappeared and everything he had on his desktop has gone - files/shortcuts etc. My colleague used a System Restore point and this resolved the problem. However, I do not understand how this is happening as it seems very drastic and I've never seen it before in 6 years of having XP on our desktops. It also seems that both problems are related as they are exhibiting the same symptoms. Has anyone else encountered this problem or know of what may cause it. I've scoured the knowledge base and cannot see anything that resembles this or what may cause it to happen. I'm not so concerned for a fix more than what parameters may cause it! All our machines are fully covered with antivirus and this has not shown any problems. Thanks for your help in advance. Tag: Windows Search 4.0 and XP indexing service Tag: 813424

    - Windows Search with Domain Logon I have Windows Search 4 on both my home machine and my machine at work. At home I automatically logon with an administrator account. At work I logon to the domain as a Power User. At home I can rebuild the search index by simply clicking on the Rebuild button in Advanced Options. The number of items indexed so far immediately goes to zero and indexing starts. This does not happen at work with a domain user logon. The Rebuild button seems to have no effect.

    - "Entire Directory" option not showing when adding a network printer Hi Everyone, I've been experiencing the following issue when I try to add a printer to some of the workstations of my office network. In ALL BUT TWO of the 10 computers if I go to the Find a Printer Wizard > "Network Printer" > "Find a printer in the directory" I get the window called "Find Printer" that shows an "Entire Directory" option selected by default in the "In" box and below in the drop down menu the name of our server. I leave "Entire directory" selected and hit the "Find now" button to get the full list of all our network printers, I select what I want and I'm all set. Instead on two of the computers the following happens: After clicking on "Find a printer in the directory" the "Find Printer" window looks different. It does NOT have the "Entire Directory" option in the "In" field but instead just the name of our server. If I hit "browse" I get no other option but the name of our server. I leave the name of the server selected as I have no other option and when I select "Find now" the computer freezes for a good 5 minutes and eventually will return a blank list (no printers). I'm assuming that the reason why the system returns a blank list is because it's looking for a printer attached to the server which does not exist but do you have any idea why the "Entire directory" option is not showing up? The only way for us to get to a printer is to select "Local Printer" instead of Network Printer in the Wizard and then select a TCP/IP port and enter IP address of that specific printer. It works but the printer is considered a local printer and not a network one. Do you have any ideas of what is going on? Thank you very much, any suggestion greatly appreciated!

    - external hard drive no access question Hi, I had an Emachine that took a dump - it stopped booting up on startup. I took it to geek squad and they told me that there was a problem with the computer seeing the hard drive on start up and that's why it would not boot up. They advised that they could extract the information off my (now dead) emachine hard drive for $275. I left. A friend told me that I could remove it from the emachine and connect it to my new computer as an external hard drive, which I did. Now with my new Dell I can see the local disk F and all the files inside it however, when trying to access any folder, particularly the important one...Desktop, I get the following error message: "F:\Documents and Settings\Desktop is not accessible. Access is denied." I have messed around with sharing and security with individual files and with the entire root and cannot get it to let me in. I am wondering the following things: I have a bunch of pictures on the original hard drive desktop....is there a way to tell if they are they still there with no access? What might I have to do to make accessing these files in this external hard drive possible? I thank anyone for any help you can give me with this.

    - Problem with video resolution going to 640x480 Hi folks. Well, I have beat my head against the wall till it is bloodied. I hope someone has slayed this dragon, and can give me a hint. I have a Dell Dimension 4550 running XP Pro. This machine has an Nvidia GeForce4 MX420 integrated video card on the motherboard. I normally use this at a 1024x768 resolution setting. I have used this machine with this configuration for several years without any problem, until about 6 months ago. It now switches itself to 640x480 4-bit resolution any time it comes out of sleep mode. When this happens, it is not possible to change the display resolution with the normal settings controls. The only way to recover seems to be to reboot the machine. Once the machine is rebooted, it works reliably until the next time that the system goes into sleep mode. Then it all starts over again. I beat on it several times, and finally decided to do a complete fresh install of XP Pro on a brand new disk. I installed all of the drivers fresh, and did the setup from the ground up. Painful, but I figured that this would solve the problem. Unfortunately, the problem is still there. I have tried the video drivers from Dell, and I have downloaded and installed Nvidia's drivers as well. Neither affect the problem. I suspect that this problem is related to some security patch that MS has done to Windows, though I don't have any real evidence of that. It just seems like everything was working fine, and then it wasn't, kind of like something was added to the OS that doesn't work with my system. I suggest that it is security related because it seems to be connected to the user log-in process. I have three accounts on this machine. One for my wife, one for me, and one for guests. My account and my wife's accounts are both protected with passwords. The guest account does not have a password. If I log into the guest account after coming out of sleep mode, the machine is at the proper video resolution. However, if I log into either of the password protected accounts after coming out of sleep mode, it goes to 640x480. I don't believe that it is a hardware problem, because when it is at the proper resolution, it works fine. And I can change back and forth between all accounts without a problem as long as it does not go into sleep mode. Anyone have an idea for a fix? Thanks in advance, and sorry for the long post.

    - How to totally delete defunct WINDOWS folder/subfolders? I have old Windows directories on 2 separate drives; one is my current boot drive; the other I used for a test to potentially upgrade my XP Pro to XP Pro X64. Both will not totally delete because of the obstinance of the undeletability of 2 files in \[whatever old]\system32\Macromed\Flash directory. The files are: 1. FlashUtil9f.exe 2. Flash9f.ocx To illustrate the absurdity of my attempts to fool Flash that these 4 Flash files are inoperable because I re-named the whole directory tree in these defunct Windows directories, the current trees are: 1. WnDOW_\Sy\Ma\F\ 2. \W\32\M\F Flash refuses to give up its lease on those 2 properties. Does anyone have an answer to this. I have tried to do this by even Diagnostic Startup, and backing up and cleaning everything cleanable with Regedt32, after un-installing all current Macromedia programs in Add or Remove Programs, and running RegCure 10 times in a row. Something along the line did remove FlashUtil9f.exe in the old X64 OS directory, but nothing of the other 3 files; 1 in the uninstalled X64, 2 in the defunct X86. Anyone have any cures?

Previously i had myself as a user with administrative privliges and i also had an account for my girlfriend(without privliges) Before when i started up my computer, it would give me two user for signing in(starting windows) Now, somehow, my account is gone and the only option is my girlfriends account(with no administrative privliges) So i am wondering if there is anyway to retreive my account and how to do it. Thankful for input on this Kind regards A frustrated user -- swedishsteel Tag: Windows Search 4.0 and XP indexing service Tag: 813345

    - M$ Mgmt Consonsole View Error When I go to Control Panel->Administrative Tools->Services-><ExtendedView> Tab, the text is very small - I can't read it. How to fix? FYI: WinXP Pro + SP3 Tag: Windows Search 4.0 and XP indexing service Tag: 813341

After installing Windows Search 4.0 on xpsp3 I notice the old indexing
service is still set to load on automatic as well as the new windows search
service. Should the old xp index service be stopped or left on automatic ?
