    - Upload problems with Windows XP SP2 I'm having trouble with uploads to web sites on my Windows XP SP2 machine. I basically can't upload any files in in a web request. If I try going to a bandwidth test page, it does the download test fine, but then won't even complete the upload test. I can't send emails through my web email client. I can't upload files to web pages. Each time I try it hangs and then times out. It shouldn't be a browser problem. It is the same with Firefox and IE. I thought maybe it was a hardware problem. I tried switching out the network cable, tried switching ports on my router, I even installed a different network card with the same results on the new card. Clearly it shouldn't be a hardware problem. It isn't the internet connection. I have another computer going through the same router to the same internet connection and it doesn't have the problem. I can upload files over the network to the other computer (though it does seem a little slower than download). Firewall is turned off. I really don't know what else to look for. Anyone have any ideas? I'm stumped. Thanks, Monk Tag: post delected Tag: 803086

    - Problems opening minimized apps on taskbar I've been having problems recently with trying to open minimized applications/files on the toolbar. Normally when I click on the file/application to open it back up, it opens a window on top of any other open windows and is the active window. Now when I click on something on the taskbar, the rectangle button just blinks. If I click on it several times, it will finally open. While it is the front-most window, it is not active. At other times, I have to minimize other windows to get to the one I am trying to open. It's like the window doesn't open on top of the other windows. Any idea what could be causing this? And even better, any idea how to stop it? Thanks. I'm using XP Professional 2002. Tag: post delected Tag: 803066

    - Declining a Single Update Hello all, Windows automatic update has been working very well. Recently I had an update for my ATI graphics card. When I updated this, the multimedia program did not work properly. I was in contact with ATI. I had to uninstall everything and then reinstall all of the software and drivers. Fresh start, all works, but now I have that ATI automatic update waiting to be downloaded. I don't want it. How can I pass on this update and continue getting the others I need? Thanks for the help.

    - Folder tree display faulty In windows explorer, in any folder or directory, when Moving or Copying or Renaming a folder or file I will occasionally see this happen in the folder tree of the folder I am in when the operation completes. Always at the top level (desktop), not the folder that I happen to be in. A duplicate set of desktop icons will appear above the "real" Desktop icon, and all of them will be named "Desktop". The duplicate icons will be correct though, for MY COMPUTER, RECYCLE BIN, etc, and for any other folders that are actually on my desktop. Furthermore, I can select any of these duplicate icons and they will open the correct object they represent. It's like a "clone" Desktop folder tree ABOVE the actual desktop folder tree. Any input is appreciated, since it is hard to put in a few words for a search engine.... Tag: post delected Tag: 803038

    - USB "Safely Remove" error In the past I've used two USB devices which I habitually remove without shutting XP down: the little reader that reads my camera's memory card and a little 2gig flash memory I bought at Staples. The Safely Remove feature worked OK with these. Recently I also connnected a USB enclosure with an IDE hard drive inside it to clone to. When I tried using the Safely Disconnect icon on this drive I got this message "Exception occurred trying to run shell32.dll, control_Rundll hotplug.dll". The balloon "You may safely disconnect your device" does appear, and the temporary drive icon disappears from the tray. Anyone know how to cure this? Do you think it is REALLY safe to turn the drive off at that point? (that's a backup clone of my c: drive, I wouldn't want to destroy data, I'd really need the thing in a dire emergency). Also, now the same thing happens with my other two disconnecable devices. Remove no_spam to reply email Tag: post delected Tag: 803034

    - Constant Disk Writes WinXP I've searched the internet high and low, found many many posts regarding constant disk writes when the system is otherwise idle, but have found exactly zero cases where the thread culminated in a resolution. I have a WinXP Home SP3v.3311 built on Q6600 Quad, 4GB Ram, Gigabyte P35-DS3L, EVGA 8800GT. My system drive is a WD 150GB 10krpm and it is being abused by the system. The really weird thing is that WinInternals ProcessMonitor doesn't seem to report this continuous activity. I enabled the column I/O Delta Writes in PE and and sort the processes by this parameter, but very little info is ever displayed under this column when idle. Perhaps 0.5s is far too long a refresh cycle, an eternity on a 2.4GHz system. The nature of my problem is revealed by FILEMON: 10:29:07 AM System:4 IRP_MJ_WRITE* C:\pagefile.sys SUCCESS Offset: 41611264 Length: 65536 10:29:13 AM System:4 IRP_MJ_WRITE* C:\$Mft SUCCESS Offset: 45522944 Length: 4096 10:29:13 AM System:4 IRP_MJ_WRITE* C:\$LogFile SUCCESS Offset: 27033600 Length: 36864 10:29:14 AM System:4 IRP_MJ_WRITE* C:\$Directory SUCCESS Offset: 8192 Length: 4096 10:29:14 AM System:4 IRP_MJ_WRITE* C:\$BitMap SUCCESS Offset: 5976064 Length: 4096 These typical lines were clipped out of a voluminous FILEMON log. These writes happen on the average of 3-4 times per second, constantly. A typical sequence as reported by DISKMON is six writes to $LogFile in the sequence 96-8-8-8-8-96 bytes. My WHSTray application was just as guilty and I've reduced the reported thrashing somewhat by disabling it, but the level of constant writes is still unacceptable. Odd thing is WHSTray does not have that effect on my other two XP machines, one XP Pro SP2, the other a Toshiba laptop with XP Home SP3v3264 I've also disabled Terminal Services so lsass.exe is not running. The other important detail I should include is that this is a newly built machine, having migrated the system volume and did repair install from slipstreamed SP2 cd. The old machine has become my WHS. I have up-to-date AVGFree reporting no threats. Spybot S&D the same. Disabling either or both has no effect. Thanks in advance for anyone willing and able to help. I'm stumped. Tag: post delected Tag: 803018

    - Command line to update thumbs.db? I have a server with several TB of images. You can think of it as a sort of imaging server. There are around 10 million images in thousands of directories. These uploaded from interfaces, so the users have read-only rights to the entire server. When the users browse a folder, they don't have rights to create/ update thumbs.db. So they have to generate the thumbnails each time, in memory. I'd like to have the thumbs.db autocreate. Is there any way to do this? A command line perhaps? I'm a programmer, so if there is a way to program this then I'm all ears. Worst case I can imagine is recursively navigate the directories in a program, and launch each directory in Explorer, forcing thumbnail view (already have code to do this in my imaging viewer) however the problem is that Explorer only creates thumbnails for the first page of images and there is no way to tell when it is done. Any ideas? Thanks! Tag: post delected Tag: 803002

    - reboot failure from windows xp cd Help All, After my computer was stuck in a loop i rebooted from the Windows XP cd. I then went to Windows updates and downloaded all the updates. I then tried to install SP2 but was greeted with an "access denied" message. I followed various replies posted on these fourums to remedy this but it did not work. I then rebooted again from the cd and now i have lost access to Windows Updates. On the 1st occasion i have tried using a different admin account, unistalling my Panda antivirus and i have tried to follow instructions to use a SubInAcl file, this i am out of my depth. On the 2nd occasion i believe i have lost a jscript.dll file but again i have encountered confiedence problems trying to fix this. Any ideas anyone? Tag: post delected Tag: 803001

    - Windows Movie Maker problem When I attempt to trim the beginning of a clip I often experience this problem: If I trim too much off in the beginning, the thumbnail of the video in the timeline or storyboard turns green and when I preview the clip, the video is gone (only audio left). This happens when I try to trim off more than a few seconds in the beginning of a clip. Has anyone else experienced this problem? If so, how can I fix this? There is often too much at the beginning of a clip that needs to be trimmed to leave it as is. I've also tried trimming the clip in a separate program, but then Windows Movie Maker refuses to import it. Tag: post delected Tag: 802972

    - Chkdsk doesn't find bad sectors in unused space I know that Chkdsk /r is supposed to locate and repair bad sectors, but I have discovered that it only does so on the parts of the hard drive that contain data. I have a few old crappy hard drives with known bad sectors on them that I used for this test. Using an IDE to USB adapter, I formatted the drives as fat32 and ran Chkdsk on my XP machine...no errors. I moved the drives to a Windows 98 machine and ran Scandisk...bingo, it found bad sectors. Next, I re-formatted the drives and put them back on my XP machine. As before, Chkdsk did not find any bad sectors. However after I copied test data to the drive, Chkdsk found the same number of errors that Win98's Scandisk did. Obviously, Chkdsk does not find bad sectors on a drive unless data has already been written there...which in my opinion is kinda stupid. :-/ Long story short, is there another disk diagnostic program I can use that properly scans an entire disk, just like Win98's old Scandisk program used to? A previous thread mentioned SpinRite. Would that do a better job than Chkdsk for locating bad sectors over the entire disk (even in unused space)? Tag: post delected Tag: 802941

    - Salvage Win98 files on old PC to XP PC? I have an old PC with Windows 98 OS that has 'died'. I can't boot it up; prior to full failure the CD ROM drive failed, then the floppy drive failed. Now Windows won't boot up at all. I THINK there are a few files on the old hard drive that I would like to access (old emails). I am currently using another PC with Windows XP Home, SP2. Is there a way I can hook up the old hard drive to the XP PC? Will XP be able to read the drive and files? I'd rather not try to install the old hard drive in the XP PC, if possible. Is there some sort of technical gadget that will let me hook up the old hard drive via USB? Also, is it possible that the old hard drive could be infected with a virus? I've always wondered why the whole PC slowly lost one component at a time until it was dead. Tag: post delected Tag: 802903

    - Cluster size problem I converted a drive from FAT32 to NTFS and ended up with 512 byte clusters. I did not know this was a problem until reading posts on this list and by then it was too late. What can I do now? I tried using Acronis True Image to copy the partition (C:) to another drive (D:), but ended up with 512KB clusters there as well. I tried formatting D: with 4KB clusters and copying all the files using robocopy, but some files that were in use did not get copied and I can't boot to the new drive. What else can I try to get a bootable drive with 4KB clusters. Tag: post delected Tag: 802891

    - Windows will not start I was having tons of lockup and blue screen errors. I tried to troubleshoot and run multiple diagnostics - to no avail. In frustration I transferred all files and folders to my second drove and then performed a new install of XP on my primary drive. As I was bring files back into the C drive I started having lockups. I continued to bring back files. Eventually the system locked up - I could not clear so I powered down manually. Now the system will not come back up saying that the services.exe and lsass.exe failed to intialize properly ( it shows to errors for each of the .exe files). I opened up the recovery console. I ran fixboot and ran chkdsk. System locked up in checkdsk. I tried to make copies of special boot disk - nothing works. Can anyone help me get this beast opened?? -- FOLEYBA Tag: post delected Tag: 802889

    - lost most of e-mails and email folders Good morning, I have lost a bunch of e-mails and e-mail folders. Goodness knows what I have done. I updated something called Java yesterday which maybe the problem. I tried to restore to last week nothing. Then i found a place on the web which showed me how to get all the missings bits into a folder on desktop, which I managed to do. But now i have lost the page which told me to do that and i cannot figure out how to get them back into OE 6. XP home edition. Can anyone help me please. Thanks Jen Tag: post delected Tag: 802886

    - Difference between "nslookup" and "whois" ? What is the difference between "nslookup" and "whois" ? For both I enter a domain name and get an IP. Do use both the same sources? Can I enter in both cases domain names with a 3rd level domain name e.g. aaa.yahoo.com Ken Tag: post delected Tag: 802864

    - Password Request - New Last night, a dialog box appeared that indicated that Windows detected a corrupt file, and that I should run the CHKDSK utility. I either clicked OK, and the system started re-booting, or I may have restarted the computer after clicking OK. Regardless, after a series of delete and repair messages, the logon screen showed up, but regardless of which icon I now click on, it now requests a password. We never established any passwords since this is our home computer, and we have been using it for three or four years. At this point, we are totally locked out of our computer. How do we eliminate the password requirement? Tag: post delected Tag: 802862

    - Unable to install accessories I have somehow managed to mess my system up. Paint and Calculator are no longer in list of accessories. I have tried to re-install from Add/Remove Windows components in Control Panel, and I get a series of error messages that many small files are missing. The error msg states to insert Windows XP disk--but it came installed on my computer. Any ideas? Thanks for any help. Tag: post delected Tag: 802859
