    - User screen on booting I've just installed MCE 2005. I am sole user and therefore (it would seem) the Administrator. When boot I get a welcome screen with a square colored graphic with my name beside it. It states: "to begin click your user name" I want rid of this screen so that I can boot straight into Windows. I can't remember how I got rid of this in my other XP systems. No password is involved. Please help. Tag: User account xp home edition cont alt del twice owner welcome Tag: 1886979

    - Outlook Express I have Windows XP and Exporer 7. Two days ago when I tried to open Outlook Express,I get a message box saying Outlook Express has encountered a problem and needs to close. I do not know what kind of problem has happened. I had a live chat with a HP tech,and he told me to uninstall Explorer 7 and reinstall 6. I do not know if this is my correct and best solution. Any help out there. Tag: User account xp home edition cont alt del twice owner welcome Tag: 1886964

    - Sound very low...but volume at max I have a Windows XP SP2 system, fully patched. One day I noticed that the sound is very low. I can hear music in Itunes and Windows media player, but it is muted. The Windows Narrator is too faint to hear. None of the volume settings are muted in Windows, and all of the volume sliders are at their highest settings. A motherboard replacement did not resolve the issue. Also, I have tried different speakers and none of them make a difference. I have tried the speakers on other systems and they work fine. Any ideas? It is clearly a software issue, but I can't locate the source of the problem.

    - Anyone have any MS SteadyState experience? Was wondering if anyone had any MS SteadyState knowledge? We are looking into the viability of this product for some of our laptops. I have run into issues determining what files need to be stored on a different partition that is not protected by disk protection. Either way, my knowledge is basic. If you have any tips please contact me. Mike Tag: User account xp home edition cont alt del twice owner welcome Tag: 1886953

    - Disk space differences as reported in explorer? When your right click on a drive in XP's windows explorer, and get these different reported sizes, what is the story? Example, for a 20 GB partition - rounded to 3 significant digits below: (choose whichever I guess; the two listings below are seen next to each other in windows explorer): 12. 4GB 11.5 GB used spaee (tot capacity adds up to 19.9 GB) 7.56 GB 7.04 GB free space (tot capacity adds up to 18.6 GB) (tot = 19.9 GB) (tot = 18.5 GB) and as yet a third variation reported in BING: 11.9 GB used, 7.22 GB free (total = 19.1 GB) Anyone have a good explanation for the differences? I assume part of it might have to due with the defenition of the HD sizes, e.g.: 1 GB or 1.024 GB, for "1 GB size" - not sure? or for a 40 GB example: 20.36 GB 18.9 GB used space 19.64 GB 18.2 GB free space capacity: 40.00 GB 37.2 GB Tag: User account xp home edition cont alt del twice owner welcome Tag: 1886838

    - XP Activation Hello everyone. I've read old posts regarding XP activation/re-activation but on the same machine (ie, after reformatting, re-install). My question is I'm planning on getting rid of my desktop (completely wiping the HDD of the OS which is WinXP Home SP2). I'm buying a second hand laptop with *no* OS installed. I would like to put my XP Home SP2 on the laptop (after wiping it off my old desktop). I've read from an old post that once I activate XP to a system it's locked in to that system's specs? I don't want to shell out another $150 for a copy of XP as I find it unnecessary. Your feedback would be appreciated! Tag: User account xp home edition cont alt del twice owner welcome Tag: 1886754

    - XP Service packs I've had conflicting information that all Service Packs are cumulative, and from another source that SP3 is in fact stand alone.

    - Fonts disappear from Office apps after reboot but remain in OS?? So - I'm at my wits end - any suggestions would be appreciated!! On an XP SP2 machine with Office 2003 SP2 we install a true-type font and it works just fine. We can see it in Fonts folder as well as use it in Office products. We logoff/login - same thing - works fine. We restart system - this font is no longer available in Office products but are still visible in Fonts folder. This happens with many fonts that we install - so it's not font specific. We've rebuilt the device twice and the problem reoccurs for this pocket of users. We've had them login to test machines and it works fine (ruling out ID related issue). I've logged into his machine and had the issue (generating a new local profile). So - we think we've narrowed it down to their physical devices with a physical reboot. From reading another thread re: fonts, I did confirm the registry of the device does have the Fonts key and does contain all the fonts. This problem is specific to the applications (Adobe and Office) not being able to see/use the fonts after a reboot. Has anyone come across something like this? Any suggestions where to start troubleshooting further? Thanks! Michelle Tag: User account xp home edition cont alt del twice owner welcome Tag: 1886708

    - Boot to BIOS This may be the wrong group to address this issue, but I have a family member who has requested help--his computer is in a semi-paralyzed state. He has a Dell Dimension E521 with Phoenix Award BIOS. The problem is that he cannot enter anything from the keyboard. I suggested a first attempt at a repair reinstall from his Windows XP installation disk. He needs to set the boot sequence to boot from his CD/DVD drive so he can boot from the installation disk. He says he cannot get the computer to enter the BIOS System Setup from boot. He has tried pressing F2 before the Dell splash screen, which should be the correct key to press to interrupt the normal Windows boot process. Any other suggestions as to how to get the computer into the System Setup or a more relevant group to address this issue? Could the USB keyboard and/or drivers be at fault and not even accepting the F2 keystroke during boot? Thanks, JamesH Tag: User account xp home edition cont alt del twice owner welcome Tag: 1886673

    - can't set .jpg MetaData over network I have two WinXP-pro SR/2 machines connected by hardwired Ethernet. A scanner is connected to one; a hard drive to hold files is connected to the other. Directory on hard drive is marked for simple file sharing and authorizing other network users to change files. Files created by the scanner can be saved to hard drive without problem. Once saved, they can be renamed without problem. However... MetaData on .jpg files cannot be edited / added from first machine with the scanner, although once metadata is added to the .jpg files via the second machine containing the hard drive, the metadata can be displayed on the first machine with the scanner.

    - Can't Install Installer Cleanup I've got an application that isn't starting up. The help forums for that App say to uninstall using MS Installer Cleanup utility.

It is looking for a file named, "msicuu.msi". When I click "cancel" (because I don't know where that file might be), I get an error dialog stating, "Error 1714.
