    - XP SP3: what are the improvements? Is it faster, smoother? I was planning to install the SP3 patch, but I read that AMD-CPU users got BSO error's and allot of other problems such as boot failure's and boot-loop's and such. So, before I go thru all that, I would like to know if there are _noticeable_ improvements or speed-ups. Tag: What is it ? Tag: 1900477

    - Can't reassign program to file type Recently I noticed that my PLT files had lost their association with my plot program GOPLOT.EXE. I tried to reassociate PLT files with the program, but every time I do, Internet Explorer winds up as the associated program. Note that GOPLOT.EXE is a standalone executable and is not installed via the normal installation procedures, thus it doesn't show up on the default list of programs to associate with files, but in the past I just browsed for the program, associated it with the PLT extension, and it worked fine. GOPLOT.EXE still works if the PLT files are dropped on its icon, but a double-click on the PLT file brings up Internet Explorer. Any ideas? Tag: What is it ? Tag: 1900454

    - Windows Time and Event Log Order Hi, I have several PCs appear to have the date change on them for periods of less than an hour every couple of days or so. When I go into event viewer and look at the appplication or system event log, I leave the default view up and as you scroll down the list the date will change then change back to the right order. If I go to View/Newest First or Oldest First, it stays consistent, for instance one event will show 2/10/08, then the next 3/10/08 then the next back to 2/10/08. Changes back to the correct date appear to sometimes occur after a synchronization with a time server so I'm assuming that events in the event log have an internal date and time that is not shown, so that in the default list view the order is correct, but the date and time shown in the list view reflects the date and time in windows when the event was recorded. Do my assumptions seem correct? Has anyone seen this behaviour before? I need to understand further how the time in the BIOS and the time in Windows work with each other. I'm further assuming that the reason the events are in that order is that the BIOS time is not changing and so the internal date/time of the event then remains constant allowing me to see the correct order of events. Does this assumption appear to be correct? -- Tom B. Tag: What is it ? Tag: 1900451

    - Restoring From Windows Backup Utility I am currently running Windows XP MCE. I created a backup and put it onto an external HDD. From there I copied the .bkf file to another drive and luckily I did because the other drive crashed. However now when I go to restore the .bkf it says "Unexpected end of backup set in filename.bkf created on 5/6/2008 at 10:36AM." What can be causing this error? Tag: What is it ? Tag: 1900438

    - Fake Virus Warning I'm curious. How do you all respond to a fake virus warning (a pop-up window that says your PC is infected) when browsing the web? I've always used Task Manager - select the pop-up window and End Task it. That way I won't have to click any part of that pop-up window because it doesn't matter what we click (Yes/No, OK/Cancel) the malware will be installed. Sometimes I also wonder why malicious sites even bother asking us if we want it or not. Why don't they just install it silently? Is this because of restrictions in one of IE settings (can't install without asking)? Anyone? Tag: What is it ? Tag: 1900390

    - ACPI errors after sp3 I tried to install SP3 yesterday all went well then the machine would not reboot, BSOD. I eventually got it to boot by going into safe mode via F8 key the safe mode following failed install would not work. The error is that ACPI is not fully compatible, all was fine with the desktop prior to installing the new SP3. I have uninstalled SP3 and restored to earlier than installation of SP3 but still get the stop error. If I use F8 and boot ignore failure machine works fine in normal it just will not boot on its own with the ACPI error.

    - XP and Vista in dualboot Hi, first of all sorry for my english! I hope not to be OT, i've this problem: i wanna install Vista and XP on the same machine, a Dell notebook. Now, i now that's better to install XP, and then Vista. This way, Vista boot loader will overwrite the XP boot loader and so i'll be able to start the OS that i want. But i know also that there was a "little" compatibility problem: if Vista and XP are both installed on the same machine, XP deletes the Vista restore points and the Vista most recent backups. Has this problem been risolved by Microsoft? Or do you know any workaround? Or can you address me in the right place? Thanks a lot, bye! Tag: What is it ? Tag: 1900376

    - Windows either full-screen or closed? Over the last few months I've been noticing odd behavior with window sizing and positioning under XP Pro here at the office. I thought it was just me, and blamed HydraVision. However, today another user complained to me of a similar (but different) problem, and they have a nVIDEA card. Basically, on her machine a small but growing number of programs will not "maximize" correctly. The window can be put into maximized mode, but will not come back out of it. Clicking the button again, to return it to normal sizing, makes the entire window disappear from the screen. Interestingly, there's no "resize animation" at all, it simply disappears, *poof*. This first appeared in a custom 3rd party app so we thought it was just a bug, but today it suddenly appeared in Outlook. Rebooting does not help, nor does all of our fidling with the control panels. Any ideas? Tag: What is it ? Tag: 1900374

    - File association icon missing Hi all, I have a laptop, Win XP, SP2, IE7. I installed Acrobat Reader 8.1.2. After experiencing some odd behavior (will open new post if I can't resolve) I uninstalled Acrobat Reader. After some tweaking and after I was -fairly- convinced that all was well I reinstalled Acrobat Reader; however, none of my PDF files show the Acrobat logo icon next to them, instead, the generic Windows file icon is present. Acrobat Reader will open if I double click the PDF file. I opened My Computer and proceeded to Tools/Folder options/Filetypes, selected the PDF file type, clicked the Advanced Button, followed up by clicking the Change Icon Button, navigated to where the AcroRd32.exe file was located, clicked Ok on various dialogs to get back to the main My Computer window. I then closed the My Computer window, reopened it, navigated to a folder where I have PDF files and found that the generic icon remains. I rebooted the laptop, but that did not help any. Is there something else that I am missing? Thanks! Saga -- Tag: What is it ? Tag: 1900360

    - XP Home: How to overcome problem of unresponsive programs ? Dear Sir, My PC is running on Window XP Home Edition. It is a Pentium 4 PC with 520 MB of RAM. I noticed quite often that the desktop program such as Outlook Express, MS Works Spreadsheet and Word Processor can easily become unresponsive after my PC is idle for some time. I need to exit these unresponsive program by Ctrl +Alt + Del > End Task. Usually an error log would be sent from my PC to MS for this event. I have scanned my PC using Window Defender, performing system maintenance using check disk , disk defragmenter and disk clean up. However these problem still unresolved. For your information, my PC is up-to-date in term of Window updates and Service Packs May I know if there is any trouble shooting tool or driver / utilities downloads available at MS Website to fix this problem? What I am hoping most is for my PC to run smoothly . Thanks Low -- A36B58K641 Tag: What is it ? Tag: 1900318

    - Do you think Windows Vista is slow, crash-prone, or unreliable? Join the crowd. My comment: Im posting this to the XP newsgroup too, just so they can be even more warned about how bad vista is, and to avoid it. I still cannot understand how stupid some vista fanboys like frank and others are about vista. Here all the world is saying vista is crap, yet they put their fingers in their ears and march to their own microsoft vista tune! Article: http://blogs.zdnet.com/Bott/?p=437 read the rest of this article on the above link Do you think Windows Vista is slow, crash-prone, or unreliable? Join the crowd. Over the past year, reviews of Windows Vista by mainstream media outlets, the technical press, bloggers, and ordinary users have been, for the most part, scathing. And many of those bad reviews were absolutely accurate. My co-authors and I just completed an extensive post-Service Pack 1 revision of our book Windows Vista Inside Out. Over the past year, we installed, upgraded, and used Windows Vista on a broad cross-section of hardware designs from nearly a dozen manufacturers. During that time, we experienced some of those same performance, reliability, and compatibility issues ourselves. What we found was simple: With a clean install on well-supported hardware, everything worked just fine. But toss in an incompatible application or a flaky video, storage, or network driver, and performance could suffer. Badly. Over the past year or so, we have also observed steady and occasionally dramatic improvements in the Windows ecosystem. Most of the large issues in Windows Vista were effectively resolved by a series of updates delivered via Windows Update, including more than 500 fixes that were rolled up into Service Pack 1. Third-party hardware makers, many of whom were slow to get working Vista drivers out the door, have since released updates that can make a huge difference in the Vista experience. Tag: What is it ?

    - Deleting CAB Files ? Is it SAFE or NOT ? Running Win XP3, (just upgraded from SP2), and noticed that HD has 394,959 KB of CAB Files, in various folder locations either in Windows , Program Files or Temp Files, these files are identified as = (i.e; i386,- Install Shield Information,- MSN Toolbar Suite, -Temp/tbsc/disk1/disk2, etc, etc,etc.) I identified these files with Easy Cleaner, and they are all showing file Type as "WinZip Files". Question: is it safe to remove these CAB files, by backing them up to a CD Rom, and removing from my HD. It's not a matter of requiring additional HD space, have 88 GB still available, with external HD 180 GB left. Any assistance in answering this question would be greatly appreciated.

    - Document Viewer self installing I've googled this a lot and there seems to be no real answers out there... I recently attempted to uninstall AOL software... and now... Whenever I startup my laptop I get 'Document viewer' wanting to install. After failing, it then asks me to insert the document viewer cd rom. Which I don't have because all my microsoft/windows applications were pre-loaded. After hitting cancel on this, it retries another 2 times and then comes up with a box from .NET telling me there was an exception and that an object wasn't where it wanted to be one etc... When looking in the event viewer I get 2 warning notes for Msi Installer - event 1001 and event 1004. How do I stop it??? Can I just find microsoft document viewer as a free download somewhere???

    - KB936929 disabled my PC I was running Windows XP Media Center 2005 with AMD Athlon processor, SP2 and all updates. Last night when I got home from work I had the little shield telling me that Microsoft updates were available. I installed the update, KB936929. When it was done I got the message saying the update was successful and ready to reboot. I let the PC reboot and it goes into an infinite boot sequence. I get the black screen where I can select what I wanted loaded, I let it default to Windows XP. I then get the HP logo screen, then a black screen apologizing that the boot failed, and if I've recently installed new drivers or software to uninstall it. The boot process continues like this forever. After trying this a few times I selected the option to boot from the last known good session. This didn't change anything, still infinite boot sequence. I tried to go into Safe Mode but got a black screen saying that <windows> \system32\hal.dll is missing or corrupt, suggesting that I replace it. I've been doing backups using Acronis to an external disk. I guess I'll have to go this route to get the PC functional again. I've never used Acronis to restore a disk, so I'm hopeful. My one question is: should I do the restore during a full moon, or new moon. :) Tag: What is it ? Tag: 1900277

    - need help, XP wont let me in. Hello,,,, I have developed a problem with my dual boot system. I have win98 and xp,, win98 being on the c: drive, and xp on the d drive. I switched to xp today after a reboot, all seemed okay as it went through the normal motions, then it produced a screen as if xp had been installed for the first time;; then just ceased up. I havent used xp a great deal, and it doesnt have access to the internet. When I open win' explorer, (via booting back to win98) it shows my D: drive with all of the things that are loaded into xp, including all new folders and stuff that I created last time I was there. (oh, xp was loaded on using fat32, and has been that way for over a year without a problem.) So, one of my main concerns right now is the fact that xp is the boot manager for the dual-boot, and I sure as heck dont want to lose the ability to boot into win98. I have heard that there is a repair tool on my xp disc, and was wondering whether I should try to use that? I also dont have my product key anymore. I downloaded 'magicjellybean' product key finder, and saved it to a file in win98, then from there created a folder on xp (d: drive) and copied it into there,, but realised that I was still in a 98 environment and hence couldnt fire it up to find xp's product number..... still, I dont even know if I need that at this stage because I have the original disc anyway. Can anyone advise on what I should do, or better still, what any of you here would do in the same situation? Basically, I havent really tried anything yet, thought I would come here first. Have run all the obvious antivirus and malaware programs, comes up clean for win98. Thank you for input. Tag: What is it ? Tag: 1900250

    - How to backup IE7 Favorites sort order? Hi, when I had IE6 the method outlined below worked perfectly to backup the Favorites sort order (to make it clear, I'm not referring to backing up the Favorites which can be done from within IE using File/Import-Export, I'm referring to being able to back them up so I can later restore them in the EXACT same custom sort order as originally, so I don't have to manually drag hundreds of bookmarks to the order in which they were originally). [i]Sort order is not preserved when you transfer favorites to another PC If you use the Import/Export Wizard or manually copy the URL favorites to another system, the sort order will not be copied to the target system. This is because Windows stores the sort order in the registry. Neither the Import/Export Wizard or manual copy operation will reference the sort order registry key. In order to have the sort order applied to the other PC, export the following registry from the source PC: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MenuOrder\Favorites Save the above key as a REG file and apply this in the other computer. The sort order is now copied/overwritten.[/i] The issue is that in IE7 I checked that resgistry key but it seems to not have the favorites in the original sort order but ordered alphabetically. So how can I do it in IE7? Thanks Tag: What is it ? Tag: 1900246

After I delete them, the same thing happens over and over each time I enter it. Is there anything I can do to fix this problem? Thanks for any help Tag: What is it ? Tag: 1900199

Found under c:/Program Files a folder called "illminable" I have no idea what
it is for or were it came from.
