    - Calling on heavy guns: need help On my computer WinXP PRO SP3 each action involving any .avi file is causing Data Execution Prevention (DEP) intervention. And it even does not involve openning .avi file. Any click on .avi file (mouse left or right click), action like copying, renaming, anything is invoking DEP and Dr.Watson shutting down the Windows Explorer. It does happen to every .avi file I have on my system and that includes some sample .avi supplied with commercial products. It must be the real .avi file. When I renamed .txt file to .avi file there was not problem with that "new" .avi file. Why my Windows does not like .avi files? My DEP settings are set to default settings: "Turn on DEP for Essential Windows programs and services only" and I want to keep it that way.

    - Is there a log file for disk check in XP? Hi, Does anyone know if there is any type of report I can look at after I run a disk check in XP via Disk Properties->Tools->Check Now... When the scan completes it just displays a message box "Scan complete". That's it (can you think of a more useless message Microsoft?) Please do not suggest Event Viewer, as there is nothing there Thanks in advance Tag: Downloading and Installing XP SP3 Tag: 324622

    - Defrag Hard Drive I'm running Windows XP Pro SP2. I ran the defrag analysis on my 57G hard drive and got a recommendation to defrag. I stopped it after 4 hours, showing only 10% complete, so that I could do some work. Extrapolating the first 10%, that's almost two 24 hour days to fully defrag. Does that sound reasonable? Is the benefit worth the time required? Thanks for your feedback. Tag: Downloading and Installing XP SP3 Tag: 324608

    - Offline File Folder/Subfolder Structure I recently bought a laptop to use at work, Win XP Pro on board. I read through how to set up the "offline files" so I could work on my networked files at home and then sync up again when connected back up at work. (I had been doing this previously with a flash drive and Briefcase.) Well, the initial sync worked, set up all the files in an offline file folder on the desktop, but when I looked at the files, they are in one big list, no subfolder structure shows...the listing shows that their original location still is in a subfolder, but it didn't copy the subfolder structure over (and I DID click the little box that asked if I wanted the subfolders synced.) I am a little new to messing around with networked files, and I don't want to do something that will go back and screw up the files on the network when I sync up next, so I didn't want to just "try" stuff... Anyone know how to get the new offline files to mimic the network subfolder structures? I have a dozen folders and hundreds of subfolders...not like I can just "rebuild" this myself and put the files in it... Thanks. Tag: Downloading and Installing XP SP3 Tag: 324511

I wish to create an identical disk (a new hard disk) to my C drive (bootable) so that when drive C crashes, I would have a back up to it. The drive letter to the new hard disk is D. I can format it with Disk Management, but was unable to make it a bootbale drive. Had tried in DOS with the command: FORMAT D: /s, but failed. Any helps? If it is impossible to do it this way as Windows prohibits to format D as a system drive, then what other ways to achieve this? Thanks. sengke Tag: Downloading and Installing XP SP3 Tag: 324495

    - Access an XP data drive (no OS installed) using Vista Ultimate I have already taken ownership over what I was able to via the "Security" tab and it does show that I am the current owner re the admin portion of the drive, HOWEVER, physically...I am unable to view ANY directory or folders on this drive. Vista only shows a drive letter and when I click on drive...says "no access". Windows Vista recognizes only that it is a drive...but will not allow me physical access to it. This was only a slave (data drive) only. And some folders did have password protection, however, like I said...I have already changed ownership rights to the drive. I was the administrator of this "data" drive in my previous system and have all passwords, etc...it is just not allowing me to physically get into the drive to navigate around. So, what I need is clarification that there IS a way to physically access my SATA drive in my Vista system and if there are software settings I need to change in the security tabs first what are they? Will I need to put this drive back into a XP system? I would have to build or buy one...as all of my systems are currently Vista systems. then what is the best, most efficient way to get 200gb of data to my Vista system? -- John C - Midwest, USA Tag: Downloading and Installing XP SP3 Tag: 324440

I had that configured to use 2 processors but when I tried to get it going, it complained that it only found 1 processor and refused to start.

    - XP keeps rebooting This started yesterday and I thought it might be SP3. First boot of the morning worked fine. Then I shut it down and later that morning the wife started up the machine. I have two hard drives, both equiped with XP home off the same CD. Well, it gets as far as Loading windows but never gets to the Welcome screen before rebooting. I thought it might be SP3 so I uninstalled it, windows did an update that morning, thus I removed them as well. If I unplug the slave HD, it works fine. If I switch the Slave to Master and vice versa, it boots fine. The issue is them booting together. I am sure it is probably a driver issue, but how do I find that out?

    - MMC?? After booting to my Slave Hard Drive (a clone of the Master), I decided to do some cleanup there. I tried Defrag, but it wouldn't open and gave me an error window, saying MMC (Microsoft Management Console, as I recall it) was not available or I didn't have access to it. I own this whole system and don't share it with anybody, so one would think that I might not be denied access to MMC. Not that I asked for access or knew it existed..... Yes, I can defrag it as the F-Drive while running C:, but is this MMC thing something that I ought to fix? Like, it's a clone to use as a replacement when the Master dies, and then I'd sure want full capability. Tag: Downloading and Installing XP SP3 Tag: 324376
