    - Unable to write to my NEC DVD_RW ND-3550A I can read a previously written cd or dvd but cannot write to a blank disk (cd/dvd)in the D drive. When attempting to write to the drive containing a blank CD I get an error message that there isn't a disc in the drive. Properties says that the free space and used space on the cd in the drive are zero. I can read the drive using Image Burn and it gives the correct amount of space used/available. I can also burn to the drive using Image Burn. This would preclude a defective drive. Am not sure when the problem occurred. By that I mean that I have not used the drive for a month or so and during that period something such as an new program could have changed the registry in such a manner as to prevent writing/recognizing a blank cd in the drive. Trouble shooting thus far: Based upon an MVP suggestion I changed the upper and lower filters in the registry to upperfiltersold and lowerfiltersold. Following this change I was able to read a CD, however I still cannot burn a CD. Prior to the change I could not read a previously recorded CD. The mvp suggestion was directed to another writer/poster and I had no direct communication with the mvp. The forum I was monitoring is: forums.microsoft.com/msdn. You might ask, why didn't I chat with the MVP... good question.. the answer is that I did not have my newsreader active until today, hence could not post. Also tried a system restore... but for some reason or another the OS will not restore..(restore is enabled) which makes me think that my problems are not just related to the driver/drive issue... The usual suspects for messing up the registry are Canon, Kodak, Itunes, Quicktime, Adobe photoshop and PhotoStudio. My problem is that I don't know how to go about isolating the above suspects as being the culprit of if indeed they might Note. Read in the one the Microsoft newsgroups.. don't ask which one.. the Kodak easyshare is notorious for messing up the registry.. Anyway I certainly will appreciate any information/solution that might be offered.

    - I need to password protect my pc at startup I have XP Home on my PC at work. I need to protect my computer so NO ONE else can get on to it. I know someone has been coming into the office after hours and on weekends and reading my emails and looking at files. Personal emails have been read and then marked unread but when I click them typically the person sending has "send a receipt" when opening emails and on Mondays I'm not getting that message if I reply to an email and the sender again replies then I do get that. Also when looking at properties on files it will say when it was last accessed and it will be a time I was not at work. So... How do I make my computer secure? Is using windows logon with a password secure enough so no one else can get on my pc? Is there a better way to protect my machine? Thanks in Advance! K Tag: Font color on the desktop change How?

It goes back with a box thats says that is the max. size for fat32 file allocation. How do we backup an entire drive to a USB harddrive (150GB). ?? Is there an easy way to back up and keep the file format of the exisiting files, not security copy to a single file ?? Tag: Font color on the desktop change How? Tag: 324286

    - Re Failure to boot in Safe Mode Further to my earlier messages:- My machine is running XP Pro SP3, and I recently changed my disc over to be connected via a PCI card "ITE IT8212 ATA RAID Controller". This was necessary as the motherboard does not support large discs in the bios. The system loads OK in normal mode, but will not load in Safe Mode. It gets to the state where I see a display of the drivers being loaded, but then drops back to the initial loading sequence. Further, if I try "last good", I'm pretty sure that a program error of some sort occurs (I see a quick flash of a blue screen with what looks like some error message), and again the machine drops back to the initial loading sequence. How can I diagnose these problems (I guess they are connected). I don't seem to have the option of a bootlog for the Safe mode, and, if I set it on in the boot init file, surely it will also be on for the normal load following, and overwrite the data I want to see! PS I have checked that I have the most recent driver for the board (dated 2007). Tag: Font color on the desktop change How? Tag: 324267

    - video card making noise I have an ATI Fire GL X1 AGP Pro graphics card and the fan is making noise. In fact it's been making noise now for almost a year, but it used to be just when I started it after it had been shut down for a while. Now, it's doing it constantly. If you can take a look at it on ATI's website, what do you think about taking the fan off and replacing it with a Zalman GPU fan. Or is it possible to do that with this card?

    - Firewall problem. Hi. This problem had only developed recently, and I haven't changed anything I'm aware of. Can anyone throw some light please? XP pro, SP2, full updates. (Not seen SP3 at all). Dual core intel CPU, 2 gig ram, 8800GTX graphics. High spec home PC. I use Mozilla Thunderbird as my email client. It has been working perfectly under all updates for years. I use Zonealarm (free) as a firewall, and have a Sky router and broadband with it's internal firewall. Windows firewall is off. This has all been in place for a long time and nothing has been modified, moved of even had the dust wiped off. The problem is... I suddenly realised I hadn't had any mails for three days. I thought no one wanted to talk to me, so I checked with my provider to find all is OK there. Checked for updates on thunderbird, all up to date. Checked Zonealarms permissions, and thunderbird had nice big green ticks allowing access. Still no email. Disable zone alarm. Email flows. Aha, whats up with ZA I wonder? I reload it, delete the current entry for thunderbird and force it to ask for permissions again. They are granted, but still no mail through ZA. Shut ZA, mail flows. Hmmmmm. Uninstall ZA. Install another firewall, Agnitum Outpost. *IT* won't allow email either after granting permissions. Close it down, email flows. Hmmmmmmmmm. Uninstall Outpost, install ZA suite, the latest, paid for setup. Email asks for permission, but no mail! Arghhhhhhh. Shut it down, mail flows. So, what have these steps got in common? 3 firewalls, none will pass email even with permission granted, but when shut down it works ok. Not hardware related. Which software? ZA? Outpost? Or is it a windows thing? Has there been a security update that is interfering maybe? All other internet activity works OK. I can play online games at good pings with ZA in place, surf, usenet etc. Please, can anyone help? Thanks. Tag: Font color on the desktop change How? Tag: 324197

    - microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics folders I presently subscribe to just this Microsoft newsgroup. Whenever I open its folder, the highlighted number (in brackets) after the group's name, which shows how many messages are unread), will often not relate to the actual unread messages. For example, the highlighted number can be 24 but there can be as few as 4 or 5 actual unread messages. Sometimes, when there are no actual unread messages, there is a highlighted number showing. If I close the folder and then immediately open it, the highlighted number will often change to a different number. Using the "Catch Up" facility does not stop this happening. It's no big problem, just annoying. Advice much appreciated. Joe Steele Tag: Font color on the desktop change How? Tag: 324176

    - Startup message from System Configuration Utility I used "msconfig" to get rid of a "DevDtc2.exe" error message on startup. Now when I bootup I get the following: You have used the System Configuration Utility to make changes to the way Windows starts. The Sys Config Utility is currently in Diagnostic of Selective Startup mode, causing this message to be displayed and the utility to run every time Windows starts. Choose the Normal Startup mode on the General tab to start Windows normally and undo the changes you made using the Sys Config Utility. Does this mean there is something wrong with my computer or should I just choose "Normal Startup" on the General Tab? Thanks in advance. Tag: Font color on the desktop change How? Tag: 324173

    - Uninstalling SP3 The sequence is like this: I installed SP3 and had no trouble doing so, or any observed irregularities thereafter. Then HP told me to upgrade the ATI BIOS in my Compaq Presario, and I did. Now the bad news: Some of the USB ports are now invisible, and HP and AMD say that's because I never upgraded to .NET Framework 2.0. I had 2.0 a while back and uninstalled it because of incompatibility with other software. It seems there's no way to live stably in this electronic world. I pulled one of my pre-SP3 clones into service, and it works with the old BIOS and I'm thinking of uninstalling SP3 from my Master Drive, along with the 'upgraded' BIOS. In truth, my system was not broke, and it didn't need fixing with either SP3 or the upgraded BIOS. So my question is, is there a safe, convenient, reasonable way to uninstall SP3? I see it in Add/Remove Programs...is that all there is, just Remove it there? Will that put me back just as XP was before I installed SP3? Tag: Font color on the desktop change How? Tag: 324171

    - Draging item into folder opens that folder. I don't want it too I'm organzing HUNDREDS of graphics on my machine in Windows Explorer. I created basic folders with titles to organize them into. Now I am finding my old folders that hold my graphics and am dragging them into the newly created folders. Problem is ever time I drag one over, the new folder automatically opens up to display all the files in it. Is there a way to stop that? I have to close the folder every time because it then pushes my other folders below out of sight. Is it possible to force folders to NOT open when dragging items or folders into them via Windows Explorer? Thanks so much! Nancy Tag: Font color on the desktop change How? Tag: 324164

    - I have starzplay and Zune downloaded, but they will not play. Help I have downloaded from Verizon, starzplay. And I just bought a Zune. I have downloaded starzplay since June 5th. And cannot get it to play. An error message comes up saying the starz tray has encountered a problem and needs to close. I have talked with verizon techs, starzplay people, and have numerous trouble tickets waiting... no luck. Then with my new Zune, last night I installed the software, then to my amazement, it said that it is finished installing and then I went to sync, and the error message came up and said that Zune has encountered a problem and needs to close. These programs have to be related somehow, I am so frustrated. Thank you in advance for the help. -- diana Tag: Font color on the desktop change How? Tag: 324163

    - M/Bd Sound My drivers on my mother board for the 'onboard' sound keep disappearing. I have to put the M/Bd Cd back in and reinstall. This happens quite a lot. M/Bd L7VMM2 Socket A. I have had this board for a few years now and never given trouble like this before. I have just reformatted the drive and reinstalled XP but it is still happening. I tried a Sound card I had and that worked ok but it altered all my Capture Card installation and rendered that inoperable. As it's a new install I wouldn't expect any viruses or spyware. Any help please. Tag: Font color on the desktop change How? Tag: 324152

    - Monitor won't start, stays yellow on LED I changed my motherboard battery and it turned out it was dead, because the PC wouldn't fire up at all, just dead. When I went through everything you could think of, reseating the RAM, checking the power supply, changing the video card, changing the hard drive, changing the monitor and finally taking the heatsink and fan assembly off , cleaning it and reapplying the arctic silver, it turned out to be the motherboard battery. I forgot completely about that. But, when I finally replaced it and then fired it up, the monitor stayed yellow in the LED. I changed the jumper on the motherboard over to default, or to the other prong, whatever you want to call it, it has 3 prongs and I changed it over from 1 to 2 or from 2 to 3 whatever. When I did that the PC didn't even fire up. Nothing! When I changed it back to the original position it fired up, but the same problem of the monitor not working. Now there was progress because nothing was happening when you pushed the power button. Now you get the fans moving and the hard drive spinning or getting warm. Maybe it's the hard drive? I did check the hard drive and replaced it with another one. I'm going to try a new hard drive that hasn't been used before and give that a shot. One thing, if you change the motherboard battery and then you have problems you should be able to adjust the jumper on the motherboard to default and then switch it back. Even the tech at Dell said to do that and it would be ok. I guess not. Well, the motherboard is a M7VIG 400 that supports AMD processors and the chip is an AMD Sempron 2200. I think it's the motherboard that's screwy. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, attilathehun1 -- attilathehun1 Tag: Font color on the desktop change How? Tag: 324148

    - Where the new window will open I use two monitors for an expanded desktop. How do you control where new windows will open. Often I'll be using explorer to look at something, and click a link to open a new window, and it pops up on the other screen, or when doing repetitive work, the new window will begin to creep towards the edge of screen 1 after several repititions of opening and closing, to eventually begin appearing, half on one screen and half on another. Is there a setting or technique I can use to anchor where the new window opens, so it's consistent time after time? RES Tag: Font color on the desktop change How? Tag: 324143

    - Windows XP and Zune I cant believe I spent 250$ on a Zune and it's not compatible with my Windows XP. Now for it to work I have to buy a whole new operating system at an additional 120$. Way too much hassle for something that should work with the OS I have. Thanks Microsoft! Next time label your boxes better. Tag: Font color on the desktop change How? Tag: 324128

    - System Restore disabled on reboot I am running XP Home with SP3. I have a problem that existed before installing SP3.. When I rebooot the PC and goto System restore, I get the prompt that tells me that SR has been turned off. I go to the SR screen and enable it, create a restore point and it all works fine. When I reboot the PC, SR gets switched off somehow and it goes back to the SR turned off message. I have inspected logs using event viewer and after reboot their is an entry " Event 116 System Monitoring disabled on reboot". This happens every time I reboot. Any ideas appreciated Tag: Font color on the desktop change How? Tag: 324123

    - CMOS after changing mobo battery Ok, I found out all I needed to do was to change the 3 volt 2032 motherboard battery and all would have been ok. Instead I reseated the RAM sticks, changed the power supply, changed the video card, changed the IDE parallel straps, changed the monitor, changed the hard drive, and finally took out the motherboard and removed the heatsink and fan asembly off the CPU chip and checked the chip out. After all that it turns out the reason the PC stopped working was the little 3 volt battery on the motherboard. It worked again for a little while, maybe a day after I changed the monitor. Just like a flashlight that is going dead, after you sit it for a while the next day you will get some power and it will work for a while and then dim out. Tell tail signs of battery failure. By accident I was checking this new battery checker device that I bought from Home Depot and I needed batteries to check to see if the settings worked and found out the battery wasn't working. Ok, now lets get to the CMOS. There is a CMOS jumper on the motherboard that I see. What do I need to do to the jumper or do I need to physically do anything on the mobo or just go into BIOS and configure something there? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    - Drive mapping syntax I use logon scripts to map drives for select users. Is there a way I can format what the user sees? I don't want the actual drive letter or path to show up in Explorer, just the folder/mapped drive name. I know I can do this if I map it manually, but want to continue to use logon scripts.

    - Safe Mode Problem I am using windows XP SP3 via a disc on a PCI card. Whilest this boots and loads perfectly happily in normal mode, it fails to load in Safe Mode. Is there anything I can do to get safe mode working via this card? It is not necessary at the moment, but perhaps in the future? PS I notice that there is a driver associated with this card called "iteraid.sys". Tag: Font color on the desktop change How? Tag: 324091
