    - 2 part question: Other name of SYSTRAY, & need BAT or SCRIPT Hello, I have a video game that will only run if I shut down all the SYSTRAY and EXPLORER.EXE processes, so I've been told by Tech Support. The first question is this: If you look at the running processes, what is the actual IMAGE NAME of SYSTRAY? I don't see anything in there that says SYSTRAY. As I said earlier, the only way to make the game run is to delete all of the process except the aforementioned two. As you can imagine, it is very tedious to sit there and delete all of the undesired processes one-by-one. So my second question is this: Is there a way to write a BAT file so that I can get only the above mentioned processes to load? If you have a better idea on how to approach this (instead of using a BAT file), like a script (or whatever), I'm all ears. I have ADMIN rights to this PC, also, FWIW. Using XP Pro, SP2 on a 2006 Dell XPS600, with 256mb nVidia video card, with 1gb RAM. TIA. Tag: Search opens when selecting My Computer in Start Menu Tag: 154615

    - Windows Explorer Folder Icons I am sure this is somewhere within microsoft.com and perhaps the msdn network, but I have been looking for going on 4 hours now and have not found exactly what I am looking for. I know you can right click a folder and change its icon, however, the default icons use 2 - one for closed folder and one for opened folder. I assume it is in the registry somewhere. I didn't find any info on both states using the desktop.ini. How can I change the default folder icons to represent the 2 folder states, and perhaps even change the drive icons and so forth? Is there some documentation on this within the registry? Tag: Search opens when selecting My Computer in Start Menu Tag: 154607

    - Question about Folder Views My default view in windows classic folders is the list view; however when I use the detailed view I would like to establish a few options (like name, artist and duration only) every time I open a folder and use the detailed view. When I tried to establish a detailed view for all folders in the folder options section, it changes all folders from the list view to the detailed view which I don't want to do. Any suggestions?

    - Desktop background - please help! Hi, I am having issues with my desktop background and could really use some advice. For a couple of months now I have been unable to change my background picture through display properties/desktop/browse (I am using Windows XP Home), but although baffling (it was fine one day, not working the next) it was not really a problem as I could right-click in explorer and then select "Set as desktop background". Now, however, this option is missing! It is still there when I right click a picture on a website, but not in explorer! I really hope someone can help, it's such a minor problem and yet I can't figure it out at all! Thanks :) Tag: Search opens when selecting My Computer in Start Menu Tag: 154583

    - Distribute "Regedit" Folder permissions Hello, I work at IT at my university and I need to employ a microsoft KB fix that requires me to go into REGEDIT and modify FOLDER PERMISSIONS on HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion \IniFileMappings\Control.ini per http://support.microsoft.com/kb/156677 Now, everytime I need to change a string on all the lab computers (around 300) I save my .reg file and run it on each individual PC as administrator. Is there something similar or a technique I can employ here to do what I need to do on the KB without much hassle on every computer (either manually doing it or redoing image are last resorts that I would like to avoid).

    - Thumbnail View not working with video files I just recently built a new computer and installed Windows XP 64bit SP2. One of the problems I am having is that I liked being able to see thumbnails of my video files whether they be .avi, .mkv, .ogm, or .mp4. Though after transferring over all of my files I noticed that only a few .avi would still show a picture, but not all of them and especially none of the other formats. I am wondering if anyone might have a way to get around this problem since I never had it with 32bit windows. To give some basic info running 64bit XP with 4GB of ram, have WMP 10 installed by default, but use Combined Community Codec Package to watch my video files.

    - Some programs start with big delay... What could cause this? I have an effect here, that starts driving me nuts: the startup of certain programs is reproducibly delayed by about 30 seconds during which the system does apparently "nothing" (i.e. it hangs or waits for something but there is no CPU or disk activity), and only after that time the program starts up. What's esp. annoying is, that it is blocking the program that has triggered the firing up of an application during that period, not the application BEING fired up. What I want to say with this is: I e.g. click on a link in some mail in Outlook (or a link in any other program). Outlook goes non-reactive for about 30 seconds after which IE is finally started up and opens the referenced webpage. Same if I click on URLs in other programs. Or I click on a file in Explorer. Explorer (and with it the entire system's UI) hangs for said 30 seconds or so and only THEN finally the application corresponding to the filetype (e.g. a text editor or Adobe Reader or whatever) starts up and loads the file I clicked on. Strange enough starting the same programs that show such delays via a desktop icon or the start menu works "immediately" - no delay. So it is e.g. faster to copy a URL from a mail, fire up IE using the desktop icon and pasting it into the address field. If I simply doubleclick the URL, it will fire up only after half a minute. Or I can fire up my favorite text editor, it comes up immediately and I can drag the file icon from explorer into the editor and it immediately loads the file and opens it. If I doubleclick the file's icon in Explorer it takes forever until the editor comes up and displays that file (and Explorer is blocked during that time). I haven't really figured out the "pattern" behind this effect, yet.Originally I observed this for URLs only and I thought it was an Internet Explorer problem, but in the meantime I experienced this with all kinds of other applications as well. The only common denominator I see, is that the delays seem to happen always then, when the system has to determine which application it shold start based on a given filename or URL (or MIME-type). Could it be that the mechanism that derives the application responsible for a given file- or MIME-type could be the problem here? Does that ring a bell with someone? Any idea, what could cause these delays? And/or how to fix it? Michael Tag: Search opens when selecting My Computer in Start Menu Tag: 154495

    - Disable AVI Duration and Dimensions from displaying. To disable XP from displaying the Dimensions, Duration etc of AVI files, I found this little trick on the inter-web: Regsvr32 / u shmedia.dll. Before I go off and do something stupid, does anyone know if this is a safe practice? The reason I ask is that in several folders I have quite a few AVI files and Explorer is painfully slow at displaying the folder contents. I realize that I can do this on a folder by folder basis (View -> Chose Details etc), the problem here is that one must wait until Explorer has finished - kinda defeats the purpose me thinks. Any insight would be appreciated. Cheers. Tag: Search opens when selecting My Computer in Start Menu Tag: 154487

    - Is my display in power saving mode? After a certain period of inactivity my system puts my display into power saving mode. Is there any way for a program running on my system to know that this has happened? Presumably Windows knows, since it put the display in power saving mode in the first place. But perhaps it doesn't record this fact anywhere. It is one of the conditions that guarantees there is no sentient being at the controls, so applications that normally run in the background can start hogging resources normally reserved for humans. In my case, the network bandwidth. The question is: is there any way to find out? -- Steve Swift http://www.swiftys.org.uk/swifty.html http://www.ringers.org.uk Tag: Search opens when selecting My Computer in Start Menu Tag: 154482

    - Desktop Background Listbox problem..... When I right click on my XP Pro SP2 desktop and select Properties>Desktop the Background listbox doesn't just list the files in %SystemRoot%/Web/Wallpaper. It lists those plus every bmp file in the My Pictures folder and sub folders. I searched the registry for "wallpaper" and found that HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion's WallpaperDir setting was in fact set to %SystemRoot%/Web/Wallpaper. So I dno't get where the other files are coming from. The problem here is that this is a new build and I haven't even started to put in my THOUSANDS of images into My Pictures yet. When I do, if this behavior persists, it will most likely freeze my Display properties dialog and make picking out wallpaper form the thousands of images that I have quite messy if not downright impossible.
