7003.	Solve : need help..what to do??
Answer» It seems like my CPU usage goes up really high even with very few programs RUNNING, which is making my computer make a very loud noise...sounds like one of the fans may be BLOWING loudly. This did happen late last year when we made the switch from dial up to cable internet. Around march this year I had another 512mb memory stick put in and that seemed to help a lot with making the noise stop....up until a week ago that is. Now the computer is making that loud noise again. Should I maybe upgrade both memory slots to 1gb?? Or maybe there is something else going on? I figured it was the memory since adding more months ago helped but now I don't know. This computer is only about 2 years old I didn't think any fans WOULD be going bad but maybe they are. Just figured I would get opinions here FIRST. I can't afford to be doing much to this thing at this time so I hope it's nothing costly.When did you last run a virus check? This morning, gets scanned everyday.Have you looked in Task Manager and seen what is using up CPU? Doing anything is making it go high, just looking at certain websites, playing games, even doing just the disc cleanup. It's really nothing in particular. I really hate computers sometimes How much RAM have you installed?So did you run task manager and see how many processes are running and which ones are the CPU hogs?

7009.	Solve : XP smooth scrolling?
Answer» Using XP Professional and have SET all the settings in Internet Options Advance for smooth scrolling. It will not smooth scroll using EITHER the mouse wheel or sider bar. Any ideas would be helpful. OjasSame THING in Firefox? Did you try ANOTHER mouse?

7010.	Solve : Program will not install - (default drive must be write enabled)?
Answer» I am trying to instal a Dos base program. Window pops up....................Default drive must be write enabled. I have no idea what this means any help greatly appreciated Computer Intel (R) Pentium (R) 4 CPU 1.80 GhzWhat kind of media are you trying to instal the program from? If it's a floppy disk then write enable it... The installer might want to write to the floppy. Its a CD, Australian Vital Records Index.Hi sorry its The NSW Pioneers Index and its a CD It is now saying it cannot read NSWPI.CFG.Hi Perhaps you could create a folder on your Hard drive and copy the relevant folder(s) from the CD ONTO the hard drive, and then run the installer from your hard drive. Regards Alan There's a discussion here about non functioning Pioneer cd's and the AFFECT Norton AV has, also this might help with your problem. Good LUCKHI Dusty, thanks for the info. The DISC's work on my other comp and it is windows xp home edition. I just thought I would use the other comp for my personal info and research with no connection to the internet (playing safe) but I'm about to spit chips with this computer too. Two comps and they are both a headache. Many thanks Tabby

7012.	Solve : Can I backup my harddrive befor i restore it??
Answer» Gave my old pc to my son, had not gotten around to backing up my picture files yet. Well he tells me its not working, after some investigation I find out that instead of shutting down the pc properly each time, he simply has been unplugging it. I mean, every time bless his cotton socks no matter how much I have always drilled into his 10yr old brain this is a bad thing to do. Before I RESTORE it, which of course will wipe my files is there any way to rescue my pictures?If the PC will no longer boot, you could try that hard drive in another MACHINE. it will then show up as an additional drive, and you should be able to get your pictures from it. Hope this helps, and welcome to the forum.It's one of those all in the monitor media machines, you cannot access the hard drive. Yes, not my wisest of purchases but unfortunately all I can get to is the memory. It does not seem to recognise the C drive in DOS either so I am guessing this means the drive was never formatted.If you can't access the drive, you could take it to a computer shop where they will be able to rescue your pictures for a fee. There are some other ways you could try but it can get quite technical - not to do you down but you did list your experience as Beginner, so I'm only going on that.Well after much investigation on the web I found the information I needed. Just went into Dos and at C prompt typed in CHKDSK. This picked up the errors. Rebooted SYSTEM and no more loop in and out of the 'their has been an error loading XP' screen with the various options it has all loaded properly . now you need to find a way to make your son shut down properly!

7014.	Solve : XP won't start in normal or safe mode after BSOD?
Answer» I didn't think you would, I'm just paranoid about things like error messages and warnings. I like complete confirmation. Thank you so much for helping me. I'll try it immediately.Question: What do I do after that, and if it gets me in, then what? Uninstall Macdrive?After that remove the XP CD and re-boot...hit F8 repeatedly as it's powering up to enter safemode. Then use Add/Remove to get rid of MacDrive. Then buy a Mac if you want the Mac experience. I have a Mac. I wanted my PC to recognize my Ipod as a drive. You didn't read the description of Macdrive did you? I booted into safe mode successfully, but in add/remove programs when trying to remove Macdrive, it said: The WINDOWS Installer Service could not be ACCESSED. This can occur because you are running Windows in safe mode, or if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed. Contact your support personnel for assistance. Since you are, I did.I would still follow the steps in the post above... Then re-boot and re-install the MacDrive software after Visiting Here...So I do not need to uninstall Macdrive before doing a repair install? Is it necessary to re-install Macdrive after the repair install? I do not really need it I suppose.You can do it either way... Keep in mind i'm not trying to DISCOURAGE you from using MacDrive...it MAY just be a funky install...but it's related to when you started having issues.I was just EXPERIMENTING. You haven't discouraged me from using it, it has. I'll try the repair install now. Thanks for the help.

7018.	Solve : Problems reinstalling XP?
Answer» I had some computer issues and decided to reinstall XP. Got a virus or something. I downloaded Google Desktop and everything just went bad from there reboots SLOW computer etc etc.. Anyway, I deleted the partion STARTED the reinstall. Everything seems to be going fine but when it starts to copy files I get "cant copy file" screen "press enter to retry press ESC to skip" so I tap ENTER some files will copy and some wont so I have to escape and skip them. In the end XP wont WORK because of the missing files. Any ideas on how to get XP to install or why this is happening. I have tried to reinstall a couple times and happens every time.Is it genuine Windows XP CD? If so, clean it. See, if the CD works in another computer.

By the way, do you have a cat? http://www.ymmv.com/goodreads/catcomp.html

7021.	Solve : Weird screen behavior! please i really need help!?
Answer» Today i was using my computer just like normal and then suddenly the screen just froze.. at first i though it was just a normal freeze since i know it can happen sometimes... still i never got it on my computer before. The difference from a normal freeze was that in the screen it appeared small rectangles which was in very BIG pixels and then it froze totally, i tried doing alt+f4 since this happened while i was playing a game on the computer, then nothing happened so i tried doing control+alt+delete, and still no response. So then i tried rebooting it. The computer booted up just like normal, but as soon i came to the ''log on to your login user'' page the problems began. the first time i did it i couldn't even see the login screen, the screen was just all black, and again these weird rectangles again... i tried again, this time the screen was just all black, no rectangles, and once more, then i ACTUALLY saw the login screen a bit, but the screen clearness was just terrible, and again these small rectangles everywhere which was i really big pixels. But the computer worked in this bad clearness of the screen, but it was at least 10 times slower than normally and suddeny the screen just turned black again and the rectangles disappeared, and then it got back to the login screen with bad clearness and the rectangles Please, what shall i do? i cannot use my computer at all! i need help!I'm no expert, but you might want to post your computer specs so that the expert can see what all you have for your computer. Good luck!thanks i am using a laptor which i had for about 3-4 years now, i haven't really had any problems before with it. (its a laptop) Acer Travelmate 4652LMi intel Pentium M 740 processor 2MB L2 cache, 1.73GHz, 533MHz FSB , (i don't think i have that one anymore tho...i uppgraded to a faster one for not 2 long ago think its a 4MB or something, what i can remember it was double up. 15.0''SXGA+TFT LCD NVIDIA GeForce Go 6600/64MB VRAM 80GB HDD DVD-super Multi double layer (support DVD+R Double layer/DVD+RW) 512MB DDR2 (support dual channel *802.11b/g wireless LAN Well i hope this helps..i didn't really know what to write so i just basicly copied of what it said on my computer and i can't understand half of what this means either, but if hope you do It sounds to me like it's overheating. Turn your laptop off and unplug it. Blow into all the vents you can find, they'll be mainly underneath or on the sides. If there is a fan you can see, use something to hold it still while you blow, like a toothpick or cotton swab. If you have a can of compressed air that would work even better. Hopefully this will dislodge some dust, and it may help with the overheating, if that's the PROBLEM. Let us know how it goes....i tried STARTING it again..it worked this time, without me having to do anything i just left it for 30mins-1hr, but after about 20 sec the bad pixels and rectangles and stuff came back, its really slow as well, but i can at least see the screen this time even if things are slow... it has overheated before, but just when i play games on it, else i can do ANYTHING on it without it overheating, i think it might be the battery, but i cant understand how that can affect the screen...because if i remember correctly my computer warned about my battery was bad and that i should change it immidiatly, but i couldn't..i only have 1 battery...pls help An overheating graphics card would mean the display would get corrupted, causing those rectangles, black screens, etc. When you play games the graphics card gets used, so it would heat up - at any other time it's not being stressed, so it wouldn't overheat. If your battery is bad you should buy a new one, old batteries have been known to cause problems.ok, thanks! well i guess the graphic card is really getting used since i play the online game ''WORLD of warcraft'' a lot, and thats usually when my computer overheats, but when it overheats it usually just freezes the screen for about 3 sec and then it reboots itself again...this time i just froze and nothing happened...so u sugest that i should buy a new graphic card as well? ???and if so, do you have anything u can recommed? that is good but doesn't cost too much.., and aprox what would u think the price would be? You can't upgrade the graphics in a laptop. Follow the instructions in my first reply to try to eliminate the overheating. If that doesn't work, your graphics card may be damaged. Also, overheating is a serious event, if it causes the computer to shut off due to heat then that's a big problem, it could cause damage.

7022.	Solve : Task manager is not working?
Answer» I am RUNNING WINDOWS XP, the task manager is not working. How can I fix this?WELCOME to CH. We need more INFORMATION, PLEASE look here.

7023.	Solve : XP shutdown?
Answer» Even after re formatting the hard drive to SOLVE the shutdown problem, the same occurs. Must be a hardward problem, but possibly temp related. SYSTEM temp is showing 91 degrees, and CPU temp is 109 degrees. Would that be the problem, or it that NORMAL? If normal, what is the next thing to try?if 109F thats fine if 109C then thats a problem!!! I'd check the power supply to make sure it is healthy, a low voltage can cause this. Your MOTHERBOARD should show voltage levels in the system information CPU health screen. Voltages should not be off by much, CPU Core voltage and +5 is most critical voltage to MB operation. 12V is for drives and cooling fans etc. Did this topic start somewhere ELSE? What shutdown problem?Even 109F (43C), if it's an idle desktop, may be a problem.I'd check the power supply to make sure it is healthy, a low voltage can cause this. Your motherboard should show voltage levels in the system information CPU health screen. Voltages should not be off by much, CPU Core voltage and +5 is most critical voltage to MB operation. 12V is for drives and cooling fans etc. yes..first you try apply heat sink on processor.

7029.	Solve : installing new ram?
Answer» I have acquired 2 512 ram cards and have attempted to install them in my previously 256k ram computer. when I install either by itself it works OK, but only showing 496(which someone told me why, video CARD or something.) but when I install both its like slamming windows into PARK, it takes over an hour to bring up windows, and even the little musical chime as it loads is all choppy. Did I not resest some bios or something? any helpfull hints would be great, and yes I tried pulling them and reseating them after CLEANING contacts. thanksSounds like mismatched Ram. Are both Ram sticks the same Manufacturer and specs? Is your system Dual-Channel capable in which sticks are inserted into banks 0 and 2 when you have banks 0,1,2,3? If only a 2 bank system then this is not the issue. If inserted as 0 and 1 and dual-channel capable your system is RUNNING in single channel mode. What motherboard or make/model computer?I'm an old diesel mechanic, so be patient with me. I TOOK an old machine to a small shop a few years ago, he gutted it and installed a new motherboard, with a little more ram and a faster processor. I realize all that i have now is propably out of date. I purchased some ram from an old friend on line, I don't know if they match. There are only 2 slots on the board for ram Here is what it says in the properties section of my computer system microsoft windows xp home edition version 2002 service pack 2 Registered to home (then serial numbers I'm not sure I should give) computer Via Samuel 2 735MHz, 448Mb Ram I could open system properties but that's a lot of info, what exactly am I looking for to help you help me?Trying to determine: a) Type of RAM supported b) Max amount of memory supported c) max memory module size supported

7030.	Solve : Cannot upload MS Word?!?
Answer» For some reason I am unable to upload MS Word documents as an attachment. I am using MS Word 2003 with all of the Hot Fixes that are available (for Office 2003), which I wonder MIGHT be part of my problem. I have tried to upload a Word attachment using AOL and Yahoo Mail. One thing that will work is if I CHANGE the format from the default .doc to Word 97-2003 & 6.0/95 RTF *.doc. I would rather save and send in the default format though. Any suggestions? BTW, I cam upload other files w/o problems, like pictures and .exe. Dave - are these attempts with 2003 version .doc files being rejected (bounced) or ignored? I also wonder about AOL and Yahoo too - thinking maybe of how some ISP's block zip files these days. I do send occasional .doc files myself but that is thru my Earthlink and, generated from Word 2000. Can't think why the version should matter UNDULY. No idea right now as to the cause, except for the AOL/Yahoo aspect.Thank you for the quick reply. What happens is this. With AOL, the progress bar just keeps going till it REACHES aprox 85%, then stops and logs off (shuts down the AOL program). With Yahoo, the progress bar just keeps going and going and going... Have not ATTEMPTED a zip file. DavidHmmm - funny tho if 97/03 or Word 6/95 works ... but then I assume there you send with RTF extension. Right now - no idea other than an ISP issue for some wierd reason. After thought - I wonder if you sent changing extension to .txt and get recipient to change it back? If it's file code content that's being the problem then that would not work either - but might prove a point!I'm not sure I understand. What point would that prove? Let me rephrase ........ If you try and ''cheat'' - and change .doc to .txt - and ask the recipient to change it back to .doc - then we could reckon the extension itself was (maybe) raising alarm bells. If however with a false extension the file is rejected then - it'd seem that it's content rather than extension, which is being ''seen'' as ''not permissible". See what I mean? Just a matter of interest really.... trying to work out why a file is being difficult to transfer on an email.Ok. I got it now. Thank you for taking the time to explain that to me.

7032.	Solve : Windows XP Home and Pro Recovery Console Password Reminder?
Answer» On many XP installations any attempt to start the RECOVERY CONSOLE will fail because no password will be accepted. Even if a password has never been SET simply hitting Enter will not WORK. The following Regedit will stop the Recovery Console prompting for a password. Note that the Regedit must be done before access to the Recovery Console is required i.e. when your system is error free. Please take all the usual precautions when editing your registry: Start > Run > Regedit Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Setup\RecoveryConsole Set the DWORD SecurityLevel value to 1 Exit Registry and Reboot Nice one Done...and THANX a Ton !

7026.	Solve : laptop minus screen, hooking up aux screen?
Answer» I've got an old toshiba laptop RUNNING xp pro, and the screen went on it, but everything ELSE works. I've ripped the screen off ( messing around with it ), and now I THOUGHT I might set it up in the shop for INVENTORY tracking sort of thing. Problem is I don't know how to get an external screen running without a screen to set it up. It's a toshiba TE2100, its got USB, ethernet, dvd burner etc. It boots up and sits there looking stupid no problem.Not being able to see the keyboard I can only summise that: usually you connect up the external monitor, and then using the Fn key and either of the F1, F2, F3 etc. keys it will switch between laptop screen and external display. The symbol on the correct button usually looks like a monitor - one with full screen & one hollowed (or similar).Remote desktop may also be an option, but only if you enabled it prior to removing the screen.

7031.	Solve : picture into watercolor?
Answer» How do I TURN a PICTURE into watercolor-look in WORD?Do you have an EXAMPLE?

7033.	Solve : Activating windows XP question?
Answer» So I don't have a XP cd and I used my friends cd. I installed windows xp with his cd and I was never prompted for a key. Now on my laptop I have a windows key on the back. Here is my question can I change my key and register it? Will that change the WPA file? Is that even legal(using anothers cd to install xp)? thanksusually when you use Friends cd's, as soon as you download windows upgrades you will get the authenticity problems. As far as I know the only way to change the key is to install a nother version of windows. My suggestion is to use your laptops windows DISK on your other computer to make it authentic.Unless your friend had a volume license copy of XP (would have been through a business if he did - and then for business use only) then it is most definitely a taboo to use someone else's disc and your key - if it even accepts it. Usually the machine that comes with a key already stuck on, has had the OS pre-installed (and any 3rd party manufacturer applications along with it). If you were able to install XP using another persons disc you would have a 33% chance the key would be accepted - mainly because there are three versions of an OS disc. Volume license - one key covers a SET number of machines (businesses use this type of key) Retail license - a full copy bought off the shelf as a STANDALONE copy OEM license - preinstalled on a machine (which it seems is most likely what you have if the COA is already on your laptop) As long as you have an authentic certificate I don't think that the big boys will be kicking your door in, but it can cause ISSUES later on with Software Updates if the key has been registered on a different machine.

7034.	Solve : How to block some offline working??
Answer» My son has a laptop on which we limit internet time as he is somewhat ADDICTED to music & games. He has taken to loading videos fro utube then disappearing to his room with the laptop where he is able to replay the downloaded VIDEO seemingly HUNDREDS of times as LONG as he does not click any other links. Is there a technological way of preventing this that would still allow him to use the internet and view utube at other times? So he loads the video on Youtube, then disconnects but keeps watching them, right? The only way I know of to stop this is to close the browser when he is disconnected. Once he opens it again, he cannot get to the page. However, you should know there are WAYS to download youtube videos.

7040.	Solve : Problem formatting Hard Drive?
Answer» I'm working on fixing a friends computer; I came to the conclusion that the operating system was corrupt and being that he had no IMPORTANT files on the drive I decided to reinstall Windows. As I usually do I delete all partitions and create one new one (minus about 32mb). I encountered a problem when I tried to FORMAT the drive using nfts. "Windows was unable to complete the format.." I've tried several times and it never gets passed about 30%. The drive is a Seagate SATA 200GB. OS is WIndows XP Pro SP2. Computer is a Compaq. I've tried splitting the drive creating a 100GB partition and it didn't work. I've tried using 2 seperate other Windows disks. I have checked and rechecked all of the cables. One thing to NOTE is that the SATA cable on the HD end does not lock when it's inserted. It looks as if SOMEONE pulled the cable without pressing in on the end, forcing it out. Possible problem there? I'm almost to the point where I am going to replace the SATA cable and eventually the drive, but obviously I want to avoid that at all costs. Currently looking at Seagate diagnostic images online. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.I'd first replace that cable... Next thing i'd do is DLoad and run the Seagate DIAGNOSTICS on that drive to see if it has issues... Available FREE from their site.

7043.	Solve : programs that want to autoload on startup?
Answer» There are a few PROGRAMS on my computer that I dont want to automatically load on start up. I have done the msconfig THING and removed the entries for those programs but they still load on start up. One such program is hotmail messenger. How do I get it to STOP? Where else are the start up entries listed?You may find the easiest WAY is RegCure - or an oldie ...... RegCleaner. Both will allow turning off some start items at registry level - and saves you having to dig in registry directly.

7046.	Solve : My desktop won't turn on?
Answer» This has happened about 3 weeks ago. I was able to GET it to TURN on by unplugging everything on the tower. The green light was not lit. I reconnected everything & it turned on. Now, with doing that this time, I get NOTHING. No sounds from anything. My computer is a HP, about 4 years old, & I am running XP on it. Any thoughts? Is my computer dead? Is it the power supply? Any way I can get it running again.hey, so are u saying the power supply fan doesnt come on?? If so, you should change out the power supply first. Could be a bad stick of ram, MOTHERBOARD, etc.

7049.	Solve : computer crashed after installing blackberry desktop manager?
Answer» Hi, I just got a blackberry and WENT to load the software onto my computer. The sofware installed, but it would not connect with the phone. I DECIDED to restart in case that was the issue. The computer would restart, but would not go further than showing my background picture - no icons or anythign showed up. I've tried to restart in safe mode, it will LET me get to the screen where I can select it, and then a bunch of lines come across the screen and then it asks to press escape to stop loading sptd.sys and locks up there. the last line on the screen says: multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\Windows\System32\Drivers\Mup.sys I'm not sure what to do. I am on a friends computer right now. I've been meaning to backup my data for a while now and just haven't gotten to it. I really don't want to lose my data, there's too much on there. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! ThanksAt this point in time since data recovery is a priority i would hook up your DRIVE as a slave in a known working machine and back up anything you need... Once that is done Post back and we'll continue with the fixup process.
