8911.	Solve : Computer cannot get pass the Windows screen?
Answer» Hi, I'm having trouble with my computer. I have an Acer Travelmate 4500 and I've had it for 4 years now and I have never had problems with it until now. I was watching a youtube video and it finished and I went to load another window and I suddenly got a blue SCREEN asking me to make sure things were installed correctly. It told me I needed to restart my computer, so I restarted my computer. Upon the restart of my computer, it began to make a funny noise it has never done before. It was a little clicking noise that seemed to be coming from the left speaker. The acer window popped up then the screen that I get when I start my computer after I have put it on standby showed up and it was stuck there for a while. Finally, after it made it through that screen, it went to the Windows loading screen and then this blue screen popped up, saying something which I can never read because it GOES away just like that and restarts my computer. Now, I've restarted it and it just keeps doing this. I called my father and he said I needed to start in Safemode. Now, once it starts up I hit f8 as quick as I can and it never registers that I'm hitting f8. F8 doesn't work for some reason. My dad asked if I had my Windows XP disk and I told him not with me and even if I did, my dvd drive stopped working in September. I was wondering if anyone knew why my computer has been doing this? My dad said he thinks my memory might have went bad, but I'm not sure (Since he said he has always been able to get into f8 unless the memory was shot). I cannot get my dad to LOOK at my computer due to the fact that I am in another state for the summer. Does anyone have any insight? Thank you so much!Are you tapping F8 repeatedly right after powering up ? ? This is how it needs to be done. Once in safemode go to Control Panel/Advanced/ Startup and Recovery and uncheck "auto restart on errors". Re-boot Now when you get a blue screen it will not restart...write down the entire error message and post it here...I do hit it repeatedly, but it still doesn't work. Right as I hit the power button I start hitting F8 as quickly as I can but it doesn't work. It goes right back to that screen that I get when I am powering up after it's been on standby. For what it's worth: Acer TravelMate 4500 User Manual English Seems like F8 key should allow access to Safe Mode (thru Windows Advanced Options Menu). So... What works? Can you use the F2 key during Power-On Self Test (POST) to enter CMOS SETUP utility (for system BIOS)? Tap F2 key during power startup.Yes, F2 works fine and I can get into that screen just not when I PUSH F8.I tried to start my computer again and this time it got stuck on the Acer screen then I held down my start button and a black screen popped up and told me something about my Operating System failing or not there or something...

8912.	Solve : Windows Medial File?
Answer» Whenever I right-click on a .wmv file I get a flicker of a momentary black screen and after a second or less it goes back to the PROPER screen. I am using Windows XP Home Version 2002, Service Pack 3. (come to think of it, this seemed to start after I downloaded and INSTALLED Service Pack 3). I am running an Intel Celeron 335 CPU 2.80 GHZ 512 MB Ram Interesting issue that I couldn't seem to find any definite answer to. Have you tried updating the video drivers in your computer? What version media player? Does it happen only with .wmv files? How long have you had this PROBLEM?

8913.	Solve : NTLDR error on Computers on a Domain within a Corporate Network?
Answer» Hello I wonder if anybody can help. We have a corporate network running 4 domains. Computers on one of these domains keep switching themselves off mid-use and when rebooted come up with the NTLDR missing error. When the ntldr and ntdetect files are reinstalled from the source cd's the computers work again for up to a month, before being struck down again!! we use CA eTrust which is at the latest version and has the latest file definitions and have downloaded the free trial of kaspersky v7.0.1.325, both of which find nothing on the PC's. The server they connect to is up to date and has had a full system scan, again which has found nothing. Machines are a mixture of Win2k and WinXP, with Office2k or 2k3 installed. There is no other software installed. I have checked RECENTLY accessed files in Word, Excel etc. to see if a certain file is the root cause but there is no pattern. This is the 3rd time this has happened in 3 months and is starting to cause major issues, so any assistance would be grateful Is this a stand alone domain or is it a child domain? Does this domain have its own DNS server? Do you use DHCP in this domain? How many machines are there in the domain with this problem? Do you know if the SHUT down happens on or around the same day for the last 3 months? hi, it is a child domain. machines on the root domain or other 3 child domains are unaffected. The domain does have its own DNS server and DHCP is used in this domain. The domain in question has approx 200 machines spread over 3 buildings. However the error only occurs in one of the buildings. We have done a full system scan on the machines, file server and domain controller and nothing has been found!!! The shutdown has happened on Tues 8th April, Wed 7th May and Mon 16th Junethis happen at night? Or during the day? Also do you run any jobs across the building's machines...ie. virus SWEEP...updates...etc. How are the machines connected...cisco switch? One more thing, are the users admins on the local workstation? machines are SWITCHED off at night, and when turned on in the morning we have had 16 occurrances of this issue. However, we have also had 1 occurrrance of this issue during the day whilst an end user was in the middle of composing an email. I have just taken over the management of the IT Helpdesk here, and it would appear that the W-SUS server has been taken down in the last couple of months so no updates are being deployed. It would also appear that users are not only local admins on the machines but also that a very unsecure local admin username and password is in effect!! (previous mis-management!). The machines are connected via cisco switches on site.I would start by first looking at the servers for a scheduled job or any batch programs that can be made to shut the machines down. I would setup a group policy to change the local admin account name and password. I would suggest getting the WSUS server up and running. Start to spot check machines for a scheduled task that may have already been setup from a power user who maybe friends with the old admin. Setup a group policy to audit the security on the workstations for things like logins and use of admin rights. Make sure your DNS and DHCP servers are not on the same machine. Start to look up stream to your root domain and see what they are forcing to your child domain. Something maybe set wrong or they maybe friends with the old admin and messing with you. As far as protecting the machines change the local security policy to allow admins only to access them remotely. Force a password change to all users. This will clear out anyone who maybe running a job under someone else's account. Check the servers services and see if you have any old user accounts running the service as them. In general it sounds to me that you have someone who is making your life as the new admin crappy. I would go though everything and clean up as much of things as fast as you can to help prevent the next black out and run the audit logs on all the machines to track and maybe catch who is doing this... Take nothing for granted and check with the building people to rule out a power outage. Going forward I would take a few machines, if you have the hardware, and image them. Than the next time, if it happens again, you can swap out the machine and get the user running. This will look a lot better for you than having someone sitting around until you fix the machine.

8914.	Solve : Lost files on xp. Help!?
Answer» Good day to all. I have a custom built p.c., running Windows XP,2 GB RAM. I had stored in my My Documents folder, lots of files,information in My Picutres, My Music, My Recieved Files etc. Each folder was filled with all my respective files in them. Apart from that, I have MS Office, Windows live messenger downloaded, etc. I have recently connected a wireless router,Linksys, and it is password protected. I left home yesterday with the p.c. off, came back home to find Windows XP on, but all my documents missing, all my pictures,music,recieved files gone. Windows Live messenger was also gone. When i clicked on Internet explorer, it gave me the start up page, like if i was using it for the first time. However some programs were still there, like Office. Q1 - What could cause all the files to just disappear? Q2- How, if possible, can I RECOVER them? Click the start menu, and check to see that you are logged into the proper account.humar is pointing you to right directions......usually when a new user account is created, IE will FORCE you to select few settings. I don't think you have lost anything, you just have to look at the proper location on your computer OR login to your original account. you can find all the user account file in the following path: C:\Documents and Settings\youraccount\My Documents Hope this helps CheersHey Humar and Rookie, Thanks for the reply. But the thing is that, i am the only user, single user, so i just use XP as is, I don't have a username and password to log into, when XP is BOOTED up. IE and WMP when clicked on were like if i was using it for the first time. But the funny thing is that some additional programmes that were loaded were still there, eg Snagit,Regcure, Norton IS etc. But then some were not there at all, eg Windows live Messenger, and my printer driver. And then, all files from My Pictures,My Music, My Documents have disappeared, or have been wiped. What else could be a cause/reason for this to occur just so? Could some sort of a virus do this ? And how else can i recover anything, if possible ? Would appreciate any responses/any ideas/suggestions Thanks guys I know you said you are the only user but you could maybe be logged on as a guest. When you click on start does it have your name at the top of the menu? Also double check to see if there are any other users by going to Start > Control Panel > User Accounts. Also, try searching for one of the files that you can't find. Just think of a filename or song that you know you had on there and type it into the search window (Start > Search > All Files and Folders). You might have ALREADY done this but this is all I can think of for now. Good luck.

8917.	Solve : Mouse settings revert when I reboot?
Answer» I have been using a Logitech "Comfort laser" wireless keyboard and mouse for years. Recently the mouse has been acting up, so I purchased a Logitech M505 wireless mouse (original replacement parts are NOT available from Logitech!) in case it failed completely. Yesterday that happenned. After I installed the new mouse receiver (USB, not PS2 like the original) I DISCOVERED that everytime I reboot the "swap buttons" feature (I nust use my left hand as my right hand no longer works) has reset. How do I get the mouse buttons to be properly left-hand oriented when I turn on my computer? I do click "APPLY" after setting the mouse up. I have tried both the windows mouse setup and Logitech's mouseware/Setpoint setups. I found I actually need both because I also usr a Remote Wonder 2 from ATI and I need it's mouse click buttons to remain reversed as well. Any thought would be appreciated, Eric T. Current OS running? Download Mike Lin's Startup CPL. Click on Standalone EXE Version(34 kb). After downloading(folder or desktop), extract the file and open(run) the program. Look for any "logitech files only" and uncheck. Click Apply then Exit. If it did'nt work, uninstall and install the driver or update latest driver for mouse(if any).http://www.mlin.net/StartupCPL.shtml forgot I'm running Windows X p Home Edition. I use msconfig to control what loads on startup. Logitech's Mouseware and Setpoint both run on startup. Hmmmm It MIGHT be causing this due to SWITCHES(USB,PS2). You may want to look on your device manager on your USB Controllers first, click on update(expand, right-click) or reinstalling(reboot). Or toggle under start-up LOADING for both drivers(mouse and keyboard) by unchecking one or both then reboot. Use Start-up CPL first as suggested. If everything is still not working try, this tweak fix #30 --> http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm *Read the instruction on how to use VBS files. I FIXED IT!!! ;-) I remembered what I learned when running Windows 98 SE. You do NOT need all the crud that loads at startup. So I used msconfig and unclicked everything except what I actually use in the notification area. Such as ATIRW2, anydvd, setpoint, ETC. wHEN i REBOOTED TO LET THE CHANGES TAKE EFFECT MY MOUSE REMAINED LEFT-HANDED. tHANKS FOR TRYING, eRIC t.

8928.	Solve : CACLS Options, /T /E /G versus /T /E /P ??
Answer» Which is best, /G or /P, or does it not matter ? My preference is "/E /P" which results in BUILTIN\USERS:(OI)(CI)F BUILTIN\Administrators:F BUILTIN\Administrators:(OI)(CI)(IO)F NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:F NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(OI)(CI)(IO)F NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users:C NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users:(OI)(CI)(IO)C How is "single barrel-led" BUILTIN\Users: different from "double barrel-led" :- BUILTIN\Administrators: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM: NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users: What does /T do ? CACLS /? says /T applies to "all sub-directories", but how does that differ from CI - Container Inherit. plus OI - Object Inherit. I do not fully understand BUILTIN\Users:(OI)(CI)F, but I am overwhelmed by "/E /G" which gives BUILTIN\Users:(OI)(CI)(IO)(special access:) STANDARD_RIGHTS_ALL DELETE READ_CONTROL WRITE_DAC WRITE_OWNER SYNCHRONIZE STANDARD_RIGHTS_REQUIRED GENERIC_READ GENERIC_EXECUTE FILE_GENERIC_READ FILE_GENERIC_WRITE FILE_GENERIC_EXECUTE FILE_READ_DATA FILE_WRITE_DATA FILE_APPEND_DATA FILE_READ_EA FILE_WRITE_EA FILE_EXECUTE FILE_DELETE_CHILD FILE_READ_ATTRIBUTES FILE_WRITE_ATTRIBUTES A standard "Guest" account/profile can be logged into without a password My daughter has a normal User account with a password but without Admin authority. Does CACLS consider them both equally "BUILTIN\Users:" ? I have Admin authority (and a password) Am I a "BUILTIN\Administrators:" ? How do I become a "NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users:" ? Do I need to start in SAFE mode and log into my normal account ALAN ? Or do I log into the special Administrator account via SAFE mode ? I propose USING CACLS "H:\Utils" /T /E /P Users:F This I EXPECT to give full access for Guests etc. QUESTIONS :- If a new application is downloaded and held in a new folder under "H:\Utils\", Will that inherit full access from the "H:\Utils" parent ? If an existing application elsewhere in H:\ has normal NTFS restrictions, will it retain those restrictions if I move it under "H:\Utils\", Or will it now inherit full access from the "H:\Utils" parent ? Regards Alan Bump

8943.	Solve : MSN question?
Answer» Hello I have an old version of MSN (4.7) which works OK, but wanted to download a NEWER version. I am using XP home, but I get 'installer file' problems when I try to install it. What might be the cause of that, please? Thanks. High1What does the error say? Hello Spoiler Thanks for your post. If I try to download MSN 2011 from the explore.live site I am asked to save/run wlsetup-web.exe. I click to save it to my C drive, and then run, but then it says C:\wlset-web.exe is not a valid Win32 application. I then try to insall 2010 (messenger.exe) from a third party site, and I get the FOLLOWING: Installer integrity check has failed. Common causes include INCOMPLETE download and damaged media. If I then try for MSN 2009 from the windows live site that asks me to save the wlsetup-web.exe, and the error I get then says: IE cannot download wlsetup-web.exe from wl.dlservice.microsoft.com. The connection with the server was reset.. I am not sure how accurate those error messages are. Thanks High1I get the same problem and have not found a solution yet. Hope to hear of one soon.Messenger 2011 requires Windows 7 or Windows Vista. Oh, right, thanks for that Rustys. Still, I should be able to use a version later than 4! Thanks. High1You are welcome Yes you may the LINK is included is http://explore.live.com/windows-live-Messenger-XPHello Rustys, Thanks for the link. That refers to this file (the one I mentioned above): wlsetup-web.exe. I cannot 'run' that file because I get a MESSAGE saying: Coouldn't install programs. Use Windows Update to download the latest version of Windows Installer, and try again. The Microsoft site tells me - looks like this is where the problem might be - that 'the following updates were not installed: Microsoft Windows Installer 3.1; and Update for Windows XP (KB898461). So, basically that will be why I can't update Messenger. I might take a look at that KB article Thanks again. High1 Yes, looks like I have Messenger 2009! Many thanks. The problems was I didn't have those two updates (although Windows Update is set to automatic). If you don't have those, you need to look for them on the MS site (not the easiest thing), but at least it's resolved now. Many thanks! high1

8944.	Solve : Skippy/Choppy audio and video playback?
Answer» You can disable all non-MS items. I don't see anything mouse/keyboard related. However, my BED time is coming, so I'll check on you TOMORROW K i did all that stuff in msconfig, still got the same problem :-(Go to the start menu and click "Run..." Type in "dxdiag" and press enter. Click the "Sound" tab. Under "DirectX Features", there should be a slider BAR. If the slider bar is on any other setting other than full acceleration (No acceleration, basic acceleration, standard acceleration), then move it to full (all the way to the right). If it's already at full and you are still having this issue, move it one notch to the left (standard acceleration). See if any of that helps.Also, undo all changes, you made in "msconfig". That was for TESTING purposes only.i also noticed that the cpu usage spikes very high when the choppiness occursYAY!!! It's fixed! Turns out it was the wireless internet driver, so I just disabled it and everything's working fine now. Big sigh of relief lol! Thanks so much for ur help :-)Good news

8946.	Solve : can't finish loading window xp.?
Answer» Hi guys Thanks to the adm Am trying to load window xp into my computer,its a p4,Ram 1gb,cpu 1.7,and a desktop. the cd runs until the formatting stage and it hands there,I've tried different h/disk but the STORY is the same. I have 3 (40gbs) but there is no progress. If you can help me thanks in advance.Are you using an original, retail XP CD? If so, TELL us the exact steps you are taking to install and what was on the system prior to this installation.Have you confirmed that the cables are connected to the HDD and controller securely? Check to make sure the jumpers on the drive are set properly (Slave/Cable Select/Master). Replace the HDD cable with a different one, put one of the drives into another system see if it works there (cannot see why 3 would go at the same time). Do not laugh WATCHED some one forget to plug the power to a drive and then wonder why it no longer worked. Cheic the disk make sure it is not scratched so bad the drive cannot read it or the CD drive could be going or need to be cleaned.Try deleting the old partition, then create a new one and FORMAT. Hi, Which version of XP you are loading. Ignore the above post - we already know.

8948.	Solve : Installing OS in a mini laptop not having DVD / CD RW preinstalled in it .?
Answer» I have a COMPAQ MINI LAPTOP 110C-1100DX Product No : VM146UA#ABA ; I have been using it since DEC 2009 ; of late it has started showing BLUE SCREEN ERROR , and it immediately shuts down; and soon restarts automatically . This cycle goes on repeating almost every 5 to 10 MINUTES. Yesterday it was checked at an Authorised Service Centre. SELF TEST for RAM , and HARD DISC was done on the laptop. Results of both the tests are good -- there is no "Fault" in these two HARDWARES ; I have now been advised to reload an OS afresh. Being a Mini Laptop, it does not have inbuilt DVD / CD RW . However, my Desk Top does have a finely working DVD RW , and I have a 4GB PenDrive and also an Original WINDOWS xp home EDITION . With the help of these, can I install the OS afresh in my Laptop ? Will some MEMBER guide me ? Thanks for the help. --- Sincerely, Dr. R. V. JOSHI. Double Post. Topic Closed.

8949.	Solve : My computer does not open a new window when I click on a link.?
Answer» Can anyone suggest what might be wrong with my Dell Dimension 5100? I am with Windows XP Home Edition.Recently I have been unable to OPEN links sent to me in emails.I USED to have no trouble with this- it has been just recently. I am not very well "clued up "with computers,and this is why I am seeking help. I would appreciate any advice offered.use the html and url fixes: http://www.dougknox.com/xp/file_assoc.htmThanks Allan, Sorry to appear IGNORANT, but could you explain what I should do once I have opened the link you sent me( I CAN open this one)?Which of the list of links do i then click on?Appreciate your help.les.Download the two fixes and run them.HI, 1. Open IE8 with protected mode on 2. change to protected mode off and do not restart the browser 3. click a link that should open a NEW window, it works! Thanks Andrekakkar, Your reply stumped me a bit-sorry,but I'm not very computer literate. IE8 means Internet Explorer 8,yes?I have dowmloaded that, but still don't know how to get protected mode, and turn it on or off.Very sorry for this,but could you talk me through this next step? many thanks, Les.Don't worry about it. His SUGGESTION will not help. Did you run the registry fixes?Hi Allan, I clicked on each of the fixes(html& url),and each time I then clicked open this file,then for an instant another window opens and a green bar rapidly moves across right to left,then another larger window opens headed "html association-fix" within which there is an icon labelled "html association-fix".I click on this icon and a window opens headed File Download Security Warning.I click in the box "Run" and another long narrow(horizontal) window opens headed Registry Editor containing a message"are you sure you want to add the information (many digits and symbols).I click in the box "yes" and a similar box appears with the message "the information in c/document(many digits and symbols) has been successfully entered into the registry.Finish. But unfortunately nothing has been achieved.Sorry for the long explanation- I wanted to tell you exactly what I did in case you could see what I did wrong. Leslie.Okay. You did it the long way around but regardless, it sounds as though the registry changes were made successfully. Is IE your default browser? And which email client do you use?Yes,I downloaded Internet Explorer 8 last night. My email server is Outlook express.But this happened before you installed IE8, correct? If so, follow the steps in this link: http://www.the-pc-guru.com/Hyperlinks_dont_work_in_ema.php Yes,yours was the first reply,so i first tried your links, then when that didn't work tried Andre's solution,and downloaded Windows8.I'll try that new link you've just given me now.Thanks.Problem solved-Thanks Allan.Glad to hear it. You're welcome.

8950.	Solve : Screen brightness delay on wakeup?
Answer» My screen brightness remains very dimm for about 15MINS after wakeup. Where can I change the setting to 100$ brightness after wake up. Its driving me crazy. ThanksThere are buttons on the front or bottom front of the monitor, if its a desktop screen that is. If its a laptop look at the keyboard for the contrast up button and hold the FN key and press the contrast up key as well.What is the system you are using; if its a laptop and your on battery power it can dim the display for that. You could try looking under the power settings on the COMPUTER.Hi, I'm using a desktop PC, Windows 7. Have tried the contrast buttons on the screen and have not found any relevant setting in the power settings on the computer to fix this (unless I am missing something). Does it have anything to do with the S3/S4 Power on by Ps/2 KB and mouse setting in BIOS? It takes about 15 - 20min after waking up the pc to get the brightness up to normal, when first woken up the screen is very dim, so not sure if it is a power saving setting or other. Thanks
