Must have been a one time occurrence as all seems fine now. The external SATA drive is being recognized and the RAID 1 SATA drives are functioning normally.
Win XP Pro running RAID1 with SATA drives. No problem. Have an external 1TB drive via USB no problem. Decided to change the external to SATA. When I powered up I had an indication there was a problem with the RAID configuration and it was taking forever to boot. I stopped the process and...
IE7 with XP Pro w/sp3. IE7 loads fine with home page as blank. The problem is with the first page load. Regardless of the site the first site loads very slowly. After that it runs normally. Opera and Firefox run without this problem.
I have disabled Windows Defender, AVG and still the...
I have run spyware checkers and run windows defender. It has not and did not find anything. I finally gave up and since this was on a backup machine I reformatted and did a clean install. I think the problem had to do with the MS Office XP Pro eventhough it showed up when explorer or internet...
Thanks for the information. I tried both of your suggestions. I was limited even in safe mode to delete some files from prefetch but the installer pop up continues.
Running XP Pro. All updates. When I first click on ie7 to open it as it is opening I see 2-3 times the Windows Installer window open and close. IE7 then funtions normally. This does the same thing with explorer. The event viewer shows the event viewer shows this error:

The problem is something is changing my favorites. What happens is that a favorite works at one time and then maybe the next it does not work. I will get an error: The target "" of this internet shortcut is not valid.
When I check the properties of favorite there is only a General tab and no...
Well it is fixed. Poor management on my part because I can not tell you step by step how I fixed it but here are the essentials.
No matter how many times and ways I tried to view the directory "Update" it would not let me. I finally was playing around with ownership permissions and was able...
Here is a little more information. The culprit file was hmmapi.dll. I wound up able to delete all of the files except that one. Then for some unknown reason was able to delete it. Now I just have a 0 byte Update sub folder that returns an access denied error when I try to delete it. I...
I want to uninstall IE7 from my system. Running XP Pro SP2. Reason: Have an unknown directory on my C: 43ba504480e06.... and can not delete it. That directory contains dll and mui and ie7 files that appear to also be in c:\windows\ie7.
Since I could not delete folder I tried to do normal...
Thanks for you help but here is what did work.
1. Open a command prompt window first.
2. Open taskmanager and end the explorer process. The taskbar should
vanish.
3. In the command prompt type:
rmdir /s c:\recycler
where c: is the drive and press <enter>. If it prompts you, answer yes to...
Properties for Recycle bin are set to put files in bin. Files are being deleted from c:. I have put a dummy file on desktop and deleted it and it does not show in the recycle bin. The recycle bin shows in explorer and on the desktop but again nothing in it.
I tried your fix by deleting...
XP Pro SP2 with all updates. Used to have Norton. No longer have Norton. I delete a file and it does not show in Recycle bin. I checked MS Support and found the registry entry to be as required. Probably deleted a file along the way that should not have been deleted.
I currently have a RAID 1 system running with 2 110G hard drives. I would like to expand the system's storage capabilities by changing the 110G drives to something larger. However, I do not want to have to install everything again. Is this possible by changing one drive at a time or some...
Put a new computer running Vista Home Basic on my home network. It can see the networked computers fine. The other computers running XP Pro can see the new computer. The XP boxes can not get access to the C: drive on the new Vista box but can access the public directories. I have set up for...
Thanks for the links and tips. I have solved the scheduler problem. I believe it was a corrupt permission file for the scheduler task. By deleting all of the tasks and then recreating them it appears all is well there.
I guess what I was looking in my searches was a list of the default...
In trying to solve another problem I believe I have screwed up my Security & Permissions. For one a scheduled task that ran fine daily is now not running. Secondly I have I think too many Group or User Names. I have:
Administrator [Computer Name\Administrator]
Administrators [Computer...
