My problem is SOLVED. I did a repair install with the OEM disk and it accepted the new key and activated without any problems. All programs and data were saved.
I have a friend that has been having troubles getting updates. After questioning, I come to find out that he has a pirated copy of XP pro installed. I told him get an OEM copy from newegg.com and he wants me to install it for him. He says it's running fine now and doesn't want to have to...
I've got a new build running XP, 512 ram, Athlon 2700 on a MSI K7N2GM2-LSR MB. I've tried 3 different DVD/CD drives and all will operate perfectly well with boot discs but once XP loads I get the message that "CD may be corruped or unable to read format" and Explorer sometimes locks up. Could it...
I use 2 mobile racks with several extra trays to switch HDD's and OS's at will. By using this system it's pretty much impossible to mess the other OS up.
I had the same setup as you and got tired of Norton using so much resources. I'm now running AVG free version and notice my system running faster. AVG also has almost daily updates to it's virus database whereas with Norton I had to wait until Wednesday of each week. Kaspersky is supposed to...
Problem solved (I hope). Took MB out of case 3 or 4 times rechecking everything I could think of. Finally decided to take MB up to my friend who runs computer repair shop. After swallowing my pride I tell him what it's doing. He hooks it up to a new power supply on the bench and it posts...
First time builder here with big problems. After I assembled everything and double checked all connections and jumper settings, I flip the power switch at the power supply which causes the little green light to glow on the MB, then I push the power button and all fans spin for about 1 second...

I'm using Outlook 2002 with Word as my e-mail editor in WinXP Pro. I often send e-mails that I need a read receipt. I know how to turn this option on and off but don't need or want to have it turned on all the time. Is there an EASY way for me to request a read receipt on specific messages only...
I use Word 2002 as my text editor for composing e-mails to send with Outlook 2002. I often use text boxes and clipart in these messages. When they are received by the recipient, the text box may be in one place and the text that should be in it in another. How can I prevent (protect) the...
Roaders,
I've found the best solution for defraging to be "Diskeeper" from Executive Software. You can schedule any drive for any time or do like I do and have it run continually in the background. It's very inexpensive too!

linney,
Thank you for pointing me to this thread: www.aumha.org/a/shtdwnxp.htm I usually let my machine run all the time, hense, I didn't realize I had this problem until the other day. As it turns out the problem was because of my "Lexar Card Reader" and the sausb.sys file. Problem...
While on a web page if I click a button to send an e-mail I'm greeted with the message: "Microsoft Wordmail could not be started. Close any open dialog boxes in Word and try again." This also happens when I try to send an e-mail from within my accounting program to a customer. When I...

1. How do I get rid of W2K?
2. Since...
