Is there a program that will allow me to see which files I have made a backup of and the ones I have not? I have lots of photos and videos I take with my camera and place them all in one main folder so i can get to them all easily. When it comes to backing them up I can never remember which ones...
I have recently installed windows xp pro onto a pc purchased in 2001. Xp ran fine and was set up to dual boot with windows millenium which had come with the system along with a number of pre installed software which is still needed. Everything was running fine until I installed a second hard...
I hope someone can help me out here. My dad has a computer with windows xp and so do I. I have a broadband internet connection from a usb cable modem.
We would both like to share this connection and right now wanted to do it as cheaply as possible as we intend to get a wireless connection...
My pc is slow, its a 1.5ghz pentium 4 with 384mb rdram, when I have my pc running with all the programs that I want I have about 240mb ram free yet everything feels slow. If I have 2 internet explorer pages open and I reduce one to the taskbar and then maximize it again it takes about 5 seconds...
Since last thursday I have been getting 4 emails each day that are worms. its the same subject heading each time, offering me latest network security patch, latest ms security patch, and 2 which claim to be returned messages. I have not opened any and have done a scan of my system with an up to...
sometimes when I turn my pc on it makes a lot of beeping which sounds like the noise on a supermarket checkout, it almost sounds like I am playing an old atari game or something, if I press reset on the pc the noise goes and everything starts fine. It mostly happens when I am restoring my pc...

I have 2 users on xp home (sp1). When I switch user I can go from my adminitstators account into the other limited account, however when I log off from the limited account my screen goes black and I can't do anything.
Problem solved with that registry edit, thankyou so much, I would never have thought of that in a million years, my pc is back working the way I wanted, you have saved me going through a whole load of other things, I was even planning on going back to windows 98 to see if it was a hard drive...
I have been doing little tests and stuff to try and work out what is happening, still no closer Im afraid. I have no media files in the folders which are taking so long to open, its just a couple of program installers like winamp and zone alarm and Im keeping them there until I write another...
Thanks for taking the time to reply, I was actually hopeing that there might have been a way to alter the registry or something so files are auto moved when I drag them onto another partition instead of just copied. I tried the script, its works great.
I have a few partitions on my drive, Im about to do a big cleanup and want to move some files to different partitions, right now my only option is to hold down the shift key as I move them to aviod only making a copy, or to use the move icon in the explorer toolbar which is inconvenient as I am...
Very strange problem here, appologies if I'm missing the obvious. I wrote yesterday about this problem but have found something extra out.
I was having a delay when opening some folders on my hard drive, it would take about 4 seconds to open some, a few even took about 15 seconds to open, when...
I got a new 120gb 7200rpm hard drive last week, I installed windows xp home(came with sp1) onto it and then added all my other programs such as winamp, microsoft works,zone alarm pro, spybot etc. I now have a clean system ready for use, I find though that some folders are so slow to open, I...
I partitioned my 80gb harddrive into 3 so I could organise my data a little better, I have xp on the first partition, music and videos on the second and documents and downloaded programs on the third.
Normally if I click a folder it will be highlighted in blue, fast click again (therefore a...
