Found the reg key sin in Current_User, but not on Local_Machine. They were all 0, went and deleted anyway, rebooted same problem. Updated with newest ATi driver and software. I can at least access resolution controls from there. Just can't get to anything else.
Copied the text saves as 1.txt, renamed as WindowsShell.Manifest. Copied in C:Windows, did not ask to copy over anything else. Rebooted and tried to view display properties.
Went to that link, installed active X and page closed by itself. Now when I go back to the link it closes as soon as the...
XP, SP2 machine. Right click on desktop-->propeties, nothing happens, thinks for a few seconds and then nothing. Go to Control Panel-->Display, does the same thing. Anyone know how to fix?
Thank You
Trying to run roaming profiles off of a thumb drive. The issue I have is that the drive maps differently on different computers. I tried changing it to F once the user logged in, but seems that setting does not take affect until after the user logs in. However I need it to map that drive prior...
First link is nice, but deals with the logon screen, which I already know and use.
The problem is when I use active desktop it does not keep the picture as nice compared to just setting a picture as your background. All the icons show up with different color blocks under the descpritions. I...
OK first question why does an active desktop bakground look different than your standard bakground picture...Or even better why is there a difference.
Only reason I am asking is because I need to change the background on abot 50 XP machines. I would use GP, but all I find is active desktop...
I have a real odd question. I habe 4 new laptops, imaged with ghost that for some reason think that they are always plugged into ac power, even when unplugged and running on batteries only. When you look at power managment there appears to be no battery options. Other than rebuilding image...
Nothing starts up, no taskbar, no start menu, no task manager. How could I access a recovery access point or the event log? I have tried in regualr and safe mode and have had no access to anything thing. I was hoping to use the recovery console to fix the service.exe. Think about all the...
I have a XP home machine that will put but takes about an hour to startup, then once it foes there are only a few icons on the creen, no access to task manager, start menu or anything else. I get a message saying that services.exe failed to load, which explains a lot. Problem is I do not know...
On a side note, the only reason we realized there was a problem is because of WSUS. We started testing and it was the only machine that kept erroring out. Once I connected in I realized I could not even install manually any updates.
This PC really does not get used, its a way for our techs to remote in localy so that we can work on local machines with tools from a local machine. i does not get used for accessing email or surfing the web. This is a corporate environment and we don't have problems with people hacking in.

Funny thing...There are no restore points, actually there is one, I was using SP2 install to see if it would repair any issues about an hour ago, other than that restore point there is nothing else there.
Event log, I have a lot of event:1090, usource:serenv
Windows couldn't log the RSoP...
I have looked, this machine is only used with the IT dept, on a very seldom basis. We use symantec v10 and enterprise version of spysweeper. and honestly this machine is not used at all to access any email.
As far as the groups, I looked at severeal other machines, and none of my regular XP Pro...
Not sure what happened, but I am having several probles with an XP machine. I can not install any windows updates, either by automatic, going to their site or downloading individual updates and running from the desktop. I get the same error code 0x80080008. Also when I try and go to a network...
Is there anyway to turn of the firewall after xp2 with a regkey or through the cmd console. I need to turn it off remotley but can not connect to the machine over the network, however I do have access to its regisry.
Thanks in advanced
