thanks guys, That's a lot easier than what I've been trying to do. Also, just as an FYI if you find it interesting. Previously, I was using system.io.directory.getdirectoires(searchpath, searchpattern, searchoption) The searchpattern variable is the string I've been using to set which...

It's only one network PC that's reporting the problem? You also stated that you've already deleted the registry keys for that user's network printer and the spooler folder's empty as well. That normally does it for me. There's only two things left to try. The first and easiest thing would be...

Just about every time I've seen this in that past, it's been corrupt system files, but there's also a possiblity for incompatible drivers or other software, though for both of those options you should be able to get into safe mode. I like PhaseK's suggestion. I'd boot with an XP CD to run a...

First, I'll admit up front that programming is definately not one of my strong points as I am basically self taught just enough to get some tasks completed. Still, I've managed to build a small program in VB .net 2008 that'll search specified folders or server shares for specific folders, report...

If you get the chance. Check out the free online demo for VPSX print server. It's the first link I posted in my last post. I think it's exactly what you're looking for. Hope this helps Good Luck! Chris

There's some good third party applications that should be able to help. Most of them will intigrate into Active Directory or workgroups depending on your network. Google for print que management or print que monitoring. You'll find some good products...

I guess I start looking into hardware issues. The easiest thing to start with would be to disconnect any other hard drives, leaving only your primary master, and try using a known good cable, maybe the one from any of the secondary drive or CD-ROM if you have them installed. if that doesn't...

I looked up stop:0x000000ED and found several entries referring to an unmountable volume or HDD controllers. It's possible it's a hard drive or IDE controller failure. It could also be the IDE cable, or if you can get into the OS either in safe or normal mode, it would indicate a driver or...

you should be able to run eventvwr.msc from the start menu. Look through the system and application logs and see if you can find some errors. So I take it that you are unable to get into Windows in normal mode and the error occurs durring startup. I doubt the event viewer will help in this...

What operating system are you using? Can you get into the OS at all or does this happen each time you start your computer? Have you installed any new hardware, updated any software, or made any other changes recently. I did find this info from Microsoft. A "STOP 0x0000001E...

If it's a BIOS issue, then the OS shouldn't be able to see the full 2GB right? You should be able to use msinfo32 to look at the available physical memory and ensure that the OS is seeing the entire amount of RAM. It's probably some sort of fluke software problem maybe with the HAL or...

In case it helps, I had a similar issue a while back where turing off the Tx and Rx checksum on the NIC properties resolved the issue. Also, if you have the option on your driver, make sure that flow control is set to auto and see if that helps. If not then perhaps disabling flow control will...

oh and I forgot to put in the last rely that when checking task manager check the CPU usage column to see which process is pinning the processor. Then... check for page faults to see it it's an IDE controller or virtual memory problem. Hope this helps Good Luck! Chris

I like some of the info in the link that CertInProgress posted. specificaly: "Windows XP downgrades the Ultra DMA transfer mode after receiving more than six CRC errors. Whenever possible, the operating system will step down one UDMA mode at a time (from UDMA mode 4 to UDMA mode 3, and so on)...

also, running a spyware cleaner and cleanup programs couldn't hurt. try these utilities. CCleaner - cleans the file system and registry. I use it from time to time. http://www.download.com/CCleaner/3000-2144_4-10669303.html?tag=lst-0-1 Spyware cleaners Spybot - Search & Destroy 1.4...

The error message is definately refering to Synchwiz.exe. Application exception occurred: App: (pid=720) When: 28/05/2007 @ 13:29:08.867 Exception number: c0000024 you task list has ID 720 listed as synchwiz.exe 2424 slwinsso.exe 720 Synchwiz.exe...

it likely has something to do with a problem with a BHO (Browser Helper Object), active x control, or other plug in. 1st, I'd delete all temp files and cookies through the Tools - Internet Options menu. Then, flush DNS just in case. From the command prompt run "ipconfig /flushdns" Then...

I've run into this problem a few times and adding thermal grease between the CPU and heatsink has fixed it every time. You can probably find some at any computer store. I tend to use http://www.newegg.com or http://www.tigerdirect.com. For a good torrent client, try Azureus. Just download and...

whew... :) Glad to hear that worked for you. Sorry it took so long for me to get back to you. I've been slammed at work. Regaurding the windows defender problem. Have you completed all of the windows updates? Specifically, I'd like to make sure Windows Installed v3.1 is installed and all of...

I'm not entirely sure, but downloading a bios flash from the manufacturer's site might work. It's worth a shot. It could be that the BIOS was corrupted. Hope this helps Good Luck! Chris
