About a week ago the buttons for open applications & documents disappeared
from my taskbar. Now I can only switch between apps by using the task manager.
I performed a system restore and the buttons reappeared. But soon
disappeared again (soon after I re-downloaded the latest ...

All of a sudden, I am having problems using Windows Explorer.  When I click
on the "File" or "Edit" tabs, or right-click on a folder or file, I get an
error message.  The title box says simply "Error", and the text in the box
says "Registry Access Denied".  The computer is not ...

My task manager (ctrl, alt, del) comes up now with no  X  to close it.  Can
that be fixed?  I can't even right click on the icon on the botton of screen
to close it.  right now I have 3 open and can't close any of them.

XP is getting a little slow and cranky after 3 years so I want to
reinstall it.  I have 2 hard drives, C: and F: with XP installed on C:
I have cleaned out F: and formatted it.  What I think I would like to do
is make a new install of XP on F:  I have my original XP CD and a

For the last two days I have been getting a 'popup' that warns "Visual C++
Runtime library has requested to terminate the application in an unusual
manner. (More than one app and more than one occasion. When I click on the
O.K. it does in fact shut down the open app. Can anyone ...

I am having a problem cleaning up files on my C drive.   When I click on
"delete temp internet files" there is a lock in front of it.  When I view the
files, it states "this page has unspecified potential security flaw.  Would

MVP Mike Maltby once stated that the MS defrag and "other" utilities like
Diskkeeper Lite that I've used behave differently and probably one or the
other should be chosen versus a mix. With a new computer and new to XP (from
Me) I wonder what the latest thoughts are on what is ...

Occasionally, perhaps once every day or 2, my computer slows to a crawl. Upon
viewing the process list using Process Explorer, I see that wscntfy.exe,
running under an instance of svchost, is using 90+% of the CPU. This goes
away after a few minutes, but is very annoying.

I am running Win. xp. I recently deleted the partition 'D' that was used for
restoral files, after making a backup cd. Now that memory shows as
unallocated memory in Memory Management. How can I reallocate that 6.81gb to
the main drive? Thanks Much. (My C drive is NTFS)

I have a 20gig hard  drive and it is full. My computer OS is XP pro.
My computer worked fine for the longest time with games and all but the
hard drive slowly filled up.  So I removed all of the games and any
files that I don't use. And that freed up some space but not much. But

That's the only conclusion that I can reach at this point. After many
inquiries made by me, the manufacturer of my computer (Sonica Audio Labs) and
several unanswered posts to MS web forums, I can only conclude that there is
no way to make Windows XP Pro run on a machine with an ...

Windows Xp  SP2.  I have a new icon in my clock tool bar area.  It looks like
the shield for the microsoft security utility but it does not have a logo
inside the shield and the language is misspelled and with poor grammar.  I
know it is not a part of the security utility.  When ...

I need a piece of software or a solution to monitor a XP workstastion so if
it crashed and is shut down the software will email a message to me. I know
of some packages out there but I can't spend thousands of dollors for it.  If
you are familiar with nagios for linux, it does ...
