Thanks in advance for any suggestions

In the Configuration Panel (how good is that?), there is an
icon called "Digital Camera Settings ", which appeared (I

I did a "Repair" to my win xp and now its working fine and I can boot up. The
only irritant is that whenever I boot up I get this message ' Windows Script

Just yesterday I decided to change the wallpaper on my desktop and noticed
that the list of available jpegs shown in "Desktop Display Properties"
included not only images from "C:\WINDOWS\Web\Wallpaper", but also ALL the
jpegs in "My Pictures" folder... (I don't want this).

I have used the built-in Restore partition to restore the operating system
on a Dell laptop to the way it came from the factory.  Everything went fine
until the setup (time zone, internet connection, users) and then after I put

I think this started with the SP3 upgrade, which I have reversed (no shows
XP, sp2).

After a blue screen the computer restarted and all my documents and the
documents and settings desappeared. Anyone could help me. I think the
computer created several files like etuser.t??
I made a system recovery but didn't work... Please help me

    Not long ago, I purchased a WinXP home edition laptop from Dell.
    In the past, when my Windows 98se computer didn't act "normal",
I usually "fixed" the problem with this command in real Dos mode,
"SCANREG /RESTORE",   and I would select a previous date registry.

the Xp installation disc. I used the (R) repair, ...
