- HP Printer software Fatal Error at 94%
-
Recently my HP OfficeJet L7680 froze up while scanning and wouldn't work
even after rebooting. It has worked for over a year.
I did the obvious - downloaded the latest drives from HP and got the Fatal
Error at 94% . I wrote HP and have since had TEN emails from them
suggesting all sorts of ways to fix this problem.
I turned off the firewall and antivirus, registered and unregistered DLLs,
muddled around in the registry, run the L3.bat file, run an HP cleaner and
the Microsft cleaner, removed all HP programs using control Panel,
reinstalled (Fatal error every time) about 100 times and rebooted every time
using the original CD, and the downloaded full and basic drivers.
It is supposed to be being escalated to Advanced Technical SUpport at HP but
I haven't heard back from them in a couple of days.
Using Add printer in Control Panel I was able to add the printer using the
.inf file in one of the temporary folders the installation created. But I
am unable to scan to OCR using any of the scan programs that come with
Office or Vista. Webscan using IE and the IP address also has no OCR scan.
A search on Google found many people with all kinds of HP printers are
having the exact same problem, Fatal Error at 94%, but none of them has a
solution that works.
Mine worked for over a year - now I can't reinstall it. No new hardware or
software was added recently.
Did anyone out there ever solve this problem and get the Hp Solution Center
to work again?
How?

- New IE 9 will not work in Windows XP - another fuc job by the expert
-
The newest version of Microsoft's (Nasdaq: MSFT) Internet Explorer
will feature full hardware acceleration and a new Javascript engine
that engages multiple processor cores for faster rendering, the
company has announced. The new version aso reverses the software
giant's reluctance to adapt to HTML 5.
The company released a developer preview of Internet Explorer 9 at the
MIX10 developer conference in Las Vegas on Tuesday.
Rough Draft
The preview is not a fully functioning browser, lacking crucial
tidbits such as an address bar, for instance.
It's designed to give developers a feel for the core capabilities of
what will eventually be released.
Microsoft isn't saying when it will come out. In a statement
Wednesday, the company said it expects to release new preview versions
every eight weeks until the release goes to beta, but it did not say
when that might occur.
The new version will feature full hardware acceleration of graphics
and text, support for HTML 5, CSS3 and a new Javascript engine that
takes advantage of multicore processors.
The advances are meant to reduce limitations on Web design and
development imposed by current implementations, Microsoft said.
Consequently, the new browser will not work on Windows XP.

- Can't delete file
-
I have a folder that was named something random like fsad3ld567g. I
was able to rename the folder anything I wanted to. I renamed it to
\top
The two files in it are update.exe and updatexx.dll or something
close.
When I tried to delete either one of them I get access denied.

I also ran the command line and tried to remove the directory.
Any suggestions?

- enable app setup in UAC

I am running Windows Vista home premium and cannot find secpol.msc
I am trying to get a program, ODIN, to run on my system.
ODIN tells me "Windows Vista users should enable UAC to allow for the
correct creation of the ActiveX components needed by the application, but
not run the application as 'Administrator'."
Windows help says to run secpol.msc but my system says it cannot find this
program.
Thank you for any help.

- make a menu when burning a mastered dvd
-
So I can burn a dvd to play in a dvd player, and I understand a genera
menu comes up when playing on the dvd player - but the problem I'
facing is getting the -separate files to show up in a particular order-
For example, if I have a tv show, I'd like the menu to show up as ep1
then 2, then 3, so that they would play in order.
I'm not sure if this is possible with the windows vista burning, bu
it's fairly important for me.
Please help! Thanks

- First Windows 7 PC arriving Soon and Have Questions
-
Hi, today I ordered a ZT Affinity Phenom II X4 965 3.4GHz 1GB Radeon 5450
Blu-Ray ROM Desktop w/ Windows Professional 64bit.
This will be my first Win7 PC. What should I do before using the PC
everyday?
I'm thinking drop the DVD\Blu Ray player to a very low drive letter, setup a
permanent swap file.
and I'd like to partition the 2TB HDD. Do I need third party software to
partition a Win7 HDD?
What else would you do to set up this PC?
Thanks,
Sam

- Answer to the most annoying problem of Windows 7
-
This message was posted here because:
1. I couldn't find any newsgroup on Microsoft Communities for Windows 7
(which I believe is an absolute must)
2. the program mentioned at the end would also work for Vista.
From day one of upgrading to Windows 7, I was faced with the unpleasant
reality that Win7 doesn't remember the size and position of folders. To
further
torture me, for some reason unknown to me, it began to restrict some
programs' windows--such as IE , Outlook, Chrome, and a few other--to a fixed
size and position, not allowing any change no matter how many times I
resized, repositioned and restarted them. I even went as far as deleting the
"frame" entry in the registry for some programs such as Outlook, but it just
made the window to open in a new smaller uncompromising size and position!
After a very long time spend on searching the net and reading no-solution
answers, all I was able to find a little utility called "ShellFolderFix"
which through its awkward interface, solved the problem for Windows folders,
but not the programs. I read comments saying that they had bad experience
with some paid programs (such as Windows Manager) which allowed fixing the
size and position of program windows and nobody knew of anything that
worked.
Tired of spending more hours than a fulltime job on the issue, I was about
to give up when on my very last try I stumbled upon a fantastic *little*
freeware developed by someone in Japan which not only allows for fixing the
size and position of folders as well as *program* windows, but it also has
many other features which I hadn't even heard before. Furthermore, it's only
60 kb, doesn't require
installation (just run the file), and it allows for selective fixing of the
size and position of the program Windows, and it also works on XP, Vista
and Windows 7!
Why such a long post on my little discovery? because through my many days of
searching, I came across many people with the same problem, and thought that
the least I could do is to share this wonderful solution with as many people
as
I can and save them the time and trouble of trying things that won't work.
Program's name is "Pitaschio" (no, not pistachio!)

At times, your desktop shows icons sorted alphabetically in two groups.
All users Desktop, and user Desktop.
Create a temporary desktop folder. Copy the icons from the Windows

Now delete the desktop icons.
Copy the icons from the temporary desktop folder to the Windows

- Charging an IPod with USB
-
I'm in China where their electrical supply is 220V. I am using my laptop to
charge my stepson's IPod. However, he is sometimes at his father's house
where he only has access to a desktop which is using the 220V electrical
supply. Does the desktop USB connection supply the same amount of power as
my laptop USB connection or will I toast his IPod when using the USB
connection on the desktop? In other words, do all USB connections supply the
same amount of output power, regardless of the input voltage?
Please excuse my ignorance and thank you in advance for any assistance.

- TROJ_Gen.MZ40M3 PrevX
-
I use Trend Internet Security (pre-installed) on a Dell Computer and
Malwarebyte as virus scanners.
Yesterday Trend found a virus "TROJ_Gen.MZ40M3" in File
"C:\Windows\SysWOW64\wr91562.dll". Malwarebyte did not find any infections
in this file. Trend did not take any action but merely redirected me to the
MS Windows update page. I have sent an email to Trend about 4 hours ago but
so far have only received an aknowledgement but as yet no solution.
Googling for "TROJ_Gen.MZ40M3" resulted in no hits. A scan for "wr91562.dll"
resulted in only 1 hit by for the company supplying "PrevX 3.0" They claimed
that they could remove this virus.
I have never heard of PrevX but googling resulted in a large number of hits
with some of them claiming that PrevX is a scam.
My question - does anyone know anything about this virus and/or PrevX?
Thanks in advance.

- Disk Cleanup - 3 Questions
-
(Running 2000-Pro, SP-4, IE-6, OE-6, classic mode, dial-up.)
(Running Vista Ultimate 64-bit, SP-2, IE-8, WM-6, WLM-09,
classic mode, dial-up.)
(Running XP Home Edition, version 2002, SP-3, IE-8, OE-6,

via wi-fi spots.)
Question #1: On my Vista system, under Disk Cleanup, one
has the option to delete the following, among others:
Debug Dump Files
System Error Memory Dump Files
System Error Minidump Files
Per User Archived Windows Error Rep
By default these are not checked on my system. Is there any
reason why I can't delete those files?
Question #2: Related to this question, on my Windows 2000
system, under Dick Cleanup, there is an option to:
Compress Old Files.
Any problems likely to be associated with selecting that
option?
Question #3: Finally, related to this question, on my XP
system, not only does the "Compress Old Files" option exist,
there is also an option to delete "Catalog Files For The
Content Indexer". Should I anticipate any problems if I
delete those files?

- Help undoing virus damage
-
About a week ago I had the "Vista Antivirus 2010" virus on my computer
I was able to get rid of it pretty quickly with AVG, but since then
have been having an annoying (but not debilitating) problem.
The Vista Antivirus 2010 appears on your computer pretending to be a ne
program downloaded through vista updates, and lets you know that yo
have viruses on your computer. Its main purpose is a financial scam: t
remove the viruses you need to pay for the "full version" of th
program. To stop you from being able to remove it easily, it makes it s
that whenever you open an .exe program on your computer it will ope
instead, and then determins whether the program is a threat or not. Fo
example, I was able to run Firefox, but I had to trick it to let me ru
AVG
However, now that it is gone, I am still having trouble running .ex
files. When I attempt to run one, it prompts me to select the progra
that I want to use to open the file, which is not possible since that i
the program that should open it (does that make sense?). I have had t
redo all of my shortcuts, and still need to "run as administrator" an
then give the program permission to run each time
I know that this is a long explanation. Any suggestions on how I coul
get rid of this issue and run program normally
Thanks

- Intermittant Connection to Usenet
-
I am using Vista Home. SP1 does not load and always removes itself. WAN Miniport (SSTP) is flagged
as not operating properly.
I use Newsrover as a newsreader and NewsGuy for usenet connections. Both worked perfectly for
years.
I just added a D-Link (model DIR-615) router to my sytem and everything seems to work fine, except
for one thing. I'm getting loss of connection with the NewsGuy servers. I've contacted them, but
they say everyone is running OK, and i've never had problems before. When i download files, things
are OK for a while, then connectivity drops off and eventually stops.
Since the only thing that's changed is the new D-Link router, i suspect this is the problem. I've
tried changing ports and i've checked the D-Link setup to make sure everything is as it should be. I
am using a switched cable connection (not wireless) on this computer.
Could the WAN Miniport be the issue? How do you fix this?
Any ideas? Any other fixes?
TIA!

- mstsc fails to connect on one of two laptops
-
I have to nearly identical HP laptops. Both are the same model, both are
running Vista64 Home Premium. With mstsc, I can connect to my XP Pro SP3
system with no trouble at all. But on the other one, the connection fails
with an illuminating "Cannot connect" message. No details as to why. I tried
copying the Default.rdb file from the machine that can connect to the other
one. That made no difference. I tried connecting as a different user,
creating another .rdp file, but that didn't work either.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jason

is not going bad..

- Scan disk will not run at windows startup
-
My OS is Win Vista 64 Home Premium.
After scheduling a scandisk, and rebooting, I get the following error:
Cannot open volume for direct access.
The type of the file system is NTFS.
Windows has finished checking the disk.
Scandisk never runs and computer goes directly into windows but tries to do
a scandisk at every startup and gives the same message.
Microsoft seems to have no help for this problem. I sincerely appreciate
any help.
Thanks

- How to find file causing backup failure Access Denied 0x80070005?
-
Apparently at least one "Document" file on my Vista laptop is causing File
Backup to fail "Access Denied" 0x80070005.
I read lots of google on this but most points to something like:
"This error occurs because the recovery partition is enabled for File Backup
or System Restore
and is almost full. To work around this, do not select D:\ as a backup
source. Also, go to
System Protection in Control Panel and make sure that D:\ is not enabled for
restore points."
This is on an external disk so none of that stuff would seem to apply. If I
unselect "Documents" from the stuff to be backed up, it works fine. When it
fails, some files have been backed up successfully. But there doesn't seem
to be any useful logging or error event reporting to help narrow it down
finer than this. I even tried it with UAC disabled. Still no joy.
The machine is also being backed up by WHS nightly with no apparent
problems.
Any suggestions how to narrow this down to the "Document" file(s) Vista
Backup is unhappy about??!?
Thanks in advance for any thoughts.

How can I get my Windows zip icon back? Thanks to Ramesh I can now open zip
files but thee Internet Explorer icon is being used as the zip file icon.
How can I get it back? I'm not too computer literate when it comes to

good instructions.
Can a clever person help me out please?

- Defragging
-
Hello
I sometimes run a defrag program, tho I'm not sure it helps an awful lot. I
generally use the built-in Windows utility.
There are a lot of other defraggers out there. I am not looking for
recommendations.
My question, - do all defraggers use the same 'logic' or 'policy' about how
& where files are positioned and arranged on the C drive ?
Thanks

- Where to post replies
-
When replying to a news message, is it preferred to have the reply beneath
the message being addressed or above it? I suppose there are supporters of
each, but where do the people who answer these questions prefer the reply to
be?
It would be great if the message trail were uniform.
