    How do I set the local installations of Windows Desktop Search 4.0 to query the search index that has already been generated by the server instead of every machine having to create and maintain its own index for the hundreds of thousands of files on the shared drive?

    When running photo screen saver, the screen goes black for a few seconds when I reactivate the computer, an "auto configure" screen appears, then I find the window I was working in - say Windows Mail - has lost the default size I set it, and reverted to the the smaller size. Any help please.

    Thank you for your suggestions. I followed the suggestions and it worked. But every time I shut down/restart the desktop icons are blacked out again. Even on explorer some are blacked out. It seems like the ones I created are corrupted, like shortcuts of folders. I've changed the color depth, deleted the cache, restarted, but still, if I shut down and then start again, they icons will revert back to black. Any suggestions?

    I have an 8 button mouse. I like to use button 3 for 'double clicking'. For some reason unknown to me this button no longer performs this function when I start W XP. I then go to Start > Control Panel > Mouse > Buttons > Button 3 Double Click > Modify > OK > Apply > OK. After doing the previous I get a message " to protect your computer Windows has closed this program, Name: Run a DLL as an App". I close this message and get a second message asking if I want to send an error report to MS. I close this message and my mouse button 3 is now able to do double - clicking. This will now work fine untin I close down W XP and then restart it. A…
