Following install of latest Nvidia graphic drivers, loaded Bioshock. 5seconds into game all froze. Rebooted computer but all I got was "\windows\system32\config\system file missing. Tried to use recovery console (XP Home edition) but I end up with Blue screen which tells me BAD_POOL_CALLER. I can't get into safe mode or ANY mode. My System is running dual Nvidia 7600gt cards for 18 months without a hitch until now. PLEASE HELP

I do not get the "Run" option when I download Zip files. (Speaking specifically to addons for World of Warcraft) The download box comes up with: Save this file now Open this file with msn Download this file later Using the Save option will let me download the file, but I'm left unable to extract the files. How do I fix this problem?

Using the wizard to scheduling a Microsoft Backup to run later prompts for credentials. If you enter in a space bar, or any password that ends in a space bar, a dialog box will appear with the title called "Scheduling" and the message "The password entries do not match." Entering in the same password without a space bar at the end will work. Using Control Panel, Scheduling then allows you to edit the scheduled task with the correct password ending in a space. -Chad

Our ISA server has been crashing. The event logs indicate some sort of connectivity issue. I am told ISA will do this if it loses connectivity but that sounds pretty extreme for simply losing a connection. Can anyone confirm if ISA server 2000 on Server 2000 will crash just because it loses its LAN connection? Thanks.

Hello, While going thru ASR it reads info from the floppy disk and starts partitioning the hard drive, then formats it and here we have an issue - 80GB array format process in normal mode takes about 30minutes. I'm scared - how much it'll take for the 1,2TB array?! Does anyone know is it any way to force quick format of the hard drive in the first phase of ASR process which is in the "blue screen"?

I am not sure this is software or hardware problem but happens to when booting into XP and VISTA. Here's my situation: I got harddisk installed XP SP2. Also another harddisk installed VISTA Ultimate. Both harddisk are in internal mobile rack. So at ONE time I plug in XP harddisk to boot into XP, pull out the XP HD and insert VISTA HD to boot into VISTA. Besides, I also got 2 HD internally. All HD are SATA. The problem occurred recently: sometimes when I boot into XP but failed, just stay on the progress bar forever, sometimes can boot into XP but hang during working. It also happens similar to VISTA. I tried both to boot into safe mode, sometimes wo…

We have finally scored a Thai keyboard, and need to set up (perhaps Messenger?) so my wife can talk to her family in Bangkok. Any suggestions from anyone who currently does this? In my old Win98se I used a small program called "ThaiKbrd.exe" IIRC. I am new to XP and would welcome any detailed explanation on a suitable set up Thanks Rodney

I have already downloaded the latest Java program. The error message pops up in pogo that says cannot connect to the server: The following error has occurred: Unable to Connect to Server Explanation: In order to play, the Java applet must open a network connection to our servers.
