Hi folks, Each week I empty the list of My Recent Documents (just to keep things clear and organised) but then I find that thereafter whenever I open a document (such as a Word document, image file etc.) it doesn't appear on the My Recent Documents list - as if I didn't even open it - it just says it's empty. I've found a workaround, and that is to go to C:\Documents and Settings\JohnDoe\Recent, go to Properties, Security tab, and manually add my username to the permissions with Full Control, but the next week when I empty the list I have to do it again. Does anyone know of any way to 'fix it' so that I don't have to keep following that process every time I …

I have loaded Vista on my Dell laptop and all works fine except the bubbles screensaver. Instead of the bubbles floating over the desktop it changes to a white background with the bubbles floating around. Is there some way I can get the desktop to show in the screensaver? Any help appreciated. -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com

I'm new to WIN.VISTA. I was setting up auto back-up to a DVD-R disk. I accidentally ran a back-up to my D: drive (7GB) on my system and it filled up the D: with a back-up. I want to remove the back-up from the shadow drive but it says if I delete information from the shadow drive I may not be able to restore my systems information if I later need to do a recovery action. My question, Is it okay to delete the back-up files and will my previous show files remain in tact.

Hi I have IIS setup on my Windows XP (SP2) machine. I am running SQL Server 2000 MSDE. I have, as far as i am aware, my computer setup with the date system for the UK. If i browse the data in the SQL database then it appears in the correct UK format, but as soon as this is displayed in a web browser it turns into american format, which is undesirable. I am at a loss as to how to fix this! I have had this problem before but cant remember how i remedied it! Any help will be extremely grateful!! Thanks Darren

This problem developed yesterday. I'm sure everyone is familiar with how Vista will gray out your screen and pop up a dialog box with "continue" or "cancel" whenever you try to perform an administrative function. Now, however, the screen will gray out but no dialog box will appear, and nothing can be clicked on. Pressing enter does nothing. In order to get out I have to CTRL ALT DEL and then just click cancel on that screen. Even when I get out of the gray screen, I'm unable to perform whatever task it was that required approval. I would appreciate any suggestions

Yesterday I installed KB932716, the Image Mastering API v2.0 (IMAPIv2.0) update package for XP, x86 (32bit). Upon rebooting the splash screen will run forever. A Safe Boot also failed. My guess is that XP is having a problem loading the new CDROM.SYS. There is no information in the Event Viewer about the reboot. What I don't understand is why the new files cause a problem when the original SP2 files have always worked just fine. Any insight would be appreciated. FYI, I copied back the original SP2 files from the Recovery Console and all is currently well. But I'd like to have the Imapi v2.0 installed. Thanks.

I have set up a backup using the backup app included in the XP operating system. I have told it to "wake the computer" to complete the event, I have made sure "run event only if logged in" is NOT checked. Nevertheless, the computer never "wakes", from standby, hibernation, or full power off, in order to complete at the scheduled time. Any ideas?

I keep getting these event IDs 6033 & 40968 on my 2003 server. They appear to occur at a specific time. I have not found any solution on the web for this. Does anyone know a fix? What is causing this? how do I identify the app that is trying to access the Local security? Please help. thanks

I have a video server in my store so I can watch from home. It uses JAVA for play. I go to the IP and I get a login page. After login it will start java and a 4 way windows pops up. This works fine from my XP machine but when I use my Vista Laptop, after the login page I get a (404 this page not found on server). I have downloaded the latest JRE from sun and no different.

Hi, I have a HP laptop which was originally configured with VISTA Home & Premium pre-installed. I just upgraded it to VISTA Ultimate in order to use the "Complete PC Backup and Restore" feature. Starting from the fact that, from start, VISTA Premium was pre-installed on my laptop, no Vista DVD available at moment of purchase, and that upgrading to Ultimate didn't give me any DVD either that I can use, I would have the following question. ==> In case I have a problem with my portable's hard disk so that I need to restore full system from backup, how will I start the recovering process taking into account that I currently have no physi…

This is an amazing and troubling problem. It seems to relate to Windows XP and dual core processors. Simply put, playing a sound advances the system clock. I've seen extremes of about 6 to 10 seconds per minute. I suspect the problem is XP/Intel/MS related. Our PC is a double dual core Intel Xeon: a Dell Precision 690 (which has 2 Dempsey processors, Xeon 5050 series). We are running XP Pro OS 've also seen this on another offbrand PC with a Core 2 processor. This does not happen on non-dual core processor machines. Executing a "playsound" command (which is in the winmm.dll) instead of beep has the same effect (I suspect Beep probably executes a playso…

Documentation suggests the importance of enabling local log on user rights for iusr_computername (the anonymous account taken on by any visitor to a public FTP site) and indeed when I try to enter the site via browser from another box access is denied even though the welcome message I put in there appears. But it still says invalid port command 500 and asks me if I have permission to enter the file after setting NTFS permissions correctly I think I want to check local security policy but it's locked, even when I attempt access to that administrative mmc console as an administrator. (Note this ftp server is just on win2k pro) Suggestions please? Also wha…
