Computer desktop and the size of the bar tasks has changed
I cut my computer this morning and suddenly everything on my desktop and the taskbar is huge and not yet adjusted to the screen. What happened and how do I get that back to normal size as if it was yesterday?

Right-click on the desktop and choose personalize. Reset your
resolution to a higher number (if you have an LCD monitor, use the
resolution, that your manufacturer recommends). -

13 Firefox is the browser by default on my desktop and laptop, however, they have different menu systems. Why?
On my desk, I have the old menu system that I prefer no doubt because everything is in English and easy to see and search. For example, on the menu desktop there a Tools option where I can quickly erase my history and cache.
But on my laptop, it's the new paradigm where several menu commands are hidden and difficult to find, therefore, I do not like this new design. I don't understand why Firefox made this change, when the old system was much better and more effective.
Is there a way I can get the old system menu back on my laptop?
Thank you
1. I'm not running XP, I use Win 7 on both systems.
2. nothing happened when I pressed the ALT key, the menu bar does not show upward and I'm frustrated. However, I kept trying, hold the ALT key and finally he appeared. I then checked the menu bar, and it seems as if it worked.
Thanks for your help.

Description of the problem: same problem on the computer desktop and laptop at the same time began: cannot install Windows updates (has no status)
No hardware changes or software recently made to the system: I followed the usual procedure to install Windows updates.
Method of connection: wireless
Technical expertise: intermediate level
Performed troubleshooting: because the error # 80071 A 90 type indicated by the system, I followed the instructions of Windows Help and Support, for example to run Microsoft Fix it which did not work; a more advanced method has also been used, who recommended to start Windows Update in Mode safe, then open Windows Update and install the updates and then restart normally. At this point, the problem was that any stage of Windows Update was available.
Hello amib004,
As much as I know, only Windows Update cannot be run in safe mode. That being said, I saw where install several updates may conflict with each other. Try to disable all updates installation and install the updates failed one at a time.

Weired problem with Remote desktop and WLan on Tecra M7
Hello
I regularly use Microsoft Office remote to connect to my work PC to my laptop (TOSHIBA TECRA M7 Tablet) home.
However, since buying (not had long), the remote desktop connection drops and I can't reconnect to the Toshiba laptop.It seems that when I connect to the start via Remote Desktop and the connection start screen appears after a short time 10-25mins laptop Toshiba Wifi connection drops.
When I try to reconnect it does not allow me to do.
I have to physically come back home and logon to windows XP and then re - activate the wifi.I did the following to here.
1 UPDATE the latest BIOS
2 UPDATE WIFI INTEL PRO ADAPTER TO THE LATEST DRIVERS
3. NOT MY BROADBAND, AS PREVIOUSLY, HE WORKED WITH HAPPINESS ON MY OLD LAPTOP.
4. NOT MY WORKING BROADBAND CONNECTION WORKED FINE BEFORE AND IS STILL WORKING ON THE OLD INSTALLATION
5. HAVE YOU TURNED OFF ALL THE POWER ON THE LAPTOP AND WIFI PROPERTIES MANAGEMENT, WHERE HE WOULD SLEEP.PLEASE HELP, IT IS NECESSARY FOR EMERGENCY
Hello
Do you use the Intel Proset utility to configure the WiFi connection?
Try to configure the WiFi network using this tool and check if the WiFi network would disconnect again.I m also interesting this driver Wlan did you use?
Did you use one page of Intel?
If this is not the case, check the Intel page for the new WLan driver version. -
Part of the Menu remains on the desktop and screen
I click with the right button on the system (Microsoft Broadband utility) tray icon and chose the option open. Now the open part of the menu (Open Network Utility Broadband Services) remains at the top of the screen and the desktop and does not go far, even if the program is closed.
Any thoughts?
Thank you.
1 Refresh the desktop by pressing the F5 key.

Hello
you have a problem with my Windows laptop that left me speechless.
I would really appreciate if someone could provide a solution or any ideas where to start fixing this, as I get close to return to the previous backup full system, but reluctant to do so as I have never done it before so I'm worried if it really works as supposed (Macrium and Ping).
1. description of the problem
All users of Windows XP (SP3) restricted accounts open all of a sudden 'Map network drive' by clicking on the desktop and the "research" by clicking on any folder, including My Documents.
However, all accounts administrator work as before and also user accounts work like so usual, they are included in the Administrators group, with respect to the clicks of the workstation and records.
In addition, the correct icons for 'Drive' and 'Record' are visible when connected as long as administrator but lacking when logged as long as user restricted when you check the file associations by "open the folder and then click on Folder Options in the Tools menu.» Click the registry file types list. »
2 solution unsuccessful attempts
2. google and tried the solution to manually change the registry entries from Microsoft: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321186
"
Start the editor of the register (Regedt32.exe).
Look for, and then click the default value under the following registry keys if this problem occurs with folders:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell
If this problem occurs with drives:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell
Click on edit in the Edit menu.
Type 0 in the value data box, and then click OK.
Exit the registry editor.
"(Fixit associated meanings has also not working for some reason, says that the Windows Installer does not run, don't know if the same problem...)
2B. and then also tried the fix "regsvr32 /i shell32.dll" at http://blog.chron.com/helpline/2005/10/double-click-opens-search-instead-of-folder/.
After these steps, the registry under "Drive" and "Directory" information are as attaché at the end read somewhere there should be a "find" under lock and key, as I have, but don't know if the subkeys under 'Search' are what causes weird behavior.
If anyone knows and could provide what the values for the registry values must be in a system that works, would be nice to compare to possible problems.
Unsuccessfully, with what precedes, to solve the problem, but noticed through that:
2 c. When you are logged in as administrator, I am able to see and modify the registry keys concerned with regedit, considering that when logged in as a regular user, I get an error that translates roughly as "the key could not be opened [consultation]?.» Error in opening the key. "for"Default icon"and subkeys 'shell' to 'Drive' and some subkeys under"shellex ".
Oddly enough, this is also the case even if I "Run with" regedit as a user belonging to the Administrators group when logged in as a limited user. Could be the mechanism of Windows registry access.
Noticed that the small group 'Users' did not have access to "Drive". Grant read access, even as the "directory" and other registry keys next to them, for "users".
Now see the values of registry as a limited user, but the problem persists. Do you really know what to try next, after spending hours Googling for answers.
3 computer laptop environment and other factors
3. don't know if it's related, but perhaps that coincides the time and the possible reason of sage:
I had the problem two days ago described in "account Administor doesn't have access to some files and registry entries" to http://www.experts-exchange.com/OS/Microsoft_Operating_Systems/Windows/XP/Q_27415496.html.
Zone alarm free firewall prevented changing the key of HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microdsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run.
Which was fixed as in the article above tweaking of Zonealarm settings so that changes are allowed.
3. the environment of the laptop:
Acer Travelmate 8204 laptop

Recent issues (related?) with the .NET Framework 4 updates and the repair facility. FixIt against MS to install MS Update and the Application works and reveals no problems, but the settings from-> Panel-> Add or Remove Applications said that it cannot change or delete NET Framework 4.
ZoneAlarm Free Firewall version: 11.0.000.057, prevented possible culprit get earlier access to the registry, uninstall?
Norton Antivirus version recently installed 20.3.1.22, possibly in conflict with ZA or bug?

1 set the registry keys determine programs associated objects 'Répertoire', 'Drive' and 'File' to the default values by using the settings found here: http://www.dougknox.com/xp/file_assoc.htm
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\2. If you want to have permissions for group 'Users' to read all these keys in the registry. For some reason any access worked only partly for standard users.
Not sure who finally solved this problem, but after I had finished 1. and 2. for the purpose of 'Record', by clicking on 'My computer' and any folder works normally for all users of the computer.
I suspect that some recent installation of program which adds actions associated with these objects messed up the registry. Suspects are Norton Antivirus and dbPowerAmp.
Thanks for the suggestions for this problem!

Hello I have an xp pro, sp3, the dell dimension 2400. IE 8 for the internet. I use McAfee through my SP which is AT & T. Windows Office suspended and does not, online or off the power. I have to use the task mgr constantly to "shake up" windows start and sometimes, it doesn't work anymore and I have to restart.
I have used all sorts of anti-virus programs and can ensure that it is NOT a virus. It is not my regestry, all updates are current. I keep a clean machine.
I have xp of the process and have nothing wrong.
Sometimes my icons will disappear out of my office, but always come right away. Other times, I get a message that says stop running this script. a script on this page slows down IE run slowly. It is for the most part on Face Book, BUT sometimes also on other sites, like google mail. Yahoo mail, groups and news.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you! :>)

The image (it back up to an external drive as full image) and reinstall Windows XP, update, drivers and everything. Install any plugins that you NEED to do all that you see here that the bat hurt. If the problem no longer exists, something has gone wrong with your system from before (corrupt files or your cleaning is not as complete as you think) and if the problem persists - probably something to do with the material. In all cases, you can return to the image if you wish.
To the extent wherever it is the registry, I must ask, * how * you have come to this conclusion? Not that I'm defending something - I was wondering what you did to decide who is not your registry database? (Side: I agree with you.)
That's what * I * would call cleaning and optimization of a Windows XP machine:
Search for malware:
Download, install, execute, update and perform analyses complete system with the two following applications:
Remove anything they find. Reboot when necessary. (You can uninstall one or both when finished.)
Search online with eSet Online Scanner.
The less you have to run all the time, most things you want to run will perform:
Use Autoruns to understand this all starts when your computer's / when you log in. Look for whatever it is you do not know using Google (or ask here.) You can hopefully figure out if there are things from when your computer does (or connect) you don't not need and then configure them (through their own built-in mechanisms is the preferred method) so they do not - start using your resources without reason.
You can download and use Process Explorer to see exactly what is taking your time processor/CPU and memory. This can help you to identify applications that you might want to consider alternatives for and get rid of all together.
Do a house cleaning and the dust of this hard drive:
You can free up disk space (will also help get rid of the things that you do not use) through the following steps:
Windows XP should take between 4.5 and 9 GB * with * an Office suite, editing Photo software, alternative Internet browser (s), various Internet plugins and a host of other things installed.

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310312You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...
When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:
-Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
-Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
-Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...
1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
2. click on the System Restore tab.
3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".

Every thing seems to have returned to normal, but when I restarted my computer all the icons on my desktop and all programs in the start menu disappeared, and yet, all programs are always in: Control Panel > add/REMOVE programs. I can still connect to the internet by going to-Start > my computer > view > go to the desktop. How to get back all the icons on my desktop. I tried a click right, but in vain. I also ran a scan complete antivirus. any help would be appreciated.
Thank you Joel S. Before I could put your advice into practice a friend recommended a friend who advised me to do a system restore, which he said he would be happy to do it for me. So look like an easy option, I agreed. It seems to have solved the problem (fingers crossed), but now it seems that I need to format the hard drive. If you have any tips on formatting hard drive I'm all ears. Thank you Owen
