  Also, running service pack 3 before the repair.  Now on service pack 2 that I cannot access windows update to get updates.

• How can I access my space girls 14 years old, on the main screen on the computer?

  How can I access my space girls 14 years old, on the main screen on the computer? So I can see what she gets up to the computer because I have no way of knowing.  She went totally bananas when I put parental controls on its site.  It has a password.  I am the administrator of computers.  Thank you

  I assume you have no access to the password for the user of your daughter.  As an administrator, you may open the control panel in Win XP and select user accounts.  The options will allow you to change or remove the password of your daughter.  Then you could sign on behalf of your daughter.
  However, who would probably trigger another outbreak of 'bananas', because your daughter will realize that you have changed or deleted her password.  This forum is not how parents react to problems of girl.  However, she is only 14, is YOUR computer and you have good reason to worry about his online activities.

• How can I access a journal or a report that lists the results of an operation of Disk Defragmenter?

  How can I access a journal or a report that lists the results of an operation of Disk Defragmenter?

  Windows Defrag is supposed to run silently in the background.
  Unlike XP, it does not offer a newspaper to the user, as far as I understand.

  If you schedule a defrag, you can let it run in the background and forget it.

  Schedule defragmentation
  Start button > Search box, type Task Scheduler > pressenter > invite uac, click on continue or enter the admin password >
  (click on the pointer before) to expand Task Scheduler Library >
  expnad Microsoft >
  Expand Windows >
  Click on Defrag > the middle column, click scheduled d.... >

• the hard drive of my computer is purchased full.i a drive.how external hard change outside the primary disk so I can download music easily?

  the hard drive of my computer is purchased full.i a drive.how external hard change outside the primary disk so I can download music easily.right now my external backup just my computer that isn't doing me good

  original title: external hard drives

  You don't want to change your external drive to your main drive.

  You can move your music files on the external drive - or you can move other data on the disk to make room for your music on the internal drive.

  What applications do you use to play music?

  As described in the first link below, you can move your full "My Documents" folder on the external drive.  Alternatively, you can simply move your music files.  If such an arrangement would give you a satisfactory performance, however, depends on how your external drive is connected (for example, USB 1.1, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, eSATA, Firewire, network) and other hardware features of your computer.

  Not all of the following conditions will be applied to you, but some of the tips can be useful.

  There are a number of things you can do to- temporarily - free up disk space.  The only real solution, however, is to get a bigger internal hard drive.   You can move the data to your external drive, but if it's the data that you use frequently, slower access times may annoy you.  Therefore, I do not recommend that you move your My Documents folder in its entirety on the external drive, but you can certainly do this by following the related instructions.

  • You can run Disk Cleanup (start > run > cleanmgr > OK)
  • You can reduce the size allocated for the restoration of the system to about 1 GB (right click on desktop > properties > system restore > settings)
  • You can disable hibernation (if you don't use it) (right click on an empty spot on the desktop > properties > screen saver > power > Hibernate)
  • You can disable the indexing of the drive, which will also speed up your computer a bit (http://lifehacker.com/031440/turn-off-indexing-and-speed-up-windows-xp)
  • You can reduce the size of your Internet browser cache (depending on the browser that you use)
  • You can remove most of the $NTUninstallKBxxxxxx files $ following the directions here: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Hotfix_backup.htm (read the warnings in the gray box first)
  • See also:

  " How to recover disk space on Windows Server 2008 and Windows XP computers? ."

  " Forty ways to free disk space ."

  But none of these answers you will earn really large amounts of space for very long.  The term solution time is a bigger hard drive.

  In the meantime, download and run JDiskReport, that will show you graphically what files take up more space and seem to so indicate what files you must move it to your external drive.  If you want to move an application, you will need to uninstall and then reinstall it specifying your external drive as the installation location.  You can not simply move the files.

  How can I do a disk Government cleanup using vista on a hard drive that I sell?

  http://www.DBAN.org/

  The above is very good.

  http://eraser.Heidi.IE/

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  OR for a Vista reinstall:

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

• Cannot open my files money 2005 after replacing the hard drive

  Hi, I had to replace the hard drive in my computer and now I am unable to open my money (Version 2005) files. I get an error message indicating "Money cannot locate C:\~~~ or cannot open it, possibly because it is a read-only file or you are not allowed to change it or your hard drive, it is write protected etc.» I tried uninstalling and re-installing the money, but it has not solved the problem. The problem may be to do with the regional settings during installation of money, but when I re - install the money it is not giving me the option to set the perameters during the installation process for a reason any. My OS is XP Home edition Service Pack 3. How can I solve this problem?

  So your real problem is not that the files are missing or read-only, but that the money does not recognize the format the files are in.

  Even if you reinstalled Money, maybe you don't have also downloaded and installed some updates have been released for your version.  See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/320193:

  If you are using Microsoft Money 2005, and you receive this error message after you have reinstalled Money, the behavior may be caused by not having money is not all installed updates.

  See methods 4 and 5 in the article.

  If this does not help, Veritas Aquitas had the right answer: ask in the forum of the money:

• Qosmio X 500 - 10W - can I replace the HARD drive with another?

  Hello

  I have a Qosmio X 500 - 10W with two drive HARD Toshiba MK5055GSX 500 GB 5400 RPM 8 MB? SATA II but is one of the hs so I'm wondering if I can be replaced by a more powerful style, drive HARD 750 GB 7200 RPM / min 16 MB Toshiba courses?

  Thank you

  Hey,.

  Your question is a bit hard to understand, but I think you want to replace the HARD drive with another (faster) model, right?

  Well, that s no problem. 7200 RPM hard drives works, they are a little stronger, but they're faster so if you need more performance without problem.
  750 GB or more are also no problem because the SATA interface is not the limited capacity. Theoretically 1 TB or more should also work.

  Anyway, you can buy the 750Go you mentioned that it will work. :)
