If the C:\winnt folder should be present on all computers that run the same WinXP Pro, SP3?

I tried to install a wireless adapter USB on my laptop, but I can't seem to get the driver from the installation CD files to load.  I have no problem loading and use of the adapter on my desktop. They are in C:\winnt\system32.  On my laptop (Dell Inspiron 700 m, running the same WinXP Pro, SP3), no there no. C:\winnt folder. This would explain why the CD with the driver files will not charge in the computer and so why the adapter won't work. Why would this file be C:\winnt... not being on my laptop using the same operating system? It would be possible that Dell to have intentionally omitted when they loaded 'their version' of XP?

Some XP system files in C:\WinNT store computers, and some store in C:\Windows .  I don't think that the difference due to the problem with your wireless network card.

The driver installation should ask Windows XP where to install the files, using the value of the environment variable SystemRoot .  Its value, click Start > all programs > Accessories > command prompt , type the following command and press enter :

echo % SystemRoot %

That shows the Manager of devices for the network adapters?  The wireless card is installed, and it has a driver installed?  There are some unknown devices?

  • CD part downloads between two iTunes accounts on the same MacBook Pro

    We have a MacBook Pro shared between two users

    Can I share a CD downloaded on two iTunes accounts, without using home sharing?

    I don't really want to download the same CD twice as that would waste space unnecessary.

    Thank you

    Without using home sharing...?

    I guess it's technically possible if you put the iTunes Media folder to somewhere that is accessible from the two user accounts, but which will cause more problems than it is worth.  For example, you can add new songs in your iTunes library and the other user iTunes library will not know about these songs.  Or another user can delete music files, while your iTunes library expects that these records of songs to always be there.

  • Is it possible to rotate the two iMovie 9 and 10 of the same MacBook Pro?

    Hi all

    Please be gentle with me; I have only just joined the community.

    I have an Apple MacBook Pro 2015 running OS X El Capitan; I used iMovie 10.1.1 and have already fallen on its limits.

    I would like to export to Quicktime so I can have more control over the settings (fps / sound, etc.) of my videos created with 10.1.1 before posting on You Tube, but can do with 10.1.1. I would like to download 9.0.9 and have both versions on my Mac (I understand that you can have both on the same machine) and you can / export to QuickTime with 9.0.9 share.

    I tried to download from the official website of Apple but encounter the following:

    "This update has no need to be installed. A new version of iMovie is already installed"

    It is no possible to navigate around this alert.

    Is it possible to have the two 9 and 10 on the same Mac, iMovie as 9 has never been installed on it, and if yes, how does one?

    Thanks in advance!

    What you propose, it's really not the way to accomplish what you want to do. iMovie 9.0.9 is not available on the App Store and can be purchased as part of the package iLife online from a third party like Amazon. Also, it is not completely compatible with El Capitan. Certainly not the right approach. I suggest you get MPEG Streamclip against 5 squared, which is downloadable for free. Share your iMovie project to file that will give you a MP4 file. Open in Streamclip and you can save as a Quicktime movie. It has a complete set of options, including the choice of codec, rate, etc. to image size.

    It is unlikely for sfc/scannow to run slowly unless the Service Pack to your real XP bootable installation CD matches the Service Pack installed on the computer.  This usually isn't the way things are in the real world.

    You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    Sfc/scannow will not help running.  You can not worry it run in the future.

    Let's see what you have right now.

    Please provide additional information on your system:

    Click Start, run and enter in the box:

    Msinfo32

    Click on OK and when the system info summary appears, click on Edition, select all, copy, and then paste the information here.

    For information about video drivers, expand components, click view, click on edit, select all, copy and then paste the information here.

    There will be some personal information (such as the user name and the name of the system), and anything that turns information private for you, simply delete the pasted information.

    This will minimize back Q & A and eliminate guesswork.

    It seems that the video drivers were considered suspects and since you have NVIDIA, I let NVIDIA look at your system and see what their online scanner has to say about your system.

    I use the NVIDIA site and let scan them online take a look at your video system and see what he suggests for drivers and consider their analysis if they offer a new driver.

    It is recommended to run the scan NVIDIA with Internet Explorer.

    Here is the address of the NVIDIA page:

    http://www.nvidia.com/download/Prescan.aspx?lang=en-us

    Read the instructions, and then click the DRIVERS GRAPHICS button to start scan and see what they have to say about your graphics card and if you need to update your video drivers.

    If you have an NVIDIA card installed, you might think to replace it too (later).

    You can also consider ditching Norton - at least for now...  Maybe just uninstall Norton temporarily using their special uninstall program and get your system stabilized and then when things are stable, reinstall your Norton again if you are forced to keep.   If you have installed Norton 'out of the box' it really installs a bunch of stuff that can thwart the troubleshooting.  You can save time by simplifying your configuration by getting rid of Norton and do it out of the picture entirely until things settle down.

    Let's see what that your msinfo32 and NVIDIA has to say first.

    Do, or do not. There is no test.

    Hi Tdonone,

    Looks like there could be a problem with the hard drive. its certainly worth running some tests on if possible. It is a dell machine you may be able to run a hard drive test when the computer starts by using the f8 key, but if not you must download a free software called theultimatebootcd and burn it to a cd and then start the computer on the cd and use the software on the disk to perform checks on the hard drive.

    Yes, you can delete the WinNt folder as long as you have shot all the documents/files of the old installation and no longer need the information.

  • How to get different email addresses all in the same folder

    I keep asking, but he answered before and my Inbox (I guess as local folders) used to accept emails from my two different accounts. Now, they come in two different boxes which is annoying. How do I get emails from my two email addresses to arrive in the same Inbox, have the same sent box, etc.. ?

    I assume you mean the e-mail pop accounts
    Only POP email accounts can use a global Inbox.

    Quit Thunderbird to access the server mode "offline."
    Click the blue screen two located lower left status bar.
    It will be two black screen offline icon.

    All files out of all email pop email accounts and put them in folders in the "local folders".
    Delete the emails you want.
    Empty Junk and deleted mail folders (for example: right click on the junk mail folder - chute)
    Right-click on each folder and select 'Compact' or ' file > Compact folders

    When pop email account files are completely empty and compact
    "Tools" > "Account settings" > "Server settings" for the pop email account
    Click on the button "Advanced".
    Select: "Inbox for the account of different" and "global Inbox (local folders).
    Click on 'OK '.

    Now, you must check all of the following points to ensure they point to the correct location. Choose so 'Copies and files '.
    "Tools" > "Account settings" > "Copies & folders" for pop e-mail account
    Look at the records of destination for 'Envoy', 'Projects' and 'Templates '.
    Make sure that the messages of each will be stored in your "Local folders" folder locations

    then check Junk - click on "Parameters of Junk" check that the folder selected for junk e-mail messages is the one you want to use in the "local folders".

    Do the same for other POP email accounts

    Click OK to save the changes to account settings.

    Do not go back online - you don't need to download anything.
    Restart Thunderbird immediately.

    When it restarts, it should restart in mode online or maybe ask you.
    If you restart offline, it is not important, just trade back after reboot:
    Click on the screen icon black two located lower left status bar.
    It will be two icon blue screen when it is online.

    This should remove the e-mail account in the left pane of the folder and redirect the mail on behalf of local folders.

  • Why the sent folder contains 2 copies of all messages from MacBookPro?

    Why the sent folder contains 2 copies of all messages from MacBookPro?

    Whenever I have send a message to my Mac Book Pro there is a duplicate in the sent folder. This does not happen with messages sent from the iPhone 6s or Outlook Web site. This happens only when I send a Hotmail.ca and not Gmail.com

    signed,

    Irritating confused

    Hey TaylorP56659,

    I understand how to duplicate emails sent may irritate you, no worries however! I can help you to see if we can get this sorted out. So if it happens with your Hotmail account, try to check in Mail preferences, behaviors of the Hotmail account mailbox. It is possible that you have sent items save on the server that will allow the Mail application to have twice. This is because a local copy and the copy on the server downloaded is in the follow-up of the app the steps below to disable the registration of sent items on the server and will not happen. You can also check the Hotmail settings via webmail.

    1. launch the Mail application

    2 select email preferences from the Mail menu bar

    3. click on the tab accounts

    4. highlight your Hotmail account

    5. click on behaviors of the ball

    6. click on "store sent the Server Messages.

    7 close the preferences of Mail and send a test message

    You can see the other Preferences in the mailbox behaviors

    The steps above should stop these form of duplicates to appear in your sent folder in app Mail thank you for using communities of Apple Support

    Have a great day.

  • where to save the files under options the file name is duplicated how to remove an additional folder with the same name

    Under Options in Firefox, I clicked on save the files under downloads, but the file name twice and an additional file with the same name is created in the folder, i.e.:

    G:\Akbar's Songs\HAMARA DOWNLOADS\HAMARA FORUMS DOWNLOADS FORUMS

    As you can see the file repeats, how can I fix it?

    Also the music files, I download from a site of downloads as a WinRar file and I need to open it. Y at - it an option where the file opens automatically in the folder I chose?

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    Hi Akush, when you install 7 - zip, make itself the default application to open .zip and .rar files. So if you double click on the .rar file, it should open in 7 - zip. If you prefer to decompress immediately, right click the file and look for new 7 - zip items in the menu. I can't think of a way to do this automatically, however.

  • Install more than one exe to a folder or in subfolders of the same folder

    Hello!
    I want to do at least one of the following conditions:

    1. I want to install several exes (built with LV app builder) in a directory because they go hand in hand.
    2. make several subfolders under the same top-level folder EAT install exe in each of them.

    (Upper level) should be the folder of "society". The subfolders are for applications.
    For example:
    c:\company\app1\app1.exe
    c:\company\app1\app1setup.exe
    c:\company\app2\app2.exe
    etc.
    This can also be in the folder "program files".

    If I try to do, I have a few problems of implementation of the construction specifications. If I have more than one generation standard for the exe I can't add in the same folder. At least if they contain the same external files, such as DLLs.
    If I try to do by exe installer, I get an error message telling me that the same folder (my "upper tier") already exist in the registry and cannot be added again. This is also true if I try to do a new project instead of having to install several specifications in a project to build.

    I use Labview 2009 (engl.) Windows Vista (in German).

    If someone has a help for me or similar encounters problems please let me know.

    Holger

    Ok

    for the records: I found out what was the problem (and the solution).

    Both my needed apps the same external DLL. While this should be no problem it caused the new Builder installer/app and me the headaches. The new app Builder seems to build its internal paths in the registry. If you select more than one target of generation 'exe', he gets into trouble if more than one using a subdirectory 'data' with the same DLL and each subdirectory using the name of 'data' of sugested.

    The solution is simple: just give each target generation "exe" a subdirectory 'data' different like data1, data2 etc. and the problems disappear.
