Cannot run the install.exe file...
I have a PC laptop toshiba a500-025 with the following specifications:
4 GB of ramRadeon ati hd4570 512 MB2.1 intel centrinoVista 64-bitI downloaded assassins creed... and when I click on the install.exe file, it says the following: "the version of this file is not compatible with the version of windows that you are running.check your computers sysytem information if you require a version 86(32 bit) x or x 64(64 bit) of the program and communicate with the editor.Help... Ive waited a long time for this game... downloaded and now it does not work!Do you have this of Direct2Drive? Basically, the original Assassin's Creed v1.0 is compatible not 64-bit. You need to have the v1.02 patch. Available here. Although I don't think you can install the hotfix without first installing the game. If you need a more recent copy of the game. If you buy it on Steam, it will not work. But if you have the Direct2Drive version, you might have missed the system requirements specifying that you need a 32 bit OS to play.

I have problems with the sound on my PC (i.e., no noise at all). He told me that the Sndvol32.exe file is missing. I went through the 'fix - it' and the solution is to extract the file from the Windows XP CD. My PC did not come with it - otherwise, how can I get this file? Thanks in advance!
Most of the people do not have a genuine XP bootable CD. This is good advice if you have a true bootbale CD, but given that the majority of people have never seen one in their life, why start there? That's why this kind of troubleshooting tips kill me...
The fix it will not help you.
This will help you:
I downloaded a copy of the file you need on my SkyDrive (everyone has a SkyDrive for file sharing).
You can download it and when you do, place a copy of the file in these two folders (assuming that Windows is installed on your C drive):
c:\Windows\System32
c:\Windows\System32\dllcache (this is where XP keeps backups of important files).Here is the link to my SkyDrive and you can get the file you need here:
http://CID-6a7e789cab1d6f39.SkyDrive.live.com/redir.aspx?RESID=6A7E789CAB1D6F39! 311
When you see the files available for download, you will not see the extension of file (.exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys, etc), but when download you them they will have the right extension.
You have to put the downloaded files in the correct folders on your system.
That may not solve all your problems, but at least you will be spending this part and we can then fix the rest.
Of course the file must never be missing, so something has badly haywire.
If the system is working properly, what do you think has happened since the last time, that he did not work properly?

the csrss.exe file is missing
I was downloading addons for a game on the internet and then later the next time I turned on my computer, it said I was missing the csrss.exe file and so I searched for it looking to see if I somehow accidentally moved and he didn't so I was wondering if there is anyway I might get this file without reformat my computer and reinstall windows xp
How can I get a new file csrss.exe

This version of csrss.exe is for service Pack 2 of Windows XP.You really need to run MBAM.But despite this, if you run at the SP2 level, it is unclear what might make its way onto your PC. There are some out there extremely difficult to detect rootkits. You find you might need to perform a clean installation. If you would rather fight infection, you can always look for guided help: -
How to obtain the bcupdate2.exe file? __
Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!
Ideas:
- You have problems with programs
- Error messages
- Recent changes to your computer
- What you have already tried to solve the problem
If you get a message stating that the file NTLDR is missing, it is unlikely that the bcupdate.exe file will solve the problem, but you can download it from my SkyDrive if you want. I've never used it to fix anything and if you see this message, it's probably not your problem.
You should also start a new thread/question for your question - no one is going to look at this thread that is older than a year. Start a new thread/question in order to get some attention.
I downloaded a copy of XP Pro SP3 file you need on my SkyDrive (everyone has a SkyDrive for file sharing).
Here is the link to my SkyDrive and you can get the file you need here:
http://CID-6a7e789cab1d6f39.SkyDrive.live.com/redir.aspx?RESID=6A7E789CAB1D6F39! 311When you see the files available for download, you will not see the extension of file (.exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys, etc), but when download you them they will have the right extension.
When you download the file (especially if you use Internet Explorer), when you get a chance to save the file, it cannot save the file with an extension (for example, .exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys) then you will need to add the extension appropriate to the file when you download the file before you save it.
You can download the file without the extension, and then rename the file to add the appropriate extension. You do not want to use a file called rundll32 when the name of the file should really be called rundll32.exe (if the downloaded file has no extension, you will need to change the name of the file to add the appropriate extension to make it work
You have to put the downloaded files in the correct folders on your system.

I don't have a winnt32.exe in the i386 folder. My computer behaves very strange sometimes. It drags, freezes and load things on that I do not click.
You can download SP3 from HERECOMPUTER. Save it to your desktop. Use an extraction of files such as WnRar software to extract the service pack 3 you downloaded to extract the files in the C drive. Once the files have been extracted, click Start > run and paste the command below > click Ok. This should install the recovery console.

original title: could not copy files
When I try to copy a file to an external device using Windows Explorer I get the following error message: "cannot copy. The directory or file cannot be created. "I understand that I may have the physical limit of USB keys for the root directory. How can I fix it?
Hi GloriaZF,
What is the size of your external hard drive and what is the available free space? Open my computer-> right click on the external hard drive-> properties. You will not be able to copy more data if the disk is full, or who have less space compared to the size of the file you are trying to copy.
You need to remove the order data to make the space more. Deleted data from the device USB will be permanently deleted and will not be stored in your Inbox, so take care while eliminating unnecessary data.
I hope this helps.
