• With no CD/DVD System File Checker

  I have an Asus Eee 901 Win XP family.  The netbook lacks a CD/DVD drive.  How can I run the System File Checker when he asks I insert the Windows XP SP3 CD?  Is it possible to have the System File Checker displays the name of the file it wants to repair/replace?

  Hi DonMay,

  You have the installation files to your hard drive? Folder i386?

  You need to change the path to the registry click Start-> Run & Type-> regedit-> ok-> navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\-> double click-> SourcePath-> enter the location of the reader.

  Also check-> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion-> SourcePath.

  If the I386 directory is at C:\I386, the SourcePath value is C:\

  or if the I386 directory is at C:\Win\I386, the SourcePath value is C:\Win.

  I hope this helps.

• Lost in My Documents after the failure of the system files

  I have a (~ 6 years old), Dell Precision Workstation 360 serice XP Pro pack 3. This morning when I got up the screens show vertical bands of color. Given zero has nothing - not even the selection screen or function key boot options to enter the bios Setup. In brief - not even a partial boot - just (double) monitors show the vertical lines of color. Encryption on the motherboard could have found death I took the C: drive and plugged into one another computer (XP) via one box drive external usb. In windows Explorer I can see just about everything that I expect to see on the drive except in the My Documents folder. I don't know what should be there, but the only in My Documents is the music of my pictures of my user name and user name. The only items in these folders are the XP sample music files and images. I did a search on the entire disk for a couple of files that I know should be in My Documents, but nothing was found. Since then, I ran a virus scan using Norton Internet Security, but he found no virus. I've got some critical files on this disc I need today. Stupid me - had not saved them in a few weeks, so a lot of work is missing.

  Any assistance to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.

  It seems that there are file system corruption, after the failure of your hardware. Try some recovery software data (links below) or, if data is critical and expense is not a problem, don't take any chances and send the drive to a professional drive savers data recovery company.

• Windows/temp filling with magick-* files

  As the title says, my temp folder fills with thousands of files labeled magick-*, ranging in size from 12 MB to nearly 100 MB. Cannot find malware. The files are created regularly, taking about 1 gig every 10 minutes approximately.

  Found the problem. The files have been created and published by hcavserver.exe, apparently part of the software used for the Kodak Theatre HD player I use. Uninstalled and the problem disappeared.

  System File Checker is not a universal solution, but it can help in certain situations.

  You really ned to determine the nature of the error before deciding on solutions.

  Event Viewer reports

  1. normally, when an error occurs on your computer looking in Event Viewer should be your starting point to find a solution. More related system errors are recorded and get an exact copy of the relevant report is important. Unfortunately, is not easy to understand reports and most of the users computer need help with their interpretation. I have to say later interpretation.

  2 Event Viewer includes three main newspapers of Windows. Here's the Application, security, and system. For purposes of troubleshooting system is by far the most important.

  3. to access the system log, select Start, Control Panel, administrative tools, Event Viewer, in the list on the left of the window select Windows and the system logs. Place the cursor on the system, right click and select filter current log. Check the front of the error and click OK and see you only reports errors. Click the Date and time column header to sort. You may need to click a second time to see the last report above.

  4. a tip for posting copies of error reports! Run Event Viewer and double-click the error you want to copy. Select the Details tab and check the box in front of the XML view. Click the copy button to place a copy in the Clipboard and close Event Viewer. Now start your message and paste it into the body of the message. Make sure that it is the first dough right out of the event viewer.

  5. He cautioned against three types of reports, information, and reports errors. In most situations, it is the error reports that offer the best information but sometimes WARNING reports provide useful clues.

  6. all reports have stamps date and hour and when troubleshooting, it is important to focus on the latest reports. Reports of studies from the point when the computer is started, and then check if a similar report appeared in the previous session. If errors do not repeat investigation as to why they happen is wasted effort.

  7. in the individual reports the most important information is the event ID and Source such as these help when looking for help on the internet. The description is just as important and copy the exact text to use as search criteria greatly helps achieve better results when using Google. Not paraphrase descriptions when other people asking for help.

• Windows 7 continues to write thousands of jpg files on c:\windows\serviceprofiles\networkservice\appdata\local\microsoft\media player\art cache\localmls subdirectory in the form of system files.

  Let me describe what is happening. I used the 'get info' in iTunes to add various jpg work at the individual level of CD (i.e. selecting song at the same time) multiple.  ITunes displays the work very well and works very well. Over a period of time, I noticed deterioration in system performance and when I tried to create a disc using CMS Bounceback Ultimate image has noticed that the number of files on my hard drive had increased from 250,000 to about 1 000 000. After much research and a bit of luck, I determined that Windows 7 has written these JPGs repeatedly in the subdirectory cache\localmls of c:\windows\serviceprofiles\networkservice\appdata\local\microsoft\media player\art. These are the same files jpg, I added in iTunes. When I discovered, there are about 700,000 of these small files in this subdirectory in the form of system files which are hidden files. I was able to remove these files first reset file attributes (attrib s h - r *.jpg) and using the del command. Unfortunately, the system continues to write the same files in the same sub and a few hours, I have thousands of these files written again. I checked the system for virus/malware using the latest versions of sophos, malwarebytes, and spy hunter. There is no malware reported by one of these programs.  I also stopped Sophos and tried again but the problem persists. I have also rebuilt iTunes library by following the steps described by Apple, but this does not solve the problem. Any suggestions I can try next?

  If not, perhaps, you create a batch file to run at startup or schedule tasks to remove *.jpg files that appear in this folder?

  An approximate example of a batch file would be in this sense. It would be created in Notepad but recorded in a .bat file.

  CD "windows\serviceprofiles\networkservice\appdata\local\microsoft\media player\art cache\localmls".

  This is only a rough guide and may need a lot of amendments by you that I'm not familiar with batch files, but it shouldn't be too hard to do.  The batch by operating manually or in scheduled tasks file would need administrative privileges or the localmls access permissions set properly for the user.

  If you are able to get to the screen, then you can perform

  You can check the disk for errors and repair problems related to bad sectors, lost clusters, reticulate files and directory errors.

  Check a drive for errors: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Check-a-drive-for-errors

  Important: while performing the check disk on the hard disk, if bad sectors can be found, then check disk will try to repair this sector. All the data available in this area may be lost.

  In addition, you can also scan the computer using Windows Defender in offline mode.

  Windows Defender offline because it can help eliminate hard to find malicious and potentially unwanted programs using definitions that recognize the threats. The virus scan done offline using Windows Defender is different because the scan is done outside of the Windows environment.

  Definitions are files that provide an encyclopedia of potential software threats. Armed with definition files, Windows Defender in offline mode can detect malicious and potentially unwanted software and then inform you of the risks.

• MS Paint "fill with color" tool does not work. :(

  In the painting, my "fill with color" tool (the pouring paint can) does not work. I click on the box, I click on a different color, the icon changes to the can, but when I click on a space as say an empty circle, it doesn't do anything. Right click, nothing, left click, nothing.

  I noticed that the only thing he is able to do is to change a solid color that I did (as a solid black rectangle) in a different color, but only once. If I rectangle black color green, I can't change it to any other color after. I don't know what is happening.

  I am not edit a photo or anything btw, I start a new painting from scratch file. I'm trying just to circles of color and enclosed spaces. I've done this dozens of times with no problems. I tried restarting the computer and paint without effect.

  Thanks for any help!

I do not trust him and hang up, but called the number, responded to the same person (as he had an Indian accent with a lisp in addition to this) and he said that Joseph and not James!
  Scam or what? Thank you

  It is a scam! Who is becoming extremely common and was even on the news in some places. As long as you don't give them any personal information, you should be fine. Should they call once again, simply hang up.
