Repair XP pro disc froze "network installation" section of the disc. How can I fix it?
can I turn off the computer and restart the ERD?
Here are the manuals for your PC...
http://www.Dell.com/support/troubleshooting/UK/en/ukdhs1/product/OptiPlex-170l
The Dell OptiPlex 170 L User Guide includes a section on re - install XP from page 8.
The link above has a tab where you can download the drivers if you can't find the driver CD (or you want to load the latest drivers). Reference Dell have an agenda that is recommended for the installation of the driver...
Print what you want from this Web site that you can access on the PC hit after the new installation. After the installation you're using IE6 that this site does not work with!
Get these downloads and have them on a CD or a USB key (ignore warnings from Microsoft gives you need to be an IT pro or using Windows updates in place)
SP2 (only if your CD is pre - SP2)
SP3 (only if your CD is pre - SP3)
IE8 (do not leave Microsoft direct you to a later version, IE8 is as good as it gets for XP)
Make sure you have your favorite antivirus practical too (CD/download) solution.
Disconnect from the internet (remove the cable Ethernet or a wireless device?)
Disconnect all devices except the screen, keyboard and mouse.
Do the clean install
Install the drivers
Install the SP2 and SP3 if necessary
Install IE8
Install antivirus/security
To connect to the internet
Update antivirus/security
Windows Update
Install remaining desired hardware/software
Do not use Windows Update until SP3 is installed.
Do not install IE8 until you are at SP3.

I can't install any updates for my computer at all, even the window updates is one of the many error messages I receive, Error 1606 could access the location %APPDATA%\ network. How can I fix it?
Hello
This problem occurs because there is incorrect entries in the Shell folder of the user who is logged on to Microsoft Windows. When Windows Installer goes to the sale of Shell folder of the user who is logged on to the computer, Windows Installer cannot locate the correct entry. The solution is inhttp://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/886549.
The steps to correct this problem involve editing the Windows registry.
WARNING:
Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk. I suggest that you first back up your registry as follows: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Back-up-the-registry.
Here are the steps to fix it.
Step 1:
a. Click Start, click Run, type ""regedit ' in the Open box, and then click OK. "
b. find the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell dossiers\
c. remove the entries that show the path that is listed in the error message.
Step 2:
886549 KB http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/886549:
Open Regedit a. once again. In the left pane, click User Shell Folders, point to new, click expandable string value.
b. type the value name that you want to restore (AppData), and then press ENTER.
c. right-click on this value, click modify, type the value in the value data for the value name box and then click OK. The value data must be: % USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming.
Step 8 KB 886549 suggests that you also check the values in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders. However, by fixing my problem, I had not to change values in the registry key. If this does not work, follow ALL the steps in the referenced article.

Cannot install network printer on Windows 7. Detects the printer then it says cannot locate the driver. All my vista and XP machines have no problem finding drivers. It is a 32-bit 64-bit vs questions? How can I fix it?
Windows Server 2008 network. Printers have ip addresses. Install the drivers from the Print Manager. /Terminal Server Workgroup installation.It's the same situation with XP. The print driver names must match. If you notice the name of the printer driver that uses XP is a name different from the one that is installed when you plug in the device on the Windows 7 computer. This is just my assumption, please correct me if this isn't the case.
The real solution is to install a 32-bit driver on the XP machine that uses the same name that the 64-bit driver and share a printer using this driver or find a 64-bit driver that uses the same name as the 32-bit driver installed on XP and install the driver on XP.

I lost my Ipad around two years and just found in my closet. Somehow I'm all my photos out of it so now I'm fine with the restore so that I can use it again. I try to restore and update every time it starts for about 5 minutes, but then stops and says something on the network does not. My laptop has had perfect wifi whenever it must be on the Ipad. I can't connect the Ipad WiFi because I tried to guess what my password could have been so many times it says to connect to itunes. How can I fix that I can restore?
I would like to start by making sure that you are running the latest version of iTunes. If you are not running iTunes 12.3, download it, and then try again.

How can I fix my screen Satellite Pro L300? I went by mistake about it.
Although there seems to be nothing wrong with the external armor but there seems to be a few lines on the screen.The glass is cracked? You see the flow of liquid crystals when you move the screen?
If the lines are perfectly horizontal or vertical, and then the glass behind the protective plastic surface is cracked, requiring a replacement LCD.
