How can I prohibit the windows xp pro sp3 default administrator
account from appearing in the "Run As..." Dialog ?
Application Icon -> context menu -> Run As...

Instead of the win default one the own administrator user
is defined and in use if necessary. The win default one is
permanently disabled.

Hello,

I used "Windows Registry Backup and Restore Guided Help" to backup the
entire registry into a backup file - RegBack.bkf.

This file can be restored using Windows Backup/Restore. However, the XP Home
edition prohibits the use of Backup/Restore.

So how do I restore the registry???

Or there is another way of backing up and restoring the entire registry?

Thanks!

Installed language pack some time back for supporting an international
customer.
For one I can't get IE->Options->Fonts->Language Script to keep Latin based.
It goes back to Chinese Traditional. Is there a registry setting or some
way to force this? I changed the Encoding to Western-ISO.
Secondly and most annoyingly is when I install certain programs, dialog and
text isn't in english but Chinese or both. Perhaps in this case the program
is for international install and it seems to choose Chinese for install
instead of English.
I've searched all over and can't find anyone else with this. If I do they
don't have good resolutions.
Thanks.

After having numerous problems going from Windows 2000 Professional to XP
Home (Had to eventually boot from Win 98 CD) and having done a clean install
3 times, my monitor resolution is stuck at 640 x 480 and I cannot get
operational on a hardwired ethernet LAN (no access on that machine to my
DSL/router/internet. I don't know if the problems are related or if I've done
something wrong . . . Any suggestions?

I've setup synchronization on my laptop to automatically sync some files from
my office lan. When I go home and connect to my wireless home network, the
synchronization still attempts to take place and I always have to click
Cancel to stop it.

In the setup for my synchronization, it is set to sync "When I am using this
network connection" which is the LAN Connection.

There's no option for my wireless connection to either enable or disabling
the synching.

Has anyone run into this before?

Windows XP SP3 and Word XP.

Every few seconds, my computer checks the USB devices -- I hear the default Windows XP sound for USB. At the same time, if I
am working in Word, the Word application freezes, the outside edges of the application AND the windows toolbar at the bottom
of the screen flash 3-4 times, the Wait Cursor flashes 3-4 times, I hear the USB default sounds 3-4 times. Then I can resume
working.

For a long time, I've been hearing the USB sounds. But the application freezing has just started.

There are times, sometimes hours at a time, where I don't hear the sounds and the Word application works fine.

I could use some help trying to figure out what is going on and how to fix it.

Hi!

I tried create an alert using the procedures in this article
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/324796/en

In actions, it's set up to register in event viewer and run a script. The
register in event viewer is OKAY, but the script doesnt run.

I have tried a script.bat with a simple "dir c: >> test.txt" and
"c:\windoes...notepad.exe" and didn't work. Why it dowsn't work? What I am
doing wrong?

I have been a fan of the Hibernate Function on XP and I have been using it
since I can recall. About one week ago, without any warning and/or
configuration changes on my part, my PC just wakes up from Hibernation
without human intervention after 20 minutes. Although I have not changed
anything on the configuration of XP, BIOS or similar components, I went and
reviewed all of them and they look OK to me. I have looked at the system
events log on the Control panel and I don't see anything particulary
interesting there. Am I missing something?
