    Upgrade from Home to Pro, desktop files missing.

    I think as bcaster said if you were using the default administrator account most likely Windows XP during the install has overwritten the entire administrator profile folder if you were using another account previously created that shouldn't have happened.

    I can't delete any MP3 file on my computer.

    I finally solved it. I remembered that I've installed an application yesterday called MediaXW (Name of the downloaded file MediaXW-0.0.6.msi) I uninstalled this application and the problem was fixed. To be sure that this was really the cause of the problem I went back on the website and I...

    I can't delete any MP3 file on my computer.

    You won't believe this people. I've found out what is preventing me from writing in any way on mp3 files and other media files. I'm using Process Explorer from Sysinternals to observe the handles opened from the processes. I've got for example an mp3 file on the desktop and for some reason the...

    I can't delete any MP3 file on my computer.

    V. Frustrating WinXP dual boot problem (not the usual)

    I agree windows boot.ini will still do the job as far as the installation of the two XP are made with the other disk disconnected. Eache XP you are booting will appear as C: and the non loaded XP will be given the next available letter. The boot.ini NTLDR and NTDETECT.COM that will be used will...
