    Keyboard works in boot up for password, not when I enter Windows 10

    I fixed the problem! It turned out it was WINDOWS 10 that caused the problem. The Filter Keys were somehow switched on and it disables the keyboard for handicapped users. I discovered this on another machine when it happened too, but this time an unrecognized icon appeared in my system tray...

    Keyboard works in boot up for password, not when I enter Windows 10

    Thanks for the reply, after reading it I did try safe mode with no luck. The added problem is that the tablet is new and a restore point was not setup so can't go back, but I did create a USB recovery drive which I'm not ready to use yet. I think its been isolated to the USB driver which is...

    Keyboard works in boot up for password, not when I enter Windows 10

    I have been using my Acer 10 tablet for about six months and had upgraded to Win 10 a while ago with no problems. This morning the keyboard stopped working. I checked the contacts to the tablet because it has a detachable keyboard, cleaned them with a soft brush, cleaner and rebooted, no luck...

    External Drive Issue

    HI, The Eagle drive I have has a serial number, but no model or other identifying information except the name Eagle. In the manual it states its manufactured by the Consus Division which is no more. The drive is setup as a JBOB each drive is separate and addressable separately. The drives...

    External Drive Issue

    I need some info on external drives. I just got a new Lenovo laptop with Windows 8.1. I had an HP with Windows 7 and attached to it was an Eagle external enclosure that housed two one TRB drives. These drives have all my critical backups and archives using Ghost 15. It seems Eagle is no more...

    Help Center Not Running - Win XP Pro

    Thanks, ran MJDiags, chdsk, SFC and Services running automatic -- no luck. I am hesitant to do a Sys Restore and Reinstallation for this problem. I had serious problems with these in the recent past. Guess, I will live with this problem and just noodle it; its not fatal. Thanks for all the...

    Help Center Not Running - Win XP Pro

    No luck in Safe Mode, it behaves the same way. The hour glass spins for a few seconds and ends.

    Help Center Not Running - Win XP Pro

    Thanks for the fast replies. I downloaded the scripts (vbs) that fix the Registry, but they didn't fix the problem. I'm thinking that if when I double-click the exe in the Windows directory nothing happened. maybe a Service isn't running that is needed. I don't get any error messages only a...

    Help Center Not Running - Win XP Pro

    When I press "Help & Support" on the main menu nothing happens. I checked the Registry and it has key: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\HELPCTR.EXE The Exe is where it should be in the Windows folder. I looked at Services and it is running as Automatic. When I go to...

    Not Seeing Hard Drive

    To close this out I found the reason for not seeing the hard drive was a drive letter conflict. The drive was copied as C: drive and I already had a c: drive on the machine doing the copying. Thanks for your help...

    Not Seeing Hard Drive

    I have a Ghost backup of a failed drive. I got an external drive and copied the failed drive backup to it via a second, good, pc. My plan is to load the copied drive back into the failed drive's pc or swap out the drives. When I plugged the external drive into the good pc to check it after...

    Reinstall XP Fatal Error

    Sorry for the delay. I used the old file system because mistakenly I thought it would work. I'm sure you are right that is my problem. I have my data, albeit a bit outdated on a backup so I am tinkering with this problem for now. I didn't load any third party apps or anything for a while...

    Reinstall XP Fatal Error

    No, I never got a good start-up. After I reinstalled XP it got to loading the desktop icons and crashed. It paused for a second so I figure it was whatever it was doing next that crashed it. I ran a chkDsk last week and everything was fine and just ran some memory tests and came up clean...

    Reinstall XP Fatal Error

    Thanks for the fast reply. The stop error is: C000021A and tried Last Known Good Configuration -- no luck. I can get into Safe Mode and opened the mini dump. It has the IMAGE_NAME: ntoskrnl.exe and FAILURE_BUCKET: 0xc000021a_c0000005nt!RamdiskBootDiskGuid+bb. I don't know what I'm looking at...

    Reinstall XP Fatal Error

    I am running a Dell and the system was really slowing down with Explorer churning at start up. Ran SFC and other stuff and then decided to reinstall Windows XP Professional to try and clean things up. The install went well, during reboot got the Windows screen, and my icons appeared but then I...

    In the past I've just written down the settings, guess I'll do it again. Thanks.

    CMOS Battery Change

    Well that time has come and I have to replace the CMOS backup battery on my IBM Laptop R30. I was looking around for a utility that would printout or save my settings in case I screw up the battery change. The few apps that are out there are old and not sure if they will work with my XP and...
