What do you mean by setting of the user of the system? Do you mean the user profile of the user, if so try to log on as admin and copy the folder of user profile to any other back up devices. After you have fix the problem then you need to copy it back from the the backup device.
Note:
- You need to logon the user for first time to create the user profile folder before you replace the user profile with the one that you backup.
- During the time that you backup and restore the user profile make sure the user already log off the session.

I want API through which I can backup the settings of a user.

backing up is a file copying task, nothing more. You can do it he same way you copy any other files from one location to annother. Using NTFS you need administrator (backup admin?) rights to the machine in question.

I just downloaded a copy of Windows Vista Beta 1, but the only available computer I have to install it on has 240MB of RAM, and the install keeps aborting because it says it needs 256. Does anyone know if there is anyway to force the install to continue even though I don't have the amount of RAM it wants? Is there a way to fool the install into thinking I acutally have that amount of RAM?
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

if it need 256 Mo, it need at least 256...
virtual memory don't exist at installation time of an Operating System as the HardDisk is not formated (not even partitionned maybe).
what happens when you overrun the memory capacity using windows is that the system uses the Hard disk as an extra storage place. here it is impossible.
so, no, it is not possible. if you want to install Vista, add some RAM in your PC... (and if you really want to see it running smoothly, you'll have to place much more RAM for it !!!)

In my opinion, i think this solution is not possible. You must install enough memory during the time that you need to install windows.

You need a minimum of 256MB to install it, no exceptions!
If you want to actually run the thing without waiting 2 minutes for the system to respond to a mouse click, install 512MB or more.

Hallo.
Help me please.
I'd like to write a toolkit that would allow to work with fingerprint device. Such functions as getting the finger image from the device, matching with other, save in database etc.
I have a device and driver for it.
Maybe you can give some tips what to do for achieving this.
I've disassembled the driver's "*.dll"s and found functions that might be necessary, but I don’t know how to work with them...

hello, i am in need of some help. this problem has me completly stumped. i have no idea what caused this problem or how to fix it. i think i have tried everything possible (except a format and reinstall of windows). please read the complete question and help me if you can. thanks.
two days ago i turned on my computer. everything had been working fine the day before when i turned the computer off. my computer is supposed to connect to another computer (ill call it computer 2) on my home network (via an ethernet wire). computer 2 has internet connection sharing enabled on a wireless connection to my router. my laptop and computer 2 can connect wirelessly to my router.
my computer (computer 1) suddenly can't access anything on the network, it gets an IP from computer 2 (192.168.0.2), but it cant access computer 2's webserver (at 192.168.0.1:80), nor can it access any files on the network or my printer/scanner. i tried putting in a wireless pci card that my friend let me use for an hour. that got an IP from my router (192.168.15.6), but i still couldnt access files on my network or access webpages.
when i use computer 1 to ping computer 2, it says:
Pinging 192.168.0.1 with 32 bytes of data:
General failure.
General failure.
General failure.
General failure.
Ping statistics for 192.168.0.1:
Packets: Sent = 4, Recieved = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss), when i try pinging computer 1 from computer 2, it says:
C:\>ping 192.168.0.2
Pinging 192.168.0.2 with 32 bytes of data:
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Ping statistics for 192.168.0.2:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss),
i've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the network drivers on my computer, i've tried using system restore, and ive tried reinstalling windows (did not format, just a reinstall). but i still can't access anything on my network or any webpages. has anyone had this problem before? or does anyone have suggestions on how to fix this?
thanks in advance,
sam kline
ps. all my computers are running windows xp home, SP1

Try to check your router configuration. First question is: does your router act as DHCP server? The second question is: how many people that could access to the router configuration? One option in the router could block the specific computer to access an internet connection.

I take it you have already done this, but I'll mention it anyway:
First, turn off PC2, PC1, and Router. When I say turn off, I really mean disconnect the power cord!
Next, starting with the router, reapply power, restart, wait for the diagnostics to complete, and only then start PC1.
Check to insure that PC1 has internet access. If it does, open a DOS window and type in "ipconfig" (without the quotes). It should give you:
IP address assigned
Subnet mask
Standard Gateway
Write this information down. Now start PC2 and repeat the ipconfig command in a DOS window. Compare the settings and post the results from both machines here.

Remember that formatted and re-install windows is the final decision when you have a problem with your operating system. Try to fine the best way first to solve the problem. Formatted your hard drive many time could reduce the quality of your hard drive and become non function soon. In the future if you have any problem try to find the solution as much as possible in order to formatted windows.

Doesn't The time it self reduce quality not formating?

Yes of course, everything will reduce it quality when the time by pass. Even a human life, when you born -> baby -> teenager -> adult and old. It is the law of nature, but in here if you format the hard drive it will reduce the quality more than you usually use it.

Where did you read this crap? Or did you just assume some stuff and make it up?
Formatting doesn't reduce the quality of the disk surface any more than saving a file. All it is is the manipulation of the magnetic properties of the disk surface, no different than any other read/write operation on the drive. The only difference being that a format covers the entire surface of the drive, or partition as the case may be.

I think Roath is getting some very bad information from this friend he mentioned in a post above.
I hope the friend isn't a tech support guy for Dell!

how can i install sql server 2000 on windows server 20003? because when ever
i tried an error message generated "this version cann't be install on win-2003.
please give step by step inastalation process.

|

Yes, and no. So long as you're not trying to install SQL2000 on the Windows 2003 Web Edition, you can get it to work. You just have to install SQL2000 Service Pack 3a after the install.
If you running on Windows 2003 Web Edition, you're SOL.

i used to have this kind of problem like you too. And i try to post the question to this forum long time and have some solution for me to install an sql server 2000 on windos xp then upgrade windows xp to windows server 2003 then apply the service pack of sql server 2000 to sp3a or sp4. But now i found another solution from here[^] but i never try yet. Let try this way and let me know whether it is working or not. Good luck!!!
