Please try to explain what you mean with 'windows xp startup password' As far as I know there is no such thing. So if you can be a little bit more specific, maybe we can help. You could try to tell us what the screen looks like, at what time in the boot process it appears, etc.

sir i knew only these things that a dialog box appears before logon window.in that it is written enter windows startup password.then login window comes.i don't know anything else about it.
|
|
|
|
|
you can try to find the program which asks for the password with Autoruns[^].
First look at the services, drivers and Boot Execute. Disable any software you don't trust, and try a rebbot to check if the password dialogbox still appears. If so, try to disable more programs.

That's a little vague... What OS is it? If it's Windows 2000 or later the client is automatically installed along with TCP/IP, so you wouldn't be installing it separately. Earlier versions left it up to the user to configure networking clients and protocols. But they also created an Administrator user account with a blank password. Normally a user would install the OS, set up netowrking and reboot, then log in using Administrator as the username and leaving the password field blank. The next step would be to create a password for the Administrator account and create user accounts with lower privileges.
If it's an existing installation, check to see if there's a drop down box on the login screen that lets you select between a local logon or network logon - the Client changes this screen. Use the local machine option (the name of the computer) to log on with the old username and password (or blank).

hi!!
i want that during my windows startup a song plays.how can i do that??
|

Stick a shortcut to the song file in your Startup folder. Right-click the Start button, click Open, then double-click the Programs folder. You'll find your Startup folder in there.

thanks for the reply sir.
but if i want to play song during bootup process.is this possible or at any time before the complete login to xp desktop.

Go to Control Panel, and open Sounds and Audio Devices. Click on the Sounds tab and find the Start Windows sound. Click on that and then the Browse button. Your sound file MUST be a .WAV file in order for it to work. You can NOT use an MP3 or RM or any other sound file format. You'll have to convert those formats to a WAV file.

hi to all!!
i have a laptop with xp home edition and a laptop with xp professional.i have data/network cable.how can i share internet dial up connection between two.
and how can i make one as server and other client..
|
|
|
|

Since you don't have a server, you can't make one a server. Also, the Home edition can't join a domain; only Pro can do that. Either machine can share files and printers, though, so you can probably do everything you need to do just fine.
You can't just tie them together with a network cable; it isn't wired correctly. You need, at a minimum, a network crossover cable. The easier, and more reliable way, is to buy a switch or hub - very low cost devices - and plug both computers into it with separate network cables. From there you'll want to make sure that you can share files with either computer, just to check that you're connected and configured properly. This is a Workgroup or Peer-to-Peer network, and is commonly used for small networks. Once you have this much working correctly, you can then proceed to set up an Internet connection on one of the machines. The XP Pro machine is the best choice to host the connection to the Internet.
Whether you're using a dialup account or a broadband connection, make the connection to the Pro machine, then use the Wizard to set up your Internet and Email options. In this wizard you'll have the chance to specify whether you want to share your connection with others on your network. Select sharing and it will take care of the details of settting up the machine to act as a gateway for others. On both machines you'll want the TCP/IP protocol to get its settings automatically, as the Internet Connection Sharing service running on the XP Pro machine will act as a DHCP server to assign addresses and such that will work for your configuration.
There are other ways to do this, of course, and this isn't always as simple as it sounds, but this should get you started. Good luck!

thanks for the reply but i have windows xp home edition in my laptop and xp professional in pc.i have a crossover cable so since it is home edition can't i share internet connection among pc and laptop???
|

Since you have a crossover cable, yes, you can share the Internet connection with a Home edition laptop. Connect the PC to the Internet, run the wizard, and you should have no trouble sharing with the laptop.

That should get you going. Follow the steps on the XP pro box.

thanks a lot in advance.

There's just about nothing you can do. There are many CD players out there that cannot see anything other than the first session. Recompile the CD in only a single session and you shouldn't have any problems.

hi to all!!
if we are to write rm converted to mp3 format on cd at what speed we should write so that it plays well in cd player
|
|
|
|
|
My car stereo has never had problems playing CDs burned at the fastest speed (which is 24x I think).
|
|
|
|
|
Burn speed just has to do with how fast it write the data, not the speed of the music or even the quality. I would suggest burning slow if you have the time. Burning at the fastest speed has the highest chance of corrupt files, although it is not all that high of a chance, it is there, and if possible is best to avoid.
The only way to speed up a Macintosh computer is at 9.8 m/sec/sec.

Would there be a problem in networking functions, if we do not install NetBEUI protocol in windows 2000?(Ofcourse TCP/IP is installed.)
