FAQ, Tips, Hints, and Wisdom for Windows 98x/XP

I've just found out why my XP tried to access my floppy drive every time after I logged on!

Some time ago I read the service tweak guide at http://www.3dspotlight.com

and put "Shell Hardware

Detection" service to manual startup.

Try to check for yourself whether it is set to manual in your case. If it is, set it to automatic. No more

random floppy accesses!

Help & Support – Re-installing

Open Windows Explorer and locate the Windows\Inf folder. This is a hidden folder, so you may need to

adjust your folder options. Alternatively, you can click Start, Run and enter %windir%\Inf to go straight to

the folder. Locate the PCHealth.inf file. Right click it and select Install. Have your XP CD handy.

I have done what you said and it did install. It did not ask for restart but I did anyway. Now when I click

the Help and Support on start menu nothing happens. If I have the task manager open helpctr.exe process

appears and immediately disappears. The actual window just never comes up.

This is the symptom that my script is designed to fix. But since you had actually uninstalled Help and

Support, I felt that just reinstalling it should work. It won't hurt anything to try, but run the script you

downloaded from my site again and try Help and Support. The script is fixwinxphelp.vbs - Repairs

your security settings.

Also select the CONNECTIONS tab and then the LAN SETTINGS BUTTON. On the next menu make

sure that AUTOMATICALLY DETECT SETTINGS, USE AUTOMATIC CONFIC SCRIPT and USE

PROXY SERVER FOR YOUR LAN are all NOT checked then select OK.

You should be all set.

If this doesn’t work (I.E. opens a blank window), try Start | Run | CMD. Type this command: REGSVR32

URLMON.DLL. Click the Ok and then reboot your system. See
