Add/remove programs problem

patrickd

When I try to run the add/remove programs module from control panel in XP SP1, I get a Parser Message that says: Value creation failed at line 472 I can't really think of anything I changed that would have borked it up like this, although I did install Intel's motherboard monitoring software yesterday.

CANNON LBP660 converted from PARALLEL TO USB and WXP

jahman

Hi all, i've just changed my old desktop computer to an ultra laptop. Unfortunately, there is no paralel port on these new devices. So, i cannot use my Canon LBP660 printer any longer in its original Paralel configuration.

I can't unzip anything (as of 2 days ago) = DIW on the net! At first I thought it was because the last few downloads all came from majorgeeks and I was hoping it was their problem at first (sorry major) but I just tried downloading from another site and I get the same problem.
