Downloading MIcrosoft Service Pack 2. Extremely Slow Download?

I just got my PC reformatted from a PC business. I'm using the Microsoft Automatic Updates to Upgrade and download the Serrvice Pack 2. It Get's about 1/2 way done and basically stops downloading, or downloads EXTREMELY slow. My PC is brand new, no spyware...Anybody can help me out??

Downloading MIcrosoft Service Pack 2. Extremely Slow Download?network

If it's peer-to-peer download you could have latched onto a slow or no peer.

It will take as long as it takes. I usally start that sort of download before I go to bed and let it have at it overnight.

Downloading MIcrosoft Service Pack 2. Extremely Slow Download?norton

download it manually off a website with a download manager.

windows update tend to not use all your bandwidth and sometime it will only download if you connection is idle.
try to get windows xp - pack 2 CD and download it.downloading from Microsoft is always problematic.you may have to switch off automatic downloads.though they created it,you don't have to believe Microsoft,they have become just ......... and try to thrive on our mistakes.i would even suggest you to do this if you get a pirated copy.
That happened to me before. The issue was with my harddrive, it continued to have spotty memory, and loose bits of data. Everything was great after I got it replaced, and the O.S. installed cleanly.

( Problem comes from missing bits of your O.S. )

OR

The website (microsoft) is unreliable and spotty themselves. But I know that isn't the case, they run on a pretty big CDN.

My Microsoft office picture manager do not working. Why?

i open a .jpg image with microsoft office picture manager but its only shows 'other folder exist. the selected locations do not contain pictures to preview. Other folder or files exist but cannot be previewed.' how to solve it?

My Microsoft office picture manager do not working. Why?nortan

1. Check the format of the picture file and make sure that it's supported. (Is it a JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PCX, BMP, etc.)

2. Try to get another copy of the picture file. Maybe the data is corrupt.

3. Maybe office picture manager has been impacted by a virus or other malware. You could try to reinstall that program, or possibly look for a different graphics program.

4. If it is broken beyond all recognition, try to reinstall windows... that will fix anything (unless your hard drive has bad sectors or you have some other hardware issue).

After you enter the formula in the cell, you should be able to move your cursor to the bottom right of that cell, and click and drag. This will copy the formula along, and also try to dynamically adjust your formula's in case variable cells change.

then just click out if the box and it preforms the formula

If Microsoft takes Yahoo, will it become lame like MSN?

There has always been such a difference in quality and user-friendliness between MSN and Yahoo, (and we know MSN hates Yahoo for it), and it appears Microsoft is into eavesdropping and New World Order fascism.

If you just want to use a desktop product, then you don't need to buy MS Project Professional. You really only need that if you going to buy MS Project Server as well. Otherwise you can just get MS Project Standard.

You can certainly use MS Project Standard to achieve some, if not all, of what you need. MS Project Server would definitely achieve what you need, but its a significant step up in terms of cost and complexity.

Has Microsoft ever created a software program that isn't messed up in some way? I'm tired

I spend more time on security patches and working around their mess ups than I do accomplishing what I want to. How did they ever become the dominant software vendor? If I thought I could be that incompetent and get rich I would jump at the chance. I can't think of any other company in any other industry that could get away with such incompetance. Could you imagine buying a tv, oven, car, radio, airplane, toaster (ok my toaster isn't the best) that only worked correctly sometimes? The companies producing those products would loose all their customers and go out of business. How is it that Microsoft is able to keep making billions of dollars....hold a near monoply with their operating system and office products and still not be able to get it right? It is so frustrating....

Would microsoft office for windows install on MAC osx?

if i have a microsoft office for windows, can i install it on a mac?

Would microsoft office for windows install on MAC osx?antivirus

Hi!

It may be possible! But this is just a workaround, and you may experience information loss. Now, there is only a way that I know of: use a PC simulator for Mac OS X, install the OS for that virtual PC namely a version of Microsoft Windows and then you may install a version of Microsoft Office on that virtual, emulated PC.

However, there are some issues!

For instance, you have to have loads of RAM (Random Access Memory) and enough free disk space in order to run the virtual machine. Keep in mind the, under emulator, running Microsoft Windows XP, 2003 or Vista under Mac requires that you have a quite powerful Mac PC. I recommend that you use Microsoft Windows 98 and 128 MB RAM with a 2GB HDD on the virual machine. If you know how to do it, then allow a partition on your Mac to be formatted with FAT 32 filesystem, so that both machines (the real one and the virtual, emulated one) can access that drive, this way you can share documents between these OSs. accessing an external partition (that is not included in the emulator) only depends on the emulator itself. Another idea is to use an external memory card (such as flash, if the emulator allows the usage of the USB port) to share such documents. If that doesn't work, than you may use an external server to store those files on: upload then form within Win 98 and download them from within Mac).

I hope I was helpful!

Good luck!

Can Microsoft take on the iPod (and win)?best antivirus software

I think they can. The features are there but what it will need is a flashy name and some good marketing. I mean ipod is a household name.

As for the name on the site MVNO, that sounds a lot like one of the older Creative mp3 players (Muvo, i think it was).

The Ipod is very popular but it's not the best there is. I have always felt that Creative's mp3's players are much better than the Ipod's, sadly the best products don't always become the most popular ones. From the point of services available the Ipod is definitly in a much better position.

The only problem microsft will have is trying to convince people why theres is better than anyother and convincing people they actually need one. Most people I know use thier mp3 players for a while and then it becomes a white elephant, or gets given to some kid. Kids seem to use them more.

Has Microsoft Given Up on Backwards Compatibility?

Has Microsoft Given Up on Backwards Compatibility?computer

Don't keep your hopes up. I agree with Carl and Timmy. It cost too much to satisfy a few customers. If for example Halo 2 wasn't backwards comp. Microsoft would of lost customers thinking about purschasing the system. I wouldnt of bought the 360 if i wasnt able to play halo2. The best thing you can do is just keep the old xbox.

Has Microsoft Given Up on Backwards Compatibility?free spyware

Only on certain titles.
Peter Moore said he was sorry for saying that and they did not stop working on BC.
Microsoft seems to think that no matter how many new systems they introduce, people will still keep buying. BC isn't their problem. Look at how poorly they managed the conversion of systems from W98 to W2K.

Microsoft thinks that they have us all on a leash.

Yet , I keep buying their products...am I dumb, or what?
there is no money in making all the games backwards compatible

1st it costs too much to put a team on each game

2nd they would rather have you buy new games for the 360 (I would have to agree with the HD!)

WIll microsoft send me a replacement copy of XP in DVD format?

Basically, my computer desperately needs to be reformatted. Its a Sony Vaio, a few years old. I have no idea where the original XP disc is, but i have the serial number on the sticker that came with it which is attached to the bottom.

Unfortunately, to make matters worse, the CD-ROM functionality of the drive is no more, and it will only read DVDs, so even if I had the CD, it wouldn't do me any good.

So basically I'd like to know if microsoft sends out replacement copies of XP to registered users, and if so how much they would charge, and if it would be possible to request it on DVD.

Any help or any options I haven't thought of would really be appreciated! As far as I know I can't boot from USB, because this laptop is not that new.

Thanks!

WIll microsoft send me a replacement copy of XP in DVD format?computers

I have never used Microsoft's replacement program, but I listed their link below. However, I am sure that XP installation disks do not come in a DVD-Rom version. Anyway, the CD should load from your DVD drive (as long as you have it selected as the boot drive).

Additionally, you could try the TechMedia company (under links). They sell replacement recovery disk sets, with the full operating system and all the original drivers for just about any PC. And, they are very reasonable.

Good luck!

In Microsoft Excel 2003,when i try to put the digit 3.68,it changes to 24800 or any other number.Please Help?hp

Make sure the cell formatting specifies number and two or more digits and there is no formula changing that value.
Its a format Issue.

I tried running some format changes to see if I could replicate the change from 3.68 to 24800 , but nothing.

As near as I can figure a formula is being applied to that cell.

Just format it to what you want, or use formula painter to change the format from another cell to fix the problem cell

Does Microsoft Word and/or Excell drive you nuts?

I can't stand Word or Excell. They are way too complicated and do too much for me. Usually, all I want to do is type a document. I don't want it to auto-anything! I'm also much faster typing a word than having it suggest words I've already typed earlier and pressing enter (or hitting backspace because it inputed a word instead of letting me go to the next line when I hit enter)!

I know I can turn the features off, but why do they start on? Shouldn't I choose the features I want to use before the program uses them?

I'm just curious if there are others out there who can't stand Microsoft products.

The original Xbox庐 and Xbox Live庐 introduced the concept of premium content to Xbox Live subscribers, but there was always a catch鈥攏o credit card, no premiums.

The folks behind Xbox 360鈩?and the new Xbox Live have a different idea: Microsoft庐 Points, the new coin of the Xbox Live Marketplace realm. Microsoft Points is a new universal system that works across international borders and is even available if you don't have a credit card. Here's how they work.

How Do I Get Points?

Microsoft Points let everyone in on the Xbox Live Marketplace action. First, though, you need to get some. Purchasing Points is like putting money into a special account that you can use on Xbox Live Marketplace. You can buy them online from the Marketplace itself by using your credit card, but if you don't have a credit card, no worries. You can also pick up gift cards at hundreds of participating retail locations and use the number on that card to buy your Points.

You can also get Points as part of the Xbox Live Gold Pack, available at participating retailers. Points will also be awarded to users for various promotions in the future. It's a simple thing, but it opens up all of the amazing premium content on Xbox Live to a whole new community of gamers.

Does Microsoft Wins Xp Home Edition Service Pack Two cause alot of probs?mcaffee

YES. That is why many gamers have "dumped" it and gone back to 98SE. This is REALLY a problem if you have an Intell CPU. An AMD helps due the way it handles "floating point math". If you are only Web browsing rather than Internet surfing (alt's, bbs's, ftp's, news nets and use groups) then it isn't all that bad. Off line it just sucks.

Great big after thought cause I don't mean to mislead you. No on SP2 as re above, but again a big fat YES on XPhome as an operating system. MS knows it. That is why they will scrap it same as ME soon as they get LONGHORN , now Vista to work. Should be out this fall. The pro ver. is out now.
Service packs don't cause problems, they fix'em. In this case service pack 2 is installed for better security.
The first time that I tried to obtain SP-2, I tried downloading from Microsoft and it caused my computer to freeze or lock up. I was able to get it restarted and removed it from the computer via the control panel. Then I requested a disk from Microsoft for SP-2 and have found no problems with installation or using my machine since then. My recommendation is to get the disk from M/S and follow their instructions on installation and you should not have a problem.
It has some hardware compatibility problem,

but it is very rare. I installed SP2 on my desktop and laptop works just fine.

thanks

Sandip
It has alot of security patches. Overall improvement.
Microsoft service pack 2 does wine its downloaded on to your computer but if u buy the up grade CD labeled Microsoft windows home edition with service pack 2 and reinstall the computer with the CD it works that's how i upgrade all my computers and my Friends and family's

Does Microsoft hide data in excel?

I heard that Microsoft developers hide data in the excel spread sheet. Is that true, and if so how can you find it?

In Microsoft Excel, what DATABASE FUNCTION used to find two (more than 1) largest or smallest number

In Microsoft Excel, what DATABASE FUNCTION used to find many largest or smallest numbers in a very HUGE column? (It means that you cannot use single function like MIN, MAX, LARGE, SMALL).

In other words, with one function, it will list many values (not only one)

Sorry Vinh, there is no single-cell function that returns multiple values into a single cell. However, check your built-in help for database functions and you will see DMAX returns a single value from a database if it is a named range.

Hope this helps,

Excel function are working to get only one value in one cell

Means you can not return more than one value from one formula in one cell

But you can create one function in a cell, copy it to another cell and those two cells will bring two values but from one function

This is what Excel all about, and also the most of programming languages

Instead you can use DGET to do waht you want

For microsoft vista?

when i got microsoft vista, i couldn't enable the windows aero feature. it was the replacement for the alt-tab feature sub-ed with win+tab feature. when i press win and tab nothing happens how do i get the windows to cascade across (or on top of each other) alright.

thanks

For microsoft vista?internet security software

Vista Home Basic does not have Aero. You need Vista Home Premium or Vista Ultimate to get the Aero feature.

Compare Features of Vista versions

the only reason why your aero feature doesnt work could be, you have poor video graphics card or your graphics card does not support that feature
Just Buy another one

In microsoft excel, is it possible to change the color of the font...?

In microsoft excel, is it possible to change the color of the font on the little tabs. I have multiple sheets all named by numbers, is it possible to change the color of the font of the numbers??

In microsoft excel, is it possible to change the color of the font...?internet security

possibly.. !!!!

In microsoft excel, is it possible to change the color of the font...?network security

yes. of course
Top right, Tool Bar Options.You should see a letter "A" with a color.

Place the cursor on the cell/s and click on the V to select the color.
Yes, highlight all the cells whose color you want to change. Then up top choose format, then cells, then font and in the middle is the color choices.
yes you can. at the far left of the excel toolbar, there should be %26gt;%26gt;. click that and you'll get a small drop down. the A with the red line changed the font color.
Ya sure , you can
it is. just click the tab for font color. =)
I've not seen the ability to change the font color on the worksheet tabs.
Did no one actually read your question?
Yes. Just right click on the little tab, itself, and you'll be able to do it. On the right click menu it will say "tab color." Select that and choose your color.

My Microsoft Outlook doesn't work. Why?internet

If you are using yahoo email beta you need to upgrade to yahoo mail plus to get the full pop service

http://billing.mail.yahoo.com/bm/Upgrade...

You can use Yahoo! Mail Plus to send messages from an external email address, even if you don't receive or "pop" messages from that account. This means that you can configure Yahoo! Mail Plus to send all your email from one place and choose the address you use to send each message. (Of course, being able to send messages from an external email address is especially useful if you also check external (POP) mail and want to reply to emails that were sent to you at a different email address

Or try this download if you are using original yahoo mail

YPOPs! is not yet compatible with Yahoo! Mail Beta

Does Microsoft have any plans to relase a new Xbox in the near future? (2 1/2 - 3 1/2 years)?

When is Microsoft going to release a new Xbox product?

Does Microsoft have any plans to relase a new Xbox in the near future? (2 1/2 - 3 1/2 years)?kawasaki

Generally speaking, from an R%26D (research and development) standpoint, there's always something new in the works. And when something is as far off as 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 years, (at least in the game industry), the company won't say a word about it. So nobody except Microsoft knows for sure, and even then they're only beginning to make projections.

The Xbox 360 initially launched on November 22, 2005. Historically speaking, a game console lasts about five years before it is replaced with a new model. That would suggest a new Xbox may come out around November 2010... slightly less than 3 1/2 years from now. However, Microsoft has a shorter track record, having released the original Xbox in November 2001. That's only a four-year gap, and if they match that again, the next Xbox could launch as soon as November 2009... slightly less than 2 1/2 years from now.

At the opposite end of the spectrum is the fact that high-end graphics are reaching a saturation point, and it's becoming harder to tell the difference between generations. Even though there's a big difference between Xbox 360 and say, Wii, that difference is inarguably minute compared to the generational leaps we saw in earlier consoles. So it is possible, even if not all that likely, that future new console releases may take longer to roll out.

Regarding Microsoft updates?

What actually happens when I don't install any updates from Microsoft?

Regarding Microsoft updates?ktm

actualy it wont happen nothing,just use security software like av and firewall and no problem actually the xp sp2 doesn't has not even the smallest problem so it wouldn't be a good idea to install some uptades as I heard that some of them "called security uptades"block the 3rd party programs......

Regarding Microsoft updates?nortan

nothing really
Your machine will be vulnerable to those attacks identified by Microsoft and you just have to pray no one will exploit those security holes.

Is Microsoft Office 2007 -the free trial one- good?

://Well I have a paper that is due tommorow%26I want to try typeing it useing Microsoft Word but the problem is that I don't have it in my coumputer%26 I wanted to see if I can download with a free trial , but I dont want to mess up my coumputer after the 60 day trial so what should I do? ;[

Is Microsoft Office 2007 -the free trial one- good?live update

You can download a free trial of MS Office 2007. It will not have all functions, but many. At the end of the trial period, either you buy, or it will not work.

You can consider Open Office, a freebie. I have read many good things about it, but if you every have to open it on another computer, you may have to convert it to Word or whatever software the other PC uses.

Here is a free, online converter:

Does microsoft take Microsft certified system engineer exams online?

can i give a mcse exam from home...if yes then on what site...

what are the benifits of mcse and do i still need a 4 yr course in computers to get a job in microsoft beside a mcse...

can a mcse get me a job....

Does microsoft take Microsft certified system engineer exams online?liveupdate

First off, your grammar is horrendous, and I can't imagine that you would even be able to pass a test.

That being said, no, Microsoft does not offer these on line...everyone and anyone could take and pass the test, thereby devaluing it.

The benefits? Having an MCSE proves that you know your shtt.

You DON'T need a four year course, and an MCSE alone will not get you a job.

Most employers are looking for someone with verifiable experience, not just a piece of paper.

Does microsoft take Microsft certified system engineer exams online?nortin

does this question need an answer?
you need to go to a Microsoft Certified testing center.

i got my MCSE and MCSA in under 2 years and have not had 1 problem finding work. every business needs a tech. i did most of my learning inline and went at my own pace. there are several paths you can go with regards to certification on what O/S and there are several different exams to take.

good luck enjoy
I don't know if you can take the tests online. You can register for them there, I believe. Just look at the Microsoft website for more info on how to sign up.

As for when it comes to jobs.. it sort of like a thing you can use to brag about on your resume if it needs some sprucing up, but it doesn't really do anyhting other than that. You need a college education to get a good job.

My Microsoft Office 2007 symbol is gone!?

My microsoft office symbol has been replaced with a big ugly symbol (a page with a window on it, very old fasioned) it still works and I wouldn't mind but i've got vista and it's like a big spot on a beutiful face!

My Microsoft Office 2007 symbol is gone!?malware

You`ve probably hit the classic view option some where on the right hand side.If not,go to your last save point and try to find it there by using back up option.Also check your control panel first and see if that's set to classic view.
