  • 1. Windows XP 64 bit and AMB 64 3200+
    Hello, I just bought a Northgate computer from Staples (still waiting for it to arrive) with an AMB Athlon 64 3200+ processor and it has Windows XP Home. How can I take advantage of the 64 bit nature of this processor without a 64 bit OS? If I need a 64 bit OS how can I obtain one as Microsoft does not sell their 64 bit OS to end users? Thanks
  • 2. setup install box
    HI what do I do with the setup/install box that dowloads save to my desktop? do I delete them after I've installed Thank (I posted this before but can't seem to find the thread anywhere :) thanks!
  • 3. XP compatible software? (Office 2000?)
    Can I install my Microsoft Office 2000 software to my new laptop with XP Home Edition? Works fine on my desktop with 98, but I don't want to mess up the preinstalled WORKS program either. Thanks.
  • 4. WindowsXP Unkillable Processes
    Alright, I keep running into programs that quit responding but are unable to be killed with task manager. Attempting to kill them just doesn't do anything. It wouldn't be a problem except that it also causes any additional instances of the application to also not work. The only way I've been able to figure out to fix the problem is reboot. However, circumstances make frequent reboots undesireable. I found a site that described a similar problem in Unix and said that the solution was to terminate the parent program, but killing explorer did not resolve the problem. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks in advance.
  • 5. No System Sounds - other sound works
    I noticed suddenly that the system sounds no longer play, eg. New Mail Notification just does a beep in the interna speaker. But when I go into Sounds and Audio Devices, all play nicelly when I preview (prehear?) them. Also all other sounds, including IE:s "sound on link click" Now I heard somewhere that in the registry there can be a key that has been inserted in the wrong place, and by deleting it these event sounds can be restored Anybody has a hunch?

Group Outlook emails with Outlook and not Word in the taskbar grouping

Postby sjurbanowski » Sun, 02 Mar 2008 08:01:22 GMT

I am using Office Outlook 2003 on Windows XP Professional.  Until this
morning, all my open Outlook windows, such as New messages, drafts,
replies, forwards, used to be grouped with the Outlook icon in my
taskbar (set to Microsoft Word as my default email editor).  All of a
suddent they are being grouped with Microsoft Word in
the taskbar.  I would like to change it back so they get grouped with
Outlook and kept separate from non-email Word documents.  I've looked
at options in Word and Outlook, but have not been able to figure out
how to do this.  Everything else (Excel, IE, etc.) gets grouped as
before. It is only the email edit windows that have changed.  I've
search all over the internet and cannot find any resolution to this.
I tried resetting my taskbar to the default settings but that didn't
do anything.  I checked my System Restore and it looks like (pretty
much right around the time this happened) that 3 Windows security
patches were installed: Windows XP KB944533, KB943055, and KB946026.
Help!  Any ideas as to how to fix this problem??

Your problem has to do with Outlook and it's settings and NOTHING to
do with XP.  You need to ask in a group with OUTLOOK in the title.

Ask elsewhere

4.Outlook Items grouped as Word Docs on Taskbar

For the last month or so, several of my users have reported that their 
Outlook items, particularly draft emails, are being grouped on the Windows 
Taskbar as Word documents.  Does anyone know why this is happening or how to 
fix it?
We're using XP Professional, SP2 with MS Office 2003.

Thanks for your help.

5.Microsoft Word 2003 documents open on the Outlook Taskbar Grouping

Hello All,

This is my first post. We are using an exchange server here at work
and have one user who is experiencing a unique problem with office
2003, in particular Outlook and Word.

When opening a Word document the document at random intervals will
open over the top of the Outlook group in the taskbar and after a shot
period will disappear along with the document being worked on forcing
the user to re-open Word and the document from Autorecover.

I have tried the following to date:
 - Installed the latest Service Pack to their machine SP3
 - Have tried deleting the Normal.dot file to see if if the problem
has been caused by a corrupted template
 - Have tried using the "Detect and Repair" tool on both Word and
Outlook.

the problem is still re-occurring however. I would like to avoid
uninstalling and re-installing the two programs as it means re-
associating PST files etc.

I am wondering if anyone else has experienced similar problems and can
point me in the right direction to continue fault diagnosis.

Regards,

Chris
