How to set up custom paper in Windows XP

The author of a needle-type printer has been used normally, because of the installation of a new set of software to upgrade the operating system to Windows XP. But found a modest problem, originally in Windows 98 printer custom paper settings options are not, and I need non-standard paper printing, after some groping, only to find a solution.

Click "start → settings → printers and Faxes" to select "Print Server Properties" in "Files" in the window that appears. In the Pop-up Properties dialog box, select "Create new format" and then name the table you created in the table name above. Enter the size of the custom paper in the format description (size), noting that the metric unit is cm instead of 0.1mm in Windows 98, don't make a mistake. Finally click "Save Format", finished, point "off", you can use the normal Windows XP custom size of the paper.

SP2 again to add trouble

The problem with installing Windows XP SP2 I'm afraid it will continue for a long time, here Amon remind you to install the SP2 friend, because the IE Pop-up Blocker may conflict with Windows Update, sometimes in the use of IE, there will be "HTTP500 error- Internal network 0x8ddd0010 Error "prompt information. You can actually set up a pop-up blocker, or you can log on to the Windows Update Web site's pop-up window.

First open IE Browser, select Tools menu → pop-up blocker → settings. Enter http://v5.windowsupdate.microsoft.com in the page Address edit box and click Add. Close the Pop-up Blocker settings.

Win XP also bulk convert picture format

Usually, when you convert a large number of BMP format images to JPG images, you will use Photshop, ACDSee and other software to complete. What if you don't have the software? Don't worry, Windows XP has a simple ability to bulk convert pictures. Note that this method can only convert BMP format to JPG format. The specific methods are as follows:

Select the BMP picture that you want to convert, and click the right mouse button. Select "Send to → Mail Recipient" from the menu that pops up. A "Send photos by email" window will pop up. Select the Shrink all photos option in the window and select the size of the picture, and click OK. Then Windows XP automatically converts these BMP pictures into JPG images and pops up a "send email" window, where we just save the converted pictures and we're done.　　and its conversion quality is no less than the conversion of professional software. Unable to display the Windows Update page

File corruption prevented partition from being sorted

Q: I'm using a WINDOWS XP system that prompts for C:\WINDOWS\prefetch\WMIPRVSE when defragmenting disk in C disk. exe-28f301a9.pf. File corruption, scanning can not be carried out, and the collation of other partitions do not have this phenomenon, I would like to ask how this solution?

A: C:\WINDOWS\prefetch is a WINDOWS XP read-only folder (to reduce the startup time of the system), after the system has been used for some time, this read-only folder will become very large, and there will be some dead chain files, so we recommend that you delete the prefetch folder files, And then defragment the disk.
