Help and Support Center W/XP-SP2

esalbright

Hi everyone, When I start Help and Support center, I don't get any knowledge base articles when I do a search. The knowledge base tab reports 0 results. I am thinking that this is caused by Microsoft's major overhaul of their KB system.

Norton Ghost problem.

Eric the Grey

I used Norton Ghost 8 to backup my main HD prior to installing SP2 for XP. Everything seem to go find, and SP2 causes some problems, so I decided to back it out. Unfortunately, Ghost saved the images to CDR, and 5 of the set of 30 images had problems and cannot be read from the CDR's.

ATI and WMP and more

ViolentGreen

I just installed the latest ATI drivers and I have two issues. First of all, I don't like the ATI Control panel link that it puts in my right click menu. Any idea how to take it out? Also, my colors have been inverted in WMP for some videos.
