Hi

Have Windows XP SP2 installed, i've had major problems with this system. But the main one is that i can't get the computer to save any settings.

For example:
I will change the default printer, upon restarting the computer the default print has changed back.

IE 7 seems to want to find it's internet connection through a LAN proxy server, thus meaning i have to change the connection settings everytime i restart the computer aswell.

Any and all idea's on how to either fix or bypass these problems will be much appreciated.

Try this:

Troubleshooting Windows XP, Tweaks and Fixes for Windows XP - Save Settings on Exit (Line 54)

Tried it no change, didn't save either settings.

Looked at the actual script that runs in the savesettings.reg and it quotes

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoSaveSettings"=dword:00000000

I'm not good with script but Logic would tell me that this is wrong. It however is not the only line of script just the one that seems wrong.
