Windows Picture and Fax Viewer Problem ( Windows XP )

Solution to Error loading c:\windows\system32\shimgvw.dll Problem

 

The problem was faced by one our readers who was troubled with the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer that whenever he opened a picture file like .jpg, .bmp or .png image there comes an error message saying

Error loading c:\windows\system32\shimgvw.dll
Invalid access to memory location
Steps to fix the problem:
1.    Locate the shimgvw.dll file in C:\WINDOWS\system32\ folder and rename it to old_shimgvw.dll or something similar and move it to another folder.
2.    Then we need to place the new file there, either download it from here or use the XP CD.
3.    If copying from XP CD then make use of this command (type the command in cmd), EXPAND X:\i386\SHIMGVW.DL_ %WINDIR%\SYSTEM32\SHIMGVW.DLL where X is the CD Drive letter.
4.    When the file has been copied; place the file in C:\WINDOWS\system32\ folder.
5.    Now we need to register the fresh copy once again and the command for that is (enter the command in the Run box)
regsvr32 shimgvw.dll
regsvr32 /i shimgvw.dll
If the dialog saying “DllRegisterServer in SHIMGVW.DLL succeeded” comes up, that means the problem is fixed.

Share Internet Connection With WiFi

Windows 7

You can create an ad-hoc network or download Connectify software into your machine. In my case, I am using Google Nexus One (rooted) with 3G network. My Laptop connect to my mobile network then share to the others through Connectify. Just follow the Easy Setup Wizard to configure. 

If you are using another different OS (XP, Linux, Mac) without supporting of Connectify, you can create ad-hoc network for sharing (just google it) or using RJ45 cable.

There is another option which I am using on my desktop. I am using a Desktop in my house and I want every times it turn on, It will automatically open the WiFi sharing for my house. I can buy a WiFi modem or another WiFi usb. They both work well. My recommendation is a Ralink USB WiFi with Ralink ultility to turn Usb into Access Point.
