I can tell you what I don't like... That is trying to network a 7 computer with an xp. This homegroup is pretty confusing.

actually i think if you google homegroup and winxp you'll find it doesn't work with xp.
the best way of connecting windows 7 to windows xp is through work group as how we have done to connect xp & vista machine's

I open my computer, access to a drive then it shows many folders viewed as tile, then I change to list and I click on a folder and click back. It still show view as tile.

My question is: how to control the view as list when I move forward or backward.

Please advise.

hi, first it would have been nice had you told us what version of windows as they are a little different ,but anyway, for winxp, set it to list , go to view ,folder option ,then view and click on apply to folders ,this should make it stay for all folders

BUT unlike the gentleman above, I would not suggest trying it in XP mode, as virtual machines are generally not up to the task of running a program like that.

Hope it helps- Let me know.

the gentlemen above said compatibility mode not xp mode ,2 different things ,and that would be my suggestion to ,just right click on the exe and chose compatibly and chose xp ,you can do this either for install or run of the program

I use a power supply tester and it got power in motherboard.

ok so now you have to troubleshoot things like ram,video card and other cards if any, and the cpu /motherboard itself and the only way i know how to do this is by removing them and try booting without or replacing them with a known working one

I bought a used computer on ebay and the text size is too small on my monitor. I tried adjusting the resolution but it doesn't help.
I noticed that the computer is recognizing the old ATI monitor hardware. How do I get it to recognize my monitor? How do I add my monitor to the devices? Or am I asking the wrong questions?

what resolution is it set at .
ati is not the monitor but more likely the video card ,
what text size ,on the desktop or in programs you have open ,or both.
you could go to desktop properties and adjust the text size
what version of windows are you using

my questions are regarding this statement from your post

The value i am experience is with winamp on and mozzila. I can't get a value while playing something because my video card got broken (don't know why, it just crashed while looking on youtube.. never worked since

how are you viewing things on your monitor if the video card is broke.
the temps are from when you use winamp and mozilla ,neither would drive the temp up .
what program/device are you using to read/show the cpu temps
