How do you print system configuration on windows xp operating system?
It's quite simple. You use the start menu to go to the XP Help and Support Center instead of using XP's System Resources Utility. Click on the Start button (lower left), select Help and Support Center, and when it opens choose, under the general tasks heading, Tools to view your computer information and Diagnose Problems. On the tools page, select My Computer, then select the heading with the information you seek. I'm afraid I did this in Italian, so I don't know exactly what the English Language headings are. I chose to look up general information on my system, the page that came up was legible and had a print option on top. It could also be copied and pasted!

What are the advantage of OS having monolithic and microlithic kernel?
There is no meaning asking "advantages of having monolithic and microlithic", rather it would be meaning full if "advantages of monolithic over micro kernel" or the other way.
Most of the common OS's we know uses monolithic architecture. Windows NT/Xp, Unix , Linux, BSD are some examples. In monolithc sysytems whole OS is a single peice of executable, which is much large compared to micro kernel system. (Windows Xp - more than 5 million lines of code).
Advantages - since all resources are handled in one place it could say that is is better in performance, and easy for kernel developers. Other than that it provides high level of protection between applications.
Microkernel is a system where the kernel is kept very small providing minimal set of abstraction (IPC, VM, Process sheduling). All other services are server processes running at user level .Mach, Chorus, QNX, GNU Hurd are some examples for micro kernel systems.
Advantages - Due to its small size and logical and clean behaviour, it is easily understandable. Os is easily extensible, for a new feature its a matter of implementing server for that feature. Easily port with any OS, (but hard to port with new hardware)
In most computer applications the IF function operates in the fashion IF/THEN/ELSE:
IF a certain condition is met THEN perform some action, ELSE perform a different action (which could be to take no action at all).
For example:
=IF(A+B>=100,"Target Met","Target not met")
IF A+B is greater than or equal to 100
THEN display, "Target met",
ELSE display, "Target not met".

User State Migration Tool (USMT) is used to transfer user files and folders, display properties, taskbar options, and browser and e-mail settings form a Windows 9x/Me or Windows NT/2000/XP computer. 1. Use a windows XP computer to create a disk that contains the files and settings Transfer wizard. This PC does not need to be the same PC that will later receive that transfer. 2. Use the disk on the source computer (the user's old PC) to run the wizard and copy the user state to a server hard drive or removable media such as a ZIP drive. 3. On the destination computer (new computer), use the wizard to transfer user state to this computer.
implement (verb) means to use. "I will implement your new device in the final process." implement (noun) means tool, or instrument. "Evidence shows that they were adept at making and using implements of stone, bone and wood."
Steps for specifying a search that will return all files with a doc extension using windows search.?
It varies slightly depending on the version of windows you are using.
The basic steps are to use the 'wildcard' expression '*' (no quotation marks) in the search window of Windows explorer.

There are certain defaults for size and date, usually 'Any'. Leave this as is.
In the 'File Name' box type; "*.doc" (no quotation marks)
This should return the results required.

What age did bill gates invent windows?
He started Microsoft and he was one of the major frontrunners of the Graphical User Interface system of computers, which he called windows.
Chances are, you are using windows, with, thanks to Windows Xp (home and pro), we can store hundreds or more of windows in stacks on the nice little blue taskbar on the bottom of the screen (unless you unlocked yours and moved it).
Sure, he is a nerd with a horrible hair style, but the Xbox 360 is gold, and he is credited with that!
This is inaccurate. Bill Gates did NOT invent the windows system. The idea of using Windows, Icons, Menus and Pointers - sometimes called the WIMP system - was first developed at the Palo Alto Research Center by a the employees of the Xerox company. They chose not to do anything with this and Steve Jobs at Apple, there on a visit, saw the potential and went with this system on his Apple computers.
Bill Gates was eventually persuaded of the virtues of this system, and when ordinary PCs became powerful enough to use it, he decided that Microsoft should produce a WIMP system of their own. This was called "Microsoft Windows" and eventually (by version 3.1) became widely adopted on PCs.
It took hundreds of people to write Microsoft Windows, and the original idea was already working on Apple computers. Bill Gates did contribute to the programming design, but cannot be said to have "invented" the WIMP system at any age.
Gates and Allen founded Microsoft back in 1975, Windows was not a really viable way of working with a PC until the mid-80s.
