    - scan disk with each startup Each time I startup my pc a thorough scan disk runs before anything will load in. This takes much time and is useless because it never finds any problems. The message with the scan disk is "windows noticed an improper shutdown", even though the shutdown was done correctly. Any suggestions??? Tag: Hi Tag: 203138

    - How do I repair any security flaws on windows me? I recently left my computer at home while I left on a trip. When I returned home, my little brother had downloaded countless programs and caused my computer to crash. I just reinstalled windows me, and I would like to make sure my computer is secure and has no security flaws. A friend of mine at Microsoft had done it for me before, but now he lives across the country. Is there anyone who can help me? Tag: Hi Tag: 203126

    - WidowsME Crashing when computer is idle & previous posts. HELP Hi I posted general crashing problems re ME about 10 days ago. I get a whole variety of error messages, ranging from page faults to general protection errors. As I wrote before, I have performed a clean install (about 6 times on my friends computer). The installation gave no error messages and seemed fine. I think people found it difficult to help me because of the lack of any pattern in the error messages. After the last clean install, ME crashed even before I had chance to install the chipset drivers & video drivers. I have now noticed a slight pattern. Although the computer will crash at any time, I have noticed that it crashes when left idle with just the desktop on. A typical error message at this point is: Error OE: 0028 : 0070042B. I have checked the memory with DocMemory and also checked that the module is seated securely in its socket. I followed up the one suggestion that was made in this N/G and ran the computer from the EBD and left the help files on screen to see whether it was an overheating problem. It did not crash. It will however crash when started in Safe Mode. Selective start-up is of no help. All devices are working OK in device manager and no problem devices are shown in system inf. I have the standby and power down settings, set to never in windows and set to user defined in the BIOS. I just cant think of anything else to try in order to get this computer working for my friend. The computer has an Advance 6T mainboard, VIA Apollo PLE133T Chipset VT8601T: OS Name Microsoft Windows Version 4.90.3000 Build 3000 OS Manufacturer Microsoft Corporation System Name SPAIN System Manufacturer LEGEND QDI System Model VT8601 System Type X86-based PC Processor Intel(R) Celeron(TM) CPU 1100MHz GenuineIntel ~1102 Mhz BIOS Version Award Modular BIOS v6.00PG Windows Directory C:\WINDOWS Locale United Kingdom Time Zone GMT Daylight Time Total Physical Memory 119.44 MB Available Physical Memory 2.95 MB Total Virtual Memory 2.00 GB Available Virtual Memory 1.82 GB Page File Space 1.88 GB Any help would be appreciated.

    - Missing MRCI.VXD I have a customized, preinstalled Windows Me OS without disk. I posted my various problems in the setup forum but did not really receive help. I have also reinstalled the OS once but have same reocurring problem. Subject is, "VMM (01) + 0000DFD5 Error : 0E : 0028 : C000EFD5" senders name : Gene A link to this is posted at the bottom of this message. I have freezing problems, VMM (01) and VMM (12) errors, like the one listed above. I have already run scandisk thorough many times! Along with scanreg fix and others. This has not solved the problem. I read in some post about a boot log analyzer. I used the analyzer and noticed these two specific failures: Dynamic load failed : [00176B7B] File not found Dynamic load failed : C:\WINDOWS\system\MRCI.VXD [00176B85] File not found I also have a 0E : 0028 : 0000005C Error along with a short list more issues. http://communities.microsoft.com/NewsGroups/previewFrame.as p?

    - SWAP File partition? Using partition magic to partition my new (added) HDD. It doesn't address this issue. Should I assign the swp file to its own partition, and if so, should/must it be a "logical" partition? or better off keeping it in my C: (primary) partition. And how about swap file size... about double the size of my memory or so? Thanks Tag: Hi Tag: 203009

    - Windows Setup fails to add component I recently reformatted the hard drive on my Dell laptop 3800. Im using WinME and cannot get any of the components to install i.e. acessories, system tools. I want to add the calculator primarily but nothing else loads. After selecting the desired component and hitting APPLY or OK windows says it needs the WinME disk to proceed to copy files from "C:\WINDOWS\options\cabs". I insert the disk and nothing changes.

    - windows going wild Not sure which newsgroup this should go to so I'm using this one. Recently my windows have been reacting strangely. For instance, when I am using Word or FrontPage the window will start entering returns repeatedly though I haven't clicked the mouse to do so. The action is repeated while the screen flickers a bit. The problem even occurs is Windows Explorer where some action is repeated until I close the window. I have to reboot, but sometimes that doesn't even help. I'm guessing a possible driver problem with my video card or mouse maybe? I'm not sure where to start. Or do I reduce my graphics acceleration? Or is my video card getting overheated? This seems to occur randomly. Tag: Hi Tag: 202978

    - user profile help Is there any way to save my user profile settings and then get rid of using user profiles? I originally set up my computer for two users, but since DH fails to log in as himself he just uses my profile anyway. I have already removed his profile, but want windows not to ask me for a password anymore. I'm afraid if I select the option of all users using the same profile it will return to the default rather than keeping my profile settings. Tag: Hi Tag: 202977

    - Unable to open folders I've got a Gateway notebook, with 128mb of memory and an 18gb hard-drive, a little over 4gb of which is free. Recently, I've begun having trouble opening folders; it's not always the same folder, either. For example, just now I've tried opening My Programs folder, and I get a bit of disk activity, and the window opens, but nothing happens. Within a few moments, disk activity stops, and everything slows to a crawl. When I do a crtl-alt-del, I'm told that My Computer/My Programs isn't responding. I end the task, and then *everything* slows to a crawl. I either do a re-start or complete shut- down...occasionally, this won't work, either, and I have to resort to turning the thing off. I've run ScanDisk and Defrag several times, and this *seems* to clear up the problem for a bit, but, then I'll run into it again...just ran Defrag day before yesterday and everything appeared fine until this morning. I am on a home network, and *can* access these folders from the other computer, even when I'm unable to do so from MY computer. Any suggestions? David Tag: Hi Tag: 202975
