    - Windows Updates after a clean reinstall I've recently done a clean reinstall of Windows ME on a Dell Dimension 4100 using a Dell reinstallation CD (PC and CD are six years old). I'm looking for the least error-prone way of reinstalling the critical Windows updates. I would prefer a procedure that can be used after Microsoft drops support for Windows ME (this summer). I have the Windows Update installation history for this PC. I also have a recent Belarc listing of updates just prior to the clean reinstall. My internet connection is dial-up (no broadband). Reinstalling the updates would be easier if I had the Windows Security Update CD. According to the Microsoft Order Desk, this CD is no longer available. There are two options I'm considering. Option 1: On another PC, download the critical updates from the Windows Update Catalog. Burn the updates to CD. Option 2: Visit Windows Update and let it select the critical updates. After updates are installed, take a disk image and burn to CD. One question is common to both approaches. Should I first install WMP9 and IE6 (or is IE6 itself an update?). I started by trying to use Option 1 (Windows Update Catalog). The list of critical updates from Windows Update Catalog is much shorter than my installation history list. Many updates on my installation history are for earlier versions of IE and WMP. However, I'm concerned that the list from Windows Update Catalog may omit some needed updates. Also, there are a few updates listed from Windows Update Catalog that are not on my installation history. IE6 does not appear on the list from Windows Update Catalog. Has anyone yet posted the list and order of critical updates for a Windows ME clean reinstall? How shoud I proceed? PS: Prior to posting this, I searched the web for recommendations. This search included checking websites aumha.org, windowsreinstall.com, and crashfixpc.com. From the archives of this newsgroup I viewed the thread "Windows ME Update Order" posted in November 2005.

    - WinMe measures CPU usage TWICE..both different! Hi I've been puzzled for some time as to why the multitude of third-party utilities that report CPU usage can be divided into two distinct groups: those that report LOW values and those that report HIGH values. (E.g. on my computer when lightly loaded, Process Explorer sees CPU usage as typically 2-4% while FreeMeter gives it as 50-70%). Now, I find that within Windows WinMe itself, two utilities are available which report very dfferent CPU usage numbers. These are WinTop (subtract the Idle usage from 100% to get the number that Task Manager reports as CPU usage in the NT OSs) and System Monitor. Is one more correct than the other or should a different significance be associated with each? TIA Paul Tag: Ad-aware Definition File Update [SE1R108] 17.05.06 Tag: 281614

    - Colors flaky In April I installed Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2.8 SP1 and the KB911562 and KB912812 updates. Since then the colors displayed by my browsers, both IE Explorer and Firefox, and also other programs (e.g. Adaware) have been flaky, inconsistent. The appearance is what I have been used to seeing when a browser page has not completely loaded. Any suggestions for fixing the problem?

    - Repost: Problem with "My Pictures" Folder Couple things: 1) After I sent the message below, I had a heckuva week and did not have time to check in but a couple times. Someone sent a reply, and I intended to offer thanks for that; but this morning, the reply in not showing up in my mailbox! SO... to whomever, I thank you for responding. 2) His reply had referred me to Control Panel/Tweak UI settings, to make sure "My Documents" was set as the first icon on my desktop. It really looked like that was the answer. Unfortunately, the setting was already correct; so that is not the problem that is screwing up "My Pictures."

    - Very slow printing to shared ME printer Pentium III Windows ME machine that functions very well on its own. Motorola cable modem Linksys WRT54G wireless router One Motorola Vonage ATA plugged into the router One Linksys RT31P2 router/ATA Vonage adapter plugged into the router Yesterday I created a Windows workgroup using the ME machine and two XP laptops (one laptop using wired connection, the other using wireless connection). The only shared device is an Epson CX5800F multi-function printer on the ME machine. The workgroup set up okay, and the computers can see one another. I think the basic config is alright. However, printing from the XP machines to the shared Epson on the ME machine takes a long, long time - approximately 3-5 minutes. Printing from the ME machine, however, is immediate. What might be going on here? And please let me know what important info I left out. I will fill in the blanks where I can.

    - MDAC Wiped Out by Auto Update Windows ME comes with MDAC 2.5. My MDAC got mysteriously wiped out, and with Windows ME you can't remove it and reinstall it. You have to reinstall Windows. So I did that. I have a fresh installation of Windows on a clean hard disk. Now, after a few days, I believe I discovered how the MDAC had gotten wiped out. The Windows auto-update did its thing and the next thing you know, I'm the proud owner of MDAC 2.7 SP1, wihch is only for Windows XP. That would be pretty good if it worked. Unfortunately, it looks like I have to reformat my hard disk again, in order to get any programs that use MDAC to work, including Visual Basic recordsets and a couple of programs that I have installed and that now give an error when I try to start them. The error says "Run time error 13 - Type Mismatch". I'm pretty close to certain that it was the Windows Auto-Update that did it. I uninstalled the two windows updates that were available to uninstall, but of course that's not going to undo the damage to the system's MDAC. Is anyone familian with this MDAC wipe-out problem with Windows Me? There's probably a 1 in 1,000 chance that it was caused by something other than the Windows Auto-Update, but I believe that's what did it. Now when I run a program source code in Visual Basic and tries to instantiate an adodb recordset, it says Server Component Can't Create Object. I use ComCheck to see what's happening with MDAC and it shows that my MDAC is now 2.7 SP1(XP). Tag: Ad-aware Definition File Update [SE1R108] 17.05.06 Tag: 281517

    - Missing Icons from Start Button - My Dad's computer is missing all of the icons on his start button. We did the normal defrag and scan disk but hasn't been able to run his visus checker (via AOL). He also apparently can't open up some AOL email documents. When someone came over to help troubleshoot it the following odd questions were asked. 1) Does he have a second computer attached to the first one (never) 2) When he called AOL they mentioned that he had called last Friday (the day the problem started) but he in fact didn't. (perhaps my mom did and screwed the computer up). Is there a virus that would cause this to happen? ie make the icons on the start button dissapear.

    - Show file extensions in WinMe Hi everybody When I go into My Documents, not all of the files shown display their file extension. This is particularly true for .pif files. Even right-clicking on the file, and bringing up Properties, shows absolutely no information about the file extension. (I only know it's a .pif file because of its association with a .bat file of exactly the same name). Is there any way I can get ALL of the file extensions in whatever folder to reveal themselves? Just as an addendum to the above query, I use the CRON utility for scheduling events. The actual scheduling script goes into a file called crontab. However, no extension is shown for this file. When I try to open it, I must force WinMe to open it with NotePad every single time! The "Open with" dialog box has the "always open these files with" check box grayed out. Can anyone explain what's going on here? TIA Paul Tag: Ad-aware Definition File Update [SE1R108] 17.05.06 Tag: 281264

    - TaskManager causes clock to stop Hi everybody When I open TaskManager on my WinMe machine, the clock in the system tray stops. Is this normal? I cannot think why there should be any connection between TM and the clock. However, when I shutdown TaskManager the clock resumes at the CORRECT time. Note that I use TclockEx to provide the date and day of week in the clock "box". TIA Paul Tag: Ad-aware Definition File Update [SE1R108] 17.05.06 Tag: 281174

    - Queries on RTF behavior w.r.t Zoom & Scroll features Gentlemen! Greetings! We are herewith presenting our queries about the behavior of the RichTextBox RTF control with respect to its zoom feature and scrollbar when an image pasted in it is resized. Background We are developing a software application using Visual Basic 6.0 (for the Front-End GUI) and MS Access (as back-end database) that allows a user to build, store, and organize RTF (Rich Text Format) documents. The interface comprises of an area which contains an RTF control i.e. the RichTextBox control (richtx32.ocx). The user can type in text and/or paste images and use all the formatting features supported by RTF, in this RichTextBox control. Query 1 -Behavior of the RichTextBox RTF control when it is zoomed The interface of our software application contains a "Zoom" button which brings forth a dialog box from where the user can zoom and view the contents displayed in the RichTextBox RTF control. This dialog box contains a "Zoom-in" button which allows the user to view the contents in the RTF control at a higher zoom resolution, as well as a "Zoom-out" button which allows the user to view the contents in the RTF control at a lesser zoom resolution. The user can keep clicking on the "Zoom-in" or "Zoom-out" buttons to increase or decrease the zoom resolution respectively. We have observed that the "Zoom" feature discussed above, does not work in case our application is installed on computers running on Windows 98 Second Edition and Windows Millenium Edition Operating Systems. That is, if the user clicks on the "Zoom" button in the interface of our software application, the dialog box containing the "Zoom-in" and "Zoom-out" buttons is brought forth. But, clicking on either of these buttons has NO EFFECT. Query 2 - Behavior of the horizontal scrollbar in the RTF control If the user has typed in large text and/or pasted large images in the RichTextBox RTF control in the interface of our software application, then vertical and horizontal scrollbars automatically appear, in order to enable the user to scroll and view these contents properly. However, we have observed in case our application is installed on computers running on Windows 98 Second Edition and Windows Millenium Edition Operating Systems, the horizontal scrollbar does not work. That is, the user is unable to scroll the contents in the RTF control from left to right and vice-versa. The user CAN move the scrollbar, but the text and/or images in the RTF control DO NOT move along with the scrollbar - i.e. there is a 'False' sense of the movement of the scrollbar. We would therefore request you to kindly explain the reason behind the above issues, and thereby suggest suitable solutions for the same. We would look forward to your reply at the earliest. -- Remittag Software Company Pvt. Ltd. Tag: Ad-aware Definition File Update [SE1R108] 17.05.06 Tag: 281173

    - Modem Drivers One of the files is missing and it looks like that it is a modem file. The bootlog.txt entry is:- Modem (CXT\VEN_127A&DEV_2016&SUBSYS_4052122D\WDMMDM0) [0004441D] Starting MSP3880SP-W 56K Modem (CXT\VEN_127A&DEV_2016&SUBSYS_4052122D\WDMMDM0) ************************************** [0004441D] Dynamic load device [0004441F] Dynamic load failed : [0004441F] File not found *************************************** [0004441F] Started MSP3880SP-W 56K Modem (CXT\VEN_127A&DEV_2016&SUBSYS_4052122D\WDMMDM0) The surrounding entries relate to Modem files. There is no error message during step by step boot. All the .vxd files are loaded smoothly. I have re-run the setup of modem drivers but no luck to the missing file. Windows update is not picking any missing driver. Is there anyway to find/check the missing file? Tag: Ad-aware Definition File Update [SE1R108] 17.05.06 Tag: 281172

    - 3 CD/DVD Drives not playing/burning CDs/DVDs Hi. Hope someone can help me. I'm having problems with my CD/DVD drives playing and burning CDs/DVDs. I've got; 1 CD writer (internal) 1 DVD player (internal) 1 DVD writer (external) I wanted to extract a .wav file from some CDs to make a compilation of my own music. I've done it 100 times before. I normally use Nero 6. This displayed some files missing. So I went through the Nero troubleshooter and followed all instructions. It didn't solve my problem. I decided to use another software extractor. This also didn't work. I then tried to play the CD with Windows Media Player. This didn't work. I tried various CDs in my 3 different drives and they all didn't work. If I double-click on a CD the following is displayed: "Windows Media Player cannot find the specifed file. Be sure the path is typed correctly. If it is, the file does not exist at the specified location, or the computer where the file is stored offline." If I right-click and then "Open" and double-click one of the tracks that is displayed the following is displayed: "Windows Media Player encountered an error when reading the CD-ROM drive in digital mode. Click OK to switch to analog mode. Click Cancel to retry in digital mode" I've clicked OK and Cancel but nothing works. This is the same for all 3 drives (2 internal and 1 external) The thing is, the track and artist information is being dispalyed correctly so windows is registering the disc. When I tried to burn a CD/DVD my software is informing me that there are no drives! I even tried removing one of the internal drives in the device manager and rebooted. The drive is back but has made no difference to my problem. Everything was absolutely fine before I went a way for a short break. No-one has been here to use the PC while I've been away. This couldn't have happened at a worse time. I've got my final project to hand in at college soon and no-way of getting the information onto discs! I believe this is a Windows OS problem. I don't believe that all 3 drives have packed up at once. Can anybody help me? Please. Tag: Ad-aware Definition File Update [SE1R108] 17.05.06 Tag: 281171

    - I have some questions. Hello, I am using windows ME OS. Now that microsoft is taking its old junkies to scrapyard, i thought it better to ask. Why isn't there any aministration tools provided in windowsME OS like the ones(i read in a book) with windows2000. There is no aministrative control which i can look forward to, this thought came over when i found out that there was no 'folder options' icon in my control panel. Even when i clicked one of its links provided(in help section), it said- 'this requisite is restricted, please contact your system administrator.' In windows2000 there are administrative tools, which work with co-accordance with Microsoft Management Console(which surprisingly is provided in winME). Is there any third-party programs (downloadable from internet) which give benefits like system policy editor, admin control and rights etc etc. just like found on winNT and win2000; which then could be gathered in MMC? One more thing i wanted to ask - there is a folder provided in operating system cds named as 'tools'. Which mainly contains the system policy editor. But unfortunately the cd of ME OS which i have at home does not contain that, so is there any website including microsoft which provides a downloadable 'tools' folder? Any solutions? --------------- phantom Tag: Ad-aware Definition File Update [SE1R108] 17.05.06 Tag: 281163

    - Which Direct X ? How do I get Windows ME to tell me what version of Direct X is installed? And, if you happen to know, how do I get the same info from Windows XP?
