    - Shutdown? Nope, reboot! Ok, now here's an interesting question for all you kind souls out there! After having all 4 versions of the Dyfica (sp?) virus get together and beat the hell out of my poor Win. ME, we needed a full reinstall of Windows to get it up and running again. System Recovery didn't want to know! Although the PC works now (or I wouldn't be typing this... :o) ) when I go to Shut Down the PC, instead of it coming up in the orange "It is now safe to turn off your computer", it reboots the PC as though you just turned the PC on! No system conflicts as I can see from the devices inside, so can anyone help me? Btw, I've also reformatted the HDD twice tonight and it's still having no effect...! Tag: Codebase error Tag: 215215

    - Lost restore points w/setting in AVG Hi all - AVG 6.0 I am having a problem with losing all restore points, and my system crashing after enabling a setting in AVG 6.0 In the E-mail section of the AVG there is a selection for OE 5 Plugin, and when I select this when Windows is loaded, I have a problem with opening the Delete Box. It just hangs, and I have to shut down using the power on/off button. Then, when I start up again, Windows will load but hangs at the desktop, and when I try to shut down with ctrl-alt-del the system goes to the blue screen and I have to shut down using the power on/off button. I started the system up in Safe Mode, and tried to do a System Restore, but, there were no restore points, not even the one I set yesterday afternoon, and even though the disable restore was not checked. I was able to open the AVG Control Center and uncheck the OE 5 Plugin and then reboot. The system came up find and all is working ok now, but, still no restore points, even though I have set a new one since the reboot, it is not there now. I would truly appreciate it if someone could provide me with a website or KB information that might address this problem so that I can perhaps have a better idea of where and how to troubleshoot this problem, or find a resolution. Best regards, Jan :) Tag: Codebase error Tag: 215202

    - Err Msg: Shell32.DLL Miscrosoft Internet Explorer seemed to not recognize an internet connection when there was one. So, I tried many things, but I finally decided to try uninstalling it and reinstalling it. Well, after I did that and tried restarting my computer again, it tells me that "a required .DLL file, C:\Windows\System\Shell32.DLL, was not found." It will not load all of the way. I have Windows ME but have found a code to try typing in in the Command Prompt Only. I had to put in my QuickRestore cd to get the Command Prompt to come up, but the code I have is for Windows 95 and my QuickRestore cd is for 98. WHAT DO I DO?!?!? I can't even get loaded enough to reinstall Windows. Plus, won't I lose all my saved info if I do that?!??!! Help please!!!! Emily Tag: Codebase error Tag: 215198

    - Update ME error!! OS lost afterwards! 2 weeks ago I updated the critical updates from microsoft site (including IE updates). upon restart I got errors and the IE kept hanging, so I went to Control Panel and deleted the new application downloads including the new IE. Upon reboot this time the system said there were errors and was going to reconfigure or something to a previous good configuration. Now when I start my computer, the Windows ME screen comes on and looks like everything loads properly, but I get to the windows interface and the blue background comes up on the screen but nothing else is shown. When I hit CTRL+ALT+DEL only one program is listed (unlike before when I remember lots listed). I can't do anything else, just a blue background on the screen and nothing else, and the only function available is the keyboard shortcut for CTRL+ALT+DEL. How can I recover from this disaster? Help please!! I also thought I could just upgrade to XP professional, but when I put the CD into the CD drive and turned on my computer it does the same thing and goes to the blue screen. Is it possible to do something during start-up and just have it boot from CD and upgrad to XP so I don't lose any of my data that's already in my computer? Any suggestions on how to recover my data and system would help, Thanks!!!! Tag: Codebase error Tag: 215179

I went into windows help to find out how to compress a file and it suggested that I go into My Computer and select the drive I want to create a compression folder in. Then it says to choose new from the file menu and then click compression folder. When I get to this menu there is no option to choose compression folder, only Folder and Shortcut.

    - May Be OT Problem, But I'm Going To Try Anyway. (I'm only posting this after a number of unsatisfactory emails from NTI support; those kind of emails that treat users like idiots and don't address the questions asked.) I'm running Windows ME with NTI CD Maker Software. Since I began using this burning software, it has been bullet proof. Over the past year, they've had several updates, all of which have worked without problems. And now, their latest update gives me this message after install and won't run. 'The CDMkr32.exe is linked to missing export SKINDIALOG.DLL:SetSkinIniFile.' First, the file mentioned above is not 'missing'; it is in the folder where it should be. NTI sent me another copy of the file, but this didn't change anything. This file is also present (same version) in all previous versions of NTI CD Maker. I've even tried installing the software in C:, rather than the Program Files Folder, but the second update doesn't give an option as to where you want it installed and goes ahead and uninstalls the program in C: and puts it in Program Files, so, that didn't work. I've gone through several install cycles, including disabling all running programs. My suspicion is that it is an NTI problem, (given how reluctant software producers are to admit they have a problem) but if anyone has an idea that the problem could reside in Windows, or my system, I'm wide open for suggestions. Thanks for taking the time to read this rather long post, but I would really appreciate any suggestions, no matter how wild they may be. (I can run the program without the update, but the problem is NTI has not been forthcoming as to the reason for the update.) Tag: Codebase error Tag: 215160

    - Hibernation My computer doesn't seem to want to go into hibernation. The screen goes black but the computer itself never completely goes off. I think it might have something to do with my mouse. It's a "IntelliMouse" from Microsoft. The red light stays on, as does the computer. When you move the mouse and the screen reapears from black, the cursor is very slow and whatever programs you click load slow as well. I can't shut down or restart my computer anymore either. The screen makes the noise it has always done when clicking restart/shut down, but then the cursor and computer freeze when it gets to the light blue screen, and you have to just turn off the monitor. Is it indeed my mouse that is causing the trouble or something else? Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated. Tag: Codebase error Tag: 215152

    - windows me errors Hi, my wife and I recently upgraded from our emachines 600is to a much newer model. When I went to get some files off our old computer, it won't boot up anymore when it worked ok before it sat idle for a week. When I try to turn it on, it starts booting, but then I get a message that reads 'cmdninst has caused an error in sysdm.cpl'. After I hit close, I get an error that reads 'msgsrv32 has caused an error in setupx.dll'. After that, it just stops booting and stays in the wallpaper screen. Anyone have any ideas?

    - Regedit/SysEdit/MSconfig Here's what's happening. I am trying to troubleshoot my pc, but I can't troubleshoot when I can't access any programs. The Issue: Whenever I go to to the "run" command under the start menu and type in any of the following, "regedit", "sysedit" or "msconfig" the computer acts like it is about to open them up and then simply doesn't open it, or opens one of them up but closes it immediately. I can't gain access to any of these tools. Any suggestions on how to fix this problem would be deeply appreciated. Tag: Codebase error Tag: 215145

    - MyDocs.dll Anybody have an idea why all my net apps are trying to use the above file for accessing the internet? Info goes off to a site seemingly owned in Canada (Alberta) although the address info is hokey when I looked it up: it listed a suite in the CN tower, which is in Toronto last time I looked, and houses no businesses I'm aware of. This happens with Xnews, Outlook, Opera, Mozilla. Did full scans with AVG, Spybot, AdAware, And online scanners at Symantec and Panda, and a DOS disk. Nothing, all clean. Outgoing ports are 1294, 1296, 1298 TCP. This doesn't happen on the 2k or BSD boxes here. I googled it to death but no usable info. -- "Time will bring to light whatever is hidden; it will cover up and conceal what is now shining in splendor." Horace (65 - 8 BC); Roman poet.
