Can't get past Windows Me start up window Windows begins to load but goes to start up window with message:Warning Windows didn't finish loading on previous attempt, choose safe mode to start w/minimal drivers.

    - Help-can't get past Windows start up menu Don't know what happened. Windows begins to load but goes to Start up menu-says: did not finish loading on previous attempt-choose safe mode to start with minimal set of drivers. No matter what I enter, (normal, safe mode) it starts to load but ends up there again. Have tried various 'step-by-step-confirmation' choices (just guessing what to choose) but still same results. Used Start up floppy, scanreg=no problems found. Didn't surface scan because I read a post that said this might cause loss of information. Any suggestions please? pak Tag: Help!

    - insufficient memory My computer ( Compaq Athlon 1.4, 1 Gig of memory) freezes after starting to use almost any software. Not enough conventional memory to proceed please close other programs and retry. I am not running any others and my system performance is at 94%. The monitor freezes or goes blue screen. I cannot reboot with restart or shut down from the start menu and have to cold boot by pressing the main switch. I have scanned and defragged apparently way too often in the past two years (daily). I have now drawn a black screen and can barely get started with the boot up floopy disc. I have no viruses according to AVG free antivirus software. It seems my alternatives are the restore to factory disc pack that comes with the factory Compaq instead of a milleniu disk which I also now have but will not overwrite because of the memory problem. Or install an new harddrive and operating system. Any suggestions or questions thanks Mitch Tag: Help! Can't get beyond Windows Me start up menu Tag: 254941

    - freezing from insufficient memory Compaq 1.4MGH, 1 gig of ram, Windows ME After a fresh start up with a system performance at 94% my computer now freezes after opening as little as MY COMPUTER. I tried to rerun ME to freshen up my system but get the warning message Insufficient conventional memory to run this program. try shuting down other programs to free up some. There is nothing else running including antivirus or firewall. I have to cold boot to restart because start/restart or start/shutdown does not work. I have been getting a black screen with inproper start up and had to resort to the boot up disk to restart which also failed sometimes. I feel it is my western harddrive failing after so many blue screens in the past two years. I ran the free avg updated virus software and it says no viruses. I have been running diskscan and defrag too regularly almost daily for a long time thinking that was a good thing. I could do a thorough scan in an hour instead of 14 hours when I first bought the computer. I am about to use the restore disks from Compaq which will wipe out many unreplaceable software programs and return to factory condition or put in a new hard drive. Ring a bell with any of you pros. thanks Tag: Help! Can't get beyond Windows Me start up menu Tag: 254939

    - VMM32.VXD and no disk I was finally getting around to copying some files from my old tower for transfer. In the midst of it my computer(hp xg833) shut down. When it came up, it didn't load fully. It said file missing-vmm32.vxd and I couldn't get the computer started up in any mode. I went to find the start-up disk for my computer and it had apparently been broken in the move a year and a half ago. I am now trying to find either a solution that does not require the disk or a fresh copy of my start up disk. When I contacted HP they bounced me back to Microsoft. Thank you in advance for any help.

The computer recognizes that I have extra memory, but I don't know why it doesn't seem to be helping. Tag: Help! Can't get beyond Windows Me start up menu Tag: 254875

    - Ping! Silj, and others, regarding adware detection applications My wife, bless her little heart, found this report on adware detection and removal applications (http://www.adwarereport.com/mt/archives/000004.html) during her surfing the internet recently. She believes that we may want to invest in one of the more highly rated ones (we both have Ad-aware SE and SpyBot S&D on our machines) as she was concerned with the figures given by this site in their performance. I'm not familiar with any of the other applications, nor can I recall reading anything in here or others groups regarding them, so I'd like to get some opinions/advice before making a decision to "upgrade" to a different adware killer. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated. Marty who likes free stuff that works well!! Tag: Help! Can't get beyond Windows Me start up menu Tag: 254871

    - "Explorer has caused an error in GDI32.DLL." X-No-archive: yes Hello, After I use Yahoo Messenger and try to access anything via the start menu or within folders on the desktop, I get the following error: "Explorer has caused an error in GDI32.DLL. Explorer will now close. If you continue to experience problems, try restarting your computer." My OS is Windows ME, obviously ;) I am getting tired of restarting my pc several times a day. Now, I've been in touch with Yahoo Tech Support, but they claim they are aware of the problem, but don't yet have a fix. I have to use Yahoo Messenger for work, although I suggested they look into Trillian. So, I'm trying to see if I can fix this from the other end, by dealing with the OS. Any comments or suggestions would be most appreciated. TIA. Tag: Help! Can't get beyond Windows Me start up menu Tag: 254849

    - Many errors... One solution? I own a Dell laptop (specs follow) that connects through a networked DSL modem. I am using it right now, in fact. A few weeks ago, the computer was suddenly infected with spyware after my son installed Gnutella lite on it. as if uninstalling three searchbars and 93 data miners wasn't enough, they (I suppose) caused my linksys WPC54G wireless network card to go haywire, disconnecting me from the network for two weeks before I was able to set it straight. But even now, it is still not working correctly, as the configuration utility is seeming to not want to communicate to the card, even after multiple reinstallations. Added on to that, multiple system DLLs have been corrupted or something, since the Open/Save/Print dialog box is not opening and explorer(AKA to all the techies as the Shell) is freezing every so often upon startup. Does anyone know how to fix this? Tag: Help! Can't get beyond Windows Me start up menu Tag: 254831

    - DEFRAG00203 What does this mean? I have Win Me, fully updated. During the last defrag, it stopped and a box displaying this notice number appeared. It said there was a problem and could not continue, try ScanDisk. I searched the Microsoft knowledge base with that number and found nothing. Sequence of events. The computer hanged in the last stages of a normal shut down. I then performed maintenance is safe mode. Just before I did defrag, I did the regular ScanDisk and it found an error in the boot record and fixed it. After the defrag problem I ran ScanDisk twice, regular and thorough and neither one found problems. Defrag still gives this notice. My harddrive is partitioned into C,D, and E drives. ScanDisk and defrag performed normally on C and E. D drive had the problem described above. Can anyone help me with this problem? Thanks Scott Los Angeles Tag: Help!

Have searched without success, in the Windows ME support section, for the following missing driver - C:\WINDOWS\BXXS5.DLL I have the original disks for Win98 and ME upgrade - but am presently on the road - the discs are at home. My computer still operates but this problem recurs everytime I open the computer, and I can't seem to figure out where to get the missing DLL to reload into my computer.
