    - Gnarly error at boot up Hello: Hoping someone can help me diagnose this error and offer a fix. When I boot my Sony VAIO notebook running WinME, part way through boot up the Windows ME splash screen goes black, then I get a blue screen saying an error has occurred. The error message is: File Name: Ds1(01) + 0000D9C2 Error: 0E : 0028 : FF0A8AE2 At this point, my machine is hung and CTRL+ALT+DEL does not work. If I do a hard reboot at this point, I can load into Safe Mode, but my USB port appears dead, so my USB CDROM and floppy drives don't work. Any ideas on source of problem &/or how to fix this? I'd really appreciate a reply to my email (crm0627@yahoo.com) as well as to the newsgroup. Thanks a lot, -Craig Tag: NetMeeting 3.01 Tag: 209661

    - Registry Maintenance Do scanreg /opt and scanreg /fix perform the same functions -- deleting broken links, etc. -- as the third-party registry editors such as System Suite and Norton? What are other scanreg command options? Thank you. Phil Maggitti Tag: NetMeeting 3.01 Tag: 209660

    - Out of Memory In fact this problem is the same under WINDOWS95, WINDOWS88SE and WINDOWSME. I have three locally networked systems running under each of these OSs in my little home office. They are connected in a TCP/IP network on an ETHERNET hub with DHCP services provided by an ADSL router on the same hub (this LAN works fine, so does the DSL link). On each system I have a problem running any additional programs when OUTLOOK and IE have been started. It takes different forms, among which: - program does not load citing "insufficient memory" - program refuses to go into specific routines citing "insufficient memory" - program or computer stops responding - the system bluescreens on me - system asks to close tasks because of low memory - in WORD the spell checker does not want to run due to insufficient memory - monitoring software shows very low or zero available memory Physical memory is 320M on W95, 256M on W98SE and 128M on WME (so sufficient in each instance). On top of that I have fixed but VERY LIBERAL virtual memory settings on each system, and I thought this extension would be exploited whenever RAM runs low (of course to the detriment of speed, but without problems). The same software shows very low virtual memory usage (typically far below 10%) I do have some background tasks always active (NORTON AntiVirus AutoProtect, SYGATE FireWall), but again, if in doubt I thought virtual memory would take the burden. I even have a very small program I would like to stay resident (CHRONOGRAPH, picking up an atomic clock signal every hour), but have taken out because it disables the running of more immediate and important tasks. Anybody out there who can - explain this behaviour - possibly suggest a fix Actually I thought MS would be the right source, but they insist on a paid support contract before wanting to speak to me at all and the knowledge base does not help me either. Looking forward to your responses, with my best regards and gratitude for your trouble, Willem Tag: NetMeeting 3.01 Tag: 209657

    - No middle ground. I have a program that will only display in the Maximized setting even though it used to display the re-sizable windows. I can Minimize it, but when I right-click the icon, Restore is no longer an option, only Maximize. Conversely, when it is Maximized, the Restore button (mid upper-right windows button) no longer works, only Minimize. I was told that this is a known glitch and there is a fix (adjusting something in the registry) but I could not locate it in the Knowledge Base. Can anyone help? Tag: NetMeeting 3.01 Tag: 209645

    - Modem problem I have Norton Antivirus and I havn't been able to use the Symantec live update for a lonng time. It says my dial up info is wrong but I dont even have dial up anymore. I have a Toshiba Cable Modem. I went to control panel/modems and deleted the 56k info and went to set up cable but I don't know what to do exactly. Your supposed to pick the modems company but toshiba isn't there. Then you pick the speed which i don't know where to find. I also tried putting in the cable install disk and I clicked on "Have Disk" but that didn't work either. Please help. Thanks. Tag: NetMeeting 3.01 Tag: 209617

    - Windows Explorer - Folder Pane Missing I recently had a problem starting Windows ME so used scandisk to detect and fix some problems. Then I restored my system back to the previous day. When I was done all of that I was able to successfully start ME. However, since then, when I open up Windows Explorer I don't get the folders displayed on the left hand side of the window. An empty pane is displyed with just an X in the top right hand corner of the pane, which allows me to close the left pane. Then the window just looks like the "My Computer" window. I tried the Menu options, i.e., View, Explorer Bar, Folders. That didn't change anything. Any tips or tricks on how to recover the folder pane in Windows Explorer? Tag: NetMeeting 3.01 Tag: 209609

    - Explorer has caused an error in kernel32.dll Whenever I am on Internet Explorer for a little while, I get an error message that reads "Explorer has caused an error in Kernel32.dll. This program will now close." Once I attempt to close Internet Explorer, the computer freezes and the only way I can exit IE is to end task in the close program box. It usually happens when I click on the Favorites option in the toolbar or when I click on the address bar, and once when I right clicked on something. This only occurs when I am online through Internet Explorer. I have searched and read several forums, but people have too many varying solutions, therefore I am unsure as to which one I should attempt. I hope someone has a solution to this most irritating problem, and thank you in advance. PS- I tried updating all of the ActiveX controls and Internet Explore itself, didn't help.

    - Runtime Error I've been getting Runtime Errors . The first time I recieved the error was when I opened a folder that had the picture preview custimization. I set all my folders to standard view which I don't necessarily like but to fix the immediate problem it helped. But then while surfing the internet today. I got two Runtime errors, I didn't see a common issue between the two sites. Is there a fix for this? There is a critical update available for WinME but I've installed it several times and it still appears. It installed successfully every time. Its the Q329414: Security Update (MDAC 2.1) update.

    - Lost icons after installing download from Man U pages I had a call from a friend who has a computer running WindowsME. While she was out her son visited Man U. web site and downloaded and installed something. From what she says it sounds like it would have been a wallpaper. Now whenever she starts the PC she cannot see all her icons. From what she describes part of the screen is taken up by a picture (or part of a picture) of a Man U shirt. The "Start" button does nothing at all. When she tries to open "My documents" or "My computer", icons for which are still visible, she gets an error message which goes something like "Security settings prohibit running Active X". This is making it difficult for her to track down the problem. Sorry to be so vague but I haven't seen this myself, she's hundereds of miles away and I'm finding it difficult to get really clear descriptions from her. Also I'm not very familiar with ME as all my PCs are on Windows 2000. I'm hoping someone else out there has seen this sort of problem and can tell us how to fix it...

    - Explorer has caused an error in MSHTML.DLL (after load AdAware) Running Win ME on Dell Dimension system. Last night I downloaded, installed, & ran free version of AdAware which was available through AOL. When it completed, there was an error message in pop-up window which ties up the system. The error recurs when I reboot. The error window says: "Explorer has caused an error in MSHTML.DLL. Explorer will now close. If you continue to experience problems, try restarting your computer." When I click "close" button in the pop-up error message window, the window disappears, then reappears in about a second. I can't do anything else but repeatedly close the error window which then reappears. If I'm quick with my fingers I can Ctrl-Alt-Del before the error recurs, and from there power down. When system reboots, same error recurs, after ScanDisk completes its run. I searched Microsoft WinME support site and Lavasoft (maker of AdAware) site for help but couldn't find anything relevant.

    - startup failing after install I've got a new to me but used HP running Windows ME. It didnt come with a disk for ME. I've been having various problems, like Windows Update will not work. It fails with error 0x800A138F, despite trying everything on this <a href=http://www.updatexp.com/0x800A138F.html target=_blank>page</a>. I tried downloading updates manually but some of them wont install. they start to and then need the computer to reboot before they can finsh. after reboot, but before windows starts, it errors out saying that it couldnt proceed from 1% to 2%. hitting return continues loading windows normally but the update never takes. I have also been unable to upgrade directx, it fails almost immmediately after unpacking the files saying Directx couldnt load a file (doesnt specify which)and the install will shutdown. So earlier tonight I found the CAB directory on ME and decided it would be a good idea to run Setup, thinking that whatever is causing the problem might be overwritten in the process. Windows started to install itself but on reboot got stuck with the same error about not being able to move on from 1% to 2%, push any key to continue. Only this time, after pushing a key, I get the same error message over and over, it doesnt load. I'm stuck at this point. I tried F8, step-by-step confirm, safe mode, etc. but I always get stuck at the same part. Right now i'm booting off my old drive (I can get to setup) which has 98 on it, so I'm able to get to the drive that has ME on it, I just cant boot from it. Anyone up? I'd really appreciate any suggestions anyone could offer. Tag: NetMeeting 3.01 Tag: 209470

    - Hackers Secret Weapons - Virtual Private Networks For one, if your on a Windows Platform and you didn't disable a number of services which are enabled by default, including file and print sharing, the chances of your computer being hacked/owned are very high. Also, if you haven?t secured your browser or e-mail programs this can cause your computer to be hacked/owned. Not disabling these services and not having a firewall or anti-virus program from the beginning of your computer going on the internet, is a loss cause. Backdoors and Trojan Horses disable your anti-virus and firewalls. So checking for open ports no matter where you go or how you test your ports will not give you accurate results. GRC shields-up has on one occasion showed my computer as having port 110 open. The reason for this is because a malicious hacker was using my e-mail application at the time my computer was checked for open ports. If your on a Windows Platform (minus XP and NT), select Start, Settings, Control Panel, Folder Options, View and make sure you select and have a dot in the circle where it says Show Hidden Files and Folders. Select Start, Control Panel, Network, and if you see two AOL adapters, two TCP/IP, two dial-up adapters, one or two Virtual Private Network adapters your computer has what hackers install called a Virtual Private Network, BEWARE! If you find your system re-boots itself from time to time, this is another sign that an Administrator (hacker) has to update your hacked system. Select Start, type regedit, select Registry, Export Registry, and in the box type say 3-12-02.txt and say OK. Then open this file with a text editor or word application and you might be "shocked" to find what really is installed on your system. Check the bottom of this file, since hackers love to install a bunch of their crap here. What these hackers do is disable your anti-virus program using Trojan Horses, which makes checking for viruses or trojans useless. If running a software firewall, the hackers install another version of what your running and program it so you aren't able to see their activities. Once these factors take into play, the best bet to keep the hackers out of your system is to perform the below. My suggestion would be to keep the hard drive (sent it to the FBI, minus your personal files). Or make a copy of your entire hard drive, this way if the hackers have destroyed any system using your computer, at least you have evidence if the FBI ever come knock on your door. The Trackers would like a copy, but that's another story in itself. You might want to format the hard drive, install from CD-ROM only and obtain a free port scanner for your operating system. You can download one from zdnet.com, and before you go online, port scan your own computer to check for any open ports. Backdoors, Trojan Horses and Viruses are not the consideration you need to be concerned with when your system is hacked. Your system can also be running a Proxy Server, NNTP Server, SMTP Server, Web Server, SQL Server and a Virtual Private Network. All of these factors need to be taken into consideration. Tracker The Best Kept Secrets of Backdoors, Cracking, Firewalls, Hacking, Proxies, The Internet, Trojan Horses, Virtual Private Networks, Virus, Windows and different types of Servers can be found at: http://geocities.com/secure2003222000 Tag: NetMeeting 3.01 Tag: 209469
