    - Hibernate Message at Boot My son-in-law booted my computer in the wee hours of Xmas morning. Not being used to my computer I think he must have tapped the power button on my Dell rather than firmly pushing it in and holding it for a second. He left town before I discovered this. Anyway -- the next morning when I tried to boot my machine I get the message:" previous resume from hibernate failed. Do you want to try again (y - yes - N -no) etc. I hit the Y and it loads windows and all is well. This same message appears every morning now when I boot. I never use Hibernate -- In Display Properties Settings I have it set at System Hibernates: NEVER In my help section on hibernate it says to tap the power button to come out of hibernate. I think when he booted by just tapping the button that is when this message came up -- at least I think that is what he did. How do I get rid of this annoying message? and get past having to hit the (Y - yes) to load windows every day. Thanks, Brenda Tag: Open Window Limit Tag: 224192

    - apps.inf/misc. questions Has anyone had any problems with a "box" coming up telling you to install APPS.INF from Windows Setup into Windows.INF folder?? I've been getting this error! My big problem is that IN WINDOWS my CD drives have disappeared. And I can't get to the file on the CD! The computer recognizes the drive if I boot from a floppy setup disk. I'm stumped. It's an old machine, but I was going to try to keep it going for another year. I've bought a new LAPTOP on XP, but since this machine is 6 years old, I didn't want to change operating systems and am sticking with ME. Anyone that can help, please email me! THANKS!

    - startup stops short of displaying desktop Over X-mas I was downloading some windows updates for my mom's computer. One of the updates was for explorer. While it was downloading i left and came back to find an error message for a "rundll.dll" file and now when it boots it shows the desktop background but no icons or taskbar. There is no sytem restore to go back to, nor was there a startup disk ever made. Starting in safe mode has the same results. changing the boot order so it boots from the cd-rom drive with the ME cd in has the same results as well. I need to get this system up and running again asap. any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanx Tag: Open Window Limit Tag: 224096

    - Dll errors/Explorer default page and win min Someone suggested my computer may have been hit with a "virus". I don't know. But whatever happened, except for these problems I have isolated, everything seems to be O.K. I am using Windows ME. I get two rundll error windows when boots up: C:\windows\system\msconfd.dll A dynamic link library (dll) initialization routine failed. C:\windows\system msconfd.dll A dynamic link library (dll) initializiation routine failed. I think these two errors have to do with windows linking to other programs I have on the computer, but this is just a guess and I don't know what programs they are, or how to correct this. Also, in Windows Explorer, my default home page keeps changing to http://just.finditnow.com/. The internet options screen will let me change it to, for example, Yahoo. But, when I exit explorer and reboot, it automatically defaults back to http://just.finditnow.com/. My third and final problem is when I close windows I get the pop-up screen that win min is not responding; do I want to wait, cancel, etc. What is win min and how can I correct this. All of this happened at the same time a couple of weeks ago. Tag: Open Window Limit Tag: 224076

What does Task Manager have to say about that? (CTRL-ALT-DEL)

Such errors are often caused by spyware - download AdAware from
www.lavasoftusa.com, install, update, and run it to remove spyware, adware,
and other such nasties from your system.
