    - Having Serious Problem - PLEASE HELP!! I recently am facing a SEVERE problem with my Windows. I run Windows ME on a Compaq PC, have been for the last 2.5 years. My problem is that whenever I try to install a program, the following is said: "(Program) has caused an error in <unknown>. (Program) will now close. If you have any problems, please restart your computer" I became aware of this problem about a week ago when I tried to update my MSN messenger. And not only that, but NONE of any new programs will install. Always, there is an error in "<unknown>" . I am desperate, as I do not want to format my harddrive (have lots of important files there) and I have done everything in my power to correct it. I just simply cannot seem to correct that problem. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Help Me, as I am SEVERELY Desperate!! :( ANY HELP would be HIGHLY appreciated! P.S. When I tried to install MSN Messenger 6.1, it said that "BOOTSTRAP has caused an error in <unknown>" .. I tried lookingfor 'Bootstrap' all over my computer, but can't seem to find anything like that. Please, help! :( Tag: Outlook Express Tag: 237706

    - AOL Hi, I posted a question concerning aol on the 16th of this month, saying that I was having problems with aol broadband. I am still unable to connect to the internet via my aol broadband modem, (the modem is a BT Voyager 100). I have contacted aol helpline numerous times with regards to this issue, and following todays conversation with them, I have now been told that there may be a problem with my windows installer, and that I should repair this. Unfortunatly, the person I was speaking to was not very clear on how I should go about doing this. What I would like to know is, how do I repair this, I am a complete novice when it comes to computers, and would really appreciate any help. Thanks, Don. Tag: Outlook Express Tag: 237699

    - Mouse problem Hi: I have a mouse problem with my Compaq Presario Win 98ME, I had to run the restored disk and the restore installed with no problems, I loaded Norton antivirus 2004 and MSN9, I updated Norton antivirus and ran a system scan with no problem. But when I started downloading Windows updates one at a time with a restart after each install, after about the fourth update the computer rebooted to the desktop and my mouse froze in the middle of the screen, is there a way to get the mouse to thaw without doing a system restore again.

    - Best Registry Cleaner? My computer has been in constant use for over 3 years. I know that the registry **has** to be bloated. I have read that some registry cleaners end up deleted needed entries, and you end up with unwanted problems. At the same time, I have read that the current crop of registry cleaners are better at doing their intended job of routing out duplicated and outdated entries. Yet, I don't know which one is really considered as being the "best." I know that I should first back up the registry before running the utility, and also to create a fresh restore point just prior to the sweep. Main Question-- which of the registry cleaners do YOU think is best ?? Thanks for any further input and ideas !! --James-- Tag: Outlook Express Tag: 237673

    - removing persistent virus damage test posted to help group microsoft.public.windowsme.general: I have a pc with damage from viruses. I have Norton Antivirus with current definitions, but it does not detect the viruses sdware.ncase and adware.bookedspace. I printed the instructions from Symantec, and manually removed these viruses, but they keep recurring. My Windows version is ME, and my IE version is 6.0.2800.1106. When I first restart the system, I get an error "rundll has caused an error in mmsystem.dll. rundll will now close. if you continue to experience problems, try restarting your computer." Also, I cannot print to a network printer from any programs or to print a test page. When I try to go to start/setting/printers, and select the printer, I get the same error I did on startup ["rundll has caused an error in mmsystem.dll. rundll will now close. if you continue to experience problems, try restarting your computer."] if I try a second time, then I get the properties box, where I can click to print a test page, and then I get an error, "Windows was unable to print the test page. Would you like to begin troubleshooting now?" Troubleshooter is unable to resolve the problem. Also, in IE, I keep getting an unwated search bar poping up. I can turn it off by going to view, and toolbars, but there is no name for it. I just click to uncheck the blank space, and this searchbar goes away. Also, my default home page keeps resetting to http://www.i-lookup.com, no matter how many times I reset it. Also, I tried to add this page to tools/internet options/security/restricted sites, but It will not allow it, saying it is already on another zone, which it is not, visibly.

    - _restore file Hopefully someone in this forum can help me with this problem. I recently got an anti-virus program. It found 26 viruses on my computer and eliminated 3 of them. The other 23 are in the file \_restore on my computer. It cannot eliminate these files because as you all know, they are 'system' files which cannot be deleted. The only way I can see to delete these files is to delete the entire file. Is there a way to do this? I've tried everything I can think of but to no avail. Can anyone help me here? Thanks a lot for reading this and I hope someone can help me. Respectfully, Lynn Tomlinson Tag: Outlook Express Tag: 237622

    - .tmp files NOT in Windows\TEMP Folder....OK to Delete? When I do a search for files on my PC by entering .tmp or .TMP , the search brings up over 3,600 files with the extension .tmp or .TMP. Most of these are in C:\\Windows. Othere are in C:\\Windows\System They are not in C:Windows\TEMP folder, however. So I'm wondering how safe it is to delete ALL of these? Many of them have long odd filenames such as : fffe73e9_{A3D4287C-53F7-4745-A98A-3C3C6D2317A3}.tmp Aside form the practical question about deleting all these, I'm also curious as to what they are.

The problem seemed to get much worse over the past week or so. My biggest problem at this point is that my computer continually freezes up while I am online. It usually happens when I am trying to move to a new location. I get many error "boxes". 1. "WJ view "system could not find file" This pops up every time I start my computer. 2. "DW caused an error in DW.EXE. DW will now close" Also every time I start up. 3. "/explore error in USER.EXE." I ran updated virus check and my computer looks clean??
