    - Applicatioins stall regularly I am running ME on a PII 266 with 196Mg of RAM and I regularly have applications (word, IE6 etc) stall for about 30 seconds every 5 mins or so. I have cleaned out all spyware/adware and updated everything but nothing working. Any suggestions? Also, how do I get the list of running processes to come up?

    - DESPERATE-C & A drives assigned to use DOS Today, while running a Windows version of a software I have in DOS, too, I tried to open the DOS version and it asked me which one do I want to use because they conflict. I chose DOS. Now, I can't get into my computer in Normal Mode. When I try, I get the error message: Windows Protection Error. System Halted. If I go to Control Panel, System, Peformance tab, there is a box telling me there is a compatibility paging issue. It states that the C & A drives are both using an MS-DOS compatibility mode file system. There is no access to my computer except through the Safe mode. I have tried everything from System Restore, to clean booting, and even disabling the protection modes in the advanced tab of my Systems. I don't know what else to do. I have looked through the articles listed on Microsoft, as well as Dell (it is a Dell comp.) and I am desperate to try something to get my computer to recognize it should be a Windows OS. Please offer any suggestions. Thank you so much. Tag: Rundll error Tag: 229361

    - Resources/Mouse Question When I start my Windows ME machine I am at the 80% resource level. I think I have taken all I can out of startup using msconfig but I have a Logitech optical mouse, Avast! anti-virus, Internet Call Waiting and Adaptec cd which are so integral I need them there. And I have visited the normal sites for help in minimizing start up programs. After I have been on the web for two or three hours, using IE 5.5, my resource level drops to the 60% area, with no programs running. At that point the mouse cursor cannot quickly follow the mouse movement, to the point where it is annoying. Below 60% resource level, say at the 55% level, the cursor delay is really impossible, requiring a reboot. Is there anything that can be done about this in Windows ME besides starting at a higher resource level, by deleting more start-up auto-run programs and thus prolonging the time to reboot?

    - screen options i have a problem when i try to modify the screen options (right clik on desktop/properties). a pop up window teels me that the "admisnistrator has deactivated the access to the screen options" or something similar. it is very strange, since i have not multiple users in this computer, and it never happened before. is there a fast solution (delete the other users and work always as administrator?)?? maybe it could be a virus?

    - My computer freezes since uninstalling AVG 6.0 Please Help! I downloaded AVG 6.0 (Anti-virus) several months ago, but after downloading the latest update last week, and rebooting, a message popped up saying something to the effect of "Couldn't upgrade 0% to 1%" "Press any key to attempt to load Windows". And since then, my computer would sporadically freeze up while I was using WindowsME. Since it was basically useless without updating, I uninstalled AVG today. After I uninstalled, my computer rebooted automatically; an error message popped up saying "Explorer has caused an error in GDI.exe, Explorer will now close" then it crashed. And now my computer freezes every time I use it! Here are a few of the things that have led to my computer freezing when I tried to use them since uninstalling AVG 6: Winamp AOL (4 times) Spybot - Search and Destroy GetRight (twice) And when I click the button to restore my active Desktop wallpaper it's an automatic freeze everytime. AOL works roughly every 3 times I try it. If nothing else causes it to freeze, shutting my computer down will. I'm using a Compaq Presario 5WV271 with a 900MHz Athlon processor, 64MB memory, 40GB HD, and 8MB Nvidia TNT2 Graphics. Does anyone know of anything that could help this problem? This is my only computer, and I'm kind of desperate. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Tag: Rundll error Tag: 229291

    - IE 6.0 update not installing I downloaded the Internet Explorer 6.0 Service Pak to install on Me system.

Please call all applications and try running setup again." I have tried this several times. I keep getting the same message. The ADVAUTH.CAB file IS on my system in the Windows Update folder.

    - Start up Thank you for any help you might give. When I start my WinMe it says that I have had an “improper=20 shutdown” and wants to run a “scan disk”. As far as I = can=20 tell there was no improper shutdown. The Computer shut=20 down normally. It can take up to nine (9) hours for the=20 scan disk to run on C drive. If a problem is detected I=20 tell it to ‘fix problem’. At the next start up the same=20 thing happens. Would reinstalling the program solve the problem?---- Darlene----- Tag: Rundll error Tag: 229280

    - Cannot find wininit.ini I have tried to install latest security patch for internet explorer issued 2/4/04. When I restart the PC, I get message Windows could not upgrade the file %1 from %2, %1:% 2. Knowledge base says to find wininit.ini, change to wininit.old and restart PC. When I search for wininit.ini, I receive "There are no results to display." What do I do? In addition I found my system restore has not had any restore points for over 2 months, and I have no check mark in "Disable system restore" in the systems tools. When I try to create a restore point, it says to restart computer. It just cycles. Is this related to the wininit.ini file as well? Please help Tag: Rundll error Tag: 229268

    - Ok viruses wont leave Ok so i got the two viruses which i posed about earlier which is the iworm/ronoper.u and the iworm/sddrop. I downloaded grisoft and it found the files that were infected but it couldnt delete or remove them in any kind of way. There are about 160 files infected. My system restore isnt working. It shows me as having no back up points. So i download norton and i scanned it and it showed the infected files but when i went to the registry and tryed to turn back what the worm had done it said adminastrator wont let me or something like that. Said i could not do it in other words. So i deleted norton antivirus from my system and ran grisoft again and the same thing happened. So i dont know what to do? Also when i go into my computer, the windows file that on the c drive is gone. I cant locate it anywhere. I need some major help lol .... thanks :) Tag: Rundll error Tag: 229226
