    - System Restore problem I used to get the "cannot update %1 %2" message while rebooting. I asked for help and got it using the ATTRIB - H -S -R etc method. Then I get the "cannot create a restore point . Restart the computer etc." The help I got from the Microsoft site used to work. That is Method 2, Scanreg /restore etc. Now that doesn't work either and my System Restore sits there like a white elephant. When I go to Registry Editor, it opens in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System/CurrentControlSet/Services/VxD/Vx DMon. In the right pane the following is listed: (default) (value not set) FirstRun "N" LogDir "c:\_RESTORELOGS" StaticVxD "VxDMon" SystemFileProtection "Y" SytemRestore "Y" TempDir "c:\_RESTORETEMP" VxdCfg "C:\_RESTORE\VxDMon.cfg" VxdDat "C:\_RESTORE\VxDMon.dat" I don't know if any of that means anything but I thought I'd tell you anyway. Also on My Computer/Properties/Performance/File System I changed the System Restore disc space used to 200MB, just like I was told to do. I'm not having any luck. Can you help me?

    - missing network, system icons from Control Panel These two controls suddenly stopped working - double click yielded nothing. Following instructions I found in the MS knowledge base, I renamed the netcpl.cpl and sysdm.cpl files. This caused the icons to disappear. So far, so good. I used the system config tool to extract these two files from the CABs on the hard disk (in SAFE mode as the instructions again required). I then moved the files to the \windows\system folder and rebooted in normal mode. No new icons. In a command window I tried control netcpl.cpl and get nothing, same for the sysdm.cpl control. Other controls work correctly when executed from the command line. I checked the control.ini file and these two controls are not in the "Do not run" section. I've run out of ideas and have found nothing more on the net. For what it's worth, my networking is still working, at least for now. Tag: SYMSTORE.DLL Tag: 247821

Whenever I try I get the following message, "Streets & Trips 2001, an un-named file has bad format". As a result I am unable to change my ink cartridge. It has been suggested that I should remove and reinstall that CD. Is it okay to just remove that program and then reinstall the program alone or must I remove and reinstall ALL of the Microsoft Works CD's? I have never done this and am very nervous about trying it.

For a couple of weeks now (seems much longer) I have been trying to figure out why I am getting the following error message: "cannot run unicode version ALT.DLL on windows 98,please install the correct version." I am really confused about this. I have no idea why I am getting this message or how to correct the problem. Does anyone know what I should/can do? I contacted HP about it and they told me to do a system restore,but the error pops up and then freezes up my system. I tried contacting microsoft and they said for me to contact HP,so it is like a vicious circle that I am trapped in. I appreciate any help/info anyone can offer me. Thank you.

    - Renaming .dll files I'm trying to solve my Internet Explorer 6 installation difficulties, and one of the procedures requires renaming certain .dll files. I follow the instructions by starting the computer in safe mode and when I try to rename a file, for example "actxprxy.dll", the computer tells me the file cannot be renamed because it is being used by windows. I can't find a solution to this problem in the article (# 303399, btw) and since I apparently need to rename the files and can't, I'm at a loss, any ideas? Thank you in advance for any assistance.

    - Add/Remove Programs Tool (2) Look - I've had two answers to this query BUT the respondants have NOT READ THE POST. The operative word here is that NO as in NONE as in NADA programs are showing up in the tool. This does NOT mean that SOME of them don't show up... NONE of them show up. So trying to do a fix because all of the programs names are longer than the allowed string isn't going to produce a solution, thank you. Also it the ADD/REMOVE button doesn't highlight either - which means I can't ADD any programs with the tool. NOW... if you have a solution, I would surely like to know how to fix this little bugger.

    - Can't get into the DOS mode at startup If I hold CTRL while booting, I get a choice of four startup modes. Starting in MS-DOS is not one of them; unfortunately it's the one I really need. I made the mistake of deleting vmm32.vxd, so I can't start. I see the following message: The following file is missing or corrupted: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\VMM32.VXD Type the name of the Windows loader (e.g., C:WINDOWS\SYSTME\VMM32.VXD} This is followed by the c: prompt. Before deleting vmm32.vxd, I made a copy of it, so it's somewhere in the laptop. Stupidly, I didn't record its path. Unless I type the exact path to the file, the above message merely repeats. Even though I see the c: prompt, it doesn't respond to the DIR command or any other DOS command. It's looking just for the path the vmm32.vxd. So I want to boot into the DOS mode so I can use the dir command to find vmm32.vxd. I've looked for someplace I can d/l vmm32.vxd for ME; can't find one. Any leads? Thanks for your help.

    - DVD disappears in Safe Mode Any ideas on why my DVD drive (functionally my CD drive) isn't visible in Safe Mode? It appears in the BIOS setup screens, and is properly identified there. I'm trying to apply a firmware update to the drive, but the utility hangs under normal Windows, and won't run at all in DOS (boot floppy) mode. I figured I'd just run it under Safe Mode to eliminate all the overhead and possible conflicts. No good, since the drive isn't there in Safe Mode. - Bill Tag: SYMSTORE.DLL Tag: 247717

    - Need config file I'm new to windows ME, and am pulling my hair out. I have a dos program that checks a port on a pos system port. The program requires a file 'gossip.sys' to be loaded from the config.sys file upon startup. Even though I put the device line into the config file and save it, and make it read only, whenever I reboot the system, the config file is empty. Why is my config.sys empty or more important, how can I work around this? All help is appreciated. Alan Tag: SYMSTORE.DLL Tag: 247712

    - EMM386 problem Working on a Dell PIII 866mgh 128 ram. I did a complete re-install of Win ME but during the checking disk portion at the beginning it found all sorts of errors on the disk. It said it repaired them all but about half way thru the first attempt at this, it just locked up and said something about some more disk errors.. So I started over and it repaired some more disk problems (so it said) and that time finished loading Win ME.. After getting all the drivers (sound card etc) back in, it was running quite stable for about a half hour and all of a sudden the blue screen of death showed up with a EMM386 error and something about couldn't load frameset. After that, I couldn't even get it to boot up. Is it possible that the HD is shot? I didn't mention that I defragged after the install and it showed some bad sectors on the HD during the defrag. However, it ran good for that first 30 minutes or so.. Any quick solution to this? I did Google the EMM386 and found more stuff than I really wanted to know HA HA.. Sounds like it has a lot to do with upper memory stuff and I have not had this type problem before..

    - Memory Hello: Thanks in advance for your help. I have been having major problems with my ME PC. It was looping to a site, but I fixed that by running anti-spyware. It seems I have solved all errors except one. That is: I have an built in ethernet port. There is an exclamation mark next to the ethernet adapter in Device Manager (thus I cannot get on the net or network). I have tried reinstalling the drivers and the same error persists. When I look at the specific error in device manager it reads, "This Device cannot find any free memory range resources to use (Code 12)...If you want to use this device, you must disable another device that is using the resources this device needs. To do this click Hardware Troubleshooter and follow the instructions in the Wizard" That is not helping me though. I have 128 MB RAM What shall I do? Thanks again Tag: SYMSTORE.DLL Tag: 247669

    - Printer and Mouse Problems I recently installed a new HP printer, using my USB port for the first time. Since then I have experienced two problems. After using the computer for a while the computer hangs for a few seconds when I click the mouse to execute certain commands. An example is clicking the "x" in the upper right corner to close a document. Not all mouse commands have this problem. I also noticed that the clock in the system tray is running slow - loses 15-20 minutes per day. When I reboot everything is fine for a while. A few days ago I deleted three printer-related HP programs from running in the background upon start-up - Port Resolver (Hpbpro.exe), Status Server(Hpboid.exe), and Status Client (a long file name associated with the HP toolbox and ending in statusclient.exe). Since then I have not experienced any problems. Have I solved my problem or is there something wrong that still needs to be fixed (e.g. replace CMOS battery)?

The Win Me operating system doesn't use a file name symstore.dll which is a
file used by Symantec "applications". Preferably uninstall and throw away any
Symantec software you have installed or if you are wedded to using Symantec's
flawed products reinstall this software.
