    - OE6 - WindowsME This sounds like something trivial but it's most irritating. I have created a signature, complete with highlights and background etc. in HTML. When I click on "Create Mail" in OE, I have my HTML background and signature perfectly presented. However, when I'm in a document and click on an email link, I have no background and when I click "Add Signature", it comes out in black print - white background. Why is that and how can I rectify that? Tag: Start up and DW.exe Tag: 230356

    - Startup issues after automatic Windows Update I had a client install the windows update last week when the little box came up. She thought she did the process correctly (don't they always). When it requested to reboot the system an "error loading explorer.exe, you must reinstall windows" message came up. If you click "OK", you then get can't find the comctl.dll file. Then it halts there. Anyone have any ideas. The system is a Gateway Solo 5300 notebook. The biggest problem, is that these systems don't come with a Windows ME disk only the system restore disk. No one at gateway can tell me if this disk will format and reinstall the system to it's original shipping configuration. I imagine it will since there are only two options, Go to Windows and Install System. Thanks in advance for any help. Jose Tag: Start up and DW.exe Tag: 230342

    - hanging at boot up Hi, I have been having trouble with boot up for about two months now. It seems like about every third or forth boot up, it is hanging and I need to hit the reset botton. It goes far enough to give me my wall paper, play the ME chime, and show the speaker in the system tray, then it hangs, shows the hourglass with the mouse pointer and doesn't go any further. It seems like it is hanging on a program that starts at boot up. I looked in "start>programs>startup" and nothing looks unusual there. Any Ideas Thanks gregory Tag: Start up and DW.exe Tag: 230327

    - C:\Windows\System Dialog box opens at logon Whenever I logon to my Win98 computer, the dialog box for the folder "C:\Windows\System" opens. I have just cleaned off a few viruses using Norton 2004, so this may be a residual effect now that they are all gone. I have checked the Autoexec.bat file, but did not see any entries for this dialog box, nor for a file inside of this dialog box. My starup menu is empty. Could this be in the registry? If so, where might I find the startup area in the registry? Thanks, Jason Cochrame Tag: Start up and DW.exe Tag: 230208

Two problems
1. How do I change what programs automatically startup
when Windows loads?

2. When I load Windows, an error message concerning DW.exe
pops up. Does anyone know what this program is, why its
an error, and how I can fix it?

Thank you so much
