Boot Up Error
As I boot up, and just before Windows starts, I receive
two Blue Screen errors: (1) OE : 019F:75C58000 and (2)
OE : 019F:75C53C9A. I am directed to hit any key and then
my wallpaper is almost immediately displayed and Windows
starts. I've tried to research this item, including review
of bootlog.txt, researching on the net including
microsoft.com and other tech sites, but I just can't find
an answer to (A) what do these error messages mean, (B)
what is the source of the problem, and (C) how can I
correct the problem(s)? Thanks, and Happy Holidays! Tag: Windows ME-Windows Update [KB828026] Media Player Tag: 223137

newdotnet3_23.dll
A friend has an old 98 gateway which runs windows 98. They
needed help getting it internet ready. Somebody was
playing with it before I arrived and somehow came across
this error message which pops up with every start-
up...Rundll32 has caused an error in newdotnet3_23.dll.
Rundll will now close. The computer is new to the person,
so I was simply going to use the gateway disks to bring
the computer to the original configuration to start it
fresh, but the original owner can't find them. I then
thought about a reformat, but with a gateway...it has a
built in sound and video card. So I am nervous about
drivers for them. On top of it all, even with the modem
installed properly and is running properly, the computer
refuses to log on to the internet. Any help or information
is more than helpful. Tag: Windows ME-Windows Update [KB828026] Media Player Tag: 223126

Wintrim.P virus
Got a problem with AVG/Windows/Something...
Ran the virus programme mid afternoon today and two virus detected.
They were 'Downloader.Wintrim.P' in the C:\windows\system\egdhtm~1.dll
file and 'Dialer' in the C:\windows\system\egdial.dll.
They were both successfully healed.
Ran the virus checker again and came across 'Downloader.Wintrim.P' in
the C:\_restore\temp\A0014142.cpy file and 'Dialer' in the
C:\_restore\temp\A0014143.cpy. These files were not healed and remain
on the system.
Tried deleting these files manually to no avail. They did not even
show up in Explorer and when I tried to remove the _restore file by
changing the attributes it would not let me.
Looked on the net and came across how to disable system restore and
checked the box in Mycomputer\Properties\Performance\File System. ran
AVG again and now I do not appear to have the virus but it did not
check the C:\_restore file.
I run Windows Me
What can I do? Is there a cure? Or a fix somewhere?

Windows ME performance problem
this is a huge problem that i simply cannot fix.
Basically, whenver the computer feels like it, it begins
to freeze for a few seconds and then unfreeze, continuing
to do this over and over until shutdown. Shutdown at this
point becomes difficult because you can't really use the
mouse when this happens. If im typing, it does the same
thing. it pauses and pause in like 2-3 second intervals.
After restart, the problem goes away but will shortly
return. It doesn't matter if i'm connected to the
internet or not. Does this make any sense? please
respond with your suggestions. I would greatly appreciate
it. Mike Tag: Windows ME-Windows Update [KB828026] Media Player Tag: 223050

Shutting down and restarting computer
Hi everyone,
I have in the past, received some pretty good suggestions
on how to go about fixing problems on my computer from
this site.
Well,I am now having another problem which is very
anoying.
Most of the time, when I try to perform a restart on my
computer, the system freezes up and I am forced to perform
a forced shutdown holding the power switch button untill
it shuts down.
However,If and when there is a need to perform a re-start,
I have discovered that if instead of giving my computer
the command to restart, I command it to shut down and then
manually restart it, it reboot okay most of the time, but
not all the time.
In attempting to fix this problem I have re-instaled
windows and this has not made any difference. My computer
is an 8765C HP and my microsoft updates are up to date. I
also seem to be having problems with my modem.It seems to
connect only when it feels like it(dial-up connection)and
hangs up quite freequently. I wonder if the modem problem
could perhaps be associated with the re-start problem?
Can somesone help me with this problem? Any suggestions
would be greatly aprecated.
Thank you in advance,
