Errors 0x800A138F and 0x80072EFD
Hi,
I'm running Windows ME and get the error 0x800A138F when I
try to access Windows Update. The Update Log lists the
error as 0x80072EFD. The solutions I've found (like on
http://www.updatexp.com/0x8007007E.html) are for XP and
have had no effect.
Does anyone have a good solution or resource for Win ME?
Thanks,
Will Tag: email Tag: 223239

Finding all updates available
Gday,
Where can I find the site that displays all the available
updates for ME, that I can download separately without
using the live update page??? Tag: email Tag: 223228
How do you remove...
The "Documents" list from the Start menu? Not just deleting the last ten
viewed--I figured that out. I want to get rid of the whole thing...
Thanx in advance!

0E: 019f: BFF7B018
the error code 0E: 019f: BFF7B018 is displayed and
operating system loads intermittently into safe mode and
occasionaly into normal mode. ME hangs and fails to boot
into OS all together.
Clean Boot has been tried to isolate the problem but
system completely froze up so a quick restore has been
performed.
What does the error code 0E: 019f: BFF7B018 mean and
does this error have any bearing on the issue of failing
to boot properly into the operating system. Tag: email Tag: 223223
.ICO files
Hi all.
Have seen many times on this newsgroup, the problem
of being unable to view .jpegs as thumbnails!
I have the same problem, except that it is .ICO files (icons)
that I am unable to view as thumbnails.
The thumbnail is just a picture of the program that is used to
open .ICO files, (in my case ACDSee 6.2).
I have upwards of 300 icons in a folder, I would be grateful if
someone could help me to be able to see a thumbnail of them again!
I have tried the usual fix: REGSVR32 THUMBVW.DLL
with no success, have also tried manually editing the registry
and adding the .ICO file values that seem to be missing, still nada.
Have gone way past System Restore or Scanregw /backup to be of any use.
Anyone point me in the right direction?

Windows ME fails on startup. "a device file specified in system.ini is damaged"
when I tried to reboot my Windows ME laptop this morning, it fails and
gives me a mesage that "a device file specified in system.ini is
damaged".
further it says "may need to run the windows Setup program again"
finally it announces a file "VPOWERD" (presumably the bad file but I
am unsure - see below.)
and then it hangs.
when I examine my SySTEM.INI I can't find VPOWERD referenced anywhere
so I am not sure that this is the problem file or if it is where it is
being referenced.
Nor can I find where VPOWERD is located (it's not under c:\WINDOWS nor
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM) or should be located on my system.
I do not want to reinstall Windows ME from my OEM CDs as the only
choice it gives is to overwrite the entire C: partition - which would
require reinstalling all my applications.
On a W98 machine I see that VPOWERD.VXD is located under
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM and, thinking wishfully that W98 and WME are close
cousins, I have tried taking a copy of that file to the same location
on my ME machine. No change and no improvement.
I have tried to create an ME EBD to try to run Scanreg but it tells me
that HIMEM is.... what is not enabled or whatever and to check that
HIMEM.SYS is on the booit disk - which it is.
Can anyone suggest a way that I can a) figure out what file or files
are bad b) how I can restire them (maybe from the CDs cabs?) without
having to do a complete reinstall of Wme.
many thanks for any suggestions.

Windows ME Startup menu items
I have too many items (programs) running in the background
when I startup my computer, which in turn, makes my system

need or want. How do I go in to turn off some of these
items, temporarily or permanently, in order to gain back
some system response speed? Please respond ASAP! Thanx! Tag: email Tag: 223213

Error Message
I am getting this message every time I boot up my PC:
motivesb has caused an error in kernel32.dll
The only thing that I have done before getting this
message is that I tryed to install a new printer HP
cartridge. HP said this is not related to a cartridge
but to remove the matcli.exe from startup. I did this and
I do not get the error message. The motivesb and matcli
files have something to do with the Verizon directory who
is my DSL provider.
I do not understand why the problem occurred and why
removing the matcli.exe from start-up fixed the problem.
Anyone who has an answer, please email me at above address.

Error in MSVCRT.DLL..?
Hi all,
I have been using my scanner on and off today to scan pics and such for a
family member. It was working perfectly until I suddenly got an error
message while loading a scan, that said...
Message box heading: Hposcv07
HPOSCV07: Caused an error in MSVCRT.DLL and will now close. And then when
you click OK, it shuts the scan process down and returns to the main menu.
In doing a search, I found a list located in various Program Files, one
being for the HP G55 all-in-one printer unit I have.
I rebooted and it would work for a time or two, then I'd get the message
again.
I have no idea what the MSVCRT.DLL is for, so I'm a bit puzzled as to what
has caused the error or where to troubleshoot the problem. I'd appreciate it
if someone could advise me as to what the .DLL file is in reference to, then
perhaps I can try to sort it out from there.
Best regards,
Jan :) Tag: email Tag: 223191

Virtual Memory
A systems "guru" has recommended that I specify my own virtual memory
settings to about 2 and 1/2 times my RAM (128 MB). It seems to me everytime
I see a reference to this setting in this NG, it ALWAYS says to let Windows
manage this setting.
Any insight as to the benefits, if, indeed, any ? Tag: email Tag: 223180
virus scan
I've picked up a virus in 'pixelpwr32'. Norton can
neither clean, delete, nor quarantine this virus. It's
name is Trojan.Gema
Here'a the printout:
Scan type: Manual Scan
Event: Virus Found!
Virus name: Trojan.Gema
File: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\pixelpwr32.exe
Location: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM
Computer: OEMCOMPUTER
User: default
Action taken: Clean failed : Quarantine failed :
Date found: Fri Dec 19 05:22:30 2003
I know the file is probably important to the operating
system but why can't the virus be put into quarantine and
then deleted from the quartantine file?
What happens if I delete pixelpwr32? What is pixelpwr32?
Thanks in advance

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: email Tag: 223126
