    - Hard drive runs all the time I use Windows Me. My computer has gotten very very slow, particularly when I try to access the web. The hard drive runs all the time, as though it was looking for something it can't find. I have defragmented, removed some programs from startup, ran scandisk, you name it, and nothing seems to help! What could be wrong? Tag: microsoft word Tag: 226344

    - Not enough memory Everytime I start Windows, multiple error messages say that there is not enough memory available to perform the operation and that I must close another program, even if there's nothing open. They just pop up as soon as I can click ok. Thereafter, I cannot open any applications. Even when starting the machine in safe mode, it freezes and gets hung. Any suggestions would be *greatly* appreciated! Thank you. Tag: microsoft word Tag: 226339

    - Control Panel Please help. It takes about 2.5 minutes for the control panel on my pc to open fully. It takes about 15-20 seconds for it to appear, then the rest of the time for the icons to appear. I've defrag'd my pc fully to see if it would run faster, but its still the same. Any ideas?

    - Lost my Quick Launch toolbar. Help My Quick Launch toolbar lost all the icons so I hid it and tried to bring it out again, hoping it would be recreated. However all I get is a message saying 'unable to create toolbar' Any ideas how to get it back anyone? This happened at the same time my C:\WINDOWS\Application Data folder somehow got binned, I manually copied it back and this seems to have sorted some of the obvious problems with OE , but I don't know if it would have any effect on the Quick Launch toolbar. I'm running OE6 on WinMe, but my Restore Point facility has been broken for a long time. Thanks in advance Hugh Tag: microsoft word Tag: 226332

    - Help with ME problem.. I don't know what's happened but I've had problems with my computer the past week and now when I start it the only thing it'll do is come up and say "Operating system not found". I've been thinking about getting XP since I hear ME is so bad and I guess now would be the time to do it. If I get XP can I just put it in the CD tray and turn it on to install it or do I have to uninstall ME first(if it's even still there) but I don't know if I can because I can't get my desktop, taskbar and Start button. My restore CD seems to not work and instead of buying another one I thought of going this route with the XP. Is this a feasible option?? Tag: microsoft word Tag: 226329

    - Uninstall IE6 Update Have been having many problems with installing the Internet Explorer update on Windows ME. I have tried reinstalling as well as using all three of Jim Byrd's 3 recommendations to fix (found in previous postings in this group). I also tried the fix according the the MS Knowledge Base article concerning "Error Message: Windows Could Not Upgrade the File %1 from %2 %1: %2" since I was also initially having this problem (I do not have a WININIT.INI file on my computer). No luck with any of these I think that enogh of time has been taken trying to fix this problem. I would like to just uninstall IE6 and reinstall IE5 since I never had any problems with IE5. But, apparently MS has not provided a way to do this on WINME. I saw the KB article outlining how to do it on Windows XP but that does not help me. In addition the "Add/Remove Programs" does not provide a way Can anyone tell me how to uninstall IE6 on WINME? Everything on my computer seems to be running fine except IE6 and Outlook Express. I have downloaded the IE5 setup files but it will not allow me to install it over IE6. Thanks in advance for your help. Keith Tag: microsoft word Tag: 226318

    - Extended support for Windows 98 (&SE) and ME http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/01/13/tech/main592839.shtml Windows 98 Gets A Reprieve REDMOND, Wash., Dec. 13, 2003 About 20 percent of all Windows-based computers still run Windows 95 or 98. Support for Windows 98 and Windows 98 S.E. was going to expire Friday, and Windows Millennium Edition would have lost support on Dec. 31. (AP) Microsoft reversed a decision to stop support for some older Windows operating systems, saying Monday some customers in developing countries were not aware of the change. Support for Windows 98 and Windows 98 S.E. had been scheduled to expire Friday, and for Windows Millennium Edition on Dec. 31. Under Monday's decision, the software giant would maintain paid phone support for the operating systems and review security threats to determine whether it will provide customers with security patches through June 30, 2006. "While we've done an excellent job communicating our life cycle policy for most of our products, we have found that we could use more time to communicate those guidelines in a handful of smaller markets," including Kazakhstan, the Ivory Coast and Slovenia, Microsoft spokesman Matt Pilla said. About 20 percent of all Windows-based computers still run Windows 95 or 98, according to International Data Corp., a technology market research firm. Support for Windows 95 ended in 2001. Since Oct. 15, 2002, Microsoft has offered seven years of support for its new products. Before that, it offered four. ©MMIV The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.

The URL tells me to "enable cookies". I am using WindowsME. They are enabled and I have checked this. The security settings are OK too ( set to medium). However, i still get the same message. I have removed all temp files etc and used Index.dat Suite to remove index files. I do have Ad-aware, Spyblaster and Spybot installed but i have disabled them. Could i have a problem in the registry?

    - Windows Me wont restart This really sucks so any help would be greatly appreciated. I recently had to replace my motherboard/processor. My AMD processor died so I bought a motherboard/processor combo. Everything loaded fine, Windows Me booted up fine. I loaded a new video card. At this point the system upon recognizing new hadware rebooted. I loaded the new soundcard drivers and it asked if I wanted to restart. I clicked yes and it went to a black screen with a cursor in the top left corner. The short of it is the computer works fine other than it wont restart. If anyone could help me fix this and spell it out for me (I'm not the greatest at this kind of stuff) it would be greatly appreciated. Tag: microsoft word Tag: 226264

    - Frozen computer in 5 minutes I was browsing a web page when my computer froze and the screen faded white in a wierd way. I tried to reboot my computer, but both times the computer freezes up again and becomes white within 5 minutes of rebooting. The first time I tried I was on-line, the second time I was not. I contacted both AOL (my isp provider) and Sony (my computer manufacturer) and both claimed it was not a problem related to them. I thought it might be the blaster worm, but I was almost certain I had installed the patch to remove it before. Besides, I'd figure in a year my anti-virus software who have updated to block that. I don't know what else to do. Tag: microsoft word Tag: 226257

You will have to reinstall it from the CD it came on it is not part of the
Operating System, although some manufacturers do bundle it with their
machines.
