    - Compaq Quick Restore for Win ME I have a compaq computer that I've upgraded from an Athalon 1200Mhz to an Athlon64 3000+. I have all hardware setup correctly but when I start the computer it will not boot. I get CMOS and POST but the system freezes with "OS not found" message. The hard drive came with the computer and has ME on it and I know it was bootable before. In addition I tried using my compaq quick restore disks and they tell me the computer is not a compaq (presumably because of the motherboard is new). The restore will not work. I'm kinda mad a compaq. I should have a full version of ME. I have a license for it!! Where can I get a replacement Win ME CD set? Tag: msvcrt.dll errors Tag: 249302

    - KB836528 - Texas fertilizer? Windows Update offers KB836528 (Mydoom, Zindos, and Doomjuice Worm Removal Tool) as a critical update with the following ominous message: The appearance of this update means that your machine is likely infected with one or more of these worms. How do they come to this conclusion? My up-to-date anti-virus product does not agree and gives the machine a clean bill of health. What are MS playing at? Producing bogus critical updates will not encourage confidence in users. Terry Tag: msvcrt.dll errors Tag: 249299

    - windows In windows explorer, we have lost the ability to create new folders as part of the file menu, i.e. - when you click on file the first option should be 'new' where you can create a folder or shortcut under a directory. Somehow that option is gone and we don't know how it happened. Does anyone know how to get it back in ME? Thanks Tag: msvcrt.dll errors Tag: 249298

    - Can't reduce size of Restore/Archive Whilst doing a virus check on my wife's machine I realised that the contents of C:_Restore/Archive has grown to 1.87gb with data going back to January! I changed the setting in Control Panel>System>Performance>File System to 414mb and restarted the system (several times) but the archive is stuck at 1.87gb. What can I do? The system is somewhat temperamental so I would be reluctant to delete all restore points and start again. TIA, Terry Tag: msvcrt.dll errors Tag: 249292

    - TAP132.DLL error message after installing SBCYahoo! Dail-Up CD Software After installing SBCYahoo! Dial-Up from a CD Rom sent by the company, I have had a very annoying Connectionmanager error message which pops up when I turn on my computer and when I try to connect to the internet with SBC Yahoo!. It says that connectionmanager has caused an error on TAP132.DLL. Connectionmanager will now close. This message repeats itself many times. I click on close, and the message reappears. Eventually it does not reappear...eventually. After calling tech support for SBCYahoo! Dial-Up, the technitian and I tried to create a new network icon as a shortcut to bypass that part of the internet connection on their software. When we did that I noticed that neither of the phone access numbers for SBC dial-up had hyphens listed on the Network window which pops up after clicking on Network on the lower left part of the My Computer window screen. I have a working AOL account which I am having no trouble with. That number has a hyphen listed, so we corrected all the numbers to include hyphens in both SBC dial up listings. When we tried to connect online with the new bypass link, I received a new error message reading Rundll32 has just caused an error on TAP132.DLL. So, I'm getting the same error now, from two different sources. The tech person said that this was not something they could help me with. That apparently there is a corrupted file somewhere. Is this something that can be fixed by uninstalling the SBC software and re-installing the program from another source, or is this fix going to be more involved... Thanks...SW Tag: msvcrt.dll errors Tag: 249279

    - Cannot use system recovery - lost hard drive Please can anyone offer me some help? My computer recently crashed (froze completely whilst on the internet) and when I forced it to shut down it restarted asking me to insert a boot disk. I put in a system backup floppy disk, but it won't recognise my hard drive. Bios works, but only finds the floppy/cd drives (whose names have been swapped - the floppy is now B: and the CD is C:). When I try to use a system recovery disk, it says "There is no hard drive", then Ghost says there is an 0x0c Sharing Violation, and it won't go any further. I've tried virus scans in DOS, but they can't find anything. Please help, I've had virus problems before, but never one that wouldn't let me recover. Is this a fatal virus? I'm running windows ME on a Samsung Laptop, or I was. Thank you very much Tag: msvcrt.dll errors Tag: 249247

    - Scandisk Hangs - Among other things I'm working on rehabilitating a friend's computer. At the moment I'm in a deep hole in that I can't even get the poor thing to start up. Scan disk runs because I had to force the shut down - but it just hangs. I'll try starting in safe mode when I get home from work tonight but I thought I would drop this posting in case someone has an idea that will keep me from making things even worse than they already are. Assuming that is possible. It's a Dell machine - lower end Dimension L800r. It's been running about 4 years. AntiVirus running but probably never updated. Clearly loaded with spyware. Possibly virus infected (obviously). May be suffering from some ill advised repair attempts of their own as well as of mine - to be honest. Symptoms are extremely slow response and other types of bizarre behavior. They recently downloaded and installed a program called WinAntiVirus 2004. That was my biggest going in problem because - they reported that it pushed them over the edge on response - unfortunately I can't stop the program because the only thing that it is willing to run is the activation program - I couldn't get to the internet to do it - and I'm not sure I want to do that. I unchecked it in the msconfig startup tab - but I'm concerned that some of the little processes that are running may also be associated with it - so I hesitated from simply uninstalling it from add/remove programs. Does anyone know of this program and whether or not it is reputable. It looks shakey to me. Regardless though - can't do much now that scan disk hangs and I can't get a start. I was in the process of investigating each thing in msconfig-startup and unchecking the ones that looked safe. The last thing that I did was to uninstall a thing called Webenhancer. Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated before I continue my journey. Tag: msvcrt.dll errors Tag: 249209

    - what's this qki.exe file doing? I am tuning up my father's system (HP Pavilion with 1 GHz Athlon, 128 MB RAM 40GB HD) and boy did he have some serious adware! I've been going through Registry and carefully deleting the junk that placed itself on his system, and am curious about qki.exe. It keeps perpetuating itself into the Programs/ Startup folder. I've deleted it, and still can't kill the little (49.5kb) bugger. I had a hunch it might have something to do with C:\Windows\Applog cos there is a file there, qki.lgc, which I am guessing is related in some way, and I'm interested in learning how. I renamed the lgc file, deleted qki.exe but it still came back after restarting. What's more, a search on google, cnet, et al shows nothing. Could it be something Microsoft (nothing on their site) or HP (or some other OEM) in fact provided? I've used a couple of programs to assist with the cleanup and none of them show it is as a known quantity. Besides wanting to know if it is something I should keep or kill, how/when would something re-create itself- on power down or power up? During Msconfig.exe selective startup, if I uncheck it, it adds another version of itself! Hope it's not a bug! Thanks, -- Glenn G. Tag: msvcrt.dll errors Tag: 249195

    - Long Wait-Time to Connect to Internet ? We have a vacation cabin in a very rural area. We have a dialup connection, and the speed varies, but is usually around 28k. Based on some research and in talking with others in the county, it appears there is no cure for this, as our home is very far away from the telephone central office or connection point. What we cannot understand is that it takes so very long to **initially connect** to the isp. It sometimes takes 10 or up to 15 minutes to connect. Every now and then, it will connect in 1 or 2 minutes, but it is never fast. I wondered is there are some modem settings that we could check and/or if there is a webpage that might discuss this. I have done many Google searches, but ALL of them talk about the overall speed of the connection itself, which is not what I am asking about. I am trying to improve the amount of time that it takes to make the **initial** connect to the isp. Any help on this one ?? Thanks for any input or ideas !! --James-- Tag: msvcrt.dll errors Tag: 249184

    - Best Backup Utility Please ? About a year ago, I spent a great deal of time researching the internet and reading many reviews, to select a good, reliable , backup utility. After much effort and reading, I selected Genie Backup Program. Although it has the features that I love and has a pretty intuitive interface, I find it to be unreliable and flakey. My OS is Windows ME. The main features that I want are : 1. Can write to CD. 2. Can automate on a pre-set schedule. 3. Stable, and reliable. 4. Practical and intuitive interface. 5. Easy backup restore process and interface. 6. Easy selection of folders and items for backup. ------------------------------------------------- Compression or encryption are not needed. Also, I never need more backups that what will fit on one CD. I guess my needs boil down to reliability and intuitive interface, as well as automation if possible in the same package. When I started out looking for an acceptable product a year ago, I thought that it would be simple to find a very good product for my limited backup needs. I don't feel the same way now, after reading glowing reviews about Genie Backup Program and then using it for a year. I hope this is posted in the right groups. If better or more proper groups exist, I would appreciate direction to them. Thank you very much for any helpful input on this !!! --James-- Tag: msvcrt.dll errors Tag: 249123

I am sure the guys are tired of me saying this.....but humour me. (G)

Do you have either the Google or Yahoo Toolbar on your computer?? Try
removing it and see if it clears it up. That was the only time I got that
particular error.....I was using a Yahoo toolbar.

Not a 'guru'......
