here's my problem, i have dell dimension 4100 w/win me..
it just started giving me problems recently...my comp would keep on rebooting (wouldn't even load win me), when it got to "Starting Windows Me", it would reboot, so i called dell techical support, they told me i had a virus
so i formatted my hd, reinstalled win m
thought that solved my problem, but nop
i keep getting error messages when i install some software..
try to install microsoft word, when it gets to installing fonesync, "_ins576 has caused an error in KRNL386.EXE, then i get the famous "Blue Screen", and then another error "Fsetup has caused an error in Kernel32.dll", then i do hard reboot, when win me loads back up, setup screen for word comes up and clicked on install word, "Msgsrv32 has caused error in Krnl386.exe" and another error, "_delis has caused and error in Krnl386.exe
try to install scanner, "MPREXE has caused an error in Kernel32.dll" then won't close so i do a hard reboo
i use Flashpeak Slimbrowser as my browser, sometimes when i close it, "Sbrowser has caused an error in sbrowser.exe" then i try to reopen Slimbrowser, "Sbrowser caused an error in User.exe
sometimes when i click on "Start" and try rebooting or shutdown, "Dels21winname not responding", sometimes "Avgemc not responding", and alot of the time "(no program) not responding
lastly but not least..
sometimes when i do anything that has something to do with win me, like going into "Msconfig" and "Display Properties", comp crashes, the mouse was still functional but not the screen so i would do a hard reboot
i had my comp since jan. 2000 and it worked fine up until a week ago
i had norton antivirus 2001 on, uninstalled, put AVG on, did full scan, found nothin
i even went to symantec and mcaffee websites to do a web scan, found nothin
i had aol 9.0 on before format, but didn't even bother installing it back on, i do have AIM tho
btw, also i get error "IPHLPAPI.DLL file cannot start" but i haven't put aol 9.0 back on after forma
