    - Weird Problem -- Repeating C's and N's This is a strange problem. Periodically, I get a sequence of repeating C's and N's (both uppercase and lowercase). When this is happening, I cannot select any menu item because the string of C's and N's is controlling the keyboard input. The only thing that seems to stop it is to either reboot the computer or to click on the Windows start key and keep pressing the letter S (between all the C's and N's) until the letter S finally gets recognized. I don't have a virus. I don't have any spies. I don't have any programs that shouldn't be there. I would think if it were a problem with the keyboard (keys getting stuck for example) that pressing the letter S would not stop the problem. Anybody ever heard of this??? Thanks.

    - folder options While attempting to change the icon to my folders I accidently caused the MS-DOS Prompt window to come up every time I double click on a folder in My Documents. I was in Folder Options under Tools in File Types and under Advanced in the Folder and File Folder spot and I changed the icon. I made the mistake of thinking that if I set it as Default it would stick. Instead it started to open the Windows Explorer every time I doubleclicked. So I went back in and discovered that I had set the command Explore as Default not the icon. So I tried to give it a new command like Open and set that as default so now it opens MS-DOS Prompt. If anyone has any ideas on how do undo a default I can't delete the actions out the option is not available with folders and I have tried System Restore, unsuccessfully. I have Windows Me.

I really don`t want to have to reformat my computer to the way it was the day I bought it. Is there someone where I can download the files so that I don`t have to reformat?

    - WinME inaccurately reporting C: space Hi everyone! I'm new to microsoft.public.windowsme.general, so please bear with me... anyway, problem. Currently, my C: drive is (I'm pretty sure) inaccurately displaying the amount of space remaining. On seven occasions in the past week and a half or so, I've deleted up to 1.2GB of stuff off of it. At no time in this past week and a half has it shown more than 500MB being free, and usually it says something between 30MB and 200MB. This happened once before on this drive, I believe, and once before on another drive... can't quite remember. It's happened at least once before, though, and that time it solved itself. Has anyone had this issue, and can anyone shed some light on it? This drive is a Seagate Barracuda ATAII, about 30GB total space, with three partitions consisting of a FAT32 partition (27.0GB), an ext2 (linux filesystem) partition (1GB), and a linux swap partition (500MB). Any light that can be shed will be much appreciated! Sincerely, T. Gold Tag: PC restarts it self Tag: 220816

    - Unable to post/reply to newsgroups via Outlook Express Hello all, I am able to post/reply from the Microsoft website, but not from Outlook Express 6.0. I used to use Outlook Express but haven't for a long time. Now that I need to use it, it won't allow me to do so. Here is what happens: I will see a newsgroup message I would like to post or reply from within Outlook Express 6.0. I will type out my post or reply and when i hit the send button I get this message: "The message could not be sent. No sender was specified. Please check your news account configuration." As far as I can tell everything seems to be as it should. Like I said, I used to use OE in the past, I'm not a total newbie but now I am having probs. The only thing that has changed from before compared to now is that I am using dial up thru AOL instead of the MSN DSL I used to have. Please instruct me on what to do. Having to use newsgroups thru the Microsoft website is not what I prefer to do. I rather access my newsgroups via Outlook Express again please. Thank you, Mandy Tag: PC restarts it self Tag: 220808
