    Win98 cannot find ui.dll

    Hi, thanks for the tips. Creating a slave drive seemed too drastic, so it was no option. What DID help was to remove the screen driver & re-install it. I now have a PC with correct colors that shows errors on not finding ui.dll & runtime error somewhere else, but that seems functional at...

    Win98 cannot find ui.dll

    Hi, I have had problem with my HD: bad contact in power calble. Random HD failure crashed my win98SE installation: at bootup, I get only 16 colors, and an error "cannot find ui.dll". Also: runtime.dll failure. A limited Win98se re-install in the same dir did NOT solve the problem...

    Bypass keyboard test at startup

    When no keyboard is attached while booting, Win2K does not load the keyboard driver. Is there a way (registry ?) to bypass the check and to force Win2K to load the driver?

    Phone line dead by modem

    I had the same problem with a normal phone that I externally power. When the pohone is connected, line dead. Still, the line recovered afterwards. Opening the phone, it appears that the phone has no line transformer. This is technical - connecting the external power supply, which had its ground...

    Capturing Serial input to text/db file

    See www.taltech.com - haven't used it myself yet, but looks useful. Also, if your input data is formatted properly (numbers separated by any decent character ) try capturing the file directly in hyperterminal (or better, ZOC) and send it to a text file. Later, open the text file in, for...

    PCI1420 & IRQ

    Hi, I am bulding my own backplane to connect to an EBX motherboard. The system should run WintNT & Win2000. The backplane needs a PCI-to-cardbus dual slot interface. I am using a TI PCI1420 bridge to do this, but my EBX board doesn't provide a IRQSER connection. Does anybody know what hardware...
