Can anyone point the way to where I can pickup free software to replace the Mediamatics program I lost in crash. I have dual deck Compaq DVD CD/R but I can't play any DVD movies. I tried Medimatics site but they no longer support this software. Any site where I can find FREE download for DVD...

Well I went thru all the "MEMBERSHIP" hoop-la and got this download which is an "OPEN WITH" !! Now I cannot find the icon (it is an icon of 2 gear). Now how do I find this program to open this file. ?? Thanks for the quick reply but need some more help to get me this file downloaded.

Somewhere along the way I lost the dvd driver for my Compaq 5000 P/C. (Windows 98SE) It was MEDIAMATICS DVD. I TRIED to recover it by going to the HP/Compaq web which invloved downloading the driver to a floppy. (which I did). However I am unable to succesfully load the floppy as it must be...

Never mind Tek_Tip. I found the problem . Somehow the MS Dos got entered onto my autoexe bat. I unchecked the box and now can boot in normal mode. Will put that problem & fix into my ever increasing list of snafus I,ve encountered.

Somehow my p/c will no longer boot up in normal mode. Even when I start up and prompt the F8 key and select 1 (normal) starup it continues to proceed to the MS Dos screen. It WILL start in the 3 option (SAFE Mode) but not in the normal mode.Using Windows 98SE, Compaq Presario 5000 P/C Need some...

I really think he would be better off to stick with Windows 98SE and (as you noted in first reply) would be better off to disregard ME completely. I will pass this info on to him and hope he can use it . Mainly, I believe he is going to just stay with 98SE but it has been so badly corrupted by...

Thanks Ed! Actualy I posted this question on behalf of my brother. I sent him my old Gateway G6-400. Before I sent it to him I replaced the hard drive and installed Windows 98 and then upgraded it to Windows 98SE. When I shiped it to him it had nothing on it but the basic Gateway restore...

I am presently using Windows 98SE OS. I want to install the Windows ME. How do I proceede? Do I uninstall 98SE first or can I just install ME over it? Thanks in advance Jerry625

Dah! Doh! Dumb#^&@(!!!! Just in case you guys who took the time to help me droped by to visit again, I wish to tell you that the problem is resolved (somewhat) !! When the light bulb came on, I realized that that Compaq Rescue & Recovery CD disk will not do me any good at all as ALL the data was...

tracee,ed & micker. The original drive was formated windows 98se.Now, using eds MS dos commands (by bootup using my original start-up disc I made when I got the machine & using option 2 "startup machine with cd rom support" I sucessfully got MS DOS to FILE "BOOTCAT.BIN" & "BOOTSECT.BIN"...

Thanks again edfair. I am a complete dunce when it comes to MS DOS commands. Do you know what commands I need to use to get this accomplished . I have both "D" & "E" CD drives and both worked when I installed windows 98se. When I go into the MS DOS and use the command "xcopy" (without the "...

Thanks edfair but the real problem is just that! I CANNOT boot the restore disk. The boot requires a "BOOT BIN" program to open it and when I attempt to start the boot I get the prompt that this is not a " VALID WIN 32 APPLICATION" Therefore I am unable to boot the Compaq recovery disk at all. I...

Thanks for the sugestion Traycee. I had considered that as a possiblity but really as a last resort. I concur with your comments on only installing the necessary drivers . I still am interested in finding out how one can find a way to overcome this "bootcat" & bootbin" bottleneck and hope one of...

When my hard drive bit the dust I replaced it with a new hard drive. I then formated the new drive with Windows 98se. (which installed ok). Now I find that all my hardware drives are missing and I do not know how to get them reinstalled. I tried to boot Compaq Recovery Disc to see if I could use...

Thanks Ski! I "Finally" managed to find the elusive STB Velocity 4400 video card and it's update on the Gateway web site. One has to be a real detective to get to the correct sub-basements that hide these things, but I succeded and now that damn "IEXPLORE FAULT PROTECTION" no longer appears! Let...

Thanks Ski!! I think this may be what I have been looking for. Will let you know if problem is resolved.

This video card appears to be something involving "GAMES" etc. This McAfee optimizer program I am attempting to use is a program to optimize my P/C hardware and components.(i.e. check them for possible problems)

Thanks Ski BUT I haven,t a clue as to where to find this "VIDEO CARD" or let alone "UPDATE IT".Can you elaborate a wee bit more??

When attempting to run McAfee optimizer I get this messsage posted and I get booted off "IEXPLORE caused a general protection fault in module V128IID.DRV at 0002:0000b3d5. Registers: EAX=00000000 CS=0337 EIP=0000b3d5 EFLGS=00000212 EBX=0000001e SS=3b3f ESP=000091ca EBP=000091ec ECX=00000029...
