    Windows 98SE will not load

    Ok. I see where you got that from. What I meant was that I copied my data folders onto the c: drive before wiping down the d: drive and reloading it. So basically I have screwed up the boot sequence, initially, so that it would not boot to the d: drive when I did "sys c:". I hate to have to...

    Windows 98SE will not load

    Ok. I think that is part of the problem. I did the "sys c:"when the icons would not load. After I did that I could not access the D: drive. I'm afraid to do that again and render my d: drive inaccessable. edfair: forgive me for being naive here, why do you say that I have combined two...

    Windows 98SE will not load

    Is there no way to go thru the config.sys line by line and change it to point to the C: drive instead?

    Windows 98SE will not load

    This is a complicated issue and I will try to explain it the best I can. First, I have two drives. The C: drive has Windows 98SE on it and the D: drive has Windows 2000 SP2 on it. I'm not sure what has happened to the C: drive but at one point it would only boot just past the windows password...

    svhost.exe has generated errors...

    It was a virus. I updated Norton and ran a virus scan and it quarantined the virsu "w32.Randex.gen". I'm hoping that it didn't do any serious damage. The error I was getting seems to be the only problem. However, I plan to go back to Norton's website and review the cleaning...

    I/O Disk Error When Accessing Floppy Drive

    Ok. I have good news. Let me first tell you what I tried. I changed the values back (thanks for the reminder). I set a restore point. Then downloaded the Intel chip set and installed. This did not work. Ok. So I was anxious to get out of here and start my holiday weekend so I took the easy...

    Windows XP will not boot...

    The drives are just bays that pop in and out from the laptop. They do not have any jumpers on them. Have any other ideas?

    My address bar is gone...

    Ok. I found the answer to my own problem. Ha! I found it on Microsoft's community posts. Anyhow, it was a simple fix. I went to View-Tool Bars and unchecked "Lock the Toolbars". I'm not sure how that happened. Must have been one of those ID-10-T errors. LOL>

    My address bar is gone...

    ...you can see the word "address" on the bar but it is greyed out with no white box for inputting an address. Right clicking on a blank space and checking address bar does not work-it is already checked. I have IE 6.0, running with Windows XP. Here is a key to the problem. I had...

    Excel 2000 Exception 10h in Excel.exe

    Sorry. I guess it is 2-part. 1. What causes the msg. "file in use. locked for editing" when opening a file on a network. And 2. What can I do to troubleshoot the error, "Excel caused an exception 10h in module Excel.exe at 018f:3006f0d3."? I believe the printer is pcl...
