I have the same exact error as BHurl1. It started when I was using Outlook Express, then upgraded to Outlook 2003. Same error in both pograms, altho I can print in any other program.
One of our users plays an audio CD daily on an older Compaq PC running XP Pro SP2 and the cd skips when playing on a regular basis.
I have seen some posts in other sites where wmplayer is an inferior product since it causes audible skips and repeats. A suggestion was made to change the default...
Since I did not have any of the above mentioned files, I downloaded the *.exe from MS's website and installed the msvbvm50.exe and installed it. It installed in the system32 folder so I copied those files and put them in the system folder.
I uninstalled the product and reinstalled it and it...
I double checked all my registry settings and they are set in all areas correctly.
The screen saver still won't come on.
I uninstalled the product which is www.dogsaver.com and the product was named yorkie. I also went through the registry and removed any mention of the dogsaver name.
I...
I don't have anything listed under HKCU/Software/Policies/Microsoft/Windows/ControlPanel/Desktop/ScreenSaveActive
Mine are listed under HKCU/Control Panel/Desktop and
ScreenSaveActive is set to 1 and is not a DWORD value but rather Reg_SZ.
Shall I create the policy under the first paragraph?
First, let me thank everyone for responding - I sincerely appreciate any assistance I can get.
Here's what I've done so far:
I ran sfc /scannow and event viewer indicated 3 files that could not be restored to its original version and they are:
oembios.sig
oembios.dat
oembios.bin
Sigverif...
The only screen saver that works in Safe Mode is the XP screen saver.
I also have 156 unsigned drivers, but don't know what to do with them.
I'll also try running the sfc this evening.
What I mean by never worked, none of the Windows default screen savers have ever worked. I can, however, select any screen saver that I want to use and preview it just fine, but it will never come on whether I choose 1, 5 or 10 minutes. It just won't activate. My power settings have been...
I've got an XP Pro Dell machine and the screen saver has never worked since day one. I've looked at all the discussions and my settings are correct in the registry. This machine runs Nortons Internet Security 2004.
I installed the same screen saver on another XP Pro machine that only runs...
Thanks to all who have responded. I did not take out the IDE drive, but I don't think it will work anyway because I'll bet I get the same error. I did try another floppy cable but I noticed that the ones I have don't work because the second pin on my floppy cables that go into the controller...
Nothing seems to work. I did reset the CMOS and still got the dreaded error and it could not see the floppy. I reinstalled all the drivers and it still would not recognize the modem or sound card. I also installed a brand new NIC card, connected it to my network at home and while it installed...
Thanks for the responses. How do I reset the CMOS (haven't done that in years and I'm having a senior moment - ha!). A new CMOS battery was installed a couple of months ago.
The start-up disk I used was the original start-up disk that came with Win98 and sys.com was copied to it from another...
I am trying to fix a friend's PC running Windows 98 that I believe has a virus in the boot sector. I receive the above message when I insert a Boot disk which has sys.com and fdisk on it since I was going to try and run the fdisk /mbr. The prolem I'm having is that the PC will not recognize...
One of our contract people has a laptop that he uses here at the office, and at home and another office. He is currently running XP Pro and the network he's attaching to is MS Server 2000. I recently migrated from an NT 4 server to 2000 (we have other 2000 servers as well) plus NT 4's.
The...
I have a laptop that is not connected to the network/ internet at this time. This machine was connected a couple of weeks ago.
For some strange reason, a dialog box pops up (not a pop-up ad) with a list of words as follows:
Yahoo
Kensington
cnet
cnn
mapquest

I am having the same problem. Exchange 5.5 is running on a W2K box and users have Outlook clients.
I have setup rules to forward one attorney's email (stored on the server and not in a .pst file) to an external address while he is out of the office for a week, and messages are not forwarded...
I finally got it to work, but something that I had totally forgotten was to log on as administrator and set him up as a user. And it worked fine.
What a dork! Sorry.
And thanks so much.
I failed to mention that I did right click My Computer and did change the name and tried to join the domain, but I simply get errors.
I noticed in his user accounts that he's the only one listed and even tho he's an administrator, there is not an administrator account listed.
He has a NW...
