Yes -- the computer knows all the drives are there during startup- it's just Windows Explorer that isn't aware of drives e: and f:. Device Manager knows they are there (although the CD-ROM does not have a drive letter assigned to it.) The computer the "new" drive c: came from had one...

My OS is Win98 SE. My computer has three distinct disk drives (c:, d:, and e:) and the CD drive is drive f:. My c: drive "died" and I replaced it with the c: drive from another computer. Although the system knows there are three disk drives, and the CD drive, drives e: and f: (CD) are...

when too many apps are running in the background, system resources are low this causes fonts to "disappear", even if they are installed eliminate unnecessary apps running in the background (i.e. realplayer and quicktime) and hopefully you'll eliminate your "missing font" problem

thanks for the speedy reply...

is there a registry tweak to enable smooth scrolling for mail in the Inbox of Outlook 98? any ideas are appreciated!

ok - Thank You for your help. I'll give it a try!

thanks - somehow I thought it would be more difficult... I thought I read somewhere that using MSN Explorer forces MSN email to a webmail-only arrangement?

Members, A friend currently gets to his MSN email (he pays for email and internet access) using "MSN Explorer" and the MSN/Hotmail website. How do I configure Outlook Express 6 to compose, receive, and send his email? How do I configure Outlook Express 6 so he can store his email...

how do I set up smooth scrolling in OL98? I figure a registry setting "smoothscroll" has to be set to "1" but where is that setting?

Darren - Thanks for the suggestions... Using the clipboard got me thinking - besides the third-party clipboard apps mentioned in the link there are a few in the Win98 Resource Kit. "Cliptray.exe" works fine. Thanks again for your help.

Is there a way to set up a keyboard hot-key combination which would automatically generate a (pre-stored) text string? For example, my email address? Thank you, all.[/color]

Kimber - That did it! Thank you so much. Jon

the right hand pane in regedit no longer shows any detail any idea what happened? and how I can view the deatil again? -- the data is there - you just can't see it unless you right-click on the key and select 'modify'

I have this problem as well! Anyone know how to fix it? OS is WinME. Thanks in advance!

[COLOR=blue]that works for me! thank you for the advice. Jon

[COLOR=blue]Jim, Thanks for the help. Fresh out of the box, before any interim version updates, various Norton Systemworks apps are not Win Me compatible. Same for GoBack (Adaptec/Roxio), and McAffee Guard Dog. Not sure about Mijenix Powerdesk (an Explorer replacement). I DON'T like Me. I hope...

[COLOR=blue]Gary - thanks for your perspective. I'll hold off for a while and see how things go with the learning curve. A few "features" of Win Me are particularly annoying: • I can't display the "traditional" explorer view, with folders shown on the left, and file names...

[COLOR=blue]Thank You Jim for the speedy replies and all your help! Jon

[COLOR=blue]Thank You Jim! And all the apps will not have to be re-installed? Something else - In addition to IE, the Dell box came with "MSN Explorer" and a year's prepaid internet access through Dell.net. Is "MSN Explorer" just a skin on top of IE 5 or 5.5? It's very...

A friend just bought a Dell PC (Celeron 700 MHz, 128 meg RAM) with Windows Millenium installed. I think he would be in better shape with Win98 SE. How can I "upgrade" to Win98 SE without having to re-install all the apps that came with the computer?
