win98 shutdown patch made things worse!!!. 1

[Chrissirhc]

Hello I had no problems restarting or shuting down my computer. For some stupid reason whilst trying to solve my problem of crashing by updating evertyhing I installed the latest patch for the shutdown. My computer when you shut down comes up with an error for taskmon. I have to close this down. Dr Solomons came up with this;

OLE32 Extensions for Win32 performed an invalid memory access.

Module Name: URLMON.DLL
Description: OLE32 Extensions for Win32
Version: 5.50.4134.600
Product: Microsoft(R) Windows (R) 2000 Operating System
Manufacturer: Microsoft Corporation

Application Name: Iexplore.exe
Description: Internet Explorer
Version: 5.50.4134.600
Product: Microsoft(R) Windows (R) 2000 Operating System
Manufacturer: Microsoft Corporation

I uninstalled the patch but it still didn't make a difference. What should I do to get things back to normal. The only other thing ended up doing was updating the promise 100ATA drivers from the asus site.

I have this failing to shutdown in Win98 almost every day on my work computer, and I have found the best way to ensure a correct Shutdown, I do the following:

Close all running programs (excluding bground processes)
Open Task Manager with Ctrl-Alt-Delete
Kill MSIMN - if listed
Kill RNAAP - if listed
Kill RUNDLL - if listed
Then I shutdown - No problems!
(I still have ZoneAlarm, NortonAV, PWS, WorkGroupMail, AnalogX Proxy, iFox, and Norton Crashguard still running in the bground, and it still shuts down fine)

Couldn't find the details in the bios. But when I boot up the promise ATA controller searches for attached drives and gives me the correct drive

Hey...

I currently have a Gateway Destination, 333Mhz, with 320MB of RAM...My problems is concerning the creative labs ES1371 intergrated sound chip in my MBD, and the ATI All in Wonder Pro, With the Rage Pro Turbo AGP 2X...I currently have a dual boot OS, Windows ME and Windows 2000 profesional...In Windows ME, The sound is fine...I don't know how familiar you are with a Destination, but every audio device attached to my system is through a MUX audio cross bar...

In Windows ME, my sound is fine...But in Windows 2000, when and if I have sound, it's very low...I noticed that if I enable plug and play OS in the BIOS, I lose sound in ME...
Do you think that would have anything to do with my hardware, or do I need to flash my BIOS to get clear sound in 2000? Are there any settings that I can check or modify to see whether or not I really need to get a new sound card and MUX, and if so, do you know where I could look..?

My second concern is my video...I think that I have to have specialized drivers to make Windows 2000 recognize my monitor...It recognizes it as multiple monitors, a regular plug and play, Gateway DL27, and generic tv...There is a correct driver for Windows ME...Are the drivers interchangeable..? If not, how can I modify it so that it is..? Thanks...
