I have tried to upgrade to XP from ME and I just can not get past the compatibility issues. I have updated all the drivers that were requested and am still left with a blocking issue, in that "Microsoft Shared Fax Client" is the culprit. There is no Fax in the Add/Remove programs so I disabled the...

There is a green box with the letters "EN" in my system tray. It was not there a couple of hours ago. How do I get it to go away? What is it? I searched help but could not find anything regarding it. All help is appreciated. -- -Jesse

Greetings, sorry to ask but my mind as gone blank on me.. could someone walk me through the steps to install 98 onto a Gateway machine now running ME. 98 was the orignal OS and the upgrade to ME has caused a "lot" of small problems.. So... my friend wants to go back to 98.. Thanks, RTS

Hi All, I'm back...Grrrrrrrrrr! About a 1/2 hour ago, I began seeing a computer icon pop-up in my system tray displaying the message: "Disk Space Low." I know something happened that is causing my memory to get sucked-up. Can anyone tell me what to do to remedy this problem. My OS is Windows ME...

Many times when I shut down or restart I get this message with the options to either "Wait", "End Task" or "Cancel". The program that is not responding is "AV Tool Tip View". My problem is that I can't find where this program is so I can remove or repair it. Eugene

I did a restore to a month ago and now my machine blue screened.. I cannot bring the restore back to my current date... it says I am missing a file. How do I bring back my settings of today so I can get the unit back up.

How much space should I set system restore to use. Right now it is at 3GB (default?) -- -Jesse Are you getting your Daily Brief? http://home.comcast.net/~dailybrief

Hello, I am having troubles opening my fonts through c/windows/fonts. Every time i double click to see the font, and open the file, nothing happens, and when i right click and click on open as, I do not have the option of windows font viewer. Does Windows Me not have this? If it does, how do I add...

I am wondering if upgrading to XP will erase most, if not all, problems I'm having with Me (crashes, explorer freezing up, etc), or should I take the computer to Geek Squad and have them work on the computer? I just don't have the time to sit down myself and try all the different things in order to...

Hello Just a follow-up on the my "No Automatic System Restore Point" problem. To summarize: Previously posted that I suspected that "no auto SR points" being created was the result of Avast Anti Virus. Initial contact with Avast Technical Support resulted in a recommendation to "Turn off System...

...I spent most of yesterday afternoon running ScanDisk (it found errors) and reinstalling Windows ME. If you didn't first uninstall IE6 before reinstalling WinME, things have gotten even more complicated. You now have what the WinME Pros call "Version Soup". Here's MVP Noel Paton's...

I can't start ME - the Active Recovery desktop comes up briefly and then it goes to a blue screen with the error: File Name VMM(12) + 00004C3C Error: 0E:0028:C0283C3C I can bring it up briefly in safe mode before getting the above error. Options are ctl-alt-del to reboot or enter to return to...

Hi mph170 :-) As you are unable to use the CDROM on your machine to load the scan and removal tools to check your machine for scumware, or use the HP Recovery CD, by this reply I am crossposting your post to the microsoft.public.windowsme.general newsgroup, as I think you may need the assistance...

I just rec'd a dialog saying the 'Msoobe has caused an error in MSHTMLED.DLL and that it will now close.' Any ideas what the problem might be? Thanks in advance, David
