What is FatalExit Code 0x0020? by
Stan Hilliard
I saw my first FatalExit Code 0x0020 yesterday during shutdown of
Win98SE.
It was in the very upper left corner of the screen and it flicked on

IE 6 Problem by
Patch
Something has happened to my installation of IE 6. When I try to connect to
my dial up ISP, my password window is blank, the box for "saving password"
is grayed out, also the "Auto connect" box is grayed out. I've gone through
all the settings and I can't see the problem. I hope someone can help.

Reinstalling windows by
001 Michael 100
Hello,
I just reinstalled windows, and I preserved all my files.
Is there any way that I can get all my previous settings
to revert back to how they were before I reinstalled? (ie-
my internet settings, display settings, drivers, etc.)
Thanks.

My Windows 98SE caption buttons scramble. by
Ron J
It effects all caption and control buttons in all programs. They become
unrecognizable as they turn multiple colors. The only way to correct the
problem is to restart. A restart temorarily solves the problem. I have been
unable to determine at what point the scrambling actually occurs.
