DirectX Diagnostic Tool
Under the "Network" tab in the diagnostic tool of DirectX I find these
notes: Problems were found in the system registry. Details available in the saved text file. With good reason to believe this may have something to do with my login problem, I would like to inquire how to go about finding that saved text file. I tried search but didn't come up with anything pertinent. Any ideas? Harry. |

You will be prompted for the name and location for the file to be saved. The diagnostic information will be in that file. Good luck Ron Martell Duncan B.C.

Ron: Works fine, but doesn't render any useful information for my case. It's back to the drawing board. Eventually I'll get to the root of my problem. Thanks. Harry.

Let me correct that, Ron: I did find the information needed after first overlooking it. A number of CLSID Keys are missing in the registry. It seems that PC Bug Doctor could solve my problems, but they ask for quite a bit of money beyond the "free fix". Is there a free or less expensive program of equal capacity out there? Hoping there would be. Harry. "webster72n" wrote in message ... Ron: Works fine, but doesn't render any useful information for my case. It's back to the drawing board.

Colour me *blonde*.......but how on earth will PC Bug Doctor replace missing
CLSID Keys in your Registry? I thought the aim of these sort of programs was to take OUT the ones that you didn't need....not put in the ones that you did. OTOH, I wouldn't go near one of these *pay once we find problems.....and we guarantee we WILL find problems, even if there aren't any* programs. Doubting Thomas "webster72n" wrote in message ...

Hoping there would be. 1. Make sure you know all of your network configuration settings, especially any values that you may have set up for tcp/ip (ports, DNS, etc). 2. Open Control Panel - Networks and remove everything except the hardware network adapter entry. Shut down and restart the computer. 3. Open Control Panel - Networks and reconfigure all of your network protocols, services, etc. that you removed in step 1. You can omit any items that you may not actually need, such as possibly IPX/SPX protocol, client for Novell networks, and so forth. You will be requested to reboot after this is complete. That should reinstall everything and put off the *necessary* registry entries in place. Good luck Ron Martell Duncan B.C.

Ron:
Now that makes a lot of sense and should also take care of my logon problem. Will let you know as soon as I complete the task. Thanks a million, Ron. Harry. "Ron Martell" wrote in message ...

Ron: I executed your given instructions, but came up empty, I'm sorry to say. Nevertheless your contribution is very much appreciated. Thanks. Harry. "Ron Martell" wrote in message ...
