Default 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.

When you start DXDIAG click on the "Save all information" button near
the bottom right of the opening screen. 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:

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.

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.

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:
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:
I executed your given instructions, but came up empty, I'm sorry to say.
Nevertheless your contribution is very much appreciated.
Thanks.

Harry.
