Not enough memory, it says...
Best of luck No panic or rush, sort out your family tasks first. I'll
try and keep an eye on this NG for any further posts whilst with the other trying to recover some lost images from a compact flash card. Grrrrrr. -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP Windows wrote: Up early, checking your mail before urgent family tasks. Have house guest to cater to, for short spell, but will try to install what obviously didn't install in my 98 installation plus upgrade to ME. As for viruses, my Norton System Works (run from Master HD) shows all clean. And will go Safe Mode to uninstall modem if its install actually worked. Thanks for your patience. |

I'll try and keep an eye on this NG for any further posts whilst with the other trying to recover some lost images from a compact flash card. Grrrrrr. Okay, progress of sorts. I managed to find where the check boxes are, for Resource Monitor, and checked it for installation, and then I couldn't find a way to get it to install. It put a C:\ something in the window; that didn't work. I tried my ME upgrade CD, gave it F:\ and let it browse, but it couldn't find it to install. Next visit over to the ME HD I'll make sure the modem is out of the way. And I'll try he check/uncheck/apply etcetera. I'll do the modem uninstall as I wait for advice on how to get Resource Monitor to 'take'. As for Norton System Works, be assured that it is not on the ME hard drive anyplace, and I don't go online on that ME system. Modem is 56K and only for FAXing out. But I use Norton from my Master XP system to scan all drives for viruses. Tell me when you can, and thanks for your patience. -- William B. Lurie |

I've absolutely no idea why you are running a command prompt (what you
call MS-DOS but it isn't) in Safe Mode. I know I made no reference to needing to do this in anything I've written to this thread up until now. Just about everything I try to do there asks for the Installation CD See my previous post where I describe what you need to do. Perhaps there's a way to do a "Repair Install" from the CD. Yes, but only if you want to effectively trash your system. :-( -- Mike Maltby wrote: wrote: Again, trying to follow instructions, progress of sorts. First, in Safe Mode, I am able to run MS-DOS.....doesn't ask for more memory. I get to Device Manager from SettingsControl Panel SystemDev. Mgr.... Now all traces of the Conexant modem have been removed, and all that shows is onboard 56K modem. I'm having trouble with DUN components. BTW, there's a lot there besides DUN, that I don't know what to do with. Just about everything I try to do there asks for the Installation CD but with or without my help, browsing to the CD I have doesn't do any good. I know that you're trying to back me off to a system that works, and then build from there back to all that I need. Perhaps there's a way to do a "Repair Install" from the CD. In any case, that's where I am. |

I made progress over in ME. I managed to find the folder that had the BASE2.CAB AND typed that in, and I believe it installed. When I went to AccessoriesSystem Tools, I found System Resource Meter there to be clicked on. I tried clicking it but nothing happened. Maybe it dumps it into a file. But that's where you said we'd learn about the 64K.... Now that I have the Resource Meter in the menu......what next? Bill L. -- William B. Lurie |

You're not having much luck are you! Try again. The Resource Meter minimises to the System Tray when started. It's the icon with the three bars which hopefully are all green but some may be red. Right click for details. -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP Windows wrote: Mike, I just test by clicking that icon, as a quick way to determine if I'm still in a "need more memory" mode. But enough of that.

And now, next sign of progress: I found it in the tray, and it had 3 green bars! I opened it to see details, and it reported 81%, 81%, and 92% free. What's my next step, Mike? Now you've uninstalled the modem and let Win Me redetect its drivers (you have done that I hope) and uninstalled and reinstalled DUN (you have done that I hope) then the next step is to try and use the modem. Before that though what does Dev.Man have to say about the modem? -- Mike Maltby |
