I have the same error message what was the solution you found? thanks, Mae The error message you are seeing when attempting to open Help & Support is probably the result of installing the recent KB911562 hotfix either via Automatic Update or from the Windows Update site. The following should fix the problem: Download and install MDAC 2.8 SP1 from http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...f/MDAC_TYP.EXE Check whether you can now access Help & Support. You should hopefully now be able to do this. Now visit the Windows Update site download and install KB911562 again.. Don't worry the patch for MDAC 2.8 SP1 has none of the problems associated with the patch for MDAC 2.8 which is I suspect the version you are running at present. Please post back and let us know how you got on. -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP Windows [2001-2006] |

Mart,
Well that error shouldn't hang the PC but perhaps it does in Safe Mode? Re-booting should certainly help as would knowing why the PC is now booting to Safe Mode. -- Mike Maltby Mart wrote: ... my PC hung.
