File 'REGDEF' not found
When firing up Windows ME, I get the above error
message: "File REGDEF not found". The system seems to work OK, but is the message important? Please reply to or to newsgroup. Thank you. |

File 'REGDEF' not found
It's probably the result of cleaning a virus infestation - try this
Start|Run type MSCONFIG click OK click on the Startup tab Click on Cleanup Click OK out, and reboot on request. See if that clears the problem. -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2004, Win9x) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.btinternet.com/~winnoel/millsrpch.htm Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's or http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/f.../Mar27pmvp.asp "John Atkinson" wrote in message ...

That's the report from MSCONFIG - what happened on the reboot?
If the error message is still there, then you need to go back into MSCONFIG and Uncheck the offending item(s). look here for instructions on how to clean up your startup axis, preventing unnecessary programs loading http://www.pacs-portal.co.uk/startup_content.php -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2004, Win9x) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.btinternet.com/~winnoel/millsrpch.htm Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's or http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/f.../Mar27pmvp.asp "J Atkinson (Mr)" wrote in message ...

writes That's the report from MSCONFIG - what happened on the reboot? The error message, reporting the absence of REGDEF came up again. No difference. If the error message is still there, then you need to go back into MSCONFIG and Uncheck the offending item(s). I can't see anything in MSCONFIG about REGDEF ... I don't even know what it is. I've also looked in the MSoft Knowledge Base and that came up with nothing, as did Windows Help. look here for instructions on how to clean up your startup axis, preventing unnecessary programs loading http://www.pacs-portal.co.uk/startup_content.php -- J Atkinson (Mr) |

Let's start again on a different tack:
Check in Msconfig for any oddities. (Start-Run-MSCONFIG-Startup tab) If you cannot see anything in Msconfig then: Start-Run-msinfo32 Click the + beside Software Environment to expand. Click Startup Programs Ctrl+A to Select All, Ctrl+C to Copy. Paste that information in your message. ....Alan -- Alan Edwards, MS MVP W95/98 Systems http://dts-l.org/index.html In microsoft.public.windowsme.general, "John Atkinson" wrote: When firing up Windows ME, I get the above error message: "File REGDEF not found".

I can't see anything out of the ordinary there.
Can you try disabling a few at a time and rebooting until you narrow it down and report back? ....Alan -- Alan Edwards, MS MVP W95/98 Systems http://dts-l.org/index.html In microsoft.public.windowsme.general, "J Atkinson (Mr)" wrote: In message , Alan Edwards writes Let's start again on a different tack: Check in Msconfig for any oddities.

I should be able to ask Microsoft themselves as a purchaser of their product ... I'll send an email. Meanwhile, something else has appeared that puzzles me - I use Windows ME; on the bottom row of the screen is an item that says it is "UMBD v. 2.001_42". The title of the little screen is "UMSD". When I right-click on it and choose 'Close', it doesn't close. Does anyone know what it is and what is the 'Progress Information' all about? (As I write this, it isn't there; but I've seen it today. It comes and goes.) I strongly suspect that this, whatever it is, should not in fact be there ... maybe it's somehow connected with the 'REGDEF' problem? ...Alan -- J Atkinson (Mr) |
