quick restore c.d.
Using the quick Restore CD is likely
1) not to have repaired the defragger 2) to have broken System Restore - if it wasn't already broken 3) to have uninstalled all the other patches you installed from Windows Update lets fix SR first It's possible that you haven't installed the System Restore Patch - without which any current restore points are just space fillers. To check this, look for the file C:\Windows\System\SMGR.DLL - r-click on the file, and select Properties. What's the version number? - if it's v4.90.0.3003 then you have installed the patch, and we have to look elsewhere for the problem if it's v4.90.0.2533, then you need to install the patch. To install the patch, go here, and download the patch for offline install http://support.microsoft.com/default...;en-us;Q290700 Run the installer, and windows should reset System Restore at the same time, clearing your old restore points (which wouldn't have worked, anyhow), and creating a single new one. Then download Belarc Advisor from www.belarc.com and run it - post back with the list of broken patches that it'll show, and we'll work on them. post back with your results The virus scanner warning is possibly because either a) you had an anti-virus scanner installed when you used the CD b) you had the BIOS virus protection installed - which prevent changes to the Master Boot Record of the HD (not critical in this case, as you're reinstalling ME over itself) -- 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 "douglas crabb" wrote in message ... i have used the quick restore c,d, two times the last few days. i get an error message of an exception oe has occured at 0028; IT MAY BE POSSIBLE TO CONTINUE.
