HOW do i get it to stop
When ever i start it up it will start up normally but as soon as i get to the
desktop and double click on like maby norton system works it will not load up in order for stuff to work i need to press CTRL+ALT+DEL then ESC after it loads up the task manager its kind of weird but i just want to know how to make it stop doing that i have tried all i can to make it so i do not have to do that but every time it starts up i have to do that. i have even tried to scan it with norton and that says there is no virus. so would you consider this to be normal or is there a way to fix it. maby this is the reason it has a 56MB ram but it system resorses are 87% free with 2GB left. |

"maby" is spelled MAYBE. 2. Dump Norton, it's garbage. 3. You can try to do a complete reinstall of Windows over the existing one. 4. If that doesn't solve the problem, save what's important onto CD/DVD-R's, wipe and partition the drive and reinstall everything. 5. Get a real A/V-anti-malware program(s) and do a scan and then make a backup (image) of the system partition (C). -- Lots of theoretical butchers are alleged and other bloody eyes are suitable, but will Pam secure that? |

This is not normal behavior. Does this only happen on the first program you try to open, or does it happen on all subsequent ones? Run Norton's Disk Doctor (set it to auto-fix, if you prefer) and then try its SpeedDisk. Hard to believe 56MB of ram, unless some is being used by the video card. Common ram sizes are 16,32,64,128,256,512,1GB and so on per stick. It could be that you have 64MB and the video (built-in) is using 8MB. If you have a large HDD and it only has 2GB free, that could cause problems. Even a 20GB HDD should have at least 2GB free. Buffalo |

Ah, did I miss something here... get what to stop??? Okay, MAYBE you meant how do I get my system to load programs properly. Likely issues may include: registry errors; DLL conflicts; and other which would require more information from you. Using the old CTRL/ALT/DEL/ESC routine usually means registry issues [that may include common/shared DLL entries as well]. However, it might also indicate issues related to your anti-virus program [checking the files as they are loaded or some other issue]. Norton System Works is an old program which had some issues in the later stages of the Win98 support cycle. We would also need information on versions of programs/applications GENERALLY. IF this is a recent development, you might want to think about and include/post any recent installations or upgrades done, such as to your browser or anti-virus. The point is, you didn't give us enough real and viable information to provide much help. *IS THIS AN OFFICIALLY UPDATED Win98 INSTALL or have you installed modified files or updates? -- ~ -- MEB http://peoplescounsel.org/ref/windows-main.htm Windows Diagnostics, Security, Networking http://peoplescounsel.org The *REAL WORLD* of Law, Justice, and Government _______ |
