Getting error " Error: OE : 0028 : FF03B779 " when installing Win
I just bought an Acer Asphire 3500 laptop and tried installing ME after
formatting the hard drive and I get the following error message: Error: OE : 0028 : FF03B779 This error ocurrs afterME searches for hardware and plug and play devices. The laptop is bare, and no other peripherals are attached to the laptop. What does this mean and what could be causing this. Thanks for the Help |

Wow it takes 3 days for MS support to answer this question. I guess they
don't care about the users with the old operating systems as they are too busy trying to make money off the new ones. Another good reason to switch to Linux.

Nope, this is a user group and the people who answer questions on their own time don't have software geared towards keeping track of which posts have been answered; sometimes you have to ask a few times; feel free to spend your time helping other people with their problems your 0028 error is most likely video or network related; try uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers. I guess they don't care about the users with the old operating systems as they are too busy trying to make money off the new ones. duh. Another good reason to switch to Linux. go for it. I'd be interested in hearing about any comparisons you want to make.

No Microsoft support here, if you want that you need to pick up your phone
and get out your credit card. These are peer to peer newsgroups where users help each other. There can be many reasons why no-one has answered your post. So let's kick off with a question, what operating system was installed when you bought the laptop. If not Win Me then it is quite possible that your hardware isn't suitable for use with Win Me. The error you are seeing is most likely a driver error of some sort, quite possibly video. At what stage during the installation do you see this error? If after the installation is complete can you boot to Safe Mode? -- Mike Maltby Xavier wrote: Wow it takes 3 days for MS support to answer this question.
