Another user solved this problem earlier today in thread615-594487. Solution was as follows: ".... I made another XP network disk per the instructions and kept rerunning it on the machines that didn't work properly. They're all singing and happy now. ......" good luck

Check for video driver updates.

Sounds like a problem with the programming of Autocad 2002. Specifically it looks like the programmers did not provide error handling routines for an exception condition that is occurring, (assuming this is an XP version of the program). Check for updates to the Autocad program or report the...

Check here for everything you could ever want to know about CDR's. http://www.cdrfaq.org/ Good luck ...wee

That's not a common problem and I doubt it's coincidence that it's now happening on a different system. Were any components moved to the new system from the old? A friend once had a MAC system with an odd problem and the vendor gave him a brand new system to replace it....same problem. He had...

Thanks. I assume checking to see if it's keeping the correct date/time between poweroff's is the only test. And yes, she did restore the default BIOS settings and saved/exited the first time it happened. Since then she has just been exiting. Thanks again. ...wee

I have a client who powered off her IBM Thinkpad when it froze. Since then she is prompted to enter F1 to enter the IBM BIOS setup utility every time she starts the system. She has to enter and exit setup before it will continune on to start Windows. Everything appears normal after that until...

Sounds like poorly seated cables. Try reseating them, at BOTH ends. Your hard drive should have a label on it that gives the CYL/HEADS/SECTORS info which you can manually type into the BIOS setup panel. I have 2 drives in my system, one which is found automatically, the other I have to enter...

The text is definitely in the HTML source. I use copy-paste to take the text from the message and insert it in the rule, just to make sure I don't make any typo's or miss something. I notice that the text is in the cells of a table. Could that be the reason it's not found?

I'm attempting to use Outlook 2000 rules to manage incoming SPAM messages. I've setup a rule to check for certain verbage in the body of the message but if the message is in HTML format it doesn't see it. Is this a limitation of the rules or is there a way to see HTML text? Thanks

Since replacing a system and upgrading the O/S from Win95 to WinME my client is having problems copying 123 files. He's running Lotus Smartsuite Millenium Edition and using drag-and-drop to copy files to a temporary directory for subsequent backup. Some of the files loose the 123 icon when he...

Sounds like a UMAX SCSI scanner. There have been problems with the drivers for these devices, most often on systems with USB ports. Although the symptoms are not exactly the same as the for the problems I have worked on you might want to update the drivers anyways. Pay particular attention to...

Sounds similar to a problem I had recently with a corrupted Winsock2. I found it by installing Netscape which gave me a better message. Search for the title: "Netscape unable to create network socket connection" GL700 provides the correct answer. Another test you can do to see if...

Thanks anyways. The message was asking if she wanted to run debug so I said OK to check it out. The failing line of code looked like it should have worked so I disabled script checking in IE's advanced internet options and the problem went away. The problems she was having subsequent to...

Is there a source for determing the meaning of Runtime Error's? I have a client who is getting a Runtime Error 18 when trying to access her Yahoo address book. I have searched for that code without any results. My process in this case will be to upgrade her version of IE, assuming it is not...
