OE:0028-BFF7850 problems 1

[jkjorg]

I receive blue screen error messages that require me to restart my computer. This happens when I'm logged on to IE 5.5. Also get occasional IEXPLORE error messages that knock me out of IE.
The two that I most recently received are. Windows Error: OE:0028-BF7850 and then later OE:0028-FFOE6880. I'm running WinME on a 800 Duron system with 256 ram. Have a 30gig hd with plenty of room.
What do you think?

You might try d/l'ing the new SP2 for IE5.5 from Microsoft. IE5.5 has some bugs that just plain need some help. SP2 was just released but IE6.0 is just a few weeks away now. Many of the tech newsletters I read have repeated that IE5.0 with SP2 was the least error prone. Hope this gets ya going. Obviously, since the problem is occuring in IE5.5, there is where the problem lies. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

Thanks for your help Vault. I went another direction and found in control panel under ad/remove programs that there was a place that allowed me to click on a request to repair Iexplorer errors. I cannot say it has cleared everthing up but the incidences of crashes have diminished. Incidentally what can I do about a lost product key number for my WIN98SE update CDROM?

jkjorg,

Grab it from the registry, here:

Backup the registry and/or export the following key, first.

Go to Start>Run, type regedit. Navigate to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
look in the right pane for ProductKey and ProductID
